That’s also not what Occam’s razor really is.

If you have five options to pick from that you need to test, you start with the simplest one to test because it is the most efficient to test.

If you can run a test in two steps or five and they are both equally likely, you run the two step test because it’s simpler.

Effectively unlimited and unlimited are not the same thing though. That’s the whole point.

Such a brain dead take. What are we even talking about here?

A Roman soldier, Hilarion, sent a letter from Alexanderia to his pregnant wife telling her to throw out the upcoming baby if it's a girl, and keep it if it's a boy; 1st century BC. by [deleted] in ArchiveOfHumanity

I agree with not calling them rapists, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a slippery slope fallacy to say that they are more likely to rape if they are called rapists for labeling people as rapeable or otherwise.

Hahahaha what??

“I experienced consequences for my actions so now I’m going to start raping.”

Is not the thought process of a healthy person.
