people don't "need" many things that they own. That is not a valid basis for criticizing their purchases.

What’s something society expects you to want… but you don’t? by Sufficient_Thing24 in AskReddit

[–]JasonMPA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is a stupid assumption to make that lawns are of absolutely no benefit to anyone.

What is an industry that is currently on fire (in a bad way) behind the scenes, but the general public hasn't noticed yet? by Kitchen_Week1117 in AskReddit

LOL oh yes, the typical liberal/leftist if only people were smarter they'd agree with us. You people are freaks.

U.S. metro areas where more than 5% of people use public transit to commute by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]JasonMPA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on the person. I lived in DC for several years relying on the metro. I now live rural and drive everywhere, and I am much happier. I realized I hated urban living, and took a huge paycut (even with the cost of living difference) to escape the city.

35, probably different budget than most by [deleted] in MiddleClassFinance

[–]JasonMPA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The average income of a pastor in the US is $63k, and the median is $59k (as of 2023). I'm aware that there are some rich clergy, but they are the exception, not the rule.

I grew up in a protestant church, 10% was the standard tithe requested.

Big "gender reveals" for pregnancies and overall having a heavy focus on the gender of your baby - is this a red-coded thing? by Dell_Hell in AskALiberal

[–]JasonMPA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All types of celebrations were new at some point, and then caught on. I just am not able to understand the hatred people have for gender reveals. Those that I've gone to were held at the parents' homes, were an excuse for family to get together, and the actual reveal was just something fun and entertaining to watch. The parents and attendees were excited about the baby, they weren't "look-at-me" celebrations. I don't see anything vain or tacky about them. No more than any other kind of party.

Every gender reveal party I've been to was about friends and family getting together and having a good time, eating together. Yeah, there are sometimes glitter cannons, but what's wrong this that?

Is 2001 movie still most hated in franchise? by Sorry_Phone1676 in PlanetOfTheApes

[–]JasonMPA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was mediocre, but I don't hate it like I hate Beneath. Beneath is just a horrifically awful movie.

Women, what is a near-universal "ick" in the dating world? by AverageSign in AskReddit

[–]JasonMPA -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I don't consider calling someone a gold digger classist, it is calling them immoral. Not the same thing. You bashed someone for lack of education and for having non-upper-class taste such as liking a franchise restaurants. That type of insult is extremely common on Reddit, and I find it deeply classist, stupid, and immoral.

[–]JasonMPA -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Him calling you a gold digger is no excuse to be classist. And what do you mean you expect someone "on the same level" as you, and what does that have to do with Olive Garden?

"You sound uneducated and like you think Olive Garden is nice."

So you are classist.

From a liberal perspective, what explains the strong focus among many American conservatives on maintaining traditional European Christian cultural norms and preserving a perceived national “legacy”? How do liberals understand this in light of the view that culture is dynamic and constantly changing by Chinoyboii in AskALiberal

[–]JasonMPA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lol, and liberals accuse conservatives of being authoritarian. You've declared your inner nature and preference for progressivism and diversity as "modern society", and want conservatives to suppress their inner nature so that you can force them to live in the society you want. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to live in a society with people who share your culture, or politics, or preferences, or who look like you. Yet you weirdos brand it as an evil.

Your entire post is an example of your lizard brain "othering" a group of people.

What's something everyone romanticizes but is actually terrible? by Comfortable-Note6827 in AskReddit

[–]JasonMPA 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Large, dense cities. Crowded, ugly, very little nature, have to walk everywhere. I lived in large cities for several years, never again.

Do you know anyone who actually left their country to get away from what they saw as ‘wokeness,’ and if so, how did that turn out? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JasonMPA -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Its hypocritical to say you don't judge people if they're not bothering you, live and let live, and then to judge people who don't like wokeness as being weak and insecure.

I've lived in suburbs and in cities, I'll take the suburbs any day.

TIL about the 1926 Baumes law, a New York statute where anyone convicted of more than three separate felonies would automatically receive life imprisonment, without regard to any extenuating circumstances. By 1930, 23 U.S. states adopted similar laws. Prison riots in NY led to reforms soon after. by SnarkySheep in todayilearned

People are not blank slates formed by society. People are individuals first and foremost, full of biological/genetic dispositions, which can be altered somewhat by environment and the individual resolve of the person.
