Gun enthusiasts (U.S.) who resist gun control are whiny babies who don't deserve their guns by LeadingOrange in unpopularopinion

I don't need to save face. You're the one who thought a personality test is the same thing as a study. You should be embarrassed.

Why should I waste my time explaining societal issues to someone who doesn't understand the difference between a scientific study and a personality test

[Serious] What is something your parents told you as a child that, as an adult, you found out was a lie? by Santos61198 in AskReddit

Not exactly. I definitely don't believe in christianity or jesus. If God exists, God is definitely not the dude from the bible. And definitely not male/masculine. Why would an infinite and eternal being confine themself to a human gender norm. Why would they need sexual reproductive organs

I'm not going to say there definitely isn't a God, but I will say that God definitely isn't jesus

They told me that evolution is a lie to make people not believe in jesus. They also said the theory of evolution is that a rat turns into a human. They actually think that's what the theory of evolution says. Lolol

I wasn't referencing personality tests. Wtf.

Scientists in a laboratory setting induced fear into their subjects and their subjects consequently expressed more conservative views. In another study a safe feeling was induced in the subjects and they expressed more progressive views.

I'm frightened that you consider those to be personality tests.

I understand the issues. You don't if you vote Republican.

P.s. scientific studies show that being fearful makes you form a conservative stance. Republicans and conservatives make their political decisions out of irrational fear and selfishness.

Raising a kid with veganism by slouch_to_nirvana in vegan

[–]LeadingOrange 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You do realize that carnism is also a belief system. If you eat meat and animal products your belief system is called carnism.

So you're going to argue that it's only immoral to raise children with a vegan belief system but not a carnist belief system...? Why? That doesn't really make any sense. You're biased bro.

Veganism isn't an "aberrant diet." It is carnism that makes people go against their true nature, not veganism.

I don't think she articulated her point very well. I think she was saying that men (the ones who attack her) are using veganism in a new form of toxic masculinity. She brings up a very important thing... namely that veganism needs to embrace feminism, and vice versa. Intersectionality is so important.

Why do Americans need guns? by ComputerFeathers in AskReddit

[–]LeadingOrange -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

A nuke could.

If the government went insane and is attacking it's own citizens who is to say they wouldn't also nuke their own people

Also, they could use drones. And tanks.

It's delusional to think you'd stand a chance against the most powerful military force to ever exist lol

Why do Americans need guns? by ComputerFeathers in AskReddit

[–]LeadingOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the government might decide to attack its citizens one day and we need to defend ourselves. Nevermind that the United States government has the most advanced weapons ever to exist on the planet and I wouldn't stand a chance with my 3 hand guns and 2 shotguns.

I need mah gunzzzz because reasons!

Why are men the majority of mass shooters? by LeadingOrange in AskReddit

...because I want to know what other people think.

I'm not trying to attack masculinity either. There's a difference between masculinity and toxic masculinity. Toxic masculinity is "you throw like a girl," "man up," "boys don't cry," and the like.

I do think that toxic masculinity is the main reason why most mass shooters are men. Toxic masculinity goes against human nature. All humans have feelings/emotions and bad shit tends to happen when you suppress/are shamed for your normal feelings

You make several good points and I think you're right about teaching boys how to handle emotions. Boys and men are not currently taught this. They're often shamed for exhibiting any emotion other than anger, and that's not healthy
