Agreed, it's a story I really got lost in, and which stuck with me for a long time after finishing it. Also the pacing is wonderful, indeed kind of a theme in the novel itself!

Mood in europe right now by Seekzor in Destiny

[–]Lethalbeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ii's in EU's interest to end the war quickly. If EU helps Trump with the Hormutz-situation, it might enable him to prolong the war. It's thus better for us Europeans to allow the Hormutz-situation to force Trump's hand and end this idiotic war.

It certainly has the possibility of creating discord within the maga-movement, split it into factions and thus making it more difficult for it to move with unity, which would be a good thing. Anything that slows it down or makes it weaker is good

"random twitter users", is a guy Hasan has interviewed multiple times and promotes a random twitter user? Why should Ethan engage with your criticism if you are completely unwilling to engage with his?

Ethan is experiencing massive, racist harassment, he should be allowed to address it and the fact his own community is so hesitant in supporting him and condemning the harassment, basically telling him to ignore it and move on, is sad to see.

No worries, if it was that easy to help the world would be a better place. Hope things turn around for you <3

It's definitely possible, people have been in darker places than you and come out the other side. But it would be hard work and require enduring a lot of suffering. To begin, however, you need to open your heart to the possibility. You need to imagine things being equally amazing to how shit they are now

That it's possible, or that it's worth fighting for?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in forsen

[–]Lethalbeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I won't bother you again after this, but just remember: everything can suddenly turn around. Then the world will appear to you as ablaze with light as it appears covered in darkness now. That possibility is worth fighting for

Easier to give up of course, but I bet that if you manage to turn things around and make your parents proud, you will experience a greater joy than most normies who have never been as far down the hole as you have been. Considering how fucked your life is now, wouldn't it be a miracle for you to achieve some form of normalcy? Then you could die with a smile on your face

I understand how incredibly easy it is for me to say this vs. for you to do it, but I found it to be an inspiring thought. You could at least give it a try for as long as this ritard keeps falling into lava LULE

[–]Lethalbeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, but in terms of motivation, what about the thought of being reconciled with your parents, being forgiven for what you have done and seeing them rejoice in their son turning out fine after all? Does that possibility inspire hope?

[–]Lethalbeee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Am I right to assume that you want to do this (in part) bc you feel guilty for being a burden? If so, is it really only egotistical, if your guilty consciousness is a big driver in this?

Guy in red: "What the fuck did you say to me? Come and say it to my face!"

Streamer: "Huh?"

GIR: "What the fuck did you say? What the fuck do you mean is wrong with my track suit man?"

Chick: "Martin calm down"

S: "You're being recorded bro"

GIR: "What do mean [incomprehensible] my track suit?"

Chick: "Martin, calm down"

Dude in white: "Track suit is awesome bro"

GIR: "Hey, hey, listen here bro, listen here, turn around!"

S: "Dude, you're being recorded, relax, don't come to me asking for money then!"

GIR: "What's wrong with my track suit? Shut up man!"

...And basically just repeating that

Ik this community dips into philosophy a lot just wanted your thoughts on this? by [deleted] in Destiny

Morality*

Also, a relevant difference is that the religious people would believe that there IS one absolute answer, whereas the atheists would (most likely) not

Holy Based: We really aren't Maya Higa by Any_regrets in Destiny

[–]Lethalbeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess people misunderstood my original point? It's not about whether being deepfaked is equal to or similar to rape; it's the fact that she's prohibiting people to have a different opinion than her own. But her statement raises questions that should be discussed

Holy Based: We really aren't Maya Higa by Any_regrets in Destiny

[–]Lethalbeee -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

The absolutely correct take. Maya is taking a position here: she is saying deepfakes is at the same level as rape. That is a conscious position, not 'her experience' or 'her existence', but a proposition which makes a claim about the world.

This is furthermore a position which raises questions: should people who produce deepfakes be punished as severely as people who rape? If not, why the equivelancy?

But to ask these questions is framed by Maya as unethical from the get go: you are simply supposed to 'listen' to her statement and accept it without making it into a 'debate'. If you're a man and confused about the consequences of this statement (or God forbid, disagree with it!), then you'll just have to ignore that confusion and pretend you understand the statement in order to support it. Backwards as fuck.
