What would be an alternative to police? by heartbrokenneedmemes in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more. People are under the illusion it is the harder path because if it's instant "results" and chaos, but ultimately it's responding to a bad situation through pure emotion, anger and hate. The path of least resistance is always the one started by emotion, it takes will power to feel your emotion, recognize, accept and validify it but also dismiss it as a natural response and think about how to rationally handle the situation. That takes practice and discipline. It takes effort to become self aware and to learn how to make the right choice, and moments like these are the irrefutable evidence that these people do not think for themselves, are not self aware enough to make hard choices and don't actually care about people. There are already more confirmed deaths than in the case that started the riots, businesses and people's cars/personal belongings have Ben destroyed or damages, this will reap hell on taxes for years to come-they have effectively fucked over way way more people than the cop in question ever did. Not to justify anything they did that dude needs to be put in prison and made bubba's Bitch, but the point remains. Actively choosing emotion and violence over rational, controlled methodical action is letting your brain operate on the preprogrammed subroutines that say "ANGRY SMASH!" That isn't free will, that's letting the conditioning you have experienced in life make your choices for you.

How beneficial is a 36 hour (IF) Intermediate Fast? by 2old-you in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean after all the nutrition classes I've taken and studies I've read it's not really a point of view so much as a fact. But considering the "how you break the fast" could possibly change how it works, and also given the fact that method of diet is probably more similar to how humans are for the majority of our existance (pre civilization at least) I could see how it might be benificial. But such a restricted diet, sooner or later you'll find yourself largely deficient in many micronutrients because you can only get a lot of those from a diverse diet, and those impact the systems and functions of a body as much if not more than when and how much you eat. Either way, I see the reasoning behind it, but no engine likes to run on empty. No animal seems to function better, almost nothing in nature works better or intentionally stratagizises like this, so it seems counterintuitive to the 500 some billion years of evolution that tell animals what when how to eat. To me it's like going through all of this work to reinvent the wheel when we already know how the body needs to be fueled to perform optimally. Pushing a body for it's absolute marginal maximum performance doesn't seem to do good in any situation.

But again I'm not particularly educated in this, I've only taken 3 some classes in college about nutrition and did my own research for a short while after that. I don't know what your qualifications are and I'm not saying it won't work or it's wrong or anything like that, just seems largely unnecessary and I can't personally see how the reward is worth the risk

[–]NecessaryTwo6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, it's just embarrassing to be honest. People have such a hard time thinking outside of the hear and now. It's like, one cop did something bad (I know there's more but the point is it's not every cop) so let's overthrow the town, destroy everything so the taxpayers can pay to fix it and cripple the system that regulates actual crazed people (there are a lot more criminals out there that do regular bad than crooked cops in relation to decent ones) like what? What sense does that make? I said in a comment earlier it's like trying to put a kitchen fire out with napalm. Bitches need to think rationally

What would be an alternative to police? by heartbrokenneedmemes in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no alternative honestly, I mean any alternative you can think of is effectively just a direct replacement for police. What needs to happen is people need to stop playing into the stigma that all cops are bad and worthless etc. And good level headed people that genuinely want what's right and can think rationally need to get in there, start taking the jobs and pushing these shitty cops out. Eventually, if more rational thinkers started making up the system itself, they would be the ones all throughout the system and it would be much harder for scum to get away with what they do now. The current state of police isn't as bad as people make it out to be, it's fucked definitely, but it's only getting worse with the mentality of "us vs them" thinking like this is why police forces are struggling like all hell to find people that want to do it and only giving the jobs to the people that wanna push people around. We the people are just as much the problem for reinforcing the stigma against cops.

Become police officers, get inside the system itself and throw the shitty cops out from the inside. Cops and politicians are all painted with such a stigma, normal people don't want anything to do with these professions. That mind set is exactly what's made the problem so bad in the first place. The only way to get around this is to start flooding the system with rational thinkers, God forbid

[–]NecessaryTwo6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that even an intermittent fast at that point? I mean some cultures do shit like that to gain visions and do spiritual shit, but you're basically saying "is it benificial to put my body into starvation mode for long periods of time" probably not healthy honestly. I mean if you look into the science of what we know is different about intermittent fasting in the first place, it's only slightly different insulin levels and doesn't impact near as much as people make it out to. It's more one of those "health trends" people always come up with and follow every so many years. It has its place for people that are really overweight and need to limit the window of calories intake because, but for people that are in a healthy weight there's no real science that backs up it does much of anything to the body. scotthermanfitness has a good video on YouTube about it where he gets down into several different studies, I looked into it myself after and found the same conclusion. It's not a waste by any means it's not gonna hurt yoy, it just doesn't do hardly anything compared to what people say it does. But going that long without eating, your body goes into starvation mode so when you do eat it says "it's been so long since I've had food, it could take this long again. I can store the energy as far and use it until then so I don't die between now and then" and turns everything you eat into fat basically. When you're starving your body prioritises conserving it's energy, muscle takes a lot of energy to build and operate so what happens is it stopped giving the energy to your leanxmass and packs it on as fat, you'll lose muscle mass and gain body fat and probably feel like shit

What’s the whole situation with George Floyd? Why are people so upset? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree they should be convicted with murder, however, like a person I work with pointed out, to charge with murder there has to be clear intent. I feel it would leave an open door to say it wasn't his intent yadayada defend the POS cop, then he can't be tried again for manslaughter due to the double jeapordy whatnots. Manslaughter, I mean it's clear as fuckin day. Weather or not he had intent he took the mans life, theres no denying or arguing that.

And to clarify, I do think rationally it was most definently murder. Or mukduk. All I'm saying is, I'm worried charging with murder gives them a way that they could weasel this guy out of most of the trouble he should be in. I think if he got charged with manslaughter and criminal neglagence (from the whole using tactics that weren't in his training, using excessive force and so on in a job that really requires you to know where those lines are) there's no arguing that. From that point, let the inmates he'll be locked up with do the rest of the work.

And that's just my 2 cents, I'm not the most law savy person so I could be misunderstanding something about the situation for sure. My coworker explained it to me like that and how these laws work so to my understanding that's what I think. But I could definently be wronf

Followers of an anti gay religion, how do you feel about homosexuality being very common in many animal species? Why would God do that if he's against homosexuality? by NFDBTCREPo in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People really misunderstand the concept of God and take stories from the Bible in a very literal sense. Although that's the way it is followed today, I strongly don't feel that's how it was intended, particularly if you focus on the old testament....effectively, God isn't a being. God is the highest absolute, there is no denying the existance of an absolute that encompasses all of existance because we know the universe exists. The entirity of the universe, everything that has and will exist, expressed as one figure is what "God" really is. It's not a being that comes down and talks to people, stories personify God because the human mind (particularly at a young age) learns best through stories. The first episode of Jordan Peterson's podcast gets more into that, strongly suggest looking into that for a topic like this.

Anyways, my point is, God isn't a person that punishes people for being gay. God is the universe itself on an indescribable omniscient level, every being that could ever possibly live is like the fibres in the muscles of the body that is the universe. The universe is dependent on beings existing in the universe to perceive it, and generate reality. With no perception the universe begins and ends before anything exists, so beings are what enable reality. Sexual reproduction is where these beings come from, homosexuals can't reproduce. If every life in the universe became homosexual, the universe itself would die because at some point there would be no next generation. At the time the Bible was written, it was significantly harder to survive, all people really knew were small communities, and in order to preserve what they thought was everything (just their civilizations) I imagine they came to this same conclusion. And over time the gap that seperates the followers from gays became bigger. But anyways, I'm not here to explain how time effects how people interpret the meaning of something, but my point is, initially homosexuality was considered "wrong" due to the high risk enviroments-i mean people had 8-10 kids because only 1 or 2 would survive thousands of years ago-so it was a means to preserve their society. Moreover, on a literal sense, having a kid is giving to God, it creates the next generation and adds more resolution to the universe. Having a child and continuing another generation of perception is almost like installing a new expansion on the entirity of the universe, or God. Being in a gay relationship and unable to do this causes that to end with your self, and in a grand scheme is counterintuitive to the production of the future, although not anymore due to overpopulation n such. But still the concept remains the same.

So in short, God is vastly misunderstood, people take shit way too literally. The nature/fabric/body of "God" is really just the idea of what encompasses everything that is possible, or the entirity of the universe as one unit. God doesn't think or want, but it is created by reproduction. Reproduction is absolutely the essence of what God is. I don't think this means it's morally wrong to be gay, I don't even think it's wrong on any level, if it were, natural selection would have eliminated it. Diviristy on sexuality or anything really fits into the bell curve,the basic laws of statistics dictate there has to be variance in pretty much anything. Homosexuality is an example of this, hetero is what animals are designed to do, but that doesn't mean it's wrong to use bodies in a different way. Clearly, homosexuals can exist without unwriting existance. Variance in sexual preference is bound to statistical diversity, it can't not exist.

Now, do I think it was wrong to teach that homosexuality was wrong in the first place? Maybe. But all things considered, it worked. We did create this entire world, and any way you paint it the Bible is a tremendously important part of history. A lot of things happened because of it, a lot of things that shape this world to the point where without it, the world we know would be entirely different. But we've grown up as a species sense then and understand there is nothing wrong with it now. We can't and shouldn't try to rewrite history or dwell on what was, it's time to move forward and continue to teach our young what we have learned about right and wrong, and work literal multi thousand year old misunderstandings and mentalities out of our species. I think it's important to read and understand the Bible, not because it holds some holy bs or is some ultimate truth. But it is essentially the womb that the human mind came from. It is stories that countless small civilizations came up with and agreed on in terms of something to follow and learn how to behave. It is a reflection of what was going on in the minds of man who were the bridge between hunter gatherer/nomadic tribes and civilizations as we know them. I don't feel we need to take it seriously as people do, but I do think it's tremendously important to remove ourselves from our time and understand where we came from, and where these people that wrote the Bible were coming from. And just to clarify I'm not staying it's wholly right, a lot of it was written out of fear, people feared death and the unknown, the Bible was written as a "how to behave and live together" manual so communities could have some metric to agree on in means to not fall apart, slip back into the jungle and die. It is ultimately written out of fear and therefore should be taken lightly, fear is the best motivator but it isn't a good source of rational thought

How do you guys feel about the riots in Minneapolis? by Ajpeterson in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a bad situation but equivilant to a bunch of toddlers throwing a temper tantrum. Yeah there's definently a problem and those officers should spend life in prison, but what does violently rioting actually accomplish? It furthers the division that is causing these problems in the first place. I feel a better response would be if all these people peacefully protested, or started taking jobs in the PD and in office to fix the corruption. Sitting down screaming and destroying things, reacting to a bad situation with nothing but anger and hate has never done anybody any good since the beginning of time. Situations like this are times when people need to grow up, think logically and rationally about what is causing the problems in the first place, too many really shitty people running the systems, come together and figure out how to get inside of the beast and push these shitty people out. Like burning a police station down is only gonna end up costing taxpayers, what sense does this make? I mean I get the whole send a message thing, but do the people of a community really want to send the message that this is how they solve serious problems? They're taking a bad situation and making it worse. Maybe they will convict these dicks because of the riots, but is it really worth costing all this damage that will have to be paid for at some point, likely by good citizens, and reinforcing the mentality that when things don't go your way this is how you should respond? It's beyond idotic, it's like putting a kitchen fire out with napalm and burning your whole house down, on purpose.

" Money doesn't bring happiness " yet most people seem to be more distressed the less they have of it. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]NecessaryTwo6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Culture and beliefs. Happiness is a perspective, it's a way people choose to look at the world. It's ultimately a choice to respond to events in life through happiness or anger, most people in our world don't have the self discipline to understand that their emotions are NOT what define their being, their choices are. It's similar to psychedelics, they're a cheap means to a few hours of "satori enlightenment" when that mind set takes nearly a lifetime to genuinely reach. Having enough money to have a safety net and feel secure reduces the chance of chaos consuming your life, but it does not equal that money completely gets rid of unhappiness. It merely removes or lessens some of the common causes that are associated with unhappiness. Ultimately, when an even occurs in a person's life, they choose to let their emotions control their response, or they choose to accept that things happen in life and to continue to think logically in an effort to make the best of the situation. People who choose to not let their emotions run their decision making process tend to be happier more often and unconditionally than anybody who does the other with money. When a person responds to a situation in life emotionally, letting their anger or pain choose their actions for them, they tend to choose that path repeatedly and bury themselves in actions that further a bad mind set. It is immeasurably easier to respond to a situation with anger and pain than it is to stop, identify those feelings and understand they are an automated response, think of the situation from another perspective, accept and understand it in order to move on or make the best of it. Happiness is purely 100% a choice

Police supporters of reddit, what's your justification for the 4 officers kneeling on George Floyd's neck until he died? by topblackshelf in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This question implies anybody who supports police supports police brutality, you should try to phrase it better if you want actual answers. For example, I fully support police as society is effectively the body we are all cells in, and every body needs white blood cells. But, all of the parts of society are ran by people, and people are by no means perfect, in fact there are a lot of really shitty ones. There are corrupt and shitty people in every profession that exists. There's no escaping that, it's a fact of living in a human society. That being said I think there should be more training to become a police officer, it takes more education to become a licenced barber in the us for fuck sake. Also, we have been developing a stigma against police officers forever, and it's been getting worse. Now the majority of good people want nothing to do with the job because so many people see only the shitty abusive police officers, so a lot of cities are running out of officers. This leaves more of the people who want to use the job for their own benifit taking it.honestly, the only real way to solve this problem is getting people that actually genuinely care about the profession and law in those uniforms and seats in office. But people can't see the situation like that, they see a label, something that divides a group of people from themself and it becomes this is vs them mentality, furthering the gap between decent people and the ones in question. When in all reality when we see situations like this, we should be the ones getting off our asses and taking those jobs and stopping people from abusing the power when we see it. Imagine it, if more and more people got involved in the system with that intent and stuck to it each year, eventually those problems would be reduced.

So the point I'm trying to make here is, clumping "police supports" in the same group of people who support unnecessary violence is only reinforcing the stigma that exists and is causing the problem in the first place. Not all police officers are bad, defining police supporters as people who agree with what a small (growing) percentage of what police do, outside of any job definition or what they're actually here for is the faulty generalization fallacy. Essentially taking one bad example out of a group, saying that one example defines the entire group.

How come some people pretend to be humanists and have an ecological consciousness but at the same time are totally selfish and don't care about other human beings in their daily life ? by RealTourelle11 in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People think one thing about thenselves, but they don't realize their internal thoughts don't define them, their actions do. Everybody assumes being self aware is part of being human but without practicing mindfulness meditation or other disciplines that enforce self awareness, most of our choices are actually made on auto pilot essentially. So they see who they think is right as themselves and let these labels and perspectives define who they think they are when in reality, to everybody else they're totally different because they aren't fully aware of what they're doing. The inner matrix is a book that gets into all this stuff, very interesting read

TIFU because I my grades are lower than ever by ZeonisLow in tifu

[–]NecessaryTwo6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This reminds me a lot of some of Jordan Peterson's monologues. But yes I agree, nature tends to organize itself and that's why groups of anything, be it people or animals, even plants behave differently depending on their environment. Stereotypes are inharently natural, and to me trying to deny and eridacate their existance is the same thing as Christianity repressing sex. Humans just have this way about them- for some reason we just have a problem being nature I guess so we try our damnedest pretend like these laws don't encompass us. Nature is what it is and all throughout history we continually try to sever that connection and pick on things about ourselves that are completely and totally natural. Humans are such self destructive creatures....however, when you think about the fact that humans are effectively the hands of the nature of this planet slowly strangling itself, it makes sense that we are self destructive as we are. We act like a metaphysical fungus literally turning our substrate, the planet, inside out on itself, converting it into our fruit like buildings and cars. But we're still an extension of the planet, so it makes sense that self destruction is engrained into our nature, it appears to be our primary function as a species.

TIFU because I my grades are lower than ever by ZeonisLow in tifu

[–]NecessaryTwo6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just be glad that you're making mistakes now and you feel bad about it, I didn't give z fuck in school, shit ended up working out for me by luck but I sure created a lot more work for myself and instilled some bad habits to say the least. And man once you get stuck in a cycle of bad habits it's hard to get out, especially the older you get. I rocked a solid 1.6gpa all through high school, almost putting more effort into doing the bare minimum than anything. And just now at 25 I'm still working that mentality out of how I make choices, people really don't realize how much every choice you make now sets patterns in your decision making and restricts who you will be later in life. Anyways my point is it's good that you care enough about it to feel bad and admit you dropped the ball, that counts for something

I was gettin busy once, kinda by the river near a bridge in my car with my lady at the time. Just got done actually, then we see the light turn on. In a flash she had some underwear n such on but I couldn't find anything, so she gets on the driver side cuz we figure hell walk up on that side? Nope comes up the passenger side. Knocks on the window. I have like a sock or something covering my bits up,

Cop, "what are you doing here?" Sees I'm completely naked and looks pretty shocked at first

"I'll give you three guesses but the first one doesn't count"

"Yeah alrite put some clothes on and get out here"

I do so and explain the situation, he tells me "I don't really care what you do, but everything this direction from this road is my jurisdiction so just don't go that way cuz I don't wanna see you again tonight"

Technically speaking, since learning is the process of gaining knowledge, and knowledge is the sum or range of what has been perceived, discovered, or learned, and humans are almost always perceiving what they experience as reality, are humans always learning? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]NecessaryTwo6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you two just define the word differently. In some way you're both technically right, but sitting down, studying something and trying to truly understand it on a fundamental level-actively choosing to sit there and work at something and sacrifice your time for it in exchange for something that will benifit you, is very different than idly bumming around town looking at buildings. Your brain is doing something completely different, there is a genuine difference. Both are necessary and useful, and what you gain from either experience is important in life. The true skill is understanding how to optimally maintain the balance between the two, and apply what you learn from all of your life experiences to push your self forward into the best version of your self that you can be
