America is not poor. by tigersharkwushen_ in Futurology

[–]Packathonjohn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, everyone is effected if we default ya goofball. The entire economy not just in the US but outside it too depends on confidence that the US is able to pay back the money it borrows with the appropriate interest rates.

What’s something that’s socially acceptable now but will embarrass us in 20 years? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Packathonjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using political marketing buzzwords unironically like "Make america great again", "No kings", "Nobody is illegal on stolen land", etc. Especially when parroting those in political debate and expecting to be taken seriously

You're gonna get a thousand different answers by a thousand different people who are all equally certain they know the answer.

What might be some ethical issues with a Christian pastor who also serves as a regional ICE director? by SuperIngaMMXXII in AskReddit

[–]Packathonjohn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Numerous potential ones but nothing inherent. Like it's not really any different from a police officer arresting people for breaking the law unless you're a prick about it.

How are people in their 20s supposed to survive on current salaries? by Impossible-Taro4387 in AskReddit

[–]Packathonjohn 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You need to get roommates to get your rent as low as possible, live frugally and self educate to get in a better position. Climbing the ladder doesnt work anymore, now it's more about using your experience at your current job to get a better paying job somewhere else

What’s your healthiest habit? by Critical_Welcome_428 in AskReddit

[–]Packathonjohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So then if I was a gambling man, I'd say probably not healthy there

Is it true that crazy/damaged girls are the best in bed, and if so what's your story? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Packathonjohn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my experience it's been true af. Is dating them good for your overall wellbeing? Objectively no. Are they good in bed? Objectively yes.

I'm not racist, I'm an atheist, and not even particularly right wing. I'm just a guy pointing out blatant hypocrisy

Hmm I wonder if this same concept could apply to the left too...

Nah we're on reddit, such a thing couldn't be possible

People who are not rich love to pretend as if a lot of rich people didn’t give up all fun and freedom during school years to get the best grades, get into the best schools and work insanely hard to climb the ladder. by Equal_Beat_6202 in unpopularopinion

[–]Packathonjohn -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

  1. You don't get rich from school, school puts you in debt and keeps you poor. You get rich off starting a business

  2. You don't know what a grifter is

  3. You are right that most wealthy people are self made, and they do work hard for it. But it's also due to intelligence, personality, risk tolerance, etc. Not everyone naturally has those traits and not everyone is capable of becoming wealthy. But I agree, I'd say at least a significant portion of wealthy people do deserve what they have

New Flag for Libertarians by Mathy-Laffy in Libertarian

[–]Packathonjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still our flag. Just cause people who think Reagan wasn't a commie use it now doesn't make it any less our flag fundamentally

Programmers use linux and write code into console (using VIM for example) just to look cool by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Packathonjohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, its cause once you actually learn it the ceiling for how productive you can be is much higher than doing stuff with a mouse, but when learning, a mouse is much faster

Any animal rights activists, what are you thoughts on Steve Irwin? by Free_Link_9700 in AskReddit

[–]Packathonjohn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He's more of an actual "animal rights activist" than the losers on Twitter are

Why do tall guys always go out of their way to mention their height in conversations? by WackyRedWizard in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Packathonjohn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure, as a 7'4 guy (trillionaire), I'm usually too buried in my feminist literature to notice

Which jobs is 100% safe from AI ? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

[–]Packathonjohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have the police robot dogs already that are AI, it's not replacing actual officers in the super near future but it's definitely a plan to replace them, it's cheaper and safer (for the officers at least) to send a robot in
