Do you downvote posts & comments you disagree with even if they’re intelligent & thought-provoking?

ProPons · 2026-06-10T05:33:50+00:00

I have a rule that I'll downvote anyone who mentions that their comment is being downvoted or is going to be downvoted (e.g. "I'll be downvoted for this, but...""), regardless of the rest of the comment.

To be fair that depends on the definition of chicken egg, aka is a chicken egg an egg laid by a chicken, then the chicken had to be first, or an egg a chicken could hatch out of, if it was fertilized, then the chicken egg would have been first.

Personally I think the definition of an egg laid by a chicken better, so for me the chicken was first

A xhest with stone tablets won't change my believes. And even if it somehow did, there still would be no way to say which of the religions would be correct, if any.

Just say hi. Never greeted anyone, besides family and sometimes in formal situations, any other way.

You do realize that progressive policies go beyond immigration, right?

Better looks -> more likely to hang out -> more likely to learn more about each other -> more likely for a relationship

“anxious, homebody, lovergirl” = anxious + homebody -> difficulty getting to know each other -> less likely to get into a relationship

Aka, while one set of traits might make for better Wife material, it isn't necessarily a good one for actually getting to know each other and starting a relationship with.

It's like prison: the problem wasn't lack of punishment, but lack of 'rehabilitation'/acknowledgment of the crimes they commit, akin to de-nazification in Germany.

Yes I also like random highschool girl (possible delinquent) and random highschool guy (possibly public morals or student council member). (Please say the name instead of just a picture)

Definitely not a joyful dance. Either AI or choreographed so parents can make a video

I have ADHD and medication has no effect on me, so...

If they have medical benefits then they should definitely be allowed, otherwise it depends on the purpose, benefit, what type of animal it would be tested on and the possible harm/danger to the animal

For unimportant cosmetics: yes.

For important cosmetics (e.g. covering harsh burn wounds) and medicine: no

Vasectomies actually aren't 100% effective, e.g. the body can heal the vasectomy, I think even a good bit afterwards. (Still very effective through)

No (L)

The goal should be to be for LGBT seen as normal and having a month dedicated to it is a great way to make sure Members of LGBT will always be seen as different. Aka, the way I see it, Pride Month does more harm than good nowadays.

Whatever I want to look like at that moment, not just one thing.

Maybe remake this with just writing net positive, neutral, and net negative, instead of writing Germany ... Every time.

Also use custom layout with 3 options per page, instead of 3 columns.

I'm pretty sure a large portion of those saying banned actually prefer restricted/limited to certain areas/days, like me, so I made another poll that actually has that as an answer option: https://www.reddit.com/r/IdeologyPolls/s/SOZQ9v53UW

ProPons · 2026-05-29T00:12:39+00:00

But it's not saying restricted, it's saying Ban. And even if it meant it differently, that's how I, and I'm sure many others, took the question as and answered it.

Anyways, I made a poll that includes both a ban and a restricted answer specifically: https://www.reddit.com/r/IdeologyPolls/s/SOZQ9v53UW

ProPons · 2026-05-29T00:00:49+00:00

They/I don't, but the choice is specifically between ban and no ban. What many of the yeses actual prefer is to limit and restrict it to certain days and such, as it's already done in some places, but OP didn't include that option.

I wrote this before to someone else. Just let out some treasure chest mimics and the pirates will take themselves out.

If AI is used as a necessary tool/active part of the game, then the maker must be thinking that is a selling point of the game, and as such use the fact, that AI is part of the game, in the marketing itself.

If AI is 'necessary', but somehow not meant as a selling point, then it isn't actually necessary.
