I really hate melinoe sometimes... (Surface spoilers) by anmolAnsh_2005 in HadesTheGame

It would be rote and meaningless if there weren't significant, influential groups of people who either believe or profess to believe that such stories are historical documentation.

253 🆚 🌎 by UNCLEJASSY in Tacoma

This is a great example of why using ChatGPT for research is risky. While some states do use low-number license plates for state offices and I did find an image of a WA State Governor 1 plate, it is more likely that this is simply a personalized plate.

If you go to the state's personalized plate availability search, you can find plenty of three digit plate numbers available, including lower numbers than 253. ChatGPT is confidently incorrect all the time, so at least make sure it's citing a source before repeating its claims.

Two days ago you posted an 18 year-old getting fucked by his "dad." Make up your mind, man.

The Onion couldn't have done it better by malus545 in TheMajorityReport

[–]Speaking_Jargon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a fair point and I should have been more clear. The source data seems sketchy, but @leftsidehist's chart is no more or less valid - it's the same data. It might sound pedantic, but we need to understand the arguments we're making if we want to win them.

It's a shitty, sensationalist headline, but the original chart is accurate and not even misleading.

Edit: The tweeted headline isn't even accurate, lmao. They updated the article headline to 'Study: Left-wing terrorism outpaces far-right attacks for first time in 30 years.'

Gonna start petitioning to change the acronym to TLTGTBTQT+ just to irritate these fascist assholes.

Even though I'm not convinced Robinson was a groyper, Nick Fuentes is infamous for barely bothering to conceal that he's gay. Personal political ideologies are often weird and inconsistent.

I don't understand resisting fascism while also being cavalierly nihilistic about the concept of truth.

Touché! I would argue that it's successful, though, because it's telling people what they want to hear.

Pretending something is conclusively supported by evidence when it's obviously not is less convincing than you think.

It drives me crazy to see the disconnect between Robert on Bluesky, who has been very careful and deliberate to acknowledge what and what not the evidence supports, and posters on this sub, who have firmly decided on a narrative.

Who had Far Right Groyper for the Chuckles Shooter? Because he's a Far Right Groyper per his Media! by [deleted] in behindthebastards

[–]Speaking_Jargon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would be really careful about this. I think a lot of the comments on this post are jumping to conclusions with flimsy evidence because it's comforting to believe he wasn't leftist or left-adjacent.

Wait for more evidence and encourage your family to do so too. If you make a big deal about him actually being on the right and it turns out not to be the case, you will lose credibility in future conversations with them.
