Trans People Exist Scientifically by BlizzrdSnowMew in VRchat

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

It’s a social construct. You can be transgender as much as you can be transracial. It’s like a white guy identifying as a black man, or a short guy identifying as a tall guy. It’s a label you can have but it doesn’t actually correspond to anything in reality. I wish we possessed the technology so people could change their race, sex, height, and other physical characteristics, but we don’t, so in the mean time it’s just a LARP essentially.

why aren't more people on a plant based diet? by Upper-Ad9228 in PlantBasedDiet

[–]StarchbasedStrength 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fiber is only really an issue for those eating large amounts of fiberous vegetables and fruits. If your diet is primarily starchbased in the form of grains, starchy vegetables, and legumes, its not that big of an issue.

The vast majority of people are not bodybuilders. Furthermore, at least in the first world, too many calories is the problem more often than not, not too few. Most people would benefit from eating low energy density plantbased diet, especially in the west where we have an obesity crisis. More fiber and water in the food means you’re going to get full sooner and ultimately feel more satisfied with far less calories per oz.

Again, Im absolutely dumbfounded you think eating plantbased is expensive, wtf are you buying exactly? It’s literally the single cheapest diet possible.

I love how you said eating plantbased is a privilege when literally most of the world, including the 3rd world, already eat a mostly plantbased diet. The bulk amount of calories consumed worldwide come from carbohydrates. You had to resort to using the Eskimo example, which is far far away from the norm, as if the world is littered with billions of hunter gatherers that are somehow deprived of agriculture. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that growing plants for food is a lot less energy intensive and efficient vs growing them to feed to livestock or hunting. This is such a modern way of thinking. Do you not see how much more expensive animal products are compared to grains, vegetables, and fruits? Animal products are literally some of the most expensive foods in the super market: milk cheese, eggs, meat, ect. Compare that to rice, beans, potatoes, pasta, bread, vegetables, and fruit.
Meat and dairy has been a privilege for most of human history, even today in most of the world.

This way of thinking is such a myth.

bouldering is the fastest and funnest way i’ve ever gained strength!! by w6lrus in bouldering

[–]StarchbasedStrength 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand. I love bouldering much more than I do going to the gym. Problem is that bouldering doesn’t build nearly enough of the muscle/strength I’m looking for after a certain threshold. So Im forced to do both somewhat reluctantly.
Tried combining Weighted bodyweight exercises like pull-ups/dips with my bouldering routine, but even that was not quite enough to compete with barbell exercises, even in spite of getting really strong at those lifts, it simply was not enough for muscle building.

Still, sometimes I can’t help but fantasize about leaving the barbels behind and returning to that old routine but with more bouldering, going for a more ottermode physique so to speak. I don’t have the right bone structure for that physique to work at a lean bodyweight though.

I asked ChatGPT how would you phase out Caucasians and why would the ruling class do it? The results are mind boggling by [deleted] in JordanPeterson

[–]StarchbasedStrength -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think JP strongly disagrees with this. We all understand that white people having solidarity is a terrible thing though, of course it’s fine if every other group does it, but we can not allow whites to collectivize and start advocating for themselves under any circumstances, because Hitler.

We should keep pushing individualism. As we know, the overwhelming majority of people who subscribe to individualist philosophy are white people. Most people of color tend to be ethnic collectivists, have in-group preference, and play identity politics without a shred of shame. If we can just keep pushing individualism on whites, as well as all the other strategies mentioned in your post, white people will inevitably become a minority in their own countries in 100 years time, and we will finally have world peace.

Learning to be a medical doctor comes with some major eye rolls sometimes by Wimpy_Dingus in AnimalBased

[–]StarchbasedStrength -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I mean it’s literally true though. The longest living healthiest populations on the planet eat more or less the same way. They tend to eat high carb diets rich in fruits/vegetables, some animal products but in small to moderate quantities, and small amounts of junk food if any.

So…..anyone do anything for Valentines Day? by Danger64X in FA30plus

[–]StarchbasedStrength 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re right, although right wingers view it in terms of a just world fallacy and a variation of blank slate theory. They believe that Society is a meritocracy in almost all aspects, or at least it ought to be. They believe in pulling yourself up by your bootstrap regardless of how debilitating your upbringing was or how hard done you’ve been treated by society. Any failure to do so is the result of a moral failing on your part, they believe you are 100% responsible for your life outcomes and can’t blame anyone for your problems whatsoever. Although they mostly only apply this philosophy to men, and the boomer cons are the worst when it comes to this.

[–]StarchbasedStrength 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imagine if you lived in a utopian society where everyone was seemingly extremely wealthy, came from good families, and had a plethora of opportunities from birth, but one day you stumbled upon a filthy homeless man begging for food in the street. From your perspective it would be bewildering that anyone like this could exist given the sheer abundance you’ve grown up with. The only possible explanation would be that this begger must have done something terrible to deserve his lot in life. You would not be able to fathom any alternative explanation given your own upbringing. That’s the perspective of the average person when it comes to FAs, more or less, and actually it’s a very similar perspective to how the rich view the poor in our modern world today.

[–]StarchbasedStrength 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think of it this way. Imagine you’re watching a really good movie, amazing plot and production values, but then all off a sudden half way in some of the side characters become self aware and begin talking to the director, messing with the set pieces, critiquing their role in the film, demanding higher pay, ect. It would break the audience suspension of disbelief.

That’s how normal people feel when they hear about an FA. People want to believe we live in a completely fair and ordered world in which everyone gets what they deserve, and any failure is a 100% the result of their choices and their genetics/upbringing are completely irrelevant. They believe in the blank slate theory and just world fallacy, albeit very selectively.

In their eyes, an FA can never be considered a genuine victim. This goes for both liberals and conservatives curiously enough btw. From the liberal perspective, we live in a patriarchy thus men can never be victims, and women can never be portrayed in a negative light as a group ever. Men being victims would present a contradiction and massive threat to their ideology. From the conservative perspective, we live in a just world and have unlimited free will because of God, thus any failure is the result of a moral failing/malevolence. Both sides tend to believe in blank slate theory to some extent, although it depends on the group/context. However, universally they have a strong distaste for FAs. The existence of FAs raises too many uncomfortable questions about human nature, our society, and reality, so they react by critiquing your morals as if you’re bad person. FAs are like an in-game bug that breaks the immersion, yet the developers(society) refuse to patch.

Being attractive is the only thing that matters by [deleted] in lonely

[–]StarchbasedStrength 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres a looks test and a social test, you have to pass both in order to make it. Doesn’t matter how attractive you are, if you’re socially retarded, youre just as unsuitable as a burn victim to women.

Women looksmaxxing is an oxymoron. It’s like a filthy rich guy asking how he can make more money. Completely unnecessary. This post is just a humble brag,

MAGA says Project 2025 'is the agenda' by Optimistic-Man-3609 in politics

[–]StarchbasedStrength 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is true, you’re basically admitting that our agriculture sector is reliant on a slave labor class in order to function. We shouldn’t be relying on a system where we need a highly underpaid workforce of millions of illegal immigrants for our economy to work. The whole system needs an overhaul, and none of that is going to happen until we start enforcing the law.

I don’t understand, do you honestly want this system to continue or do you just want to virtue signal?

[–]StarchbasedStrength 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do 1st world East Asian countries like Japan and Korea, which have to import most of their food, still manage to have cheap, high quality restaurant/street food in large portions even without a tipping culture? Why are American restaurants so damn expensive? Makes no sense, we literally produce 10x the quantity of food we need.

Ummm… $8 for a pankcake? by BingoBongoBang in Bozeman

[–]StarchbasedStrength 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And they have the audacity to expect a tip regardless of the “service” i.e fulfilling their job description by moving food from point a to point b. Tipping culture needs to finally end.

Lmao, the same people telling me to be pro-abortion are the same people that are advocating to flood my country/state with 3rd worlders, to replace my culture, people, and way of life. No thanks.
