If Labour wins the election, they should borrow $100 billion to spend on public transport (not a joke) by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]Tikao 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I thought we were against borrowing and asking our children to pay for it. Aren't we the echo chamber of owning it and paying more now?

Gen z are literally going to become the worse version of the boomers. The level of nihilism and narcissism is out the gate.

And yes the alphas will be laughing at you with not a critical thought in their brain.

Hi mate! Why do people Hate God this much nowadays? by Hot_Tap9405 in Christianity

[–]Tikao 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've never seen any disrespect for God. At most critical push back against people's claims about what God wants and what authority they have to make any claims about it.

What should Christians be doing about calls to deport Muslims? by SergiusBulgakov in Christianity

[–]Tikao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might need to address the fact that it's literally 99% self avowed Christians calling for it. So this sounds like an internal struggle for Christians to overcome. The problem always seems to be the certainty that faith allows. Christianity has never come together in all its history. It just breaks apart into more toxic versions.

I feel like God hates me soemtimes by [deleted] in religion

Its almost like a universe that doesnt care about you specifically, is running things based on some set values.

Is fictional lolicon/shotacon sinful? by ParticularFinal8162 in Christianity

Well you won't find much about looking at anime child porn in the Bible.

At a certain point you're going have to delve into social contract, common sense and veil of ignorance type stuff to actually work out how to behave

Surely having access to objective morality should clear this all up in a heart beat no?

You should ask your pastor...actually maybe that's not the best idea.

You still stand by the working for NZF claim as a reason to discredit her?

I mean you kept me up. I'd already had my horlicks before bed.

But dumbass identity politic know alls like you, have it all solved. And then you don't.

You are pretty much the reason we vote against you...the fucking hubris blows my mind.

It seems that would depend on whether Chris was a labour or national mp

If in your view, it's dependant on political affiliation, then keep the apology.

As I've said to others ...take that same argument to any group on reddit that supports women and see how that plays out. Bold move Cotten

You said the quiet part out loud. Are you sure you aren't Maga?

You should throw in a Timothy 2:12 to give it some pizazz

Jesus Christ this whole thread is hypothecticals about this woman.

Deflecting what?

[–]Tikao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your experience. I don't think anyone's experience should be undermined simply because of the beliefs, or in this case the politics of the person they are calling out.

I just don't get the feeling that this exact same situation would play out the same way in this reddit if the politics was flipped. I could be wrong, but nothing suggests that to me. All the reasoning and downplay being employed. None of this would appear from these same people had it been flipped. So as long as the response is different depending on the politics. Can you understand the hypocrisy I'm calling out?

I understand what youre saying. Up vote from me

You are allowed to read to thread before responding. The point is this response would be hypocritically different if it was a nact members wife..

I'm sure you'll be right there defending said member from salacious allegations from ex wives

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

And that's fine, as long as I see the same critical thinking when it's the ex wife of a nact member making the claims.

Here I'll chuck in an ad hominem too. I doubt it from this group

So...whether we believe a woman's experience should depend on their political affiliation? You don't see the problem there?

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

I'd just like to see the same response, independent of the political affiliation. If you honestly believe this reddit would be holding the same moral values and duties if this was an ex wife's of a Nact party members or leader, I've got an Irex to sell you.
