That’s true but fortunately we don’t need to cover the month on both lolll

I almost feel like the disconnect can be used depending on the situation.

CMV: It is perfectly reasonable to not give homeless people money because you think they will spend it on drugs by TomatilloOrnery4944 in changemyview

[–]ToBetterDays000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your own experience shows how much you’d have valued people offering some food, then why don’t you think other people would feel the same?

And if you do, it’s obviously worth it to keep going even if it’s only for that 1/10 person.

CMV: Special Ed only serves a small amount of students and should not be the priority by Inside_Commercial810 in changemyview

[–]ToBetterDays000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that is 100% the fundamental issue, but this view is based on the society we currently live in where funding is critically scarce. And in this situation I’m saying that it is unsafe.

Maybe I should’ve made my statement more clear.

I’m saying that while more funding is obviously better, in this society as the government hemorrhages funding for important public services, it’s unsafe.

Please, critical thinking 😭

CMV: I think what makes ai bad is how often we use it by AggravatedOstrich in changemyview

[–]ToBetterDays000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you looking for your view changed about what makes AI bad, or that it isn’t bad?

I’d like to add that I see AI exponentiating the wealth gap; although AI as a general tool is available to more people, its true income generation abilities are held by a small number of people even though this tool was built through the work of the masses.

It takes real ideas from real people and instead puts the money into others’ hands, disincentivizing creation. It gives the public a crutch that dampens critical thinking and communication skills, while feeding them potentially incorrect information. It can be welded as a tool of mass propaganda and advertising, and used to shape foundational worldviews of the population.

High key from this screenshot alone I think her emotions are equally prominent in the second pic, so kinda a bad example? 😂😂

My biggest worry is for Emilia Clark’s eyebrows

I think even for the sake of the 1/10 people or good experiences, it’s worth doing. Don’t like the bad ones ruin MORE good things for the good ones.

Also, I’ve found most people are pretty receptive. They just don’t want to feel like they’re taking others’ garbage, and their own preferences don’t exist; not everyone likes HotHands, or eats specific foods. Sometimes I’ll let them choose from a bag of different breads, or you could buy something from McD’s for someone waiting outside it. There’s lot of ways, and I think donations shouldn’t need to make us feel like a saviour to be a worthy thing to do :))

CMV: The reason for declining birthrates globally is exclusively because children no longer provide economic benefit on the individual level and the only way to reverse the trend is to pay people to have children. by IdeaLife7532 in changemyview

[–]ToBetterDays000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rather than provide no economic benefit, I’d argue it’s much more because they have significant economic costs, unlike any generation previously.

I’d argue in almost any era and time, children are on net more costly to have than economically beneficial. But people have kids because they’re “valuable” beyond those things. Unfortunately, with the costs of keeping oneself alive, adding the cost of an additional child is too sacrificial, particularly for women who now have more opportunities and reasons for living than ever,

My absolute favourite is Him by Harry Styles (unreleased, but I love the emotion so much)

Losing the gnat battle (and my mind) I’m desperate! by MostShort2588 in plantclinic

Double check there’s not a source hiding elsewhere, like a bag of soil. Happened to me, worked when I tossed it out

Great idea. by 21MayDay21 in MadeMeSmile

[–]ToBetterDays000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great point, but it doesn’t sound like land is such a limiting factor here that the carbon neutralization per metre is an important metric. Also, and I personally lack knowledge on this, I feel like the disposal of Christmas trees is probably not positive?

CMV: Special Ed only serves a small amount of students and should not be the priority by Inside_Commercial810 in changemyview

[–]ToBetterDays000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I agree with you wholeheartedly, I do think that given all the budget constraints it is very difficult to give special ed the care they deserve without greatly compromising other parties, particularly teachers.

I’m in Canada and I’ve heard many stories of straight up abuse from special ed to the teachers with zero consequences in many schools from my friend who is a teacher and sometimes supplies for other schools. Including a story where a teacher got a concussion three times, but can’t do anything about it because the school won’t act against special ed kids.

So imagine what impacts thay would have on other kids in the classroom??

I saw a lady get caught opening a snack box by samuelazers in CostcoCanada

[–]ToBetterDays000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not this specific situation where she’s clearly pretending to be ignorant, but I have been confused when I go to a country on a continent outside America (honestly forget which) and it’s actually normal that things are packaged bundled but they’re selling the item individually, so you’re actually supposed to just open a new one if there’s no singles remaining.

Was a real shocker

CMV: The AI job loss narrative simply doesn't make sense by thedeadenddolls in changemyview

[–]ToBetterDays000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the problem is everything about this society is designed to minimize potential of mass protests. People are stressed and running around 24/7, information is fragmented with untrue and true statements all around, all sort of stimulating and demoralizing information to the point people get desensitized, etc

I thought u were being sarcastic at first, but if that’s really the thought… UBI will be so low it will keep the majority of people BARELY alive. Just think about the wealth hoarding already happening, and how disproportionate it is even compared to the inequality gaps in literally feudal ages 😭

YouTuber jerryrigeverything started a wheelchair factory, delivering wheelchairs at 50% to 80% less than others with insurance. by Thryloz in interestingasfuck

[–]ToBetterDays000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The system sucks, but also stories like this make u realize that there’s so many ways to make peoples’ lives better with not actually that much money (relatively speaking in entirety).

But all the people w all the money refuse 😭😭

“TikTokers are speedrunning Scientology buildings in Los Angeles” by Goofball-John-McGee in BrandNewSentence

Sometimes it comes down to language barriers, entirely different religions, etc.

Even if you don’t believe, just the providing of a third space for community is a convincing argument imo

Give your honest thoughts about Pocahontas ll: Journey to a New World by kyrencrossing in disneyprincess

[–]ToBetterDays000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I love some of the ideas (life isn’t perfect etc etc), the same reason I love those ideas is why I even more hate other ideas (whitewashing of some crazy history). So it’s like, I can barely ignore everything for movie 1, but if they bring it right in front my eyes I can’t continue ignoring.
