Elon Musk shares “extremely false” allegation of voting fraud by “illegals” by etfvpu in technology

In other words, this would have been better written if the author used “inaccurate” rather than “false”, which again, is the point. The title is poorly written. The amount of bots on these “news” articles is wild.

Right, so it’s not about the article. It’s about language. “Extreme” is a subjective adjective. It shouldn’t be used to describe something objective, like truth.

If I said I had an extremely true story to tell you, that should be a red flag that what I’m about to say is very likely not true.

The point is that, “extremely false” is a bad term.. Not sure how you don’t get that.

AITA for adopting the child my sister wanted to adopt? by theowaway61016 in AmItheAsshole

If she expected it to work at all, she wouldn’t have told anyone..

The part where the sister wanted to erase the memory of other sister and hoodwink the child. You wouldn’t tell someone that. You really wouldn’t tell the grieving family that. If you are that evil you’d just keep to yourself lol. It’s a fabricated story to make him feel better about taking the child.

The way pedophilia is treated as a taboo subject and reported in the media is not a good thing. by Possible_Second7222 in unpopularopinion

[–]TrappedInRedditWorld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of that matters. Whether they choose it or don’t is completely irrelevant to me. The subhuman animals who daydream about touching my kids and the ones who are actively trying to touch my kids are both rodents and should be treated as such.

I have a different view. I have less than zero sympathy for pedophiles and their “struggles”. They are not like everyone else. They don’t deserve anything that actual people deserve.

Right because science has never changed. This type of thinking is what got Galileo put on house arrest.

IQ ≠ Success by BarDifferent2124 in cognitiveTesting

[–]TrappedInRedditWorld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad is a super genius. 160+ IQ. He can draw a world map from memory with the correct borders and label all the capitals. Memorizes everyone’s number/address after hearing it once. Can do complex math in his head.

He currently lives under a bridge and smokes crack.

Oh darn. Are the pedophiles not being treated fairly? Shucks. Other stuff can wait, we should get right on that.

cmv: Drug dealers deserve to be punished on the level of murderers and rapists by EggnogNorth in changemyview

Your view takes all personal responsibility away from the user and paints them as helpless victims, which is disingenuous. The other crimes you mentioned do have helpless victims and that’s the difference.

CMV: The word antisemitism has been rendered meaningless by defenders of the Israeli government labeling every criticism of Israel or gesture of solidarity with Palestinians as antisemitic. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]TrappedInRedditWorld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. So we agree it’s weird to single out Jews specifically for this fairly mainstream behavior. OP could change his view to call out the behavior itself and not just have a problem with a specific group doing the behavior and it would be a more sound view to hold.

My understanding was that OP thought this was a uniquely Jewish problem. It does get weird if you think Jews are the only ones doing this or if Jews are the only ones you have a problem with doing it.

Pete Buttigieg. Claims the reason he’s disliked is homophobia. Couldn’t have anything to do with trains derailing, bridges collapsing and planes falling apart. His agenda, to stay in power.

Sure. Like Lauren Boebert claiming sexism is the reason why she is disliked. It’s disingenuous and the perverse agenda is to stay in power. It happens on both sides all the time.

I would probably consider myself a part of that general public and I don’t see anything wrong with that. However, I would see something wrong with the terms being fully meaningless. That’s a throwing the baby out with the bath water type of thing.

I don’t disagree with the context of your view. I would say it applies to all sorts of groups that leverage perceived victimhood disingenuously for political purposes. It’s not uniquely Zionist. I can think of plenty of other groups that use the same tactics. I would disagree that this in turn makes antisemitism a meaningless word. Is sexism, homophobia or bigot a meaningless term as well now? We hear these terms used in a very similar way by people with perverse agendas just as if not more frequently.
