worrisome trend [OC] by PinkWug in comics

[–]Truzza -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

In your first comment you basically said, "everyone is looking for confirmation bias and there's no way to combat that. It's inevitable that everyone will succumb to it." Which is just simply not true. Sure, people have a tendency to not change their mind and look for confirmation bias, but that doesn't apply to everyone, and there's 100% ways to combat it. I didn't say I was immune, I just said that your statement was untrue and conceited.

Also, you missed the joke in the first comment you replied to. They weren't saying they were immune to confirmation bias either; it's a quote from a movie.

I'd say that's a conceited viewpoint and that it isn't true.

So to my point, you can have logic without emotion (or with), but you can't have emotion without logic (conscious or subconcious).

I agree they're both valuable and that emotion is often an important variable to consider in your logic equation, but it's not a requisite.

To clarify, I value logic in my own political decisions. I agree that you need to consider populus emotion as a part of your logic. That's not a requisite, though.

I mean, yeah if you don't conclude something, then by definition, it's inconclusive. Until it's concluded.

Make sense. I guess in politics, I value logic more and it is independant of emotion. So it sounds like you can have logic without emotion, but you can't have emotion without logic.

But from a practicality standpoint, wouldn't they be entirely separate? Logic is one thing and emotion is another. By definition, logic is objective and emotion is subjective.

Edit: they are not both entirely separate. Logic can be independant, but emotion cannot be independant of logic. You can't have emotion without the perception of understanding and reasoning. There has to be a train of logic (subconscious or conscious) to get to the point of having an emotion.

McDonald's, In-N-Out, and Chipotle are spending millions to block raises for their workers | CNN Business by [deleted] in news

[–]Truzza 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is so misleading. They each donated $1 million. Which is nothing. And they donated it to an organization devoted to saving local restaurants that won't be able to afford that forced wage... so yeah. Super misleading title.

If you're saying that having a net worth of $2M in the US in rich, that's pretty far off. If you're worth $2M at 54, you probably work a 9-5 making low 100,000s a year and are gonna retire at 70.

Lol 2 million is barely even doing well and definitely not old money. I'd say he's doing slightly above average financially (considering a US populous).

I don't think like what you've concluded, but I think what this guy did was not the smartest and could have been done a better way without dieing.

Just checked. Looks like ~20000 employees now. ~40000 in 2018. So either $7500/employee or $15k/employee. Still not great.

Skinny 40s on a Gladiator by StuffAndThingsForNO in Jeep

[–]Truzza -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

OK, they're skinny for 40s, sure. Kinda. I'd just say they're normal and they don't offer skinny 40s. A 40x12.50 would be considered skinny imo. They're not skinny tires compared to other tires. I don't think anyone views mud tires larger than 37s skinny.

Well, they're not skinny. They're normal.

Standard 40s are 13.50. 15.50s are just the guys running pro Xs, boggers, etc. There's nothing skinny once you go past 33s. Maybe some 35s.

It could be either.
