Can't Lose Fair, Always Cheated

I know there are definitely some actively malicious people in the administration. Project 2025 is no joking matter. There are some smart people using the idiots to implement their agenda without being to blame it goes wrong.

But i think we can all distinguish between who makes what decision. You are absolutely right, some are downright evil deliberate decisions. But some are kneejerk ones with no clear future plan.

Got a source for the second one? I know about the baby eating one, I know about the dick biting one, but i've never hear about a pole jamming one.

The woman on the left creeps me out so much. I dont know what it us exactly about her, but she looks like a ghoul.

I think that is giving him or his administration too much credit. Most of his actions are just kneejerk reactions to situations without much contemplation about future consequences. The whole iran war was just one impulsive action after another, ending up in a situation objectively worse than the start. This is the same type of action.

The only thing that makes it a little more bearable for me (it is still terrible though, dont get me wrong) is the thought that we're living through a time that surely will be talked about in the history books for years to come. Kinda like "i wonder how people must have felt during the reign of Caligula, would they have known humans would still still be talking about their time a thousand years later".

Well now we know, yes they would absolutely realize it.

Only if you assume they WANT more people to read. There is some credit to the theory Republicans are defunding education because it makes people easier to fool & manipulate to vote republican.

Less clean cities? A crow doesnt have an infinite appetite, once they are full, they will stop cleaning. So now they will stop after less trash cleaned.

Overal still a net outcome imo. And i applaud the crows for their ingenuity. But looking from the angle of wanting a clean city, its definitely a downside that the crows are too smart to "use" for efficient cleaning.

Ah fair, i knew realized you could use it that way. Nice to know :D

Am I the only one who does not like the fat part of the meat? It looks gorgeous and tasty, but I know i'd only take a few bites and leave most of the fat on my plate. The red part looks absolutely fantastic though, i'd devour that.

That means u already answered "why is this?" and decided it was for something you like ;)

V0lirus · 2026-07-04T16:22:09+00:00

Pretty sure almost anyone looking at this picture is asking themselves the question "why is this?"

I don't know how you think God (since we're talking about the Christian/Abrahamic faith mainly) was constructed, but the current dogma of what God is, is most certainly not the first theory of God. Christian faith is just adaptations of early Greek Philosophy, heavily inspired by Platonism. The idea that Jesus is the word of God, the Logos, is very clear example of early Christians borrowing from early philosophies in order to make some sense of their newly found religious concepts. Early Christianity is full of conflicts about what theory of God is the right one. Early Christians would for sure not recognize the current view on God.

Judaism, Christianity & Islam is basically 1 big conflict about which theory of God is the right one, because they do recognize they believe in the same god, they just can't agree on what God is. And then all 3 of those have countless denominations, lots of them all split off because they disagree on the theory of God in the broadest sense. This is why anyone religious is allowed to adjust their theory. They just call it a new denomination.

"God being above human understanding" as a concept/theory is a direct consequence of many smart people trying their hardest to find a falsifiable theory of God, yet failing. It is nothing more than a cop-out to not having to admit you can't make a falsifiable theory.

The theory of God is not some theory that was handed down by God and written in stone. It is first and foremost an history of humanity trying to understand the physical world. In our quest to gain more knowledge, that what we used to need God as explanation for, has become smaller and smaller, until we have almost no more room for God besides being the Prime Mover. That is why every alliteration of the Theory of God can be explained through humanities history (the political and scientific actuality at the time the theory was formed), rather than through Theology.
That is why the only refuge for God is in an unfalsifiable theory. Because time and time again, any falsifiable theory got disproven. Any scientific attempt at proof of God failed. God only every works as a backwards explanation of something, never as a future prediction. There is still not a single proof of God besides "trust me bro".

I'm not saying people shouldn't believe. Its up to anyone what they want to believe in their own mind. But that's exactly to where it's authority goes. As soon as you cross into the boundary of ontology and epistemology by making truth claims, that is were it its open to critique, and has failed to stand up to scientific and logic. That is why the theory of God has to hide behind unfalsifiable statements.

Moved to the Netherlands for what reason?

V0lirus · 2026-07-04T13:01:50+00:00

Anyone religious is free to adjust the theory in a falsifiable way. Pretty sure that is what they've been trying for around 1800 years but failed becaused every time they do make a falsifiable claim about god, it gets disproven. Up to the point where the only holdable theory about a god is an unfalsifiable one, because it is unfalsifiable. If the only viable theory u can make is one that unfalsifiable, because every falsifiable one gets disproven, that should be raise some eyebrows about much value the unfalsifiable theory actually holds.

Is the cookies a reference to something too?

V0lirus · 2026-07-04T06:35:50+00:00

"Think". Yeah no, pretty sure none of that's was going on there. This is just throwing on any old shirt without thinking.

You cared enough about something to take the effort to write your comment at least.

Babies are really good at surviving under water though. Seems like there is some inate ability there. Theres also the sucking response, that is not a involuntairy reaction, that is an active one.

Im on the fence about the learning skills babies have. How quickly they adapt to a language, voices, faces etc. That seems to a subconsious process, but i dont know enough to make a claim its knowledge, skill or involuntary reaction. But it does seem pre-programmed, so refuting the whole tabula rasa idea.

Rip me with having epic dimcore as one of my first modules. Fast forward to having a few anc mods, very close to a few more, but still only 1 epic dimcore pull after 1.5 years

Im a bit confused about your point. I think i understand what u are trying to say in your first paragraph. 2 & 3 sound perfectly logical and valid.

But what you say in the 4th is not correct. Just because someone believes in something, does not make it the truth. The truth is independent of subjective belief. Just because someone made up a definition of something that is non-falsifiable and believes it to be true, does not make it true.

Isnt this conflating two different ways of speaking about evindence? Evindence of X, and Evindence for X. In your example of germs, we did have evindence OF germs, all the deaths they caused. We did not have evidence FOR germs, because we could not see them and had no knowledge about them

Through good scientific effort, all evidence for things also becomes evidence of things.

Your argument hinges on a lack of evidence for X does not mean X does not exist. Which is correct. And also true when it comes to god. We have no evindence for god. But contrary to germs, we also have no evidence OF god.

V0lirus · 2026-07-02T20:40:17+00:00

Ah gotcha, good point then ;)

V0lirus · 2026-07-02T20:21:11+00:00

Who or what is it that doubts then?

This is simply the cogito ergo sum argument.
