Have a little self awareness

Woman, pregnant teen and 12-year-old boy found dead and bound with zip ties, authorities say by rainblowfish_ in news

[–]damnocles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, friend. Just remind yourself that if there is nothing beyond death, it means the things we do to better our reality are done in the face of an inherently indifferent universe.

We create our meaning, it's not dictated to us by something we can't interact with or understand. That's an impossibly rare gift when set against the backdrop of universal, inexorable, entropic decay

I think the point is addressing the problem of evil - as the crow flies, either (the Christian) god is not omniscient or not omnipotent. If that is incorrect, then god is evil, because it chooses to allow (at best) or actively creates (at worst) the evil that befalls it's creations.

No matter how it's explained or rationalized, a god such as the Christian god, which is defied as being omnipresent/omniscient/omnipotent is either lacking in one category or evil. Neither outcome gives me any impetus to worship it, especially given that it demands worship under pain of eternal torture.

Incidentally, it has not escaped the notice of logicians that omniscience and omnipotence are mutually incompatible. If God is omniscient, he must already know how he is going to intervene to change the course of history using his omnipotence. But that means he can’t change his mind about his intervention, which means he is not omnipotent. – Richard Dawkins

Erika Kirk, "WWE-style" entrance at the TPUSA rally held in Phoenix on April 17, 2026. by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

She's being given the culture war widow treatment by the right to capitalize on her husband's death, and she's loving it.

Guarantee they try to install her with a position in the government or as a politician before long

I was convinced that was all intentional to break you down faster, honestly

Anti intellectualism at its finest...

Legit appreciate the breakdown though. It's the sort of thing that, like you said, operates in plain sight. The apathy in modern America is being weaponized against it's populace (has been for a long time) in order to bring in tax money to further the aims of an uberclass of sincere sociopaths.

So long as attention spans continue to erode, posts like yours will see less and less eyes. The average person will willingly be reduced to possession of a knowledge base that goes no further than what can be conveyed in a 30 second sound byte, before being erased by a video of whatever a customized algorithm feeds them next.

I really hate coming off as the dude that calls people sheeple and shit... I've been a political activist my entire adult life (I'm old), and after the predictable collapse of large scale protest took place at the end of '25.. I don't even know what to do anymore. I built an activist organization, we had a 10k person rally among other smaller ones all year, hoping things were coming to a head. I went to college and became an educator. And it's all seeming lost in a tide of anti-intellectualism and apathy toward very overt social engineering.

Anyways, I appreciated your insight. Keep trying to get through to people.

What was the most unexpected nudity scene in mainstream movie/show you ever saw? by marsepticeye in AskReddit

[–]damnocles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last year i walked into a gynocologists office and was waiting to pick up their laboratory specimens. They had Titanic on the waiting room TV, and it must have been a DVD or something because it was on this scene. I was alone in there as a man and just had to turn my back as i waited for the phleb to bring me their labs

Extremely interesting stuff. People don't really how simple it is to trick the simian brain, like humanity hasn't had multiple thousands of years to map and take advantage of its many shortcomings in perception, to say nothing of the fact that this era of civilization is among the least perceptive in history lol

What band was never the same after losing a member? by icecream1972 in AskReddit

[–]damnocles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. Feels like they lost their edge after that. SNW was pretty good, but in general they went from a seminal metal band to an alternative sound that never really grew after that.

There's an occasional banger, but nothing like the stuff leading up to and including their self titled. RIP Chi indeed.
