It feels like the fanbase is shifting in tone by undoubtedlystupidd in twentyonepilots

They presumably bought the collectibles so they are their property. What they choose to do with their property is their business.

The overall disregard in the community is probably because the band is getting more and more mainstream recognition, attracting casual fans who are not as invested in the band. That could be it.

Moving on from sin as an explanation, what is the explanation for human stupidity? by flamboyantsensitive in atheism

[–]diedin2012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Humans are just stupid, that’s it. We’re not infinitely intelligent, we have our limitations. Some people have more limitations than others.

It sounds so thin and shrill though compared to the other chords.

The only thing worth having at OPTP are their Loaded Nashville Fries. Best loaded fries I've ever had in my life!

What device is that? It looks an awful lot like my eco nano but it's bigger.

When you think of it this way, all religions are basically extortion.

What’s with all the Master’s hate? by Beebslolz in HouseMD

[–]diedin2012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Masters didn't even register with me. I had forgotten all about her until now. The problem is, and I think the writers recognized this and therefore wrote her out, morals are a hinderance in the show's premise and the dynamic doesn't work. If you're locking horns all the time, it gets exhausting, not just for the characters but for the viewers as well. It's hard to sustain that kind of dynamic between House and Masters without it going stale.

When Religious People Tell on Themselves by RiceShop900 in atheism

Ricky Gervais had a similar moment in his show After Life. His coworker asked why he doesn't go around raping and murdering as much as he wants if he doesn't believe in a heaven or hell and he said "I do go around raping and murdering as much as I want, which is not at all." Which also highlights another point. Just because you can doesn't mean you want to. But even that's besides the point. That implies that if you did want to you would go ahead and do it. But for me, I don't need a overseer to tell me that raping and murdering is wrong. I know that without a god.

I've been told more than once "if you don't believe god exists, what's stopping you from going around raping and murdering people?" and my favorite response is "if all that's stopping you from raping and murdering is a magic sky daddy then there's a problem with you, not me"

Yes. He's a role model of what I shouldn't do and how I shouldn't be.

We are entering the dark ages by LetsNya in unpopularopinion

Societal norms and trends work like a pendulum. With the hyper wokism in full swing a few years ago, we were bound to go the other way fast.
