Also to add on, pretty sure sterilization is not a 100% success rate? Because of botched surgeries.

And with abstinence, we got Jesus, so…

Different person

So drag somehow thinks that believing in nothing is easier than believing in proven fact?

Drag is saying that depressed people should “just believe” which is much crazier than saying depressed people should “just believe in evidence”.

People do not need to believe in what drag is saying without evidence, because that evidence exists, so they can just as easily believe in it WITH evidence.

No? I’m depressed, too.

Let me do the same stupid shit drag just did.

Is that your advice to depressed people who think life is hopeless? Belief in things without having real evidence?

My point is that drag came to the wrong conclusion.

Drag doesn’t have to explain depression to me.

If Drag understood the evidence, then it sounds like the conclusion Drag should come to is not to baselessly believe in things without evidence, but rather to make a better use of context to rid dragself of blindness caused by anecdotal evidence.

Well, the problem with this line of thinking is that we do have empirical evidence that depressed people DO get better by making a huge effort to get better.

Drag had anecdotal evidence, which is incredibly weak evidence.

Drag may have had baseless belief in something and it worked out, but my point is, the evidence WAS available to support that point.

I guess the difference is that those of us that would argue with you would believe that you are reasonable individuals whereas, shocker, the genociders are not reasonable.

Go on, then, which part was false? Explain it slowly.

I think there is a term for this. The (insert name here) effect. You won’t leave because they’re there. They won’t leave because their audience is there.

You have less incentive to stay, really. What are you afraid of missing out on?

Idek the historical context or anything that’s going on in this situation right now, but your inability to see nuance and your insistent strawman is telling and exhausting.

Lmao so you’re straight up admitting to being an accelerationist. Glad we could get there together. You want things to get worse faster so that hopefully other people will rise up.

It feels like you don’t understand the logic somehow.

They said “if you don’t vote for athlete’s foot, you’ll get terminal cancer”

You said “if you do vote for athlete’s foot, you’ll later have to vote for terminal cancer”

Let’s say that your logic is correct.

What you are advocating for is… getting terminal cancer now… so you don’t have to vote to get it later…

Pretty fucking stupid take.

What would make you think that a PC wouldn’t also be able to do this for longer? Lol.

This post borders on sovcit levels of delusion.

Lol I despise people not knowing what a strawman is. Go back to english class.
