Yeah, we’ve known Musk is an utter moron for years now. He doesn’t need to keep proving it.

I’ve been gaming since the late 1970s, and have never considered any sort of cut off date. I just play what interests me (lately that’s been VR games in various genres).

I can’t imagine ever losing interest in new games or platforms, because there’s always a new experience out there and, for me at least, that’s the point. I can’t play everything, obviously, but I can prioritise my time where I think I’ll have the most fun.

His eyes are too close together and his nose is weirdly scrunched. Not too much, and it wouldn’t be an issue if he weren’t so ridiculously ugly on the inside.

I’ve seen plenty of people who aren’t conventionally attractive and who are beautiful people. But when you’re that ugly on the inside, your outward appearance becomes a symbol of your inward rot. He’s not conventionally attractive, but that’s nothing compared to the evil he brings to every interaction. That’s why he’s ugly.

I gave up on this conversation years ago.

Fine, for the sake of argument, I’m a liberal, because I don’t want to give you 45 extra minutes of my time in this comment section to try and explain the difference when I know you’ll ignore most of what I say anyhow, and derail us from the point I was actually trying to make. If I’m a liberal in your mind, so be it. My point stands.

We already have the technology to do this:

Groundbreaking technique makes skin transparent

No idea whether it would be safe for pregnancy, but you could probably stencil it on in flower or heart patterns, bedazzle the outline, ya know, really jazz it up.

Yes, it was written up back then. Which is a large reason why many more GenZers were raised without those toxic values, because their GenX parents actually read that shit.

So this upcoming generation are being called woke pussies for being raised with empathy and against the historical gender norms, and that’s causing the normal pendulum of conservative panic to swing society in the other direction right now.

If you’ve watched history happen and really read about it critically, this is all very predictable.

Also, toddlers make for amazing meat shields. Nobody can deny that. What sort of monster would shoot you in the head when there’s a toddler protecting it? That’s just simple logic.

There’s nothing wrong with relying on one another so long as we can, you know, rely on one another.

That’s the whole point of society and why we’ve been so successful as a species. Division is our only real weakness.

Yes, and many women are strict enforcers of the patriarchy, too. Boys are raised to deny their feelings by both parents, because both parents were raised that way, too. There’s a focus on hyper masculinity that hurts both men and women, and is perpetuated by both men and women. Society has been leaning away from that, but it’s caused a backlash that’s kinda hurting us right now. And some social media is amplifying it.

We’ll get past it, but it’s going to hurt for a while.

Oh, are we counting treasons again? I guess mid-century modern is actually a thing now. Good, it’s a nice aesthetic. Bell bottoms and protest, fuck yeah.

Maybe this time we can follow through, eh? We’ve seen what happens when we don’t.

That’s a really unhealthy colour. You should get that checked.

I tried out for that, but I couldn’t get the tonguing right. Took up violin, because fingering is just more natural to me.

Godammit Kevin.

He was raised by parents who made their money on slave labour in an apartheid state, sooooo…

Again, do you believe in leprechauns? How certain are you that mermaids don’t exist?

How dogmatic are you in your lack of a belief in mermaids? Or fairies? How much are you bending to the will of anti-Tinkerbell propaganda?

Do you hear how insane that sounds?

eta: you said:

Also the organization, dogma, and a sense of hierarchy in regards to authorities on atheism.

What authorities on atheism? What dogma? What organisation? Do you mean the clubs such as this comment section? There’s no central group or organisation. Atheism is the opposite of that. Your answer makes me think you don’t understand atheism at all.

If that’s the case, please ask me anything. I love answering questions. :)

You also said:

the amount of atheists who subscribe to the religion.

I’m not going into the rest of what was obviously wrong in the bits I cut off, but I’ll just stop you right there, lol.

I am a dumbass.

?

Sorry, not following you, I couldn’t actually care less what Richard fucking Dawkins thinks tbh.

How is it any different than claiming with near certainty that leprechauns aren’t real?

I’m nearly 100% certain leprechauns aren’t real. Is my disbelief in leprechauns a religious belief? I similarly don’t believe in the Greek or Roman or Egyptian gods. Is that a religious belief, too?

The Christian god is a positive claim, and my near 100% certainty it’s not real is not a ‘belief’ unless you’re operating from a baseline that assumes it’s true, which is not how anything works. Strong atheism is a strong unwillingness to believe anything for which there isn’t evidence. That’s the opposite of faith – faith being the belief in things without evidence.

Something about doors and arses.

He lost all credibility and relevance when he piled into the bigotry clown car. Atheism doesn’t have saints.

Well then at least have the decency to stay in your home, rather than subject us immunocompromised to another round of dodging a minefield of disease incubators.
