  1. A women is someone who identifies with feminine traits more than masculine traits? >50% Feminine traits = female You could argue there are feminine men but I think they’re probably still more masculine than feminine overall. They could be 70M 30F when most men are 90M 10F. A 50/50 split would be non binary I’m thinking. I don’t really know, just throwing my thoughts.
  2. You feel like he's explaining something important to you but you have no idea what he's saying? How does that work?
  3. It feels like I can't exactly pinpoint the reason for why it isn't sentient tbh.
  4. Well, I found this content at 15 (18 now) and I think it fucked me in some ways. it's not like I've been psychologically scarred or anything even close to that but just that I wish I found about this stuff a little later in life. Pros and cons to everything, though.
  5. It's so weird, why you gotta deliver the deathblow like this. Just confront them in person unless you have good reason not to.
  6. Transmen can get pregnant. Therefore, men can get pregnant unless you believe that a transman != man.
  7. You're never not going to have to do shit that you don't enjoy, especially in highschool. You just have to deal with it, at least to an extent.
  8. Let's just not...
  9. Welp, you probably can't help your curiosity at this point. Just don't obsess over the advanced metaphysical content too much, watch older videos, take other perspectives, don't turn it into an ideology etc. This is stuff Leo already says in his videos but its easy to overlook. Although I guess this applies to every age group if you're just starting out on personal development.
  10. I feel like you should reward yourself at the end of a productive session/day. Watch a movie or something.
  11. I don’t understand why you’d make a general point using this one example though. Are most businesses gonna side with facism? And is calling Republican Party fascist even accurate? Feels like we're skipping a few steps.
  12. I mean, you have a look at her face and I think she still very much looks like your average hot chick lol.
  13. A conversation with Destiny could turn out really productive. He's super open minded and really good at steelmanning the opposing view. I don't think he puts a time limit on how long a convo can be too.
  14. Why would you read on socialism before the classical stuff taught in universities and such? It feels a little backwards to me. People (including myself) are clueless about how the economy functions in general, its not just socialism.
  15. It is though. You’ve been officially judged to have absolutely brain dead political takes lol. It honestly feels like quite a few people here deserve it but maybe it’s a bit much, idk.
  16. Relevant tweet from Elon Kinda simplistic but I think I agree with this take.
  17. Just bring in more wealthier and educated immigrants.

  19. Destiny had this article playing in the background in one of his streams https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/07/when-a-child-says-shes-trans/561749/ I think it's a pretty decent attempt to make sense of these issues

  21. @JonasVE12 That’s like 20 different things. I mean I’m not complaining but feels a little weird..
  22. You may have a completely different reaction if you watched the exchange in context. https://mobile.twitter.com/theblaze/status/1513975754782035979 Ben is an idiot, but this guy seems so immature it's ridiculous. Like, why would you do this if you've got better arguments?
  23. I mean, you can also consider loosening up a little and join in on the fun to some degree
