  1. The problem is not how people identify. The problem is exposing sexually immature people to sex. This by definition is minor abuse. What would you do if you knew I was showing porn to a 4-year-old? Certain themes demand mental and physical maturity to be properly developed. That's why we rate content. I'm no moralist. You can get into a 10-day alien orgy, and I would blink an eye at that information. I just don't think this helps people develop themselves properly. Understanding how concrete things work is the main purpose of childhood. Developing spatial notions, basic social notions, and physiological notions. Self-identity, and personality, demand maturity to be properly defined.
  2. You have never tasted natural orange juice?
  3. In most countries where guns are banned, you can cheaply and quickly get one. If you're a criminal, by definition, you don't care about laws, including the ones that outlaw weapons.
  4. I experienced different perspectives my whole life, but I only transcended to green through psychedelics. If you're particularly inclined to adopt the scientific worldview, it's very hard to go beyond it without some boundary-dissolving experiences. Your ego will try to prevent that the hardest it can, by the way.
  5. I taught myself design like this. I can 100% confirm this boosts creativity to an insane amount. The only problem I see in this statement is that math syntax is actually kinda hard to read if you don't know what the symbols mean.
  6. And one from my country:
  7. Will you boast about having sex with his mother next? Pointing out that you're overly invested in Tateism is just the general impression of people in this forum. Your defensiveness is telling a different story than your words.
  8. Yes. The US doesn't get to decide what's developed or not. That's the whole point of sovereignty. People have the right to rule their own countries.
  9. I could state something similar about the US. The modern west is the biggest is the largest empire in history.
  10. You can only precisely affirm this from inside the CCP. There's anti-communist propaganda, as much as there is communist propaganda. We are so removed from accurate descriptions of China that I cannot trust anything people talk about it. I can only hope that this is sincere.
  11. Is she worth giving up every other person? That's the single point you should contemplate. No one can solve this for you.
  12. Building a wall will make it harder for working immigrants to try to immigrate successfully while doing close to nothing to criminals who already don't give a fuck about US laws.
  13. Please elaborate. I don't see the connection between body sovereignty and AIphobia.
  14. How do you do shadow work? I can't find resources on this easily.
  15. This has been politicalized before we had language. Politics is about power, and so is ownership.
  16. Sure, but it is part of being a responsible parent to supervise media consumption by children. Not only sex, but violence, horror movies, and drug use shouldn't be part of a 6 or 7-year-old child's repertoire. As they grow older to a pre-pubescent age, they should be informed about bodily changes and education on harassment prevention and reporting should be increased, problems of pornography and unprotected sex should also be informed. As puberty hits and develops, and with it sexual identity matures, you can talk in more detail about gender identity and sexual orientation. Children need to be children. Let them explore and incentivize them to figure out reality on their own. Both the binary gender paradox and the LBTQ+ perspective on gender are metaphysical constructions about part of our identities. And that part of our identities takes time to develop and shouldn't be so heavily influenced by society's biases.
  17. This just increases the overall sexual obsession that fills our culture. Why are you teaching someone sexually immature about sex? Why don't we spend that energy to create the other socialization foundations that will lead to healthy exploration and discovery of sex and sexual identity when the time is due? If children do not feel sexual desire, why the need to discuss sexual preference? These things should be taught during puberty.
  18. I didn't feel negativity at all. My question was genuine curiosity.
  19. This is troublesome. Why are we focusing so much on the gender and sexual orientation of children? Why can't we let these questions naturally arise and deal with them as they do, instead of focusing so much on the different categories you can fit into? There comes a time when we naturally define our sexual identity and we seek the knowledge to handle this problem. I see no reason to constantly expose pre-pubescent children to so much unnecessary sexual information. Sexual education for children should be focused on abuse prevention. Sexual identity is a very delicate part of one's personality. It shouldn't be influenced like that.
  20. Bunny can't fathom that those two views can coexist in someone's perspective.
  21. This is some insight I needed. Been struggling with alcohol for some time. It's starting to affect my larger goals. Thank you for sharing
