It's more of a thought experiment than something I'm seriously considering. It's an good question though. What if your morals are bullshit? Then what? Why not just be evil? What is wrong with it exactly?

You shouldn't outsource your thinking in general. ChatGPT is good for making general statements which you can then use to launch further research. The fact that it can seamlessly comment on any niche topic make it uniquely useful as a tool. -
One day politicians will all look like this:
-
A neat compromise if law can't be taught in school is free resources/counceling for navigating legal matters, maybe like some AI thing.
-
The golden rule is more an ethical/behavioral standard. It doesn't say anything about making friends. You can be an asshole and still make plenty of friends and breed plenty.

I think school shootings as a concept proliferates itself culturally within the US. Bullying isn't unique to America but school shootings are. It reminds me of those African tribes that lived in peace until they learned of the concept of war. Then they started wiping each other out. They literally didn't know that violence was an option until someone told them. Considering that school shootings didn't happen till the 90s yet guns being ubiquitious long before makes me think something similair is happening in the US. Gun control will be a cornerstone of combating mass shootings like this. -

Its a form of lashing out due to bullying. There's no real grand plan. If you have a grand plan you don't throw yourself into the meat grinder in a loud and bombastic way. You recruit others to throw their lives away and/or use bombs. -
Is altruism inherently more truthful? Its essentially just a different kind of self-bias if you think about it. Many vegans feel sorry for animals just because they are cute and tend to prioritize inividual welfare over collectives, like for example releasing mink into the wild. Those same mink then end up destroying the ecosystem, driving multiple bird species into extinction. Compassion can get really stupid and untruthful and by that extent many vegans are stupid. I argue that vegans prioritize their ideals over truth.

Slave to your passions, right?

America has so many low hanging fruits that would improve society massively. Reducing the access to guns is proven to positively effect the amount of gun violence, obviously if you can't access it you can't use it. -

Because she's insane. Im curious though how womens prison will treat her. I know in mens prison school shooters get treated terribly and they often have to be isolated from the wider population for their own safety. -
Its okay. We're all a little schizo here.

What is the number one thing repeated in all male suicide notes? "Useless". Men need to feel useful like how women need to feel included. If not they can't survive or reproduce. Its the only thing Andrew Tate is right about.

Because its the most accessible form of dating. You just install an app. Its more interesting to see what the success rate is for dating apps.

That's so oppressive though. Don't desire to just dress authentically? Its a shame to hear beauty being squandered like that.
-
Yeah, the implication of the previous guy is crazy. As if society would fall apart if men had more access to cheap sex.
-
Some people like a bit of trouble.

That is what is happening right now. Europe, especially France and Poland, is happy to fight Russia not to mention Ukraine's resolve. So what is your point exactly?
-
Its a contributing factor but not the sole one. Bad geography is way more pertinent today.

He adds a lot of hilarity to my life. I'm glad he won.

That's because she's a beautiful women and is biased in that sense. Teal doesn't have the final say of who has it worst so it doesn't really matter who she thinks does. Its not a competition anyway.
-
This one always cracks me up. You never see feminists fighting to work at an oil rig.
-
No one is saying that. There are just cons that come with the pros that people seem to rarely acknowledge or are aware of. There is a lot of asymmetry between men and women that isn't accounted for often in discussions.
-
A lot of guys don't care if their partner is compatible as long as they get to fuck. Its a moot point to a lot of guys from a purely male perspective.

The independent pornstar market that Only Fans created incentivize this kind of behavior. Its essentially just marketing. I don't really see the problem with it. I don't see there being any evidence of this being inherently ethical, like many conservatives complain about. and hey, someone had to cum break the record eventually.
