Hell, I look at a 20 year old human as immature and I'm just in my thirties!
Biological maturity does not equal getting the life experience of an adult. Not enough life experience means more naive and easier to manipulate, even if the older being doesn't want to.
That's some shit and you should judge people by their character instead of their age. I've known people in their fifties and sixties who were less mature than other people I've known in their twenties, and we're not dealing with developmental issues here.
Some people have gone through way too much shit by the time they hit twenty and have moved well past being "naive and easy to manipulate". I say this having been one and married another.
Maybe the real "immature kid" is the one making ageist judgements on people who really aren't that much younger than they are.
I can respect your position. Even if it is wrong :)
In more seriousness though I think we're about as close to agreeing as we'll get. Even if a third of the crew reacted to him as I suggested long term it's worth being part of the consideration.
It's always nice to have a respectful disagreement. Moreso on the Internet.
I don't think dead is really a fair term. For one of implies a finality that clearly wasn't the case. Even aside from that, when Spock was dead would it have been inappropriate to try and recover him? What if doing so would cost two more lives? What if he and someone else had been dead and recovering them would cost one life? The needs of the many and all that.
Your question is both fair and unfair. It's like asking when someone's death is no longer tragic. News of a child dying is generally referred to as a tragic event. Is it still when that person is 20?
Another factor to consider is how Tuvix's life would progress after declining. There's at least one obvious and one slightly less obvious bits that come immediately to mind. Imagine your among the crew and someone important to you was lost in such a transport accident. Can you honestly say you'd treat Tuvix the same after you found out he could have brought them back and declined to? Just from an ordinary person stand point that's already hard, but lets add in the other part.
How many people aboard Voyager, or any other Starfleet vessel, wouldn't lay down their life for two of their crew members, even if they didn't really know them directly? It's an even bigger issue for Voyager because they're stranded. After everything happens if it comes to a desperate situation, would you be sure Tuvix would do the same for you, or do you think you might worry if he'd be looking out just for himself. I'm not claiming such a thing is right or wrong, but it is human (and many other races) behavior. It's entirely possible Tuvix would have been spared only to be a pariah. At what point is it not worth it?
Even if there were any Republicans at fault, and obviously there can't be because they're always so great at their job of serving the American people. Even if there were bad ones they'd be the ones in other areas that I can't do anything about. Everyone I vote for is always the best candidate and does everything right.
I think the standard is that you can use the tools and options available to you to open in a new tab or window. If none of those are usable for you I'd have a hard time believing you can find the option you want buried in a settings menu.
And the rules, as Barbossa would tell you, are more like guidelines. Throw out the ones that hamper fun but take the time to understand which ones those are and why they do.
But no one here can tell you which those will be. They can be different at every table
Right click> select option works too. You have plenty of options that will already work for you. Just because you don't like them doesn't make it not accessible.
A worthwhile thing to keep in mind whether it's for tea, supplements, or whatever, is that medication is based on things that were observed from "natural" sources.
For example, willow bark was/is/has been used for pain and inflammation. It also contains salicin which is similar to acetysalicylic acid, which you'll know better as aspirin.
Does that mean all the things people say do a thing work? Not at all. Do some of them have varying degrees of effect of some percentage of people? Yes.
Except in this case others have already tried the same thing with results going from success to death. It's not unique but it is uncommon. This would speak against it as the "best way".
It's hard to convince someone bigoted against you to be your friend. If they won't be your friend the whole concept fails. This shouldn't need to be stated.
Often bigots closest friends are also bigots. Again causing issue. If one close friend points out your shortcomings but the others tell you they aren't shortcomings at all it's much easier to stick with your comfort zone, as it almost always is. Repeated efforts here cause a friendship to falter, which goes back to what was suggested in the first place, separation.
Friendship works on someone open to it working. Whether they already have that friend or not. You can't force someone to accept something they don't want to hear, which is probably the problem you're having accepting the flaws in your own point of view despite the ways they have been pointed out in other's comments.
From what I'd read in to, you're substituting "best way" for "most moral way" without considering that morality is not a standard. To many reducing harm to the masses is far more moral than making friends with bigots. They can, and must, choose to step outside their bigotry in order to leave it behind. Until then they can deal with being on the fringes.
You're getting downvoted because you seem to be falling to understand that that guy is exceptional in that he is an exception, not the norm.
You realize it wasn't that long ago that black people were hanged for as little as looking at a white person the wrong way at times, yes?
Being super nice isn't a reliable way to accomplish what he has.
Even if it is it's not an option for everyone. A white guy acting like this towards a KKK member isn't going to accomplish this. A Hispanic guy doing it is unlikely to change a racist's opinion on black people.
Your statements come off as Elon Musk telling people to work hard to be rich because it's happened before.
It may be a useful tool in some circumstances, but one guy, or even a handful of them, does not prove it's the "best way".
How many different ways do we have to say things in English?
Do Tamarians have poetry?
