Eh, I don't really see an issue with it at my age, but I guess for younger people it could be bad. I'm in my 40s now, but aside from producing some data to be mined, I don't see how people knowing that hurts me.
I changed my mind about both religion and abortion in my mid 30s. All it took was more information and me stepping back to acknowledge some of my defenses were just my religion and I moving goal posts.
Still, with many other things that religion i always required repeatable proof, especially when I experienced it personally.
For example, I'm going to go a bit into details about an old online game, Final Fantasy 11. That game had several stats you balanced for nor.al attacks and for special build up attacks called weapon skills.
One Stat needed almost always for normal attacks was Accuracy. Now weapon skills could come in single or multi hit flavors, and people started using tools to figure out optimal stats for both. What they found is that the first hit of any weapon skill had a huge accuracy boost, while remaining hits did not.
So it was more optimal to not use accuracy in single hit weapon skills. Now an important caveat: 100% accuracy was hard coded as impossible. There was always a 5% miss rate, like with a d20 hitting 1. So 1 hit weaponskills missed 5% of the time mo matter what.
If you parsed the data over time, that would be obvious. However, to your own eyeballs and memories, you always remembered the full miss, and it would feel like you needed more accuracy. Data doesn't lie, but your feelings and memory do.
I learned from that that you can't just operate on what you feel is correct, you need to review the data to see what it says about the effects of your choices.
I learned how much having access to abortion helped poorer people, helped women,lowered crime, etc. So i changed my mind.
Organic may have. It gets people both on tge right and tge left, people who want more natural and less science/additives/pesticides, etc.
Often called woo woo stuff, it's generally alternative to mainstream stuff, and can be harmless, or could be Goop, Alex Jones stuff, anti modernity etc.
Vegans and environmentalists can also sometimes take those feelings to extremes also, though we should never blame the whole movement on that.
Her motivations to turning to fascism looks to have been at least helped by her passion for animal rights, as lots of people in Europe still tortured cats at the time and she kinda hated people for it.
God Awful Movies. They have other Podcasts too but I've mostly only listened to their comedy ones and not as much their serious ones. Citation Needed (not Citations Needed) is another comedy one from them, where they use mostly Wikipedia to research a subject poorly.
Makes her rich. She knows racism, as she's had to sue successfully in the past, but it's easier to get money this way. There's this podcast where atheists make fun of bad Religious movies (mostly Christian, with a few Jewish, Hindu, scientology, culty, and just plain weird Woo/conspiracy ones) and they are constantly surprised how bad they are yet still profitable.
They joke about just switching sides for the payout. Some people don't have enough standards to not do so.
A lot of people take humor as fact, either by not understanding it as satire or by thinking it's funny because it's true etc. So while a bit of a party pooper, I don't think some light correction is all that harmful.
As for colorism, the culture trends conservative. I don't mean strictly politically, which it probably does too, but as in don't act out and stick with traditional values. Due to that, white skin is generally considered better looking and proper, and there is a negative stereotype for darker skin.
They are similar to S Korea like this, and there is a sort of blatant implied racism towards dark skinned and especially black people in the culture. There is of course some fetishizing of dark skin too, but mainly in a fling but don't settle down kind of way.
Some younger people are of course bucking some of these trends, and I'm not quite up to date as stuff in my own country, but it's definitely still there. There are people who have given personal experiences, some positive, some definitely not.
Some people never heard. I see a lot of people accusing people of not listening, but for the first couple years I heard anything about Musk I didn't hear any negatives. I wasn't looking him up, I'd just see a joke or meme, and since I didn't care much I probably didn't even go into comments. I think the first real negative news I heard was the sub pedo incident.
Maybe the Model E Model 3 S3X thing, but at worst I considered that an immature joke and didn't think much further about it, nor heard anyway say anything seriously negative about it.
The white and pink thing? That's radish alright. It's similar to pink Ssam mu, which is very common in Korean BBQ, and has some tell tale signs in the pattern.
Nope, and at this point I don't feel like bothering. My life sucks for many reasons, but not having a partner is a pretty minor one. Many people's lives suck worse than mine as well.
My intent was not to actually complain too much about Socrates, but just use him as a more tolerable example. I generally agree with your opinion on who was in the wrong there, but part of my consideration was the reports that they knew he could flee and supposedly were OK with that, but he decided to stay on principle. Also the joke he made about them treating him like a hero for his punishment, probably not quite in good taste given the circumstances.
That aside, while I do agree with your last statement, there have also always been conmen, fame seekers, and less influential but more... annoying people throughout history, especially if they had nepotism or class differences in their side.
Eh, bards and other old actor types are kinda similar. They're doing public actions for fame and money. Wasn't Socrates also considered an asshole? Not that I'm equating these influencers to philosophers, but at the time the people considered him to be mocking their culture (religion). Not nearly as bad as mocking tragedies, but the idea of living off of attention, including being a troll, isn't new. It just usually resulted in much harsher consequences than the modern day, and usually paid less.
I can't tell my hours, because I left it open while doing other stuff, and overnight etc. Same with Ark. Both have 8k+ hourly, but FFXIV has more (but isn't in steam for me).
