Or maybe you should try engaging others in good faith instead of getting defensive someone challenged a notion that makes you feel superior to conservatives.

Come back when you're willing to. Blocked.

No, there are many brain changes involved with PTSD including the prefrontal cortex and the study clearly didn't take it into account.

I didn't even say anything about the amygdala. I said PTSD. Don't put words in my mouth.

That's a really reductive oversimplification of the situation.

How does it account for PTSD sufferers at all?

But does it more effectively keep houses warm in cold weather, and cool in hot?

I did. Fuck Reddit.

Fair. I guess fascist is just what humanity has come to call such things.

It's not the cause, it's the tactics. Throwing people in jail before they actually do anything is a classic hallmark of tyranny.

Found the guy who never made a meaningful sacrifice for what he believed in ever

No it won't. People will get it banned and they ought to.

Yes. I always have and always will because I always loved learning for its own sake.

Learning is what gets you through hard times when you don't know where your next meal is coming from.

Learning helps you get your next meal.

There is no hierarchy of needs. Your needs shift and change over time, and overlap most of the time.

Source: 40 years of life experience, survived abuse as a child and as an adult, escaped poverty and homelessness, and am now on track to return to college and own my own businesses, none of which would be possible without my education and desire to learn

Oh no, everyone else was, in fact, learning while you and the other whiners were either sleeping or smoking weed in the bathroom thinking they're above it all and that doing what everyone else was doing was beneath them.

The motivation problem isn't the school's fault, it's yours. You choose to not want to learn.

I will very likely have my own businesses and a college degree in the next few years, so yes. Financially I will likely be able to afford to.

Even if not, if for whatever reason I needed to go to another continent, yes, I absolutely would make the time to do it even if I had to go on leave.

I have too much self-respect not to and you all need to learn that you have to make sacrifices in order to have a better life.

Hahaha and people look at them as if they're a country to be emulated

We clearly need something better.

I honestly am just going to go back to making my own websites and using instant messengers again. User-centered control is the way the internet was intended to be used so it's time we went back to that sort of thing. Obviously relying on other people simply doesn't work.

You're likely avoiding the news subs, and in that case, good on you, keep doing it. They're horrible. I am legit trying to figure out why the apologists aren't getting banned. There was one I saw last night arguing that it was unfair that Danny Masterson got 30 years for raping two women while some football star only got like 5 years for killing someone in a DUI, that Masterson should've got off easy too. It's the dumbest, most petulant shit imaginable.

...Except for the mods and admins of whatever instance you use, and you can't even make your own because of the CSAM problem.

I think perhaps decentralizing the means of production would be a better path.

I have to admit, their propaganda game is on point

Pssh, if you think that's bad, try tussling with the rape and pedo apologists inundating .world and the other popular instances. Which you can't escape, because the popular instances overshadow every other. That's a very quick way to lose your faith in humanity.
