In recent years signs have increasingly pointed toward Canada becoming a Chinese beachhead on America's doorstep, and this is the clearest one yet. I'd honestly be okay with it just for the accompanying resource injections if I didn't think it was likely going to get us Ukrained

Many people desperately want there to be some sort of ultimate authority which they can appeal to on questions of truth, be it a person or a procedure. Fundamentally uncomfortable with the idea that they might have to win others over rather than win over others.
"i doubt it" is a perfectly reasonably position for any person to hold when presented with an unsupported claim every man is entitled to his priors https://t.co/HxIbSjw2WD

This mostly boils down to locus of control. When assigning responsibility for one's circumstances, the right looks from the inside out and the left from the outside in, and the former is markedly better for both improving one's circumstances and for one's overall mental health.
OK, not even sure where to begin with this one! But here's an attempt at a deeper dive at understanding why conservatives are so much happier than liberals. Mostly looking at how persistent the gap is in survey data rather than extrapolating too much.

Implied dilemma is a modern logical fallacy epidemic. Its a culmination of a few factors, including the conflation of a false dichotomy/dilemma with other fallacies like hasty generalization or non-sequitur. Its an instant gratification tool for the modern contrarian without a
There should be a name for this. It doesn't describe setting up a strawman, so it's not that, but it is a variety of confusion that's common enough to deserve a name.

Playing Hypnospace Outlaw on a lark and man, this is legitimately a work of historical art in terms of conveying what the late '90s/early 2000's internet was like.

What does "democracy" mean in this sentence?
Doug Ford is undermining judicial independence—plain and simple. Judges don’t exist to serve politicians. They uphold the law, not political agendas. They are independent for a reason—to protect our democracy from the whims of politicians. In Canada, we expect leaders to

Surprised they aren't called on this more often. Particularly whenever the topic of Canada "annexing" (read: being annexed by) the American west coast states comes up
@ChristianHeiens It's honestly even simpler than that. "progressive Canadian nationalism" is just Blue Tribe nationalism. Democrat nationalism. Our progressive urbanites desperately want to be Californians. They make gestures towards anti-Americanism, but it's really just anti-Red Americanism

I've stopped taking my medications, and I left my family because I know they made the radio signals come through the walls.
New paper: “Training a model to keep people chatting leads to 30% more user retention.” Do you see where this is going? THEN: "The best minds of my generation are thinking about how to make people click ads. That sucks.” NOW: “The best minds of my generation are thinking about

One ironic dynamic I think is at play here: We were all told while growing up that open-mindedness is a virtue. The NPCs teaching us this generally meant it as a euphemism for leftism, but many young men took it literally and wound up rejecting much of what they were taught.
Young men raised by rainbow feminists either cut their dicks off or become unfathomably based, and this is we are going to win.

the selection bottleneck isn't religion or political affiliation or IQ or income (though it correlates with all those things) the bottleneck is simulacra - how doggedly you pursue the thing itself, versus masturbating the drive for the thing (pictured: the bottleneck)
The AI generated OnlyFans workers are now scheduled to make more than thier human workers by 2026, displacing them by share numbers of 1000 to 1. This is one of the less sophisticated ones. The better ones NO ONE CAN TELL. The “industry”!is over.
