The worst part about Destiny is how much of the metadebate showboating he does: “did you even read the ____?”… “he’s not answering the question!”… etc. these are bloodsport tactics to enrage the interlocutor and not tools of genuine debate.
I could literally watch a thousand clips of Norman calling destiny a moron.

Actually there’s a lot of bad things about destiny so idk if that’s the worst. It’s just incredibly grating as an audience member and I see how it affects his followers, turning them into more aggressive and less informative debaters. It’s gross, like nails on chalkboard.

quick summary of BS jobs actual argument:
- many people are working jobs they secretly feel should not exist, which causes psychological distress
- we seem to act as if it should be punished w low wages if your job seems fulfilling (ie. teachers)

You can look on the comments of Destiny’s twitter spats to see a small army of these dipshits who have been trained in the rhetorical art of making really bad points in ways that are likely to make their opponents annoyed.

It’s profoundly depressing that all of the energy that went into filesharing between 1999-2009 was then put (often directly) into crypto, which is now a decade in with no viable uses other than enriching early investors.

In fact, many people are actually lonely in part due to their admirable ethical commitments. It's sometimes a social liability to set social boundaries around abusers, or to "be political" around misogyny, racism, etc.
people frequently become *more* lonely when they decide to be better people.
So many abuse victims are incredibly lonely.
the OP is a result of just world fallacy. (esp since the loneliness "epidemic" is occurring across all genders)

I think the degrowth idea is that we empirically, from a large base of evidence, need to reduce energy use and material throughput in order to sustain human life on an ongoing basis. I think its also totally compatible with communal luxury.

sorry but if your hot take is that incinerating hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians was good for any reason, you're a monster
Hot take: the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were not only *absolutely* justified, but the fact that many people today think they weren't was a result of U.S. postwar propaganda downplaying the war crimes Japan committed so we could ally with them in the Korean War.

In 1962, Raymond Scott set out with a modest goal: He wanted to make music to soothe babies. He ended up using electronics and made a minimalist masterpiece that predates other music like it by years.
Before there was Kraftwerk, there was Soothing Sounds for Baby.
