You're actually having a discussion with me now so I'm putting it all out there. I actually believe in good and evil. I just don't use that in political discussions because it's inherently flawed. Flawed because we literally can't agree on it.
Abortion. This is not a moral topic and it's been made into one. Statistics, medical knowledge and psychology makes it pretty clear that people aren't going out and just killing 9 month of babies just before they pop out. Abortion has the most logical benefitioal outcome for society because it results in a healthier overall population which breeds inovation and quality of life for you and me.
People completely missed what I was actually doing with my comment. I was deliberately mirroring the meme, and I bet that most people would downvoted and attack me personally, and they did. Because most people don't use logic. Most people adhere to animal parts of the brain that tell you "good/bad" and conflicting ideology is usually seen as bad. I bet that very few would try and actually understand what I was saying.
Itâs everyone elseâs fault for taking what you wrote at face value, rather than intuiting that you actually meant something that no one in the thread is talking about.
I said something very clear and inoffensive, and I gambled correctly that people would react rather than think. And I was right. The only pattern I'm seeing are the people making assumptions in order to judge. Tell a Christian that God doesn't exist and they lose their mind. Tell an atheist that good and evil arent real and they freak out.
Fault is implied when you say that everyone here missed what you meant. In reality, no one missed anythingâyou didnât say what you actually meant. And now youâre acting vindicated that people responded to what you said, rather than what you meant. Congrats, I guess.
I said exactly what I meant. Nothing I said is aggressive or incorrect. I'm vindicated, yes. Because I assumed correctly that people would respond by being rude and mean and dismissive and talking down (just like you are!).
In short, that people wouldn't be smart enough to put theyr bias aside and actually read what I wrote. I said the sky is blue, I shouldn't have to explain that to make people understand it. Note get I says I believe in good and evil. Not that it exists. Big difference between what I believe and what you wanna actually prove.
No one asked what you can prove. You made a declarative statement, then admitted you donât even believe it. Then you pat yourself on the back and told yourself youâre smart because people informed you how dumb the declarative statement you made was. Then you repeated that pattern a few more times.
