As long as it’s between two consenting adults I really don’t give a shit.

Nazi Germany as an example was a populist and nationalist movement that rose out of the austerity plan from WW1. Yes it is very much linked with fascism.

What we are experiencing in America and Canada right now is a rise in populism and nationalism which again is dragging fascism along on its heels. Again, they are all very much tied together.

Beyond that I’m not going to argue with someone with their head up their ass. History has proven again and again that Populism, Nationalism and Fascism are all similar and travel together repeatedly. Do they always? No.

Look at the example. See how in a Venn diagram they overlap?

I brought it up because the 3 overlap pretty consistently. If you have a rabid nationalistic, fascist or populist movement chances are it has symptoms of the other 2.

That is not to say that rampant nationalism means fascist. Populism doesn’t mean fascism to your example.

I can’t believe I have to explain this to someone but here we are.

Do you even math bro? Look up Venn Diagram examples.

If there was a Venn diagram, populism and nationalism and fascism all overlap beautifully.

I worry for my kids. I’m doing the best I can to keep the anger out of their hearts but Jesus Christ the world is so angry right now and they don’t know where to put it.

Rough times ahead and strongly recommend everyone keep those you care about close.

Wait until we vote in career politician and general asshat PP. We will be fucked in 2025.

I’ve had conversations with people about “how can you love the news so much? It’s so negative and depressing!”

The best I’ve explained it is first and foremost you need to understand and appreciate we are a deeply flawed creature and there’s a beauty in that. How could someone not love life for that? I am in a dingy alley having a tea right now I can smell garbage, I can hear the drone of the city around me, everything is stained. But if I look up the sky is beautiful and blue, cute girls are walking by, someone is smoking a flavoured cigar.

If you’re unwilling to appreciate it all, you will struggle on appreciating any of it. Happiness is what you make of the world around you and if you are not willing to be happy inside no external event will change that.

LOL.

As a Canadian, good fucking luck.

I saw a guy who didn’t just lose his car keys. He shouldn’t be allowed to drive period. America is so fucked and thus so is the rest of the world.

That role? Life.

Devil’s advocate if you’re an adult and your QOL is fine DO NOT entertain meds without a clear understanding of what they do, what they solve and what you’re looking for.

I got diagnosed at 40. I tried meds. First biphentin then concerta. Then I dropped it. What I need meds for is to assist with was negligible in my life with the exception of emotional regulation which they were making my life substantially worse. I’m successful in a career and as a father. I fail at relationships. I made the executive decision that meds are not for me. Psychology and CBT are far more valuable.

Amen. Virtue is the bomb, but also rum

I have never seen so many ways for a smart person to call someone a moron than I did in this video. I wish there were more examples to revel in

Kind of related but there was a video on StarTalk a couple days ago on NGT rebutting a Joe Rogan interview with Terrence Howard. It’s was joyous watching a breakdown in how science works while very politely calling TH an absolute moron.

Guns don’t protect children. They’re the leading cause of death in children.

Fucking THANK YOU!

Because writ large we are all under staffed and it we need to cut something it’s QA.

Good.

Cheap.

Fast.

Businesses have shown time and time again they choose cheap and fast. Good is a problem for the future.

MVP baby!

Still the best onion article of all time

Omg this is hilarious

People need to understand that when a tech company is “disrupting” it means they’re exploiting legal loopholes.
