What’s Greenland going to do? Make a strongly worded statement? They’re kinda out of options.

How do you know you’re not gaslighting yourself?

Maybe the article never changed, it always read how the other person interpreted it.

You read it through your filters and took something completely different than what it said.

I’ve seen this happen heaps. Even with articles where I’ve been able to prove it hasn’t been edited, and books too.

The overwhelming majority of what people consider “mental health” issues simply stop being issues when people fix:

Diet

Exercise

Faith

I can prove God exists is the same sense that you can explain why there isn’t simply nothing at all.

Ultimately science can’t explain why there is anything at all, rather than the more likely scenario of there simply being nothing.

It’s not a question science can answer.

Once there is something, rather than the obviously more likely nothing at all, science won’t help you understand why physics > chemistry > biology is ever so precisely tuned to be able to give rise to everything necessary for complex life to arise.

Without resorting to circular reasoning.

There’s definitely an aspect of mythos in the, well, “creation myths”.

The religious texts of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, have anything but a primitive understanding of the human condition, the human world. My understanding of the worlds other great religions is very limited, other than to say they appear to have served their adherents well enough to have got them this far.

The problems the world faces today are primarily those of frivolity, corruption, excess. No amount of science is going to help there.

Solar needs to address its dispatchability problem before it becomes viable as anything other than a vanity project.

Australia is experiencing this problem now to a limited extent, and is walking in to a disaster scenario with the scheduled shutdown of 5 gigawatts of coal fired electricity generating across three sites over the next three years with nothing in the pipeline to replace that 5GW.

When did the USA interfere militarily in Europe?

Would Europe have been better off under Nazi Germany?

Is that what you’re saying?

Why? Because you said so?

So China and India can use all the fossil fuels they want, and other counties too not just them.

But the West has to kowtow to Net Zero / ”Renewables” nonsense?

We’re not buying it anymore.

Everything has tradeoffs.

Destroying the economy and letting low income and poor people freeze in the dark or melt in the sun is passé.

There is exactly zero evidence that any religion isn’t true.

How could there be?

Evolution can’t disprove the existence of God.

You can’t know that.

His life isn’t a double-blind randomised placebo controlled study.

There is no second instance of him to falsify your claim.

One thing talking to a therapist has a proven ability to do is fatten their purse at your expense.

There are no measurable benefits better than placebo.

The rates of sudden blindness have doubled as a result of the massive rise in the numbers of people who are taking GLP-1.

Sudden blindness on one or both eyes. No warning, no symptoms, wake up with damaged eyesight up to and including blindness.

For most people who are overweight or obese it’s been something they’ve been able to live with.

Waking up blind would be catastrophic.

These drugs should be taken off the market.

This is all complete and utter rubbish.

If you talk to any man who’s overcome adversity, they’ll straight up tell you they didn’t do any of this nonsense.

There’s no such thing as “mental health issues”.

There is such a thing as the “Mental Health Industrial Complex”.

How did humans evolve and survive for hundreds of thousands of years without “mental health issues” and suddenly 23% of children in public schools have a diagnosis.
