I’m not saying mindfulness can’t have serious benefits. However, I would caution anyone who’s into it to read the book McMindfulness. A lot of the “science” behind it doesn’t stand up to scrutiny, there can be genuine drawbacks to it, and it’s often used in unethical ways–like to make CEOs of ruthless companies more able to shove aside their feelings of guilt, or to sharpen the minds of soldiers for killing.

one kind of dumbass will also be another kind of dumbass. worth knowing, but not especially surprising

yes i have, and his argument is fucking stupid. marx is all right, but i straight-up hate engels.

yes i have, and his argument is fucking stupid.

yes i have, and his argument is fucking stupid. “oh yeah??? well doing stuff is authoritarian!” isn’t the own you tankies seem to think it is.

if MODERATORS are landed gentry, what the fuck does that make rich bastards like him?

there are things you can do to start building a better world today, but it never feels like enough

as a woke leftist, i hate tankies because y’all aren’t leftists in any meaningful sense. the only difference between you and libs is which countries whose atrocities you justify.

i’ve read marx. at precisely no point does he say anything justifying the various atrocities state capitalist countries have committed. i think he’s wrong about some stuff, but even if you accept that his word is gospel, tankies are still just people who took leftist principles as an excuse for the imposing the kind of brutal authoritarianism that leftists are supposed to be against.

See, I was born around 8:00 AM and I hate mornings. I figure it’s the trauma of being ripped out of my nice comfortable home into this weird, loud, cold setting I never asked to go to.

Huh. Still not gonna use it lol

But wait. I have a NSFW subreddit, and reddit doesn’t allow you to upload pictures directly to reddit if you’re on an NSFW subreddit. Right? So how can it be the primary host?

Ha. As if there’s a process. I just stumble across a hill one day and realizing I’m willing to die on it.

you’re acting like this is some kind of new thing. it’s not. trans kids have already been using puberty blockers, and it’s been fine. it’s only new to people like you who didn’t care one way or the other about trans people until you were told they were on the wrong side of the culture war.

just don’t get married then. christ. we need an /r/arethestraightsokay.

unlike cigarettes, trans kids getting healthcare hurts no one. bad post op

If not, huge missed opportunity.

The burden of proof nevertheless lies with you.

I’d request you cite your sources. I might even click on them.

How many people actually click on the cited sources on reddit and Twitter?
