Yeah bro, a necessary precondition of responsibility is choice. You cannot be responsible for something you were forced to.

Funniest click-bait I ever encountered. -
Jews hate my app because of the word "Nazi" in the title
Psychophant replied to Tony's topic in Miscellaneous
Did you ever heard of trolls? Do you know what that quote means? How do you know that it is in his self interest to manage other people's pet peeves? You simply have to draw a line somewhere. Who said that people who are ignorant about a word in pop culture are called a substantial part of the target audience, how could you know? Especially if his app is popular noneseless. Albeit their criticism is not valid, since (s. post #7) Maybe he should release another version called Grammar Zionist - Kosher Edition. An improvement could be a caricature of a Nazi as intro, so that even some dense folks could grasp the meaning. -
Gender hypocrisy in the porn debate
Psychophant replied to Mike Fleming's topic in Men's Issues, Feminism and Gender
it is more ore less a click-bait who doesn't provide any evidence for the claim "Porn makes men stupid." If you look at the so called study, there is a sample of 64 males in the age bracket 21 to 45 whos center for gratification has shrunken for some reason, which are ostensible - according to their own information - heavy porn users. The results are likely to be skewed - because it was a questionaire with a small sample in addition to a MRI test. -

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/weird-news/watching-porn-makes-men-stupid-3624758 What you guys think of these misleading article? 1. It was a questionaire not a study. 2. A sample of 64 people can hardly be called representative. 3. You cannot tell for sure that the subjects understated or overstated their consumption. Yeah, a porn addict might have been susceptable to porn because of childhood trauma. What about the non-addicts? What about other addicts? Here it is, the result of the so called study:https://translate.google.de/translate?sl=de&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mpib-berlin.mpg.de%2Fde%2Fpresse%2F2014%2F06%2Fwer-viele-pornos-schaut-hat-ein-kleineres-belohnungssystem&edit-text= -

I am sure there are some social justice warriors which are offended by Stef's videos, too. Don't give in unless there is no other option. Words are means for communication and have different meanings in different contexts, under different settings, demographics, cultures, countries or mileus. E. g. the word cunt differs in meaning in anglo saxon countries. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cunt#Usage_by_meaning -
People who don't define crazy - not as an insult but objectively, despite refering to a person as crazy, are driving me crazy.

Is working in fast food Mentally/Emotionally healthy.
Psychophant replied to aFireInside's topic in Self Knowledge
Yeah, you are the service employee who serves the customer their meals, that's the technical part of it, that doesn't mean it makes no difference whether they verbally vomit over you or not. -
Yeah, yeah, women who act this way want the benefit of the picker and chooser but not the draw back of being approach by an unpleasant guy who they like to call names like creep and pervert. If you dress like a slut, you will be perceived as such, since men ain't mind readers. If you woman are such a tender being who is frightened by an unpleasant guy, don't send the wrong signals.

If Restitution is Impossible why is Forgiveness Impossible?
Psychophant replied to NonPatrician's topic in Philosophy
Guilt is an theological concept, there is only responsibility. Since forgiveness is a feeling, you can skip all over it. You cannot order your feelings arround, that doesn't mean you cannot forgive a killer - given the feeling is genuine. They have "earned" it if you feel a particular way. -

Hommie, there is no objective standard for clothing, since you cannot derive an ought from an is. You can argue that in some cases one garment is more suitable than the other, in case you are operating dangerous machinery or riding a horse back but that is not a normative thing. Government enforces an arbitrary standard that is so ill defined that it leaves room for a political witch hunt against people who dress a certain way.

For a long time I relied on a ravioli-fastfood-fudge-and-candy diet which wasn't balanced and oversaturated with sugar and salt. Even though I cycle about 20 - 40 km a day, it is tasty but I have already seen issues with that in brittle and weak hair. I want to grow healthy hair, so that's the main reason for a change. I start the day with a big portion oatmeal with a banana and milk. During the day I eat another banana and 4 plums which equal a total of 3 cups of fruit. In the evening I have fish or ravioli for the evening meal. I mainly get vitamin A, B, C, K, protein and biotin out of it AFAIK. I am a diabetic type 1 which means my pancreas needs insulin injections. In carbonhydrate units these are 12 for the oat meal and 9 for the fruits until afternoon and 12 for evening meal. I cycle about 20km a day right now. Are 3 cups of fruit to much on a daily basis?

Women dress like men, too, wear trousers, t-shirts, sneakers, suits and bow-ties, just to mention a few. Better go with Humme's law. You cannot derive an ought from an is. Stereotypes might be convenient, but that doesn't make them objective. E. g. I am a dude who likes to wear kilts and other skirts with or without tights combined with shirts or T-shirts, sneakers and biker boots. I exercise my freedom of expression. I don't fit in any aformentioned categories.

Howmuch money earn women thanks to there kids.
Psychophant replied to Bortasz's topic in Men's Issues, Feminism and Gender
Better speak for yourself, there is no we, and what has being adult to do with making sense? Does kids love to not understand something? That makes no sense to me. If you don't wanna patronizing me, refrain from unrelated items like being an adult, which makes you look like you'd perceive me as an retard. Does it make you an adult for not understanding something and blaming me instead? I don't think so. If dude votes, with attending the game, he accepts the rules > Rules are a group of people steal from you at gun point and spend the money to their whims, based on the false argument from morality. That means they intend to bribe single moms with taxpayer money and surfing the system is the consequence. He would accept the rules but not the consequences. His actions - that he supports the system - would contradict his words. Where did I pretend that he votes? -

Psychophant replied to Bortasz's topic in Men's Issues, Feminism and Gender
Question is, does these troll in the video vote? With rulers there ain't no rules and if you support a corrupt system and complain about single moms on welfare, better stop voting or you may call yourself a hypocrite. -
@theAuger Yeah, but you forgot to mention that opposed to faith, knowledge is also a subset of truth.

Yeah, the wrongs you could do in the eye of a thug in uniform are various but, since this dude works for an immoral agency, how likely could it be that those wrongs are moral wrongs?

How can you life with a vegan as an omnivore? You don't distinguish between meat-eater and vegan, cuz meat eaters ain't restricted to meat but vegans restrict themselfs to non-animal products. Thus it is more precise to destinguish between restricted and non-restricted eater. It stands to argue that if veganism is just a preference instead of a moral choice, love is possible. Otherwise if she is an activist and calls people like you murderer like those PETA crowd, you better should stay away from her, at least if you prefer integrity over bossoms.

Does having kids before 30 seem really young to you?
Psychophant replied to NameName's topic in Miscellaneous
I doubt that having more money to buy you pussy for the sake of reproduction helps, since the conditions don't change and a single man in its prime has even more to loose. Switching into the 5th gear doesn't help if you hit a wall. -
On a pragmatic level, for sure, but you could hardly call a cave woman lady. Albeit that, the whole concept of chivalry is sexist, bigotted and hypocritical. It is sexist because it grants preferential treatment based on genitalia. It is bigotted because these kinda sexism is perceived as normative by the proponent. Yeah, and sexism is hypocritical because of the doublestandard.

I am at a slow pace, bro. I started learning anglo saxon language in 1995 and still am far behind a native speaker. Concluding from a spoken word to vacabulary is not that easy, even with experience. I could conclude from spoken language to vocabulary in almost all cases in Stef's presentations. English is so rich in words that you almost cannot make any ambiguous jokes.

Proportionate violence is characterzied by force which is necessary to stop an attacker, but you have to take into account the threat itself, e. g. someon smacks you in the face or someone punches you in the face. The former is more likely an indicator for someone short tempered is acting out and the latter is more likely someone who is charging on you.
