What, you think i'm gonna believe anyone who could be a braindead retard without them proving to me they're *not* braindead and retarded?

https://www.tenor.co/Ysyh.gif

Lol Louis

And yeah, people do have agendas. But you know what, not everyones agenda is a bad one.

Not every agenda is a good one?

No, it's not. It's up to you to find out who's with you for yourself.

What do you know about project mockingbird,

Nothing, also for the record

I'm not American

Ok but I don't assume everyone is lying to me

I don't know how much you think gets outside of America, but I can tell you non-americans *really* don't care about what goes on over there

ok

At the same time I don't assume everyone's telling me the truth

You never should

@Reviire I’m not American either.

i was getting this place mixed up with FE official

Gwench is Canadian... Supposedly

That's pretty close to America

I live on a real fucking big island <:GWmemetownOMEGALUL:380058735214723072>

Yeah, but they have half the problems we do

Gays have more rights there

@The Gwench So, CIA tries to get American media to write fake stories?

https://youtu.be/fQl9H-gi9NE

I'm not watching a video when text would suffice

Yes, but sometimes omission is what they are guilty of. Most Americans know nothing if the rest of the world because they aren’t told.

@The Gwench I'll be honest, I don't have a very high opinion of most Americans, or their intelligence

So personally? I'm not surprised.

Entirely anecdotal but most of them seem like they completely lack any sort of skills to find out things for themselves

Like when I walk into a shitty area and there's bogans everywhere, except it's their whole country

Yeah. Ok, I'll agree with you there. We don't know about the rest of the world

Most of us anyway

But yeah that's a problem, media a shit. American media is especially but, but I won't say Australian media is *that* much better

The Americans are guilty of only listening to what they are told. Regrettably, this harms the rest of the world. The US foreign policies and such.

I'm egotistical and like to think highly of myself

US foreign policies are fucking terrible man

Lemme just

swing around my military dick

Do what i say ok

So I'd like to think I'm one of the few who can think for myself

I like to think most of the world can think for themselves

But I also refuse to associate with people who can't do that

<:smart:484956754489376781>

So maybe I'm just biased because I don't pay attention to those people

I was raised in extremely Christian Republican household, but you wouldn't think that if you met me

It’s not only an American problem.

Definitely one of the worst, though

Eh, in the first world anyway

I don't know what it's like over in Saudi Arabia or similar countries, but given their laws? Can't imagine it's very good.

There is a growing problem where the people become dependent on the system. These people become sheep...their puppets.

40 % of us don't believe in evolution. 20% of us are unsure. According to Wikipedia. According to the Huffington post 42% of us don't believe in evolution.

"believe in"

That makes it sound like a faith, rather than something that can be proven (or disproven)

Well that's what most people believe here

I'm in the 40% I didn't cite

@Reviire It’s not a faith. It’s called a belief.

I don't know when these statistics were taken

I do know Wikipedia and the Huffington post cites them

Except for it to be a belief, it would have to be something you can't prove, or at least, reasonably prove.

Well I disagree

I believe things fall when I drop them

I'm forced to believe reality

Evolution just happens to be part of that

@Reviire That is correct. Evolution has not yet been proven. Where is the missing link?

I wouldn't really call something that can be proven a belief, personally. Especially when it's so easy to get mixed up in faith. *Especially* something like gravity

Well, I'm not forced. But if I didn't believe it then I'm ignorant or dissonant

I don't know, I don't really read into it nor do I care

It's not something that has an impact on my life in any concievable way for me to want to learn about it

Well, Gwench, I have to get a shower, but I can debate about this later

@Reviire With that approach how can you even know if your life doesn’t get impacted?

It's 10pm here and I've got college tomorrow

@ShadyMasterJ talk to ya later.

Sure, without having a full understanding of it I might not know if it really will impact me, but from my current stand point, I don't see any sort of benefit it would give me.

It's got pretty much no relevance to the career I want to pursue

That’s a defeatist attitude. We cannot correct it fix what we don’t acknowledge.

Is it, though? Why would I learn about something I don't care about, that has no percieved benefit to what I want to do?

I don't intend to talk about it, because I don't have full confidence in my understanding of it.

What do you want to do?

I'm going to university to get a degree in Computer Science, so hopefully work as a software engineer.

Staying the fuck away from machine learning, never touching that no sir.

Lol. Good for you. I mean, why create Skynet?

AI waifus

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

AI is fucking BS

It serves only the people that design them.

That's a pretty good thing for you

If you design one

Also relevant image

😏

What am I looking at?

Why is it relevant?

Uh some weeb thing, I think it's like alexa

but japanese

Waifu <:GWfroggyPoggers:384871751441448970>

AI waifus

😏

Did you hear about the Alexa ?

No I don't own one and I don't want to own one

It's just a shitty way to do things I can already do

Apparently it refuses to explain or recognize Jesus.

[citation needed]

I could tell you if this is true, but I don't own one

so

Ok. I need time to find it.

@The Gwench All I can find is that there was a hoax about it calling him a fictional character, and the same guy saying it's not a hoax.

Although, in the defense of Alexa, it's probably reading some random webpage

Wait why am I defending that

I believe he's a fictional character too

<:GWchadThonkery:366999788803325952>

btw Zeus > Jesus

Computer Science? There's so many IT people here. Fuck

I haven't started yet 😔

I'm going to college for Electronics Systems

@ShadyMasterJ Maybe it's just because of friend groups

I'm in a networking class rn

The only reason I'm here is because my friend invited me, who also does smart boi stuff

Learning tons of shit I already know tbh

Well... Some stuff I don't

https://youtu.be/Mr402a9wUNc

Under 2 min 👆

Why must everything be in video format

Better proof

In this instance

For example. I didn't know the difference between cat 4 and 6 cables

I prefer text myself.

I'm usually watching videos or listening to something

Aside from being slower, videos kind of make me stop doing that

Videos distract me from good conversations like now.

>The second part of this video is them denying that gender (mentally) is a spectrum

Ignoring the angry feminists that no one likes

Also I discovered that I somehow managed to fuck up crimping with an EZ crimp

That's still a thing and is entirely separate from your sex, which yeah is male and female

Also yeah

@ShadyMasterJ Words I don't know the meaning of

The gender thing is not why I showed you that.

:(

I know, and honestly there's not a whole lot I can say here. I don't know enough about how Alexa works, it *could* be something Google did, but given the responses of so many other people who own an Alexa, i'm going to assume it was just whatever webpage it happened to stumble upon

Since it is just a glorified google bot

If you screw up crimping with an ez crimp, you are retarded. Actually no I just didn't have enough bare wire so it didn't cut clean enough

Crimping Ethernet cables

The cords that give you internet

Also wifi does that but you need Ethernet for desktops

Also from what I know, Jesus *isn't* fictional

He was a dude that existed

@ShadyMasterJ who are you talking to?

Not a mystical dude descended from god or anything, but he *did* exist.

I think

me

Lol

I’m texting

It’s too slow and causes me to miss most of the convo

@Reviire I kind of like talking with you. Why haven’t we done this before?

Can you say that again but in a way I can understand it

Because I don't like coming here

Damned autocorrect 😂

But I got pinged so i'm here now

Why don’t you like coming here?

I think very little of people who either can't form their own opinions and just parrot others, or do that so *badly* that they start listening to people like Alex Jones and think it's all real

When in reality he's just trying to sell you his products for insane prices

Alex Jones is a fraud

Did you know Alex Jones medicine contains soy

Ironic

Lol

And yet, there's people who listen to him 😔

@ShadyMasterJ SOOOOOOOOOOOOY

<:megalul:485077677175472148>

<:GWmemetownOMEGALUL:380058735214723072>

That is ironic. Lol

Fkn soyboys

*eats beans*

Aren’t you gay?

@The Gwench But don't get me wrong, it's not *just* flat earthers and all that I think lowly of

It's also the people who put their phones into the microwave

or other stupid shit

No. I'm not gay

@ShadyMasterJ wrong 😏

Lol. Guess what...I’m a flat earther.

I knew this

Ugh, did you see my dms @Reviire 😏

@ShadyMasterJ sorry. I don’t know why I thought that.

Probably because pepe is and we are friends

But i'm also a functioning adult who doesn't go into a rage because I disagree or just plain don't like people

Who goes into a rage?

I dunno, people who engage in political discussions

It's always the right vs the left

He's the only gay guy I know *here*

People can't form their own opinion, it's just party 1 vs party 2

There's no compromise, if you *try* to compromise now both sides hate you

That’s wrong. 🤔

I was generalizing yeah

We can’t have that.

@Reviire I understand that to an extent but only with certain issues

But I see it around pretty often, always Americans

This server is supposed to be a diverse group that can overcome their differences with mutual respect:

For example, humsn rights isn't something I see myself compromising over. You like capitalism and I like socialism? Ok let's compromise

Sometimes it's just walking down the street though and there's a bogan talking when he really shouldn't be

Bogan?

Uh, i guess it's like americans use redneck

Lol

It's what we call really stupid people that don't work

and exploit our welfare system

filthy socialists

*jk*

Omg. I complain about those libtards all the time:

Political terms reee

Lol

I'm a proud liberal

Brb

I'm a proud guy who has my own opinions on different things

Some of which overlap with various different groups

This liberals gotta let his dogs out

I am tired of working my ass off and paying into social programs that will never benefit me. Only the blood suckers benefit.

It does benefit you though.

Well the definition of liberal is literally being open to other's opinions so

Well, ideally

It goes into supporting people who can do something with their life.

For example

Welfare in Australia isn't only for people who are unemployed

It also funds education for those who can't afford it

My Computer Science degree is being paid by welfare, entirely

open to others opinions 😂

They don’t though. They turn the programs into a way of life.

No system is ideal, the best we can hope is it's implemented in a way to reduce abuse as much as possible

They do. But we try to get rid of those people.

modern day liberalism definition is being closed minded and cheating the system to achieve goals

I'm on welfare myself, currently. Since I'm going to be starting university, which will hopefully land me a good start into a career I want to be in.

That makes me happy to hear. Glad someone isn’t abusing it:

I'd probably be homeless, hungry, or stuck in some shitty dead-end job without it.

Better yourself. That’s good. It’s an opportunity. 👍🏼

@Reviire I’m sorry to keep you. Let’s talk again. 😃

You'd need to ping me

I guarantee you i won't enter this server of my own accord

Why not?

Well usually i'm doing shit, or shitposting elsewhere

I also just don't like being here but I haven't bothered leaving

I don't care to talk about things like the earth being flat, or other conspiracy theories

On one hand, I think you're wrong. But on the other

I *really* don't care

Lol. Ok. Your views are interesting. We flat earthers are not all bad you know.

speak for yourself gwen

And sometimes we can find a common ground

i am bad 😃

@Citizen Z Fuck you. 🖕

I spend 100% of my time either shitposting or playing games ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(i'm cute btw)

Ok. That’s shitposting?
