You are still gish-galloping.

2019-11-14 22:12:16 UTC

You never admitted any mistake on fetal alcohol syndrome being genetic.

2019-11-14 22:12:30 UTC

I thought you weren't interested in arguing anymore whiic

2019-11-14 22:13:17 UTC

Drinking alcohol doesn't give you AUD, it isn't changing your genetics

2019-11-14 22:13:26 UTC

Fine, I wouldn't reach you anyway. You don't acknowledge developmental disorders to exist outside of "it causes mutation in genes, herpa derpa".

2019-11-14 22:13:35 UTC

Just read the article @XoviaHarmile

@ETBrooD if they are twins they'll have the same genes, just because one due to social situations starts drinking doesn't mean that his genes have changed from those of their sibling. In the quote you highlighted it doesn't seem to suggest that genes causing a highly likelihood of addiction isn't being caused by alcoholism, but is just common

2019-11-14 22:20:41 UTC

Although I don't know where from the article you've taken the quote from, so I could just be misinterpreting it

2019-11-14 22:23:44 UTC

Anyway, I'mma go part-take in the pastime of geniuses

2019-11-14 22:23:55 UTC

Playing Minecraft

2019-11-14 22:27:20 UTC

That wasn't what was tested obviously

2019-11-14 22:27:44 UTC

They tested the effect of drinking on the twins' offspring

2019-11-14 22:43:28 UTC

Listen this is why people hate talking to you whiic, you argue someone, they fuck up and point and then thatโ€™s all itโ€™s about. Everyone that argues you fucks up at one point or another

2019-11-14 22:43:47 UTC

Hell I donโ€™t even understand why you debate someone other than to try them look dumb

2019-11-14 22:44:13 UTC

And of course, no one wants to admit their mistakes...*to you*

2019-11-14 22:44:23 UTC

Because then you wouldnโ€™t drop it

2019-11-14 22:45:08 UTC

Then โ€œoh so how can you be correct about the heritability of acholoism if you fucked up on FAS?โ€

2019-11-14 22:50:59 UTC

Not only that, but I didn't even fuck up, because the argument was two-fold

2019-11-14 22:51:42 UTC

1) nutrition effects the genes
2) those genes are heritable
Therefore good/bad nutrition affects the off-spring

2019-11-15 03:46:32 UTC

"Because then you wouldnโ€™t drop it"
All of the cases of me not dropping it, have been cases where once proven wrong, the retard refuses to admit being proven wrong. **AND IT'S JUST LIKE THAT THIS TIME AROUND AS WELL.**

2019-11-15 03:49:10 UTC

I sure as fuck am not going to claim myself mistaken when I know I'm in the right and he's in the wrong. Nutrition does not change your genes. Your genes are what they are from the date you were conceived. Mutations are random and not nutritional (unless you eat something carcinogenic/radioactive), and will be independently mutated cell-by-cell. This causes **CANCER** not evolved characteristics.

I'm not giving up on **REALITY** because ETBrooD is scientifically illiterate moron, who still doesn't admit any mistake.

2019-11-15 03:50:20 UTC

And all you advice is that no-one wants to admit being wrong because I would supposedly never forget their mistakes. And that they instead continue to be wrong, because that's (supposedly) more likely to make me stop mocking them for being idiots.

2019-11-15 03:50:25 UTC

Who pissed in YOUR Wheaties, Whiic?

2019-11-15 03:50:48 UTC

Shut up, retard.

2019-11-15 03:51:23 UTC

If you aren't even going to defend nonsense like "nutrition changes your genome", then just shut up.

2019-11-15 03:51:33 UTC

And no sensible person would defend such idiocy.

2019-11-15 03:51:48 UTC

SALT

2019-11-15 03:51:51 UTC

HOLY SHIT

2019-11-15 03:51:56 UTC

Well no even your genes aren't fixed methylation and de-methylation alters their molecular structure. That's before we get into the really weird shit like transposons.

2019-11-15 03:52:00 UTC

THIS IS LITTLEBOOTS tier salt

2019-11-15 03:52:10 UTC

god bless your lolicon heart, Whiic. You made me laugh.

2019-11-15 03:53:53 UTC

@whiic Though you'll notice how it's obvious that I'm not here to actually argue either point, and that you're getting REALLY fucking angry at me because.....I'm not arguing a point you're arguing against?

2019-11-15 03:54:04 UTC

do you feel the need to have someone argue against you THAT badly?

2019-11-15 03:54:06 UTC

Why are you in **DEBATE**?

2019-11-15 03:54:12 UTC

I was checking on it

2019-11-15 03:54:20 UTC

and saw something funny

2019-11-15 03:54:43 UTC

you ARE aware that not every bit of content here has always been debate-related, right?

2019-11-15 03:54:57 UTC

sometimes people like to react to others arguing in here

2019-11-15 03:55:25 UTC

And you really don't have anything better to say about the topic?

2019-11-15 03:55:40 UTC

Ouch. Still angry?

2019-11-15 03:56:10 UTC

I wouldn't blame ya. I also get angry when people decide to make an observation about somebody who happens to be arguing.

2019-11-15 03:56:49 UTC

though ya missed a good opportunity for a LB-tier insult

2019-11-15 03:57:01 UTC

earlier, you COULD have said: "you aren't people, Lore"

2019-11-15 03:57:49 UTC

I don't care about some insult and meta. Go spam elsewhere already.

@Boop / ๋ธŒํŒŒ / C'thUwU stop spamming bro smdh

2019-11-15 04:00:28 UTC

Though I will say, @whiic. Sadly, you don't seem to be the sharpest knife in the drawer. Though, you'd think that you wouldn't fall for such obvious bait. It really does seem I expected too much of out you.

2019-11-15 04:02:46 UTC

@Boop / ๋ธŒํŒŒ / C'thUwU I'm not the one being salty because of some obvious bait <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

2019-11-15 04:03:22 UTC

Lore levels of meta in debate.

2019-11-15 04:03:29 UTC

Whiic levels of salt in debate.

my reasons arent your concern

do not @ me

2019-11-15 04:03:41 UTC

They are kinda my concern

2019-11-15 04:04:01 UTC

@Boop / ๋ธŒํŒŒ / C'thUwU is it because of pings blowing up for device?

welcome to the block list then bud

2019-11-15 04:04:46 UTC

Lore thinks that's a win.

2019-11-15 04:04:52 UTC

But refuses to admit he just spams.

of course he does

2019-11-15 04:05:14 UTC

Meh. I deserved that block. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿป

2019-11-15 04:05:33 UTC

If you don't mind, I'll add it to my list

2019-11-15 04:06:19 UTC

Ah, I love being a sperg

2019-11-15 04:06:24 UTC

it really triggers the other spergs here

2019-11-15 04:06:43 UTC

I guess it's my natural gift <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

2019-11-15 04:08:34 UTC

@whiic I mean, getting him to block me WAS my goal, so yes. It WAS a win.

2019-11-15 04:10:02 UTC

People block you only because you're like that baby who cries in the bus.

2019-11-15 04:10:08 UTC

Nah

2019-11-15 04:10:14 UTC

Baba blocked me for political reasons

2019-11-15 04:10:26 UTC

Mother of Division blocked me for being a Weeb, I think.

2019-11-15 04:10:26 UTC

Yeah, right. What political reason?

2019-11-15 04:10:31 UTC

You didn't express any.

2019-11-15 04:10:39 UTC

How would YOU know?

2019-11-15 04:10:59 UTC

You made the positive statement about the reason.

2019-11-15 04:11:09 UTC

Kinda so did I, but it was at least plausible.

2019-11-15 04:11:19 UTC

Considering you never made any argument, only pinged.

2019-11-15 04:11:22 UTC

"kinda so did I"

2019-11-15 04:11:31 UTC

@whiic Nah, not the reason why Baba blocked me

2019-11-15 04:11:46 UTC

Boop's the first person to block me for Ping Spam

2019-11-15 04:12:12 UTC

Little_Boots blocked me for laughing at that one time he did some retarded shit

2019-11-15 04:12:23 UTC

I blocked you for political reasons. Namely, because you are a communist.

2019-11-15 04:12:56 UTC

I'm a Centrist Communist? Hella nice. For a moment, I thought I was being hella radicalized, man

2019-11-15 04:12:56 UTC

I don't care if you think it's a "win".

2019-11-15 04:13:06 UTC

I don't care if you care

2019-11-15 04:13:12 UTC

whether you care is irrelevant

2019-11-15 04:14:13 UTC

Hah

2019-11-15 04:14:28 UTC

now I just need NinjaQuick to block me

whiic, he won already, geez

he was so retarded he made me not want to see his words anymore

2019-11-15 04:17:46 UTC

@Jym *"Well no even your genes aren't fixed methylation and de-methylation alters their molecular structure. That's before we get into the really weird shit like transposons."*

Well, none of that stuff supports assertions like "being well fed increases your IQ due to mutations in your genes".

2019-11-15 04:28:19 UTC

Which I think is ETBrooD's general position on genes and IQ: that IQ is affected by genes... but that nutrition actually acts as an evolutionary agent, *after* you've already been conceived. He also mixed up fetal alcohol syndrome (developmental disorder) and genes that make people more likely to succumb to alcoholism (i.e genetic predisposition).

2019-11-15 04:34:36 UTC

Calling fetal alcohol syndrome genetic is pretty weird, considering that it's pretty much in the name itself that it's about exposure to alcohol while still in the womb, not about pairing of the genetic materials. It's about environment the cells are subjected to, making the body develop differently despite of the genes. It's like transgender hormone therapy... and that doesn't make you change your biological sex anymore than fetal alcohol syndrome changes your genetic make-up.

2019-11-15 05:27:21 UTC

I didn't mix those two up, that's your strawman

2019-11-15 05:47:04 UTC

Why did you switch to the other, then?

2019-11-15 05:47:12 UTC

I never followed your "logic".

2019-11-15 05:47:36 UTC

And what's your explanation to this?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/633967335614447636/644775489067679764/unknown.png

2019-11-15 05:48:21 UTC

How does alcohol during pregnancy cause damage to genes?

2019-11-15 05:48:56 UTC

Just because it's damaged development doesn't automatically mean it's damaged genes.

2019-11-15 05:49:15 UTC

You claim gene pool is damaged because of drinking during pregnancy. Defend yourself, retard.

2019-11-15 05:50:37 UTC

@ETBrooD Let's ping you so you know you have some explaining to do.

2019-11-15 05:55:06 UTC

Or explain this:

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/633967335614447636/644777373195042826/unknown.png

2019-11-15 05:55:36 UTC

This is some New-Age version of science.

2019-11-15 05:55:37 UTC

I gave the FAS as an example to show that alcohol consumption can cause genetic damage because you rejected my claim that better nutrition causes better genes. I asked you to explain FAS so that you'd be forced to admit that (but you refused to answer the question).
https://gyazo.com/09642a4b102e3a59152f3e6172cb37e9

2019-11-15 05:56:36 UTC

This is Kraut levels of nonsense.
**ACADEMICS PLEASE RESPOND.**

2019-11-15 05:57:34 UTC

Since you straight up rejected the claim that nutrition causes any better genes at all, I could only continue my case of damage to the genes being heritable through nutritional deficiencies by addressing your initial rejection first.

2019-11-15 05:59:17 UTC

How is FAS damaging **genes** come up in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetal_alcohol_spectrum_disorder
(or do I misremember you linking to Wikipedia earlier)

2019-11-15 05:59:41 UTC

The wiki you linked to disagrees with your claim that FAS causes **genetic** damage.

2019-11-15 05:59:51 UTC

One last time. Listen carefully.

2019-11-15 06:00:06 UTC

It only talks about brain damage, nervous system damage, structural damage, etc. Not genetic.

2019-11-15 06:00:18 UTC

How
Does
FAS
Damage
Genes?

2019-11-15 06:00:25 UTC

My argument was not that the FAS causes genetic damage, by argument was that the FAS is an example of genetic damage caused by malnutrition.

2019-11-15 06:00:26 UTC

Why does wiki disagree with you?

2019-11-15 06:00:44 UTC

my*

2019-11-15 06:01:08 UTC

So FAS doesn't cause genetic damage but FAS is example of genetic damage?

2019-11-15 06:01:14 UTC

Yes

2019-11-15 06:01:14 UTC

FAS is not genetic damage.

2019-11-15 06:01:19 UTC

FAS is not genetic at all.

2019-11-15 06:01:23 UTC

It's developmental.

2019-11-15 06:01:47 UTC

It's like injecting estrogen into your veins. Might make tits grow but doesn't change you to XX.

2019-11-15 06:03:31 UTC

So you straight up reject that malnutrition can cause genetic damage?

2019-11-15 06:04:12 UTC

**YES.**

2019-11-15 06:04:37 UTC

Damage is done to the cells, not really to genes.

2019-11-15 06:05:00 UTC

And if you damage the genes with malnutrition or addition of carcinogens, you get cancer, not FAS or lowered IQ.

2019-11-15 06:05:11 UTC

Mutations are random.

2019-11-15 06:06:39 UTC

Malnutrition does not allow cells to function and replicate the way they should, so malnourished children will not grow as tall or as intelligent. But that's not because malnutrition damaged their genes.

2019-11-15 06:08:50 UTC

If malnutrition caused gene damage, the children would develop cancer. Yet... cancer is a problem of the developed world, not the 3rd world.

2019-11-15 06:13:39 UTC

@ETBrooD That Wiki article does not contain word "malnutrition" or "malnourishment" in it.

2019-11-15 06:13:40 UTC

If you spent half the time you waste here studying genetics and oncology, you'd both be experts and you wouldn't both look like autists.

2019-11-15 06:14:14 UTC

So malnourishment **DOES NOT CAUSE GENE DAMAGE**. Why are you linking to that? You were supposed to prove the reverse. You fucking dullard.

2019-11-15 06:14:45 UTC

Correction: the inverse

2019-11-15 06:15:10 UTC

I was talking about both malnourishment and bad nutrition

2019-11-15 06:15:23 UTC

You love to focus on one thing when I say several things

2019-11-15 06:15:45 UTC

Technically, malnourisment does cause gene damage ... if you don't eat, you can't make new cells but the old ones still die, and you are under replacement rate for genetic material

2019-11-15 06:15:47 UTC

That wiki also doesn't contain "nutrition" or "alcohol" in it.

2019-11-15 06:16:11 UTC

How does that article prove FAS is caused by genetic damage?

2019-11-15 06:17:38 UTC

Shit. I'm reminded of the superfluous stink raised over so-called "frankenfoods," a.k.a. genetically-modified organisms. FFS even if you do tweak its DNA, it's still food!

2019-11-15 06:17:38 UTC

@Goddess Tyche That's a rather sophist way to put it. Because the only way for genes to be damaged is for cell to die.

2019-11-15 06:18:06 UTC

@whiic I'm just having the same level of discussion as you two

2019-11-15 06:18:08 UTC

And "your" genome is the genes of those cells still alive, so for "your" genes to get damaged by malnutrition, **you need to die first**.

2019-11-15 06:18:13 UTC

Can't blame me for it, can you?

2019-11-15 06:18:19 UTC

And by that point, fearing cancer is rather redundant.

2019-11-15 06:18:43 UTC

I keep looking up the facts about this that I've gathered but you keep rejecting them without reading them properly, so yeah

2019-11-15 06:18:49 UTC

Not wasting my time anymore, g'day

2019-11-15 06:19:32 UTC

@ETBrooD Alcohol abuse is not same as FAS.

2019-11-15 06:19:51 UTC

I'm done, if you ping me again I'll block you

2019-11-15 06:21:20 UTC

@whiic It kinda is, though, it's just that you're not abusing it voluntarily, and doing it when it has the most potential to fuck you up.

2019-11-15 06:25:40 UTC

Are we counting epigenetics here

2019-11-15 06:25:49 UTC

I feel like epigenetics are worth counting

2019-11-15 06:26:08 UTC

ETBrooD has a funny way of emphasizing what in uncertain over what is certain:

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/633967335614447636/644785187284320267/unknown.png

2019-11-15 06:26:41 UTC

And he just goes on to emphasize the **UNPROVEN HYPOTHESIS**:

2019-11-15 06:27:07 UTC

Yeah, it's like totally FAS is genetic abnormality dude. New-age science, man.

2019-11-15 06:27:59 UTC

oh wait it's still this conversation

2019-11-15 06:28:26 UTC

thought it was a different one, carry on then

2019-11-15 06:28:56 UTC

We are discussing if compound fractures are caused by genes, or if instead they cause genetic mutations.

2019-11-15 06:29:12 UTC

The possibility that they might be related to environment have been outruled.

2019-11-15 06:31:49 UTC

Everything life does is caused by genes, in a sense; but just as calling everything 'political' simply creates a worthless term, so too does calling everything 'genetic'.

2019-11-15 06:34:39 UTC

Certainly you may be more or less likely to cause a child to suffer from FAS, and certainly it is within the realm of possibility that some mechanism that warns a mother from drinking while pregnant could indeed erode over time, but in the end, FAS is not itself a heritable disorder, but an induced disfigurement.

2019-11-15 06:35:21 UTC

In other words, ETBrooD, get owned

didnt think about that

i like the idea of gay people basically acting like Eunuchs

can leave them home with the women to protect them, without worrying about them raping

and the somoa idea of a third gender i like

2019-11-15 09:03:05 UTC

But what if your wife rapes the gay?

women cant rape

thats ridiculous

2019-11-15 11:14:38 UTC

@Jym

well I did not make that assertion. Merely pointed out that the view of DNA as an unchanging code was wrong. But FWIW on diet and starvation your mother's can have a big effect on your genes. An awful lot of methylation occurs in vitro. Which makes sense if you think about it this bundle of cells has to figure out where to turn into a toenail and where to turn into a kidney etc etc,

This creates an excellent opportunity for the mother's endocrine system which is in contact with the outside world to (and this is a very crude description) help the child develop so as to be survivable in that world. Look into the Dutch Hunger Winter phenomena it can actually be heritable while not strictly in the DNA code.

2019-11-16 07:44:26 UTC

Same as Europe

2019-11-16 07:48:28 UTC

Most people act like they are nothing more than deterministic carriers of the genetic information coded in their dna.

i mentioned how that channel made an EU video

and then did videos about ants after

and i couldnt help but notice the connection

the nsome dingnugget was calling me retarded cuz 'theyre just nice vidoes with nothing to do with each other'

even though its the same channel, and the last video before the ants was an EU one that wasnt overly critical

2019-11-16 09:07:11 UTC

Hi @@Boop / ๋ธŒํŒŒ / C'thUwU I was going for the :

1. Same ants in their native environment

Also, for good or for bad: We can't care more or equally about other people's offsprings as we do for our immediate genetic relatives...
