hmm I don't get these Willem memes?
just having fun with his face
@CaZz gonna dm you some good ones
sounds good
@Sheamus I take your point - obviously, yes. Perhaps I'm not expressing myself clearly enough. Still new at Discord and such - work in progress to find my style. I would add that it's also a mark of intelligence. Contrast with someone like Ben Shapiro, for example.
Although I'm not a Christian, that quote rings true.
It might be true that I react badly to the way that the interviewer pretty much attacked Ernst. Call it being intolerant to intolerance, for want of a better description. Will have to work on it.
The earth is a 🍩
@RobVZ I struggle to watch those Ernst interviews. I need to mentally prepare before watching - It's not easy... controlling those feels
@spursfan82 get the shots ready
@RobVZ No worries mate, totally understand the difficulty of containing emotions, and yes intelligence is the ability to reason. Emotions change constantly, it is not logical, therefore any decisions made on the basis of ones own feelings will always be irrational, and this is the mistake many many people make, especially these well intentioned people who like to virtue signal the good that they do, and inevitably end up making things far far worse, because as we know, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. If you experience such emotions that wants to dictate your behaviour or even justify the reasoning of whatever acts follow, take a moment and reason with it, if you have sound principles, then reason according to those principles, and you will tame your emotions rather easily and quickly.
have u made a drinking game out of it @Meerkat_RSA ?
@spursfan82 At one point I wondered if I should call my psychiatrist friend.... maybe there's some vaccine against BLF. Probably can't treat stupid, but you can sedate it.
lol
not accurate, he's not watching
@andrews2547 so he is not completely a cuck
In other news, is Andile what-what back on Twitter? @mnxitama
Was he ever off?
@Sheamus You might already know about the Dunning-Kruger effect? Reading it on the Rational Wiki isn't scientifically accurate, but hey... https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Dunning-Kruger_effect
As in suspended
@WuldGoGayForLauren Yes, he was
For the 5:1?
@WuldGoGayForLauren Correct (but not today's from Lindsay Maasdorp)
Oh
What did he say that got him banned
Are you serious right now?
I'm confused
Was it Andile or Lindsay that posted the news article with "1:5"
@Sheamus Hooray! If you rephrase it slightly: you're too stupid to know you're stupid
cba
Thought he got suspended for him saying something directly on twitter ^^
Ok no, I'm out. Somebody else try
