Than you are

2019-10-21 20:23:26 UTC  

Racism is misused by almost everyone, and although that is also the case with a lot of other words, this word in particular is being used nefariously to put you into a corner and at a big and long-term disadvantage in any discourse

2019-10-21 20:24:17 UTC  

So therefore the debate should shift towards the fact that it's being misused, and every legitimate tactic that exposes this fact should be used

2019-10-21 20:24:34 UTC  

Thus hopefully resulting in the discreditation of those using it

2019-10-21 20:25:10 UTC  

If you instead choose to wholesale adopt the term "racist", you're playing into your enemies' hands

2019-10-21 20:25:20 UTC  

Whether you are racist or not doesn't even matter

2019-10-21 20:26:30 UTC  

Contrapoints has experienced something very similar

2019-10-21 20:27:15 UTC  

The cancel culture has cancelled Contra over not something that he actually did, but that they imagine he did

2019-10-21 20:27:27 UTC  

And that is possible through the misuse of language, just like the term "racist"

2019-10-21 20:28:43 UTC  

Contra has an inside joke for this that describes this, and basically says that his views and words are actually irrelevant, what matters is only public perception

2019-10-21 20:28:52 UTC  

Truth goes out the window, narrative is everything

2019-10-21 20:30:28 UTC  

I think this is mostly true, not entirely, but enough that it should have a significant impact on the way people discuss things in public

2019-10-21 20:31:21 UTC  

This is why politicians dodge so many questions with all sorts of non-answers

2019-10-21 20:31:29 UTC  

Or at least it's one of the reasons

2019-10-21 21:23:10 UTC  

**USA the Land of the Free!**

2019-10-21 21:24:36 UTC  

America definitely isn’t the “land of the free”

2019-10-21 21:24:41 UTC  

That’s definitely bullshit

2019-10-21 21:27:46 UTC  

I fucking hate the HOA

2019-10-21 21:32:38 UTC  

what if the reason why commiewood is pushing popular female and black narratives where they dont struggle for anything and just get everything handed to them, and if they have to work for it, its corrupt straight white men being evil, is just a ploy to get children thinking that the world isnt suppose to put them through hardship, thus they should support reparations, free healthcare for illegals, and other such things

2019-10-21 22:17:06 UTC  

America is about as "land of the free" as it gets in a powerful, developed nation

2019-10-22 08:57:26 UTC  

not really

2019-10-22 08:58:01 UTC  

the only thing that we have is guns.

2019-10-22 08:58:08 UTC  

and that's going away fast.

2019-10-22 08:58:55 UTC  

America is the lapdog of israel too so.

"50 gorrilion dollars? Nah, about abouts 700 gorillion dollars a year for our greatest ally!"

@Toto
The first sentence clearly states
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1963313/
"Much research has shown that women are more empathic than men. Yet, women and men are equally forgiving. However, it is not clear whether empathy is more important to forgiveness for men or for women."

2019-10-22 10:18:49 UTC  

Women more empathetic than men, much research

2019-10-22 10:18:53 UTC  

Need I say more?

2019-10-22 10:19:14 UTC  

Okay but you need to take into account for the fact of socialization.

2019-10-22 10:19:22 UTC  

No I don't, I only need facts

2019-10-22 10:19:25 UTC  

Empathy isn't as useful for the male gender role.

2019-10-22 10:19:32 UTC  

The fact is women are demonstrably more empathetic

2019-10-22 10:19:36 UTC  

Why would men be concerned for it

2019-10-22 10:19:42 UTC  

That wasn't your argument

2019-10-22 10:19:46 UTC  

Your arguement is that men, naturally, are less empathetic.

2019-10-22 10:19:50 UTC  

Yes they are

2019-10-22 10:20:25 UTC  

My argument is that they are just as empathetic, by nature.

2019-10-22 10:20:31 UTC  

I should've made that more clear.

2019-10-22 10:20:35 UTC  

Overwhelming research shows otherwise

2019-10-22 10:21:59 UTC  

An article says otherwise, and they start to actually prove my point once I start skimming through.

2019-10-22 10:22:05 UTC  

"Perhaps the observed gender difference in the relationship between empathy and forgiveness is related to motivation rather than ability"
