It doesn't really comprehend what is going on on a very rational level.

@Paradox Well you seem to not have the issue so maybe you just can't sympathize with it as a concept?

When we have an angry Internet debate, our blood pressure rises and many of the same fight responses kick into action as if we were confronted on the street. Does that make sense? Yes and no.

Also, many "leftists" are on anti-anxiety meds etc

From a rational point of view it makes no sense. From an evolutionary point of view it makes perfect sense.

which reks their brain

Oh, I believe I have agreed it's a thing. What that thing is is what I am thinking about.

The thing it is about is often a threat narrative.

For women, who tend to be more anxious, it is often a threat to safety.

That is why a lot of rhetoric that is anti-male is centered around predation.

If you think that is very hypothetical and indirect - yes, because it is.

But most of our emotions are. When you cry during a movie, you are crying at a set of pixels. Does that make sense?

So how long has this server been in existence

I g2g

sorry

i'll check back later.

A person is rational to the degree that they recognize their own irrationality.

Dude wtf lmao

I get what you are saying, I just don't think it's topic specific. Instead it's something, that seems to span multiple topics.

Yeah I think we all agreed on that

oh did we?

@Rabbi Shekels lolwut

Yeah i know right

The only possible grounds I can think of is the right not to associate by means of not being able to block the messages

Is it something you have to opt into?

No. It's like Amber Alerts but nationwide

I don't know what the content of the presidential alerts are going to be

It's the Cheeto Alerts.

Apparently being sent an emergency text message is an illegal search or seizure

Well I don't get amber alert text messages. .

So, if it's like that then i don't see the problem.

Oh it's not SMS or text

What is it then?

Just an audio message with text that shows up on screen

You cant block it or reply to it because it's not from a phone number

this is basically like that "missile inbound" message, they can just send it to everyone because its a code-red kinda thing

oh, idk, never gotten that.

Hmm ... what if you already are in the middle of an emergency call?

my phone might be too old to.
