Yep donkeys are dope.

One battle after another

It was pretty decent.

Also Civil War was similar in some ways (both movies are a commentary on modern America)

Just another 6 or 7 years and then another person can be at the top of the hierarchy. (This was said 6-7 years ago)

I watched it, interesting video and accessible approach to the topic.

I couldn’t help but walk away from the video thinking about how many kids enter STEM/non-social science degrees at college and get to fully fledged adulthood before the realisation that social science is pretty fucking important and touches every aspect of our lives.

I probably have a chip on my shoulder because of how much everyone shits on social science as a low paid/dead end career but it’s upsetting an astrophysicists opinions about social science seems to be taken more seriously than an actual social scientist (this is more based on her previous video about gravity being a social construct but a lot of social science constructs are weaved into the Fermi paradox video as well).

Lemmy is not representative of the broader population.

I have no doubt there are therapeutic applications for hallucinogens and psychedelics just as much as there are recreational uses for those drugs as well.

My contention is really directed at those who think these are some kind of out of body spiritual hack to “unlock” knowledge.

It smacks of Joe Rogan nonsense.

If it ain’t pointy don’t stick it.

I really object to this idea that hallucinogens unlock some kind of higher plane of existence that can’t be experienced by people who don’t do these drugs.

If it were true that people who did hallucinogens did gain some kind of additional knowledge why is it they aren’t achieving things at some obviously higher rate?

If you want to use recreational or therapeutic drugs be my guest, just don’t come back telling me you’ve uncovered the secrets to the universe…

One thing I took away from learning more about philosophy was to be unsure of pretty much anything except my own existence.

The idea that there is an objective mind independent reality is a nice idea and neatly fits my worldview but there are compelling arguments for this not to be the case.

I’d only ask what makes you so certain of this “uniform and self-consistent reality” because if you’re relying on your senses to gather information for this fact I regret to inform you that human senses are awfully unreliable.

Get Wynne!!!

I swear we are going to be travelling to other planets and the biggest issue is going to be how do we stop water leaking into space from our steam turbines

That’s what good pushi looks like.

Rutte can go and get fucked.

He is a lapdog to the USA and doesn’t protect or advocate for European interests.

I expected better from Europe but you’re all just colonialists.

Yeah was going to say, the actual answer is, surprisingly a lot.

In episode ‘2F09’, when Itchy plays Scratchy’s skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib twice in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is some sort of a magic xylophone or something?

On Lemmy you can advocate for violence against literal Nazis.

Not really, it’s a nice sentiment to be encouraging and educate people who are not familiar with leftist politics but that belies the truth that it does take effort on both sides (teacher and learner) to become educated about why they benefit everyone.

I think everyone could learn this school of thought but it is a lot harder than being a fascist propagandist.

The meme is making the effort required to be educated or a fascist equivalent when they are not.

Being a fascist is intellectually easy.

Got a problem? Blame migrants Can’t get ahead? Blame Jews Can’t afford a house? Black people got too uppity

It’s a one trick pony, all problems are caused by someone else and I’m perfect.

Understanding the systemic reasons why women still aren’t paid the same as men or why a disproportionate amount of African Americans are incarcerated is hard and requires a lot of foundational groundwork to overcome the huge capitalist propaganda machine.

And then they’ll start putting the American Japanese in internment camps!
