That’s a bit silly. Many animals have far better vision than humans, such as birds of prey. Even many mammals have far better night vision. I’m positive even dogs and cats without eyesight problems can see stars.

Whether they fully comprehend what they’re looking at is a different question, as if humans are any good at truly comprehending the scale of space, either…

Eh. Just because a primitively stupid thing has company does not make it more acceptable.

Then allow me to refine my point to specify organized religion’s teachings. Sure, many develop a community, but they develop a community that specifically judges and ostracizes anyone not conforming to their extremely narrow belief system.

Most of organized religions leverage those negative aspects to further control their ‘flock’. There are many aspects that are outright horrible for individuals, not the least of which is believing things for the simple fact that an authority said so.

I’m not against people building community. I am very against people building insular, hierarchical, tyrranical systems that brainwash people into foolish or down right horrible behavior.

You started the uncivility first. Intereating how you cannot understand what you yourself say.

That’s all corporations, not just VW. Virtually none, especially their size, are going to willingly eat the cost of a supplier quality control issue.

Global warming due to the co2 we’ve already dumped will destroy us anyways. The “AI” slop is just the cherry on top that will guarantee societal collapse instead of just mass migrations and water wars.

They’ve definitely cut back on flavor this past year. Not just on pizza flavor. I stopped buying any of them because they’re not worth it any more. Bunch of extra calories for no taste? They can fuck off and die.

That might be the words they said while completely ignoring the examples, but those examples made it abundantly clear that they meant gendered pronouns.

Just one little aoldier following orders. There are definitely not copious numbers of examples of that going poorly…

You can address someone without gendered pronouns… they even gave examples.

I’m not a headline Andy. They literally said, in the PR, that it was also to address these laws. It is not a slippery slope fallacy when they’re citing it as a reason. It’s part of the fucking motivation. It’s part of the reason it exists in the first place.

Just because you are too young/naive to understand how this kind of shit turns over in the real world, and/or too illiterate to read PR comments, doesn’t magically make all the people upset about it alarmists.

They literally said it’s to address the laws in the PR.

Yea people are crazy, so why would you defend something that makes them even less attached to reality??

Yea go ahead and get back to me when a birthday party involves killing someone and celebrating it.

Life satisfaction of the mentally unstable is a curious measure to go by. Everybody knows being totally fine in an unhealthy world is a sign of mental disorder itself…

Nope. I know what the religions do, and you are in denial.

I hate to break it to you, but those 66% are conducting crusades… Just look at all the fucking brainless Christogooners celebrating the war on Iran…

No, not all Christians/Islamists are bad, but their religions are.

Anyone who answers other than 5 is a fucking idiot.

Silencing the inner monologue over the most bsnal explanations and/or wishful thinking ever is … a mental disorder.

There is much wrong with the world. To pretend otherwise is at best denial.

I remember plenty. Do not pretend to speak for everyone. My parents were and are stupid bigots. Do not pretend I will perpetuate such ignorant beliefs.
