This is a great look at just got complicated the brain is. What we experience and are conciously aware of, is only a fraction of the activity in one's brain. People that are convinced their limbs aren't their own, people that lose

As is often the case, the media has a large part to play here too. Every time Elon posts a meme you can expect multiple articles written about it, along with paragraphs of indignant rage in the comments section. People just can't help

I mean it's a capitalism problem. Get rid of MBAs, people are still going to want to maximize profits and eventually will start cutting personnel to do that. The entire system encourages that exactly, isn't profit the only reason

I don't mean to by cynical, but this is kind of my feeling. Throughout the pandemic I saw story and story about nurses getting overworked and being underappreciated. There was lots of talk of a nurse exodus.. and yet it's never ha

The pay was good enough last year, what changed? In my opinon nursing has always been a difficult job, yet they've always had people lining up to become nurses. So it must be more than just 'the job is too demanding'.

Why? Nicotine has addiction rates on par with hard drugs while having only very mild benefits. It also tends to be really expensive. It won't make you homeless but it does suck

>these were only for the Jewish people. God had no problem commanding them to commit rape and genocide against out-groups. ..and when exactly did God command Jewish people to rape? This comment is very strange

Not directly related, but I heard during the Lia Thomas scandal one of the complaints against her was she changes in the women's locker room despite not having bottom surgery. It's kind of shocking how easily people accepted that,

This is closer to the truth, but it's weird how people are so passionate about either loving or hating him.

Isn't the reasoning for this whole thing humanitarian? That's why it's okay that many poor Russians will starve if the economy is successfully damaged. Seems losing a few jobs is worth saving lives

A product is published useful if it helps people in sunsaharan Africa? What a strange metric. NASA users Space X to launch their people to the ISS, they're singlehandedly reviving space aeronautics.

Well.. tbh some feminists supported the Afghanistan war based on "feminist grounds". Of course in reality the situation was only made much worse for women. No side is free of making bad choices

Because Modi is a Hindu nationalist and a majority of people from India are Hindu. His wide support has a lot more to do with the fact that he appeals to the majority with his supremacist rhetoric.

I'd argue people make things for money AND love. It's just the money you need to survive, and the love is just nice and fulfilling-- so you can guess what people end up hyperfocusing on
