The Right’s opinions are not fact based, so you cannot convince them with facts
Most rightwing supporters are driven by their emotions, and fall prey to fear mongering and emotional manipulation related to their already existing beliefs like racism and xenophobia.
To change emotional based beliefs you need to use compassion. They are not your enemy. They are misguided and manipulated souls that need help.
Treat them as your best friend
They won’t be open to arguments if they think you’re the devil. So you have to be their friend.
It’s not necessary to explain everything to them. You can’t change someone’s world view in one conversation. Just show that you’re a reasonable person that is trying to understand them. Gently ask them what their beliefs are and don’t be confrontational. With a bit of time they will open their eyes by themselves.
Not easy. but I think that this is what effectively creates change.
Why shouldn’t people use windows?
You can’t expect the average person to be tech savvy enough to use Linux and most people cannot afford a Mac. Especially in developing countries.
Windows is the best OS for the average person. Just not for advanced users such as researchers
Consult a job coach. They will help you explore areas of your interest and expose you to jobs you didn’t know existed
So you’re saying that everyone that dislikes anime “just doesn’t get it” ? That’s a pretty silly take.
I’ve watched about 100 different shows and all kinds of anime genres over many years but I stopped because I can’t do it anymore
Most Anime shows suffer from the same issues. Personally The 2 most difficult things to deal with in are:
- Incredibly frustrating dialogue
I hate how characters speak in an extremely unrealistic and cringy way. It throws me off every time and I can’t connect with the characters. It doesn’t need to be realistic dialogue of course. I just think that anime is very far removed from acceptable dialogue, even for a show
- Shows never go beyond their basic tropes
Edgy anime is edgy and then nothing else. Every slice of life is just that and nothing else. Everything is extremely formulaic and you’re just left with the characters. And the characters are unidimensional. Please add some substance to the plot. Create more human and imperfect characters. Every character represents a trope and has no more nuance than that. The clumsy character is just clumsy. The bully character is just a bully. The main character is either the smartest or the most powerful being in the universe. EVERY TIME.
Seinen anime is a bit better regarding this last point. but it’s still too much. I can’t sit through an episode without cringing several times. Especially over the dialogue
His cows gave birth. What do you mean traumatized?
Wait till you see Augustus Magnus the cat And his brother Brutus Maximus the other cat
Sure but in this case the judge is not censoring merely incorrect information. It’s written in the article that I assume you haven’t read
The judge ordered to remove the account of a militant group that attempted a coup after the party they support lost the election
This is exactly the kind of thing that should be censored. Anti democracy groups
It’s all appeal to emotion
A good narrative is captivating. It’s really simple and comforting to know that the world is good vs evil and you’re on the good side. Those guys are on the devil’s side and we must stop them at all costs or it will be THE END OF AMERICA!! ** Dramatic yelling **
It’s easy to convince less educated people using fear and misdirection. What are they gonna do? Check the sources and think critically about the topic? Lol
Convincing someone that thinks you’re their mortal enemy is difficult. That’s why you have to be their best friend. Show them that you care for their opinion and ask them to explain to you. Show genuine curiosity and then give them something to think about.
“Hey, I see your point man, but I don’t know enough about this so I’m not sure. Hey I’ve found this article that has some interesting points. What do you think?”
It’s not easy but I think this is what really creates change
Car guys are just the male equivalent of horse girls
Remember to be your enemy’s best friend!
when you criticize someone your objective is to help them form a better opinion. If you simply point out that their opinion is wrong it’s likely that they will consider your argument as an attack on their values or self. At this point the argumentation is of no value
Instead talk to them like you would talk to your best friend. Listen and try to understand where their concern comes from, and ask questions that make them have to analyse their own opinions.
You need to help them see what their biases/emotions won’t let them. It takes patience and compassion.
Do you mean that your sadness levels are consistent among all times you’re exposed to bad examples of this linguistic change?
Should it not be “constantly saddened”, meaning that sadness is caused often upon you when seeing such examples?
If this is the case, I can relate to that. Or should I say… it do be like that sometimes
This sounds so stupid in my head. I hate it
I’ve studied the bible to see what the fuss is about but I’m not religious. Now I have this knowledge in my head that I’m compelled to use when I’m bored.
So yeah, I’m basically pulling an☝️🤓 AcShUaLlY on this sort of discussion because I have nothing else to do right now
The 7 deadly sins are never mentioned in the bible. They were discussed by a few different people but made popular by Pope Gregory 1st in 590 AD. So therefore are an invention of the church and need to be taken with a grain of salt.
Pride especially is the most stupid one. Should Jhonny not be proud of his skills? Should one not be proud of anything to be able to go into heaven? If you earn a gold medal at a sport would you go to hell for saying that you were the best athlete?
And can we be sure that Jhonny accepted the bet because of greed for the fiddle? Could it not be necessity? Could it not be convenience or simply confidence in his skills?
Ultimately it’s just a story created for a song so the specifics don’t matter.
The point I’m making is that the 7 deadly sins are stupid and people should stop referencing them
The story of the devil and the fiddle is not in the bible.
It’s from the song “the devil went down to Georgia” from Charles Daniels.
The song is quite popular so references to it in popular culture are common. But that’s all it is. A story
What’s to see?
I wish people would see past the idea that millionaires are evil people (and yeah they are), and understand that the root of this issue is on the economic/governmental system that allows people to hoard this much wealth
Yes it’s dystopian as fuck how much money he’s able to make. But that’s not a result of him being evil or something. That’s a result of how the advertisement Industry works.
He’s just a guy that mastered the YouTube game and is doing what he’s good at. He could retire or take a more relaxed work routine and still be a millionaire. But he works a lot to make more YouTube content because he likes it.
I don’t like Mr. Beast. But don’t think he’s doing anything unethical
It’s absolutely fine if you don’t want to have kids
I don’t agree with the Antinatalist idea that having children is immoral. Or that Antinatalism reduces suffering.
If I’m incorrect please elaborate
Wow XD you are so quirky! Haha =P
Mine is a whale. Cause I’m big and fat and eat a lot of garbage and I shit everywhere XDDDD
