Trapped with two Leopards has absolutely no viable strategy.
Unlike lions, wolves, tigers or really any creature similar to them in the food chain other than some very aggressive snakes, leopards are pure psychopaths especially in scenarios of disputed territory.

With almost all other predators after either a stare down (with lions and tigers) or combined stare down with some tactical hits (with wolves) you can fundamentally make the creature respect you and consider you a worthy adversary who isn't erratic such that it will leave you in peace even when your back is turned and you're stroking it etc.

The thing with leopards is there's never an 'okay we're buddies' stage. They will wait for hours playing nice and hunt you the moment you sleep or let your guard down with back turned etc.

It's much worse than lions even in the way they attack, leopards like to keep their prey alive and bleeding out slow so it keeps a good taste throughout the eating session if they happen to get full before they finish it.

Leopards are truly cruel creatures.

Do you think the devil has friends?
The devil (Bible edition, as opposed to Islamic version or whatever else) is a severe victim and outcast.

He is the weird kid in class who resented the alpha male amongst the Preps AND Jocks both.

You need to understand that if the devil is presumed to be Lucifer who is cast down, the devil is actually a rebel to a tyrant painted as something deeply sinister.

Alternatively (and I believe this is true if Christianity is true), if Satan is not Lucifer at all but instead is a more cunning and ruthless persona of God himself, Satan has no friends at all indeed and that is by design to enable God's split personality disorder to unleash such that one side is worshipped to by respect and fear whereas the other side is feared but disrespected entirely.

God's personas both have a kinky desire for being feared but God sometimes likes to be loathed and spoken ill of while at other times enjoys being disrespected.

The reason I leave Islam out of this is both to avoid offending certain dangerous types and because Allah vs Shaitan is a much more abstract rivalry and war. Shaitan is actually a non-personality, it's like Venom in Spiderman, it takes form of others who are misled.

@Reece101
Men's hair grows faster not for evolutionary direct-reason but evolutionary accidental carry-over. Testosterone is a growth-enhancing hormone of nails, muscle and even bone. These are indeed to do with protection and tenacity pre-fights and post-fights.

Nails are made from keratin, so is hair. That is the only reasom why males grow hair faster than females do.

Before you ask, hairier men in terms of thicker hair especially on areas that aren't necessarily helpful (ears, stomach, anus etc) are usually high in testosterone vs the norm but the correlation isn't direct. The genes regarding more pores of hair unleashing during and after puberty aren't the same genes linked to how fast a man's hair grows. There is indeed correlation because of coincidence since men with slower hair growth with more pore openings rarely benefitted from it (it also is taxing, men with very hairy bodies need more protein and calcium than men who have less, yet the slower growth wouldn't benefit them much at all).

You may assume being hairier was most useful in colder climates especially during the ice age but the correlation is just not there. Brown asians are the hairiest with blacks being second hairiest and neither thrived in cold climates. Inuits are some of the least hairiest of us all and obviously had cold climate as a significant factor during their evolution. It is simply related to sensitivity to testosterone.

Brown Asians are the race with the highest amount of females who are also hairy (we don't notice in this day and age thanks to shaving, waxing, hair-removal creams and lazer hair-removal technology). So their sensitivity to testosterone in the body even applies to females who do have a small amount in their bodies.

What Would You Ideally do if You Fell Into a Lion Inclosure From an Overview?
-->
@Reece101
I would not run, I told what I'd actually do. Lions can't sense fea rlike canines can so being scared doesn't matter if you don't physically display it.

If yoyr question was about two hungry and aggressive wolves, my answer would be closer to what Wylted's was but definitely don't aim for the inside of the mouth, that's stupid. Aim for the neck, stomach and at worst a slap/push tonthe side of the animal's head as it gies for a bite (they are weak at defending while attacking innthe same move, it's the one fighting weakness that almost all bite-based predators have in common).

Wolves respond to sudden aggression with respect and fear. Lions respond to sudden aggression with fury and violence.

This is about lions, your only shot at victory is in letting them feel comfortable and respectful around you.

What you do is shove your arm down their throat as far as possible, so they will choke to death on it. People have survived bear attacks this way, I am sure it works for lions also
DO NOT FOLLOW THE QUOTED ADVICE

It doesn't, lions are much more calculated with their bite angle than bears are. Bears have long,snouted mouths and are not as intelligent with how they use their hands and mouth in a fight, lions are extremely adept at the angle of their bites. They will notice you trying to put your arm into their mouth and use their front paws to pull your arm away, this is a habit they have with any/all fights vs armed/legged beings when biting them. 

If you watch a lion/lioness hunting a creature with long limbs (so basically something taller than a warthog), they 'tuck in' the front legs of the creature and use their own hind legs to both balance and immobilise the prey's hind legs, tripping them up tactically. A lion will not fall for you trying to punch its throat, it truly will end with you mauled beyond repair at best or you dead at worst.

Lions are extremely emotionally reactive creatures in a sadistic manner. If you show fear, they respond with aggression, if you show too much aggression their version of fear includes aggression anyway, only calm with confidence settles them.

Double Standard For Females
I'll tell you the real double standard, no trolling.

Slim males are the most ignored of them all. We are teased and made to flinch even, both by the fat and the muscular our entire fucking childhood and adolescence and nobody defends us because only the overweight deserve sympathy according to society.

I am not the only dude who experienced this, one of my bullies growing up was a skinny victim himself picking on the next viable target.

If you are a long haired man or woman, have your hair properly out, lions perceive any lack of hair as a signal of inferiority.

If you are totally bald, that is fine too.

If you have thin hair on your head steadily cover it and make a makeshift hat, do this slowly.

Lions have a perception that hair on the head signifies dominance of some kind in another being, it's why they attack creatures like zebra who have only a mohican style hairdo. This isn't a joke it's genuinely lion psychology.

If the lion growls, do NOT growl back or bare your teeth. Appear calm yet alpha, have shoulders broad, stare it in the eyeball never ONCE looking away. There is always one lion more alpha than the other in such a duo scenario, deal with the alpha, the beta won't initiate.

What Would You Ideally do if You Fell Into a Lion Inclosure From an Overview?
I have alpha energy, it's all about the scenario and how you conduct yourself.

(Unlike wolves or leopards) lions and tigers work on bluffing concepts to judge the fight's worth.

If you seem ready yet don't approach them and everything about your body language makes the lion feel you're ready to fight it if need be without making it panic, the lion will stay tame, the same is true for tigers.

Leopards and wolves work different. If they're ready to attack a human, you need to hurt them hard and fast, they then either back away or need another hard strike to the stomach or something.

I don't condone animal abuse, only use in absolute emergency. I love animals, I just know that feral creatures must be understood if one wishes to survive an encounter with them, unscathed.

Conspiracy Theories you believe
I think that the Illuminati/Elite are behind their primary opposition in the conspiracy theory realm, havinf controlled opposition such as Alex Jones, David Icke and the likes give intentionally irrational and exaggerated outlooks (especially that the FILTHY RICH, CAPITALIST elite are somehow COMMUNISTS???).

They are carefully ensuring that the most passionate of their haters ends up opposing those whom could actually stop them (the left wing politicians who really believe in social democratic values).

This began many centuries ago hut only truly unleashed primarily in the UK post-Thatcher.

Funnily enough it was Thatcher, the most right-Wing UK leader ever, who suggested global warming be researched with government funding, it was then her most ardent supporters innthe public who turned around in the next generation and called global warming a left-wing hoax.

These things are always amusing if we ignore how sick and twisted it all is.

Wylted is wrong. MJ really was a pedophile, the conspiracy is how the fucking piece of shit was able to get away with it legally speaking.

If it turns out suddenly based on later evidence that is revealed, that MJ was killed as opposed to it being an accident, I am not going to really bat an eyelid. The fact Eminem was the only mainstream artist to have the guts to bash MJ and properly take a stance against him (music video of Just Lose It) is one of many reasons I respect Em despite him being a misogynistic narcissist.

At present there are 9 threads of deep conspiracy theory and extreme misinformation/disinformation by Wylted with the tag 'RM' attached.

This is solely done to harass me just as this thread is being done to callout and get a consensus from other users on the matter.

Wylted supported freedom of speech so I am pretty sure he will not oppose me calling him out on this. He may well claim to have done it with benign intent, assuming I'd be interested and that I support his conspiracy theories but that assumption is indeed an unreasonable one and I can tell you that I don't support his threads at all, even when I partially discussed skepticism about mRNA vaccines he uses 'does' when he means 'can' in the thread's title, making a direct accusation rather than an abject hypothesis.

You say 'alot faster' but Pfizer, which I believe was the first, was only around 1 month faster than AstraZeneca. Maybe I am understanding the situation wrong and maybe UK was nearly singlehandedly responsible for both things happening so rapidly but it appears to me the 'so much faster' factor, considering how long since March 2020 it took to invent the vaccines vs the ~1 month disparity, it isn't really that much faster unless I'm understanding something wrong.

In America, it's true that JJ took significantly longer vs Pfizer and also vs Moderna. JJ was produced with significant delay but I don't think research time was the reason (I actually don't know why they were so late).

@FLRW
I know someone IRL who I trust and is in the medical field. I asked/discussed about motives to invent mRNA vaccines and now have realised two legitimate ones:

  1. People with partial/reaction-delay (not completely innate) immunodeficiency are not suited well risk-wise to AZ/JJ-type vaccines but (unlike those with severe innate immunodeficiency) can indeed benefit significantly from mRNA vaccination.
  2. While the research towards it was costlier and just as time-consuming, the physical production of mRNA vaccines is cheaper and even easier to maintain (viruses need to be extremely refrigerated or even frozen while mRNA is less severe in this respect and has longer span before expiry).

mRNA vaccines revolutionised vaccination because what happened was suddenly we skip the 'simulated fight' and just give materials and instructions to cells that let them almost instantly know how to fight the Covid-19 virus.

This is great, it works. It also could potentially mean other instructions, with far more subtle effect, are given. I do not believe they are, I believe it's potentially viable by an mRNA vaccine designed by some of the best genetics-specialised innovators at present.

Something I have noticed that the News articles 'shutting down' the mRNA conspiracy theories do wrong is they confuse 'does' with 'can'.

Can mRNA trigger extremely calculated, subtle changes to DNA when made by the most advanced genetic scientists on our planet? Yes, for sure. 

Does/Do Pfizer and Moderna do this? Na, probably not at least certainly not according to the articles. In the end how would we really know? Those that knew could easily be silenced, don't deny it.

I'm also skeptical, I won't lie. mRNA isn't something we should be injecting into our bodies so readily. Unfortunately, mRNA vaccine (Pfizer) is the only one available in some nations to the younger age groups (below 30).

I'll recommend conspiracy theorists of younger age groups just sit it out and wait for the AstraZeneca, JJ or something to be available but AZ has fatal blood clots as a potential side effect so ultimately schoolgoers and college students who really do need to get vaccinated due to daily contact with others will end up needing to surrender and get the mRNA, I am curious what the need to alter DNA is though. Why did mRNA vaccines need to be invented?

HUMANS ARE NOT TRASH
I just want to say that GreyParrot has a point and I say this even as a feminist.

Housewives and their dependency on the breadwinning male isn't just a social construct, it also is/was natural for females to fall into role-wise, especially more submissive females who had a tendency to be highly skilled at childcare and wide-spread in talents (as opposed to streamlined for a career in a single path).

Being a housewife isn't at all an easy job, you are doing what a hired maid, babysitter, cook and in-house secretary would do for the family all by yourself. Anybody who thinks being a housewife is the 'easy way out' is solely referring to those that marry men who hire the said maid, babysitter, cook and in-house planner/secretary such that the 'housewife' is in fact doing nothing towards the raising of the children.

Teens tend to identify, politically, as one of the following:

  • Anarchists
  • Libertarians
  • Socialists
  • "Fuck politics it's a Scam"
  • "Screw politics, both Wings are corrupt but Anarchy is silly so I'm a Centrist"

So, I agree in part. Libertarianism suddenly seems sophisticated amongst teens since the political-ideological stances they have to compare to it are often extremely impractical and lacking depth, only Socialism actually can realistically hold up.
