It is like your debate with me on here, you think you know it all until it's too late.

I don't need your enforcement if I am going to be the enforcer in the mods.

You should, unless you're intentionally being cunning and ruthless, make yourself Con to the opposite of the resolution 5.

This/that thinking is going to lead to you IRRATIONALLY being in support of bad news purely because it's centrist politically even if the correct ideology is not centrist or if the biased news source offers truth despite being biased.

I believe it is not, instead it is a necessary limit to make the being real. All real things have limits.

Serial Killers
I am a huge student of the psychopathic mindset as it taught me a lot about how to deal with them and also how to become ruthless and a winner in life without losing my emotions along the way.

I can explain both the psychopath and the sociopath to you and why one becomes a serial killer.

It is actually neither.

There is absolutely no way to say that in all situations a bad change is worse than no change in the long run.

A very good example is how the Atkin's diet or meat-only diets work. They force the body to hate the diet so much that it begins to actively get rid of toxins that were just sitting around as they weren't too potent.

Similarly, if 9/11 was an inside job it was likely still a benevolent act in the grand scheme of things so as to make us root out the evil that Sharia law and Islam are to the world.

A negative change can often lead us to either fight back harder against a malignant thing we were tolerating or alternatively can be so negative that we really were better off with no change.

There's another angle of this that's different to both and supports drafterman (so 2 of the three angles do support drafterman's take) which is that a negative change can tell us what not to do in the future which ends up being a positive gain in net worth.

@Mister_Man
I am left-leaning overall and identify as a social democrat which is more centrist than 'progressive' but in the options on this site there's no soc-dem so I chose prog.

As for your comment here:
I am beginning to realise that. I hope we are both wrong.
in reply to this:
For some here, that is a positive thing.
I am curious who you are referring to. I am unsure if you think the fact that Islam allows this in their scriptures is something people like me are happy about, we aren't.

Islam is an extremely conservative culture based on the disgusting right-wing mentality of preying on the vulnerable so don't call me right-wing again and do not confuse the left for not hating Islam. We loathe it, but those that do are afraid of the sheep on our side.

Homeschool.....
I think that school is net detrimental whereas homeschooling is net beneficial.

This may seem nonsensical but there's a reason why 'I hate school' is said much more than 'I love school' and why 'I don't mind school' is said far more than 'I dislike school'. Those that suffer in school suffer immensely and those that don't suffer in school do not at all love it because it's never ever tailored to them.

Homeschooling does open parents who abuse children up to easier ability to contain the victim but when it comes down to it, I guarantee you that the type of people who are private tutors etc are far more likely to spot a child's psychological scars and signs of neglect and/or abuse than an ordinary school teacher.

The biggest flaw of home-schooling is perhaps when it's done via online courses only as this truly enables abusive parents to keep their child contained but one thing about the online world is that it's far easier to type out a traumatic truth than to say it out loud in words so the argument ends up negated by the likelihood the student will email a teacher or fellow online friend of whatever kind about their situation and then the person on the other side of the screen, if at all local, can help get the police involved.

"School" as we know it is not malignant, it's just not great in any way at all and that to me is like guaranteed suboptimal education for someone.

Some of my thoughts on Bitcoin
I find it hilarious anyone would trust Bitcoin.

It's run by who? Exactly. Cryptocurrency is even more corrupt than banks and money are because it doesn't even have any legally liable reason to not completely run away with that number on your screen at any time.

I find it funny that the same side who support gun rights oppose Islam but the side who supports severe gun control and banning guns altogether supports it.

Islam is a weapon, some use it very wrong and it's quite like a gun. It needs to be outlawed because of the harm it does.

End of discussion for me personally. I will admit that I wouldn't dare say this in front of most people in real life.

I'm saying the likes of Family Guy and American Dad are completely stupid.

I will admit that Futurama and Simpsons have some very intelligent jokes at times but it's too infrequent to stimulate me.

If this was a real debate I'd use dictionary sources to win here, that's how ridiculous this is.
