Yes, but from what I heard there are aliens that fuck with humans.
I would never fuck with an alien, unless she was kinda sexy.

Well, Republicans made an illegal alien a First Lady, they overthrew Roe V Wade and they increased tariffs to 150 percent
I still dont know whats up with 150% tariffs. I dont think even Republicans expected that Trump will do this. Its insane.

I think aliens probably exist. I dont think only 1 planet is "lucky" enough to have life on it. But how those aliens look like, are they advanced and how advanced they are, or what they want from us is difficult to guess. Today, government has many ways to create "fake aliens" with the technology it has. How much of what we see are actual aliens and how much is it government doing own experiments is difficult to guess. However, I think aliens wouldnt have much use of humans, at least not right now. Maybe they are waiting for humans to reach a higher stage. If aliens had great interest in humans right now, they would probably show up immediatelly in large numbers. What we see from evidence so far is that aliens act more like scouts and observers, not as conquerors... yet.

In classical mythology, Cupid /ˈkjuːpɪd/ (Latin: Cupīdō [kʊˈpiːdoː], meaning "passionate desire") is the god of desire, erotic love, attraction and affection. He is often portrayed as the son of the love goddess Venus and the god of war Mars. He is also known as Amor /ˈɑːmɔːr/ (Latin: Amor, "love"). His Greek counterpart is Eros.[1] Although Eros is generally portrayed as a slender winged youth in Classical Greek art, during the Hellenistic period, he was increasingly portrayed as a chubby boy. During this time, his iconography acquired the bow and arrow that represent his source of power: a person, or even a deity, who is shot by Cupid's arrow is filled with uncontrollable desire. In myths, Cupid is a minor character who serves mostly to set the plot in motion. He is a main character only in the tale of Cupid and Psyche, when wounded by his own weapons, he experiences the ordeal of love. Although other extended stories are not told about him, his tradition is rich in poetic themes and visual scenarios, such as "Love conquers all" and the retaliatory punishment or torture of Cupid.

I was thinking, and yeah, I could be a good moderator on this site. If you think about it, I do satisfy all the standards expected from a debate site. First, I am open minded and supporter of free speech. That means I wont ban anyone who debates anything, and will argue for even more free speech on the site. Then I am on this site for like 12 hours a day, so always available. Also, in case of conflicts between users, I will work to calm it down and return focus to debate. I will also promote a policy of "ban as a last resort", so I pretty much wont be banning anyone unless they are actually hurting others. I believe most things can be solved with conversation, and I am a perfect person to do this because I am always here and I see everything on this site. Also, I basically already write many rules on this site, so why not give me even more power? 🤔

Do you know anyone who traded his iPhone for a Samsung?
Cheapest latest iphone (iphone 16) costs like 600$, and has worse specifications than 250$ Samsung. Iphone maybe scores high on camera tests, but it really fails badly in all other areas, especially in area of apps. Samsung has two app stores, samsung store and play store. Play store alone has 2 times more apps than whole store available to iphone. Iphone battery life also usually sucks, and battery is much smaller compared to other brands. Camera is just 48 megapixels, which means that images in bright light are worse and have less details. You can find phones offering over 100 megapixels for 600$. So really, even if I wanted to pay 600$ for a smartphone, it still wouldnt be iphone.

There is new Samsung A26 for like 250$. Some older models cost even less. My Samsung is one of the cheapest models, from 2019, but it has knox security and many other security features. Samsung combines android OS security with their own security system, so its best security of both worlds.

Another one about Samsung phones is that they have such strong security that even if someone steals your phone, phone is actually impossible to unlock. It has one of the strongest security systems a phone can have.

I eat healthy because I want the result of being healthy
If there were more diseases, everyone would have to eat healthy. Vaccines removed diseases and now most people eat garbage from the store because they can.

Samsung has anti virus built in. Thats basic protection which I assume most phones have anyway.
But it also has knox security system, which protects phone at each layer. Fun stuff.
On top of that, there is maximum power saving mode which acts as security as well because it shuts down all apps except few selected ones. If you enable "limit apps" option, all apps except the ones you select are shut down until you allow them.
But there is even much more. If you enable "Developer mode" in your phone, there are two more security options there. One is to not allow any backround processes, called "Limit backround processes". The other is to destroy any activity as soon as user leaves it.
And finally, cleaning RAM basically shuts down everything thats left.
These options not only significantly speed up phone by shutting down activities and freeing up resources for apps you actually use, but they act as such strong security that hacking a phone set up in this way is actually impossible.
Additional security from hacking comes from the fact that you can disconnect from internet when you dont use internet, making any hack attempts much more difficult.
Further, it is not possible to install anything on the phone without user's permission, due to "stop unknown apps" system which doesnt let unchecked apps install.

They made Oromagi a mod, so someone had the ability before. I dont know if it can be done now tho. Oromagi tried to ban me as a mod, but failed. What WyIted doesnt realize here is that even if he somehow becomes a mod, he wont be the only mod, and will still have to convince other mods to ban me. Besides, mods arent elected by popular vote, but even if they were, I somehow doubt WyIted would win that one. He wouldnt even be president now if I voted for RM instead of him.

So WyIted failed to become a moderator and failed to ban me? Maybe his hacking skills can make up for these terrible defeats.

Vaccines are also cause of poor diet. When people are "safe" from diseases, they have no incentive to eat healthy or live healthy. Safety was always the cause of degradation, and it is always the struggle which makes people stronger, not safety.

@n8nrgim
all I have to do is post a credible source that says they are effective
You would think, but no. Health of society has never been worse. Vaccines simply contradict natural selection and contradict inherited immunity. Without natural selection, species degrade. Ask AI if you dont know this. Its kinda like people trying to prove that psychology is a useful science, yet countries which have more psychologists have worse mental health outcomes and more suicides, and investing in this "science" didnt improve anything over decades. You can go around saying vaccines are good, but really, they are just sterilization. Now you have more disorders than ever before, and rate of disorders increases each year. As one person said, through struggle, man becomes great. Remove the struggle, and you end up with weakness.

I am yet to see someone successfully defend vaccines in a debate. Somehow countries with more vaccines given dont actually have better health outcomes, even tho you would think more vaccines = more health.

Great for taking pictures and video
I can get Samsung phone with higher video recording resolution, more megapixels on camera. And I can get it at much lower price than that iphone. Samsung phones with similar specifications as that iphone cost 200$ to 300$.

Dont get me wrong, I could save up money to buy iphone, but its very fucking expensive, even the cheapest models cost a lot, and I am not exactly convinced that its better than android phone.
I am looking at this iphone, and sure, I could barely afford this one, but what exactly are the benefits?

When money is printed it only benefits institutions and the people getting paid. The poor would be the hardest hit by thus new massive inflation
This is false. When government prints money to pay for some poor guy's healthcare, it directly benefits the poor guy. Sure, I would prefer a basic income for the poor instead, but your government chose healthcare. So when poor guy gets his healthcare, it benefits him. When taxes are abolished on buisnesses, buisnesses can give lower prices, which again benefits the poor guy. As it was explained before, your government takes 7 trillions from economy. It doesnt matter too much to inflation if it does this through taxes or money printing, but money printing saves money and increases amount of money in economy, which enables buisnesses to earn more money and to pay their workers better, as number of buisnesses is increased and competition for workers thus increases. The problem in your argument is that you assume how regular taxes dont cause inflation, which couldnt be further from truth.
Created:
USA prints 2 trillions every year and has like 2% inflation. Printing the remaining 5 trillions instead of using taxes would at best raise inflation to 6%, but buisnesses no longer having to pay taxes might cause them to lower prices of their products, as their costs are reduced, thus prices can be reduced too. And with no tax collecting system, money is additionally saved by not being forced to pay all the people who manage and collect taxes, further saving money for both buisnesses and government, reducing cost, saving money and enabling lower prices. And prices can only rise if demand rises, and if demand rises, its because people now have more money.

Property tax exemptions for lower class or personal residence is a good idea, as I said

@n8nrgim
Printing money causes inflation which is regressive hurting lower classes the most
Taxes cause inflation too and make buisnesses and investments much more difficult, but unlike taxes, printing money increases amount of money in economy, so all people have more money. Same is not true for taxes.

Property taxes instead of income could be ok
Yeah, right, if I had to pay property taxes as well as buisness taxes, my small buisness would perish. Sure, I own land. It doesnt mean I make bunch of money from it, and the taxes would cancel what little profit I earn.

@Greyparrot
All taxes are government taking money from people. The only solution to deficit is replacing tax system with limited money printing (print dollars equal to 20 to 25% of GDP). This is the most simple solution which also saves money, as other ways of tax collecting are way more expensive. Also, many people find ways to avoid taxes, so money printing is more fair.

Would you buy a used EV that is out of warranty with 100,000 plus miles on it?
No. I use my money for better things, like food. I would never buy a car, let alone drive one. Also, I am never getting driver license. It doesnt exactly fit into my economy when my monthly income is less than 200$ even without having a car. Plus, cars hurt animal persons, so having them is a crime against nature.

I do like power, but relationships are all about cuddling, sweet talk and rubbing each other's genitals. If there is fighting for power, then it might not exactly be a healthy lasting relationship.

I have a Moto G7. I paid $49 for it at a Dollar General.
I am tempted to buy a used phone, but its kinda risky because you never know the condition its in. Still, 49$ is a very good price. Cant really lose much there, considering that new phone would cost me about 300$.

The Pixel it's the only one where you can install alternative OS's on and that is reasonably high quality
I dont really need an alternative OS. Not sure what would be the point, when android OS has all the attention from app developers. Its maybe fun for programmers.
I didnt give much thought to Pixel on other issues tho. Usually, what I want is a cheap price, good battery, decent speed, plenty of memory for apps, and maybe a decent camera. Well, I will see what they come up with.

Ok, I read that LG doesnt produce new smartphones anymore, so that leaves Samsung or maybe some of those Chinese brands.

No more serious topics for some time. I cant handle listening about Trump anymore. There are probably 500000 comments about him on this site. So, onto something new, shall we?
My phone is, probably, going to die in the next 2 or 3 years. I bought it in 2019 and it has worked fine since then. Its Samsung A10. Made in Vietnam. When it comes to phones, you could say I had bad luck, choosing bad brands. My first smartphone was Nokia. Cant remember the exact name. Symbian OS was terrible. First, very few apps for it, cant use most android apps. Camera was also not really like in android phones. It wasnt much worse, but it definitely felt lacking. Later, I got LG. Much better camera, and an android system is so much better than that symbian crap. My another device was some cheap Chinese tablet, but its battery died completely and cant turn it on anymore. And my current device is Samsung. Now, camera wasnt great in Samsung, but it improved a lot after I updated the system. But what I am really impressed by is battery life. It could be that I took better care of battery, didnt charge it over 85%. Normally battery lasts all day with constant use, but with maximum power saving mode, limiting CPU to 70%, limiting apps mode, it even lasts somewhat longer than a day. This is impressive given that it was bought over 5 years ago and that its cheap smartphone. My Nokia had terrible battery in comparison. Had to charge it even when I am not using it because its battery constantly and quickly drained even when turned off.
So I wonder what my next device will be. Maybe Samsung again or LG. But I do like changes. I cant really afford an iphone, and I probably wouldnt even want to given that android has more apps. I would hate to not be able to use apps I use right now.
So, what are your favorite brands?

modern medicine allowed misfits to reproduce?
Its not really complicated. Defective people who reproduce are more likely to produce defects. Women giving birth after 30 are more likely to give birth to defects. Simply put, smoking, alcohol, drugs... all the things which increase probability of defects, when applied a lot on a mass scale end up with giving more defects. Same goes with vaccines. Remove natural selection and the defective ones reproduce as much as fit ones.
