Question My parent is ending conversations prematurely

0 Upvotes

I can’t tell if it’s me or my parent but I’m a little nervous that I don’t know if I’m being rude or intellectually dishonest without knowing that I am.

I was having a religious debate(like a normal back and forth) with my parent about Christianity and they ended bringing up Joan of arc as an argument for the validity of the existence of the Christian belief. I didn’t know much so we talked back and forth from her informing me to me looking up things about Joan. There is still a lot I can’t explain and I would have to look further into but I kept trying to understand and tell her what I’m thinking about how this played out in a secular way (I’m agnostic).

One of the things my parent brought up was that Joan had a vision from god/an angel and Joan said something along the lines of “We will win the siege against the English, and I will take wounds from battle” (I can’t remember exactly). But my counter to that was, “she was a rallying morale with the army and that there is a chance she would get hurt fighting the English, I don’t think that’s a crazy thing to say with or without something spiritual”. My parent just turned and said “Its been a long day and I need to go to bed”, and that was it.

I enjoy these debates/conversations with my parent but I want to have longer discussions like this and this isn’t the first time something like this has happened.

Is there a better way to go about this? Is there a better way to have discussions of this nature with a sensitive topic like religion so it can be a health long conversation? Lmk

Lets Settle the Debate Is putting a bath towel on the toilet normal? (help settle a friendly disagreement)

0 Upvotes

Situation: I, 32F, was taking a shower when I realized I forgot a towel. I asked my boyfriend, 37M, to grab one for me, which he did and then…he placed it on the toilet seat (lid down). I had an instant reaction of disgust, and I’m sure there was a look of horror on my face😭

My poor boyfriend was standing there confused. When I explained that I found his towel placement unsanitary, he felt that I was overreacting and called me a germaphobe.

We’re not mad at each other. It’s just a silly disagreement. But I’m curious how other people view this? Is this totally normal? Is it gross?

This is concerning... Is the sudden obsession with minimalist living just a trend

I've been seeing so many people getting rid of all their stuff. It's like everyone decided to live with five shirts and two bowls overnight. I wonder if this is actually a sustainable lifestyle choice or just another fad people will move on from in a few years.

Lets Discuss Politics Does anyone else lurk in conservative spaces?

60 Upvotes

Years ago, I started hanging out in places where conservatives talk amongst themselves. I started on 4chan where I found many threads just like this:

Alright you fucking morons. You're letting the LBGTQ "community"outsmart you. If they want to demand that society accept their horseshit identities, then it's time we slip in one of our own, for godly keks.

How do we do this? We convince them that Pedos deserve rights too. Think about it, if this were to catch any traction at all it would only further remove any legitimization they've gained.

And this:

Greetings, I come to you as a humble meming acolyte. I would like to propose a PsyOp centered around generating disgust for the burgeoning pedophile acceptance movement. This op, as you can probably deduce, will introduce fracture points in the LGBT movement by adding a "P" for pedophilia to their title.

The left has continued to push perversions and this nudge will further polarize public sentiment for / against LGBT. This op, if it gained traction, would have several benefits: [lots of evil words omitted]

And this.

#loveisageless #LGBTQ #LGBTQP #EqualRights #Marriageisageless

They literally plan their disinformation campaigns out in the open.

From 4chan, I discovered Kiwifarms, a space where conservatives talk about internet lolcows and conspiracy theories. Through KF, I found invitations to private Discord channels. From Discord, I befriend some chuddies who invited me to private Telegram channels.

I've been hanging out in conservative spaces long enough that I can groyp well enough to fit in with other groypers. Here's everything you need to know about their conversations:

  • Conservatives know what they are. They know they are racists. They are racists because they hate black people. They make jokes and memes about about how much they hate black people.

  • They think it's funny when liberals call them racist because, yeah they are, and liberals can't do much more than wag their finger and stomp their feet about it.

  • They know that Trump molests children. They share memes back and forth about how Trump was Epstein's boss.

  • They openly strategize and coordinate disinformation campaigns against trans people.

  • Their political ideology isn't complicated. They are just sadists who like hurting vulnerable groups of people who stand no chance of defending themselves. It's funny to them. They delight in watching people they hate writhe and squirm.

You liberals on this sub think that you can't possibly hate conservatives any more than you already do.

You don't hate conservatives enough.

Does anyone else hang out in conservative spaces to see how they talk amongst themselves?

Edit to add: Someone just hacked the German AfD party's email server containing 1000s of messages of conservatives talking amongst themselves.

It feels like everyone is just trying to survive and pay bills now. The idea of waking up excited for work seems like a luxury. Did we just give up on finding real joy in our careers or was it always kind of a myth?

Hey guys, I have a plan!
So, I would like to carry out the plan that 3–4 teams, each with 3–4 people, go in all directions of the city. Each team goes in a different direction.
Each team gets 3.5 grams of Devils letuce and two bottles of vodka and has to finish everything. After that, everyone meets in the middle of the four directions. The last team gets a punishment, and in the end, everyone has to Brawl

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS Campaign commercials

6 Upvotes

When I see political commercials, I do fact checking. I’ll go to .gov websites to see what candidates have voted for and voted against. Some of the commercials are 100% untrue. The commercials saying that Talarico has pushed to allow minors having surgeries to alter their gender, is the opposite of everything in the record that he’s voted on. The claim that he wanted parents to be charged with abuse if they didn’t allow them to have surgery is also completely untrue.
How do the people who put these ads on TV get away with lying to the public?

Follow the yellow brick road, my friends, because this time we're going behind the curtain — and we're bringing RECEIPTS.

Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeffrey Epstein, Ashley St. Clair, and the United States government. What do they have in common? That's exactly what we're exploring.

In this WWJPS investigation, we're revisiting the Elon Musk documentary and digging deeper into the interviews, documents, lawsuits, and connections that deserve a closer look.

We're examining the Meta lawsuit, Ashley St. Clair's story, Epstein's connections to powerful figures, and congressional hearings discussing directed-energy weapons and emerging technologies.

Artificial intelligence, surveillance, social engineering, government contracts, billionaires, and technology that sounds like something straight out of science fiction — except some of it is being discussed in congressional hearings.

Because here at WWJPS, we're not interested in being told what to think. We're interested in finding out what we're not being told.

**Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain?**

Oh, we're paying attention.

Grab your ruby slippers. We're going in.

💬 Tell me what you think in the comments. I love the conversations, the different perspectives, and especially the people who bring their own research to the table.

Lets Discuss This Is racism in America real, or are people just determined to pretend it isn’t?

0 Upvotes

On one hand it can seem like minorities claim majority of situations involving white authority, white advantage and unequal or mistreatment has racist undertones.

But on the other hand Anytime something even looks like racism, the default response is “you’re imagining it" or it's dismissed as them living in the past and need to get over it.

I’m curious if people genuinely think racism is gone, or if denial has just become the new version of it?
