You don’t win people over by getting upset at them. I can only hope you find peace in your life eventually. I remember being in my militant atheist phase.
Good luck.

This isn’t a a debate. I gave someone a suggestion on how to be happier that has scientific basis showing it works in doing that. I even gave other suggestions.
I hope you can find peace in life if you’re this hostile to someone bringing in something you dislike. Good day.
Even in European countries there are two dominant parties that work with others on their side of the aisle. In fact the concept of a left and right comes from France.
Polarization is universal in politics at the scales or democracy.
I feel many people are so privileged on both sides of politics that they have nothing better to do than to create their own problems.
Most people believe in God, so you’re arguing most people are being swindled, implying they are not intelligent enough to come to their own conclusions on the existence of a higher power. That is a very pessimistic view of reality I think, especially when people such as Galileo, Darwin, and Newton were very religious themselves.
Yes. Politically militant people are becoming more common. This time last month people seemed to have been much more agreeable even if they didn’t agree with you.
Where did I say religion works for everyone? I gave it as one example of something that worked for me and clearly works for billions of others.
I’ve had awful experiences with the mental health system, but I think getting triggered by someone saying therapy worked for them makes sense. Sorry to hear you suffered.
Yes. Many religious people including myself feel happy. That’s one method.
Others find a purpose in their life to drive toward or dedicate themselves to. Be it art, friends, family, work, learning etc.
I would suggest looking at what you want from life, and asking yourself what the first step is to achieving that. I find that I’m at my happiest when I’m keeping on track with my goals.
If I didn’t graduate high school I would probably just lie to get my foot in the door.
Thanks. I’ve noticed there’s many LGBT people in general who seem to feel this way, so it’s always nice to hear from others who do too.
I’m sick of how unhinged people get about trans people, especially from those in the left. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had my identity invalidated by people simply because I disagree with them on something socially or politically. These people claim to be my allies but the moment I don’t fit their stereotype of a trans person it’s like I’m not even a person to them anymore.
What those kinds of people have done to my brother as well pisses me off to no end. It’s disgusting how a political group claims to be your friend only to try and harm you if you don’t act the way they want you to. That’s what abusers and cultists do.
When the American republic becomes the American Empire and companies become divinely chosen aristocrats. Not an impossible outcome.
Never. They are cheap and work, and nicer underwear isn’t so much nicer that it’s worth the extra money. It’s underwear, it’s not like other people are going to see it.
Many people, including myself personally, have been telling people how much of a liar he is for at least 6 or 7 years at this point. Ever since the “hyperloop” nonsense got big.
Pleasantly surprised with SpaceX and Starlink delivering, but even those are plagued by Musk over promising in what is actually doable.
I work in a warehouse after quitting my logistics job where I was managing a forklift team. If I ever have to work in an office again I’ll just quit and find someplace else to work. I can’t stand middle class people who think they’re better than the working class just because they have a degree. It’s ironic how they kept making the dumbest possible decisions and expected no one with logistical sense to say “that’s not actually feasible”.
You think someone with a college education could understand that if you take 3 boxes in and only send 2 boxes out, you’re eventually going to fill an entire warehouse.
When people get offended on behalf of others, especially when their stupidity harms the people they claim to be offended for.
Case in point, the Hogwarts Legacy situation. It made trans people look unhinged by association, even though the seemingly vast majority of them were cis progressives.
And if I as a trans person mention how I don’t feel represented and don’t appreciate what they are doing? Suddenly I’m a Russian troll or something. So stupid.
Social media. It wasn’t until very recently that people started to realize just how harmful it actually is.
They can’t fry nerves or anything? My Grandmother has spine issues related to an accident and had that done a few times, so perhaps it’s something you could ask for? Sorry to hear you’re going through the pain though, I don’t think most people realize how awful chronic pain is.
Lemmy.world is run by Mastodon, while lemmy.ml is run by unapologetic socialists/communists.
One doesn’t really have a political focus while the other one has at least officially associated itself with such beliefs.
Thanks to the federated nature of lemmy, if you don’t like the way an instance is run you are free to go to another instance. If you want to be in an instance that will align with your beliefs, then you have that option as well. Isn’t it wonderful?
