i understand even less when people are saying that when someone does something out of passion it should allow us to consume it for free

I’m not going to replay an ontological debate that has been happening in the fields of sociology and psychology for decades with an engineer on the internet, who claims his own rationality a bit too hard. MBTI is considered pseudoscience because of its weakness against proper scientific validation processes, as well as its lack of support among both practitioners, theorists and researchers in the academic circles.
But to be clear, just because knowledge isn’t scientific doesn’t mean it doesn’t have value, there are tons of example like that that we use every day. The main issue I have with MBTI is that it takes the appearance of scientific knowledge, which I find deceitful and thus suspicious.
It’s pseudoscience in both cases, saying you’re so and so because your personality is INFJ has almost as little value as correlating to being a gemini. Now if you find some sense in those personality types, maybe that contains some lessons.
well you gotta do what you gotta do
idiotic takes make them an idiot.
just before that comment i was in a thread where they (op hacktheprisons) insisted through dozen of comments that they’ve never seen anyone ever say that biden and trump are two sides of the same coin, as a justification to vote for trump or to not vote at all.

reminds me of the improv “Bears gotta get knowledge” on the Dropout show Play It By Ear.
I have never agreed more with a stranger on a topic so niche
The sad thing is I knew at the time, but lack of games and, most of all, the lack of my friends having it, made the dreamcast lose in favour of its contenders.
I thought the Dreamcast earned this title
When you talk about international politics, terrorist is a useless word because its definition is vague and often defined by the power in place: when the Hamas kills civilians it’s “terrorism”, when Israel does it it’s “protection”. The fact that you use it so passionnately instantly disqualifies your argument, underlining its biases.
That’s not world news, that’s propaganda. The article is so biased and doesn’t even pretend to understand the dynamics or context of Switzerland’s parliament.
reminds me of the abu ghraib photos
You’re just presenting nuanced conclusions as overwhelming truths to put weight on your opinion, while taking a few shortcuts. You’re entitled to your opinion of course, but that doesn’t mean you get to dismiss any contradicting ones by deciding unilaterally what the words mean.
Chiropractice in the US might be just “cracking joints”, but it’s not true everywhere. If you can’t accept that, then I don’t know what to tell you.
That’s not what you said, you don’t get to lecture me by pretending you said something else.
Anything illegal deserves more yuck than I can count, but expressing your personal taste towards things that are legal and socially accepted (while frown upon) by dismissing a behaviour that you personslly disagree with is… dismissive.
I understand where you’re coming from, but you’re expressing your taste and values in a very dismissive way
Psychoanalysis was invented almost at the same time in Vienna and a lot of freudian concepts have since been critiqued due to his biases. Does it mean Austria forever owns psychoanalysis and anything that could be discovered since? There is a difference between a field of research, a scientific discipline and a paradigm. Debunking a theory that was invented more than a century ago doesn’t disqualify every research done after that. Also, paradigm change often comes from opposing theories from the same field they oppose. If we did like that, there wouldn’t be a lot of research field left standing.
You accept yourself that osteopathy was able to go beyond its suspicious origin, but refuse to imagine that chiropractice could do the same. Which is why I reiterate: chiropractice requiring no medical training is a north american thing.
in the us, again, it doesn’t happen like that in a lot of countries.
That’s just not true, regulations imply healthcare reimbursement, which implies strict control on the treatment and the practicians, because insurance companies hate paying.
