@hanswolters Indeed :)

Liberal: "We need to raise the minimum wage to fix our problems".

Me: "It doesnt fix problems it makes them worse, here is some hard data proving it actually does more harm to the poor than good!"

Conservatives: "Yes, we agree, stupid libtards, lets get rid of minimum wage!"

Me: "Yes, great, perfect, glad you understand. So once we get rid of it how do you plan to replace it with something better that fixes the poverty problem we are facing?"

Conservatives: "Fix the what now? No no, we just oppose welfare, we dont want to fix poverty, they are just lazy"

Me: "Fuck off!"

@pants Well more like the aerosmith guy is going around stealing shit from all the rich peoples homes because their jealous, even the occasional car, screams at you for being a nazi if you ask him to stop stealing, or really just asking him nicely to be considerate to anyone and they go on a 10 minute diatrabe about how your a racist nazi, even when race isnt related... the other guy however is shooting his gun in the sky screaming about space jews.

Personally I wouldnt say either is very tolerable. Nor would I care to say which side I'd "take" over the other, kick them both out.

Pretty accurate.

@skells

Right I agree with this.. My point isnt that there is more than 2 sexes, my point is more that sex is a continuous spectrum where most people are crowded at the poles. It has two poles, as most spectrums do.

@trinsec

@mathlover when we talk overall its hard to say if we both disagree on our priorities or our information. So I cant really claim your right or wrong in that regard.

My own expiernce, I voted for obama and I was ashamed of that by the end of his career, his murder of US citizens without due process ensured I could have 0 respect for him. Nothing Trump has done since comes close tot hat.

So while I do think Obama is worse than Trump I'd also say the difference isnt by that much. Obama was the worst president we ever had, Trump the second worse... Joe is sizing up to take Trump's place but its too soon to say for sure.

@mathlover Trump isnt perfect, but he had nearly half the average troops deployed overseas in general. More than happy about that.

@IRLStreamer

Its not about credentials, its about demonstrating ones expertise and knowledge.

I would give just as much credit and due consideration to a high school drop out who happened to publish a peer-reviewed article as I would a PhD. A PhD just requires one finish a thesis and will typically have more than one peer reviewed article they managed to post. So its a good bet they have demonstrated their knowledge and skill..

But yea i guess its so horrible of me to give more credit to someone who has actually demonstrated they are an expert than some random dude who has never accomplished anything in the field but still thinks they know better than those who have.

@mittimithai

Translation: you have no degree or any formal study of any kind, you spent a day once googling shit to try to argue for assumptions you already made and nowyou go around arguing nonsense that isnt remotely in line with the scientific literature because scientists are dumb and you know better.

@realcaseyrollins @wiggles @BeachBleach @Yemaya

@mittimithai

I already shared a link to a peer reviewed study where the subjects were literally categorized on a continuous scale by sex using several factors including one such scale that pretty much every neonatal doctor knows and uses when given birth to a child who is ambiguous.. so not that has already been disproven, and frankly, no one who had a PhD in biology wouldnt know about this, its common place.

As I already said if you really cant find the links ask me in the morning and ill get them again, I am literally on a different computer in bed. trying to sleep

@realcaseyrollins @wiggles

@FadedCornkernel@mastodon.social that is sadly true

@mittimithai

Your statements have made that painfully obvious. I've worked alongside enough of them (One of my degrees is in bio-algorithms). As I said earlier, whare any peer reviewed paper in biology to show you have a Ph.D. and id be happy to give you the consideration that entails, but seems obvious to me you dont.

@realcaseyrollins @wiggles

@mittimithai

A PhD in Biology in general would do.

@realcaseyrollins @wiggles

@mittimithai

its 1am now and im in bead, so if you changed your tune from discounting it out of hand then remind me in the AM and ill be happy to dig them up a second time

@realcaseyrollins @wiggles

@mittimithai

You arent a scientist in the field, you have never achieved any accomplishments to claim that honor, and no scientists dont discount peer reviewed papers without even reading them, afterwords with a careful critique maybe. Needless to say your not at that level

@realcaseyrollins @wiggles

@louiscouture by the way just to be clear, I like you, your respectful and thats really all that counts. so hope you dont take that too harsh. But I did feel it was worth pointing out for your own personal growth as it appears to be a repeating pattern. But I still hold you in high regard despite my last message.
