@admitsWrongIfProven Can you give an example where the result is wrong in asian countries? They would be considered old fashioned, and thus conservative, but in terms of practice many of them are really left wing countries as they are communistic with very significant social welfare programs and laws which prefer the "greater good" over indivdual rights (like making tattoos illegal in certain spaces).

So I'd argue they are legitimate extreme left wing in nature despite being old fashioned and in fact a great example of how my definition is more useful and applicable.

@admitsWrongIfProven

Could be some of that.

But super right wing being associated with a socialist party seems weird, though I agree it was very right in **many** ways it isnt really a great example of what the right is.

@arinbasu1 yup, no arguments there.

@admitsWrongIfProven I have a very different take.

While I know publicly the definition of left and right is largely "old fashioned vs new" I find in practice thatisnt too useful or even accurate. For me I define left vs right as values that focus on the individual rights above the rights of the group, and with the left caring more about the collective good even if that sacrafices individual freedom/rights.

We see this in almost all aspects, taxes (the left is more ont he side of evening out wealth and redistribution), immigration (caring more about the individuals here now than the collective good of those in need around the world), etc

@arinbasu1 Criticism for the sake of criticism I think I find fairly common on both sides of the spectrum, at least at the more extreme ends.

@arinbasu1 Thats kinda my point, if anything it appears to suggest a rather violently opposed mind to any sort of contradictory thought.

@admitsWrongIfProven Authority isnt right, thats up.... right is conservatism (prefering traditional values), not authoritarianism.

@robryk Not in great detail. I am largely basing this post on what I have observed.

@admitsWrongIfProven Yes that is true, and being polarized is never a good idea. But in this case im pointing out thee difference between the sides and how they manifest.

Blocking people for fact seeking and asking questions to understand is very much a uniquely left thing.

@admitsWrongIfProven

I disagree, the most fetishized non sexual body part are probably breasts or face.

@admin @wjmaggos

@admitsWrongIfProven

Not all of them say they are left explicitly, but it is quite obvious.

@robryk I havent tested side by side... but it works really well. Other glues i tried early on werent effective because they were thick so they didnt soak in and thus didnt do good at water proofing. Plus the super glue is very hard so it really lasts once dried.

@admitsWrongIfProven

its a theory, but I think its nonsense. it also is based ont he assumption that its some biological mistake... People can and are attracted to nearly any bodypart. Feet is no more weird then legs or a stomach. There is no need to explain away feet to begin with.

In the USA everyone is so obsessed with genitals I figure we will just measure things in dick/clit lengths... that way we no longer need to live in fear if someone we are interacting with may be dressed as the opposite sex. We will immediately know by how they measure things what their genitals look like. ITs a conservatives dream come true.

@admin @wjmaggos

Over the years I have had hundreds of left-wing people block me for sincerely asking for the facts in a situation, a situation I agree with them on... I cant recall a right-winger ever doing that (not that they dont have a ton of other issues).

As someone who has and still does lean left I have to say every day i become more and more ashamed of the way "my side" behaves... its depressing to see.

@garyackerman Thats because students dont care about their marks, they care about not making their parents angry by getting bad marks, but few kids care about the marks on their own.

Why should they, what value have we teached them marks have?

Pro tip: If you have a cheaper desk made of pressure treated wood, and it gets hold and starts to get spots where the laminate is gone exposing the wood then you probably already know once that happens it gets wors real quick as just rubbing against it will flake off shards o wood till your desk distinigrates.

If when the patches form you takes some super clue and create a coating it works REALLY well. On the one hand it water proofs it which if water gets in it will ruin things a lot. and it stops it from flaking off.

I need to get a new desk but its a big project and so far this has worked great to keep my 25 year old desk alive.

If you want a smooth surface do it in two steps.. the first time the super glue absorbs so when it drys it creates a nice barrier but looks like youdidnt do anything. The second coat will not soak into the wood so you can then fill the hole, let it dry and sand it. this can give youa glossy smooth coat if you want to take it a step further.

@admin Agreed. Men do seem to be more willing to be single than women when they are sexually "satisfied"
