WhickTV - Bane of Christian Nationalists
I'm a blue button pusher. Reasons in no necessary order: 1) Many people I love and care for will press blue. Me pressing blue has a chance of saving them, me pressing red does not 2) I would feel bad if I contributed, in however small a way, to the direct death of a non-zero number of people 3) I believe most people will, when it comes down to it, push blue. Pushing blue has the greatest chance of *everyone* surviving.

Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

@andreastzav @WhickTv Why, are you lonely and wanting company in class? That’s the second time you’ve tried to use the same insult…clearly creativity is not your strong suit.

@andreastzav @WhickTv 58% voted blue when there was literally no consequences attached to the vote. what do you think happens if death is the actual consequence?

@andreastzav @WhickTv Where do I pretend to know game theory? Also where do I state it’s easier to hit 100%? It’s not…but it probably is easier to hit 75% red than 50%+1 blue.

@radicallymid @WhickTv random guy who pretends to know game theory, doesn't understand it's harder for 100% of people to push a certain button than for 50%+1 to press a certain button 🤣😂🤡

@paleochristcon @ReedHawk2 Probably because you never actually contend with the underlying issue but instead get bogged down in semantical bullshit that doesn’t move thought forward. You retreat to the easiest bulwark to defend and just sit there like a coward

@ReedHawk2 Cool so why won't destiny debate me on the ethical proposition I gave him? You now will no longer take him seriously correct?

It not only resembles free speech but is free speech and freedom of association. Asmongold has a right to say what he wants and a right not to listen to a fucking word you have to say about it lol.
Destiny | Steven Bonnell II@TheOmniLiberal

btw, when people like @Asmongold openly admit they want 0 pushback for anything they say, this is an admission that they have no value about a "marketplace of ideas" or "open discourse" or anything, they want to preach to a choir in an insulated, protected echo chamber fortified by social media algos Nothing about this resembles anything remotely close to "free speech" or the purpose of why free speech exists.

The only thing on this list that Obama actually campaigned on was taxing the rich more (which he did). If you expected the rest of all that and were disappointed when it didn’t happen, you did that all to yourself by not actually paying attention to Obama’s platform lol.

@Tulgaat @r_u_thinking @WhickTv Jeff, what makes you think think it outs psychopaths? If the poll results accurately reflect what the actual outcome would be (they don’t) then 42% of the population being psychopaths seems unreasonably high. Surely something else must be going on here

I’m caught between believing Taylor and knowing her history of lying about interactions. I can fully believe Sean Spicer is a pussy while also believing this interaction never happened

We don’t care about your liberal vs tankie team-sports bullshit, we don’t like either of you. Since it’s hard for people to grasp, we support candidates who are pro-Ukraine AND pro-Palestine. We want to elect people who will vote for progressive/socialist policies, and we want to work with creators who want those candidates to win. Even if we disagree with those creators on things like Ukraine. If you can’t comprehend this you need to log off and get therapy.

@ProgressiveVic I’m not sure how I could trust you with my money or support. You seem to be inconsistent in values and perhaps even dishonest.

@Ron_Pauls_Bat @radicallymid @VisualizingGame @esjesjesj Lmfao contend with the info, dumbass. “I havent seen hos appearances” isnt a response. If it was an actionable threat, why did rick scott push to defund yale for even having him on as opposed to directly pressing charges on hasan for incitement of violence or some other crime?

If you’re poor and say you want socialism it doesn’t count because you just want handouts. If you’re rich and say you want socialism it doesn’t count because you made too much money.
