You listed three countries, dude. Tell me what colonies they currently have?

What about the rest of the world? For example China or Russia? Why exactly do they have less colonies?

Do you think the US is the entire west?

Do you think non western countries care more about casualties?

Your stupid meme just makes my point more stand out that you have all your knowledge from memes

You can get used to everything, most people would probably quit though.

I spend maybe a tenth of the time here that I spent on reddit

Incredibly ignorant and uninformed take lmao

Still miles ahead of the rest

I think you make an interesting point and got me thinking, didn’t want to come of as standoffish or something.

I just think science pointing at faith loses the nuance between the assumption that a working theory is currently correct and the deep belief in dogma. Technically you could call both faith, but they are very different.

As you pointed out science deals with unknowns and sometimes there’s not even a theory. Faith has historically been one of the primary ways to deal with any kinds of unknowns, of course, but it’s not the only one.

I agree that being a scientist and being faithful isn’t a contradiction. I feel like science is a very broad term and certain disciplines might be more or less inclined to be religious though.

MacOS is a lot worse than Windows tbh

Cool story bro

There’s a difference between working with the latest and most probable hypothesis under the assumption that it could be wrong and faith in a religious sense.

Faith and dogma leave no shred of doubt that they’re right. Science acknowledges that it could be completely wrong but we have no further data to replace at this point in time.

It’s not. People are just afraid of being replaced, especially when they weren’t that original or creative in the first place.

Firstly, Putin has decent support in spite of the elections being a sham.

Secondly, there’s literally nothing else you can do to make a regime change happen from the outside. Except war, which no one wants.

So keep rolling your eyes in ignorance.

That’s the point as the people are enabling the government

I agree with most, but android has better UI than IOS by a mile. And I don’t really see a maps competitor coming close, maybe Apple maps.

Honestly, both of those groups would be doing fine using windows, too

Lmao that has worked very well in the past

I don’t think it makes that much of a difference tbh.

Both Iraq and Afghanistan struggled with terrorism and extremism during and after the occupation.

I don’t like the US government a lot, but if I need to pick my poison it would 100% be the USA instead of China.

Also, I kinda agree with you on having superior governing bodies like the EU on a global scale, but it brings some hardship with it.

The EU is already struggling pretty hard with some of the states not seeing eye to eye and others gaming the system for their own political benefits. Above all, Hungary and Poland, which shit on the EU every single day while enjoying all the benefits.
