"Should rename northern iran to iskied",
"I wish the middle east was peaceful. One of the most incredible, beautiful and diverse regions of the planet... And most people are afraid to go and visit. A shame, really.",
"middle east indeed is incredible, beautiful. you are right about people being scare of coming to Iran, I've had more than 100 guests in the past couple of years through the couch surfing community. All of them said that either their mom or their dad or both of them we are not happy to hear that their child is going to Iran! Parents often ask the young backpackers that why are you going to the ISIS country. or they think Iran is in the middle of a war. and many more criticizing questions ...",
"One of my goals is to visit Iran. It looks like such a beautiful country and the architecture is so ornate. ",
"I've wanted to go to the lush, green part of Iran (between the Alborz mountains and the Caspian Sea) for a long time.\n\nMy parents were so mad at the idea, I had to give it up. I'm not sure what to think---one hears about all the people who go there and have no trouble, and one hears about the occasional bad incident. Idk. I admit I am ignorant.",
"Love is a strong word",
"The picture you see is exactly where you want to be (between the Alborz mountains and the Caspian Sea). I hear all those stories because of my job that is related to the tourism industry. well there are more good news and good stories than the few incidents. I wish you could convince your parents to come over here one day. let me know if I could be a help in that! ",
"I wish you could fulfill your desires as soon as possible and we (Iranians) would love to welcome you to our homeland.",
"what would you recommend me to use instead of love?",
"\"Meh\" seems accurate",
"Inshallah! ",
"thank you, I will save your comment to look back at later",
"TIL, Iran has tourism!",
"Yeh people in the west have the usual scare of Iran.\nBut I've known a couple of people who've gone to Iran and they say it is a beautiful country with good people. \nDefinitely on my bucket list",
"More like not wanting to be arrested and jailed for life simply because youre american and actually value human rights or hold different religious beliefs.",
"No such thing as being arrested or jailed for life just for being American! Maybe you need to see [more of these](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojXz3BmOZ0Y)",
"I agree with your point, but the person you responded to didn't say anything about what you're saying.",
"LoL obviously. I was being hyperbolic with that statement. However its not unheard of for Americans to suddenly find themselves arrested because they disagree with the ideology of the government.\nYou definitely can get the death penalty for being a Christian. You can also be imprisoned for insulting Islam and many other ridiculous \"crimes\".\nUntil Iran does away with its archaic and unjust laws, why would I want to go there?\nDefinitely wouldn't bring my wife or daughter to a place where they will be oppressed by the government and seen as second class people by many. \nTell me, how are gays treated in Iran? Do women have an equal place in society? There is a reason why tons of people don't want to visit that shit hole.\n\nEdit: electricity issue I was thinking of was in Afghanistan. Hard to keep these shithole middle eastern countries straight.",
"> Americans who visit and act as they normally would in the US can get arrested.\n\nYou edited this sentence in after I commented. All the other person said was \"arrested or jailed for life **just** for being American\". Saying \"unless [Americans are] willing to not be [Americans], you can be arrested and jailed\" is misrepresenting their point. They (as of now in this thread) nor I are defending Iran's shitty laws nor denying its anti-American stance.",
"You are correct, the electricity issue I was thinking of was in Afghanistan.\nHowever every other point stands for Iran.",
"You've got a nice habit of editing and posting and deleting comments. It was the preface of \"Being an American\" the person you responded to was commenting on. That's why they wrote \"just\".",
"LoL I'm not from the US so why would I care? Nice strawman though. ",
"very nice indeed i hear your ski resort is the only one in the middle east id love to go but scared to go to Iran ",
"don't be scared, nothing's gonna happen , lots of young athletes are coming to ski and snowboard here. it's very easy for most europeans to get to Iran without visa. ( visa on arrival for most countries except few of them) ",
"My 'Ski Iran' shirt suddenly seems much less ironic.",
"I try and ignore the stereotypes but my big mouth causes problems with the authorities here in England so I'm pretty sure I'd do something stupid .... I love my photography to Tehran is a dream place to photograph imo ",
"I live on the other side of the world and my home looks quite similar. :) ",
"BEAUTIFUL. As stupid as it sound,until not so long ago, I wouldnt have thought to find snow in the middle east...until I realized you have HUGE mountains there. Thanks mate!",
"Northern Iran is a really under appreciated area of the world.",
"Iran before the revolution isn’t something Americans are taught about. I was blown away when I saw the pitchers for the first time and made me want to visit",
"Why would you express your ideology about each government you travel to? Are you an ideologist or journalist or something? \nyou said: \"You definitely can get the death penalty for being a Christian.\" This is an absolute nonsense! nobody has ever got death penalty for being Christian in Iran. (if there was any case about getting a death penalty perhaps the news didn't cover up the whole story or you are just making it by your self.\n\"\"\" You can also be imprisoned for insulting Islam and many other ridiculous \"crimes\" \"\"\" Are you sure you are traveling to have fun or you are looking for trouble? who would travel to different countries to insult other religions and beliefs. do you judge Indian people when you go to India? they have thousands of beliefs! would you go and evaluate every single religion and beliefs? \nI'm agree with you that many laws and rules are terrible here (such as the gay right and human rights that you mentioned)\nwomen rights must improve and most of the people already are fighting to gain those rights.\nI just want to tell you not all Iranians are supporting what our regime does, we really wish those incidents never happened back in the past years from both sides.\nI hope you and your family visit Iran when we have different rule and better relationship with the amazing people of America.\n",
"As an American, I wish our countries had better political relationship but Id like to visit Iran. One of my wonderful co-workers is from there, and it seems like a beautiful and diverse country. But I’m atheist and wouldn’t it be dangerous for me to visit there? ",
"I really wish that too , that day will come! A friendly advise, just don't mention that you are atheist and then you are safe. first of all nobody ask you what's your religion, secondly even if somebody asked, just fake it and tell them you are christian and enjoy the trip. don't be afraid though, it's not that harsh and dangerous, people are very warm hearted and very friendly. avoid political and religious talk.",
"Makes sense - I try to avoid those topics anyway since they’re so divisive. ",
"Wait, there's snow in the Middle East? ",
"I live in Reno and this looks like Home to me. Beautiful 👍",
"Your friend was correct, Iran is a stunning beautiful country and one of the 10 places I would love to visit most. Unfortunately our governments hate each other so we cant really travel there :(",
"Beautiful looking place! Wow. ",
"I've always wanted to visit Yemen. Unfortunately, I may never get to visit without the risk of dying. ",
"So... Is that a couch crashing offer?",
"Im not an american dumbass.... And I would still never visit that shit hole.",
"the user name explains it all\n\nThe only Cyrus they ever heard of was Miley ;) Dont try to understand them, it will only detract from your own peace \n\nI long to visit, as an american, I know I would need an escort. I want to visit Hafiz's tomb and dance wildly, laughing. I want to meditate in the ruins of Persopolis, so much to do ",
"no? Your mentality certainly represents the worst of them\n\nprobably a Russian troll, is it snowing in St Petersburg comrade?",
"I would agree with you accept for the diverse part. I spent allot of time in Iraq, Afghanistan, Qatar, Kuwait, and the UAE. Diversity is not what I saw. I witnessed allot of immigrant workers doing all the bad jobs and the Arab majority tending to be disproportionately benefiting from the distribution of labor. Soudis don't work the oil fields.",
"Alpine, Utah?\n\nRumor is that Tehran is a lot like Salt Lake, complete with similar orographics that create \"The Greatest Snow on Earth.\"",
"My own Iranian family members are scared to go there, which really doesn't give me the impression that I would be welcome. ",
"I hope one day nothing scares your family to go back to their homeland. We all wish all Iranians, regardless of their religion and their beliefs could easily get in and out of the country. ",
"From what I understand it's a problem among the family. They come from a very wealthy Iranian family, but my aunt fell in love with my uncle (US Navy) when he was there during the Iranian revolution. She left the country and took her mother (my beautiful great aunt Ami). They are no longer considered to be part of their Iranian bloodline by their relatives in Iran, and as I understand it that part of their family has a lot of social influence and political power in Iran so they just don't risk it. ",
"That was interesting. ",
"You sound as if the entire middle east is at war. FYI lots of Westerners including Americans travel to Iran which is perfectly safe and much more so than resorts in Mexico or Jamaica etc",
"Before the revolution Iran had less than 50% literacy rates and people were living shorter, brutal lives, with women having 7 kids of which 2-3 died in infancy. \n\nIranians massively improved living standards in Iran *after* the revolution. http://iranprimer.usip.org/blog/2013/apr/01/un-stats-life-longer-and-healthier-iran",
"Thanks for the info!",
"What happens to people who admit they're atheist?",
"The fact the Middle East is often just viewed as endless desert is a real travesty. Countless powerful civilizations and Empires don't just rise up from the sand ",

"Your friend was wrong. ",
"I grew up a hour from SLC, I'd much rather go to Tehran. I'm going to guess they don't have a mormon temple and have way better food.",
"I agree. Although I think it would be awesome to cross the deserts of Arabia on a camel with the Bedouin.",
"Given the crowds at the Cottonwood resorts, i'd be interested to spend a winter over there. \n\nNot sure how long ago you moved, but SLC is blossoming into a pretty cool place to live. Some things will always remain the same, but the bar, brewery, distillery, and food scene is getting solid.\n\nAlso, say what you will about Salt Lake's endemic culture--I'd probably agree with you. That said, living in an Islamic Republic would be a bit more gnarly than living with snobby, patriarchal, and ostracizing neighbors.",
"I'm in SE Idaho now, so still just a few hours away. I still only go there to use the airport mostly so I can't comment on most of the city. I wouldn't enjoy living in Tehran unless their government and laws were drastically reformed, but it would be a cool place to visit. I know a lot about the old Persian kingdoms but not much about modern Iran. ",
"Minutes later, the woman who took the photo was beaten to death by the religious police, for being on a mountain without a man",
"\"I don't like what you say so I'm gonna accuse you of being a Russian troll\"\nYou are one pathetic kid. Do the world a favor and get a lobotomy.",
"Alberta? Because I was thinking the same",
"oh, you speak with such eloquence, such precise diction\n\nis this shakespeare responding to me, alas I fear not, just Yuri",
"I'm far superior to you in every way.\nIran is a shithole nation. No way round it.",
"how many times have you been there? What do you base your judgements on?\n\nYes, I admit you are far superior to me in everyway\n\nthats what all the best people do, they go around telling everyone how superior they are\n\n",
"Atblest you acknowledge my superiority. Now you just need to acknowledge how pathetic you are.\nNothing you say changes human rights issues in Iran nor does it Chang the shitty infrastructure. \nStop chanting death to innocent people and maybe Iran could join the 21st century.\nBut then again hateful people controlled by an oppressive religious theocracy probably won't join the 21st century anytime soon."

"Before and after what? What happened?",
"I’m guessing a conservative stepped foot on the campus. ",
"Why did they actually burn the free speech sign?",
"I'm sure if Nazis would have pulled this same shit in 1964 they'd have gotten similar results. ",
"I think the leftist political group AntiFa who burned the sign does not support the position of free speech. Their argument is that some speech is too dangerous and should not be allowed to be exercised because it is \"hate speech\", and force must be used to shut it down rather than better ideas, rational discourse and debate. I believe this was when a Trump Rally was scheduled to be held and AntiFa clashed with the Trump supporters. \n\nKind of ironic because the original Berkeley Free Speech sit ins and protests were held because the students were being prevented from organizing political speeches and movements on campus. ",
"You do realize Antifa has more in common with Nazi's than with any other group, don't you?\n\nAlso funded by Nazi money. ",
"Judging from your profile it's pretty clear that you wouldn't care about free speech for people you don't like once you're in power, nice try, though.",
"If Nazis pulled what shit? I don’t understand why Nazis. It’s like you want to compare some group to Nazis but instead you use Nazis as an example of a group of people that ‘could’ have done the same thing. It’s hard for me to even explain how your comment doesn’t make sense. ",
"They didn’t. That’s a shitty photoshop job.",
"Clearly just a terrible photoshop.\nThe font in the bottom is just copied from the top.\nWhy do people make this stuff?\nWhy do people want to stir up trouble and watch the world burn?",
"it was a replica of the same sign from the top picture that was being used by the Trump supporters to point out the irony of protesting free speech on a college campus that championed the right of free speech.\n\nIt was taken through force of violence by the masked AntiFa and burned. \n\nI can assure you it is very real. \n\n[Here is a better image from a different angle.](https://i.imgur.com/r099F33.jpg)\n\n",

"\"Damn bulletproof\" is not the same thing as \"bug free\". A bug is a very fuzzy concept - you can never prove their total absence, only find ones that do exist. You can build a stable system, sure, but you can't possibly account that every condition in every domain behaves in a way that satisfies the expectations of every user. Maybe a function returns exactly every response as expected during testing, and gives those same correct results for decades, but under certain inputs runs very slow - that's a bug if it's unacceptably slow, but what you accept is purely at the discretion of your users. What about software that has been running for decades and manages dates, that worked perfectly fine until DST requirements were updated, and now had a 1h window every year where its logging is in error. Was that software formally \"bug free\" but since had a bug injected by... the world? If so, then bug-freeness is a dynamic state, and you have no idea if there have been other reality-injected bugs in the meantime that change expected behaviour that you're simply not catching. ",

If you were a passenger who had lived through the 70's and 80's you saw previous hijackings on TV where the plane landed and the passengers were used as hostages. Nobody was using planes as missiles, though one group of hijackers threatened to, so it wasn't in the zietgiest that it would be the motive of the hijackers.

I grew up in a cult for most of my life (up until a few years ago) and they have several ways of keeping you in that I've noticed. \n\n1. Above all is fear. They keep you in a constant state of fear of a punishment that you cannot deny exists, but also have to play along just in case it does. \n\n2. Inclusion. When you're in a cult, you join a family or network of like minded people who all (supposedly) believe in the same things as you do. \n\n3. Zeal. As long as there are members that are favored, you will always strive to be revered as they are or have the respect of those in charge. Unknowingly, this is an impossibility to achieve, but it keeps you engaged and guilts you into feeling like you are never good enough. \n\n4. Comparisons. As long as you can be convinced that everyone else is the enemy (and sometimes they can even convince you that you are an enemy to yourself), then you will always alienate yourself from forming close bonds with others and inevitably destroy your own sense of self. This is great for those in charge because then you become more subservient and malleable. \n\n5. Knowledge. As long as their is \"knowledge\" to be attained or understood, you will continually try to understand concepts that in reality have no definite answer. The answers provided to you will be shrouded at best and the more you try to understand the unknowable with convoluted answers, the more you will find yourself being engrossed in the chaotic confusion and nagging self-doubt. In other words, the more inquisitive and intelligent you are, the more you can be manipulated. \n\n6. Corruption. By conditioning your mind to excuse away the corruption that you will inevitability see/experience by higher-ups (via religious dogma such as \"the righteous can do no wrong in God's eyes\"), they establish a loyal base that will not scrutinize or question their authority. In fact, the more corruption there is, the more they excuse it and the more powerful they become in comparison to their constituents. \n\n7. And last but not least, shame. The moment you leave, you are ashamed of going back to where you left off in the cult. And you're too embarrassed to really face the outside world knowing what you just went through. It's a Catch-22 that forces some people to come back in out of necessity or survival. Others just can't stand to live with themselves. It's a dark dark path leaving a cult, especially if you have family members of friends currently active and pressuring you to return (if not threatening you). \n\nThat's just some of the common themes I've seen from cults in my life. Most established religions have the same pitfalls, but cults tend to fly under the radar much easier. To the point where a lot of what goes on in some of these groups never makes it to the ears of the public. ",

"I’m a Muslim. My name is Mohammad. I’d say a moderately religious one too.\n\nI’m also an Emergency Medicine physician. I do my best to improve/save lives on a daily basis.\n\nPeople will probably imply that I can’t be religious and live in America at the same time, while this simply isn’t true.\n\nScanning through this sub makes me realize how much misunderstanding their is about Islam (for good reason, current day events make it easy). \n\nIf Islam was truly as violent as people think it is, you wouldn’t have had Muslims, Christians, and Jews living together, in Baghdad, Damascus, and Southern Spain, a thousand years ago, peacefully. In an age where people think Islam is inherently anti-Semitic, should understand how important the “People of the Book” (Jews and Christians) are in Islam, and they should be respected. Maimonides is a very famous Jewish scholar that thrived in Islamic Spain a thousand years ago. If Islam is really as intolerant as people believe it to be, why weren’t Jews and Christians purged from Muslim lands when Islam was a much more dominant force than it is today.\n\nDuring Islam’s golden age, algebra (derived from an Arabic word), countless advances in medicine, astronomy, engineering, law, and countless other areas were made. The oldest university that is currently still in existence is Morocco, and was founded a woman in the 800s.\n\nThe Christians had no problem purging Spain of ALL Muslims and Jews in the Spanish Inquisition in the 1400s. Now does this make me believe that Christians are inherently intolerant and that their scripture instructs them to be so intolerant? No.\n\nComplex geopolitical situations causes people to use the dominant cultural force to convince people of a cause. In the Middle East, Islam is that dominant cultural force. Bad individuals who want to convince people that “America is the reasons our lives suck,” will use Islam to justify their geopolitical goals. They will use passages and texts out of context to justify what they want.\n\nReligion is simply a lens through which you look at life. If the person behind that lens is evil their outlook will be evil regardless of what that lens does.\n\nThe word “Jihad” is probably one of the most misunderstood concepts when it comes to Islam. Is it a part of Islam? Definitely. Is it what people think it is? Definitely not.\n\nJihad literally means to “struggle” towards the truth. This struggle can come in thought, words, or action. It should begin with oneself before it involves anyone else. My personal “Jihad” is to clarify people misconceptions about Islam, peacefully, and through my speech. \n\nWhere the terrorists take advantage of this is that Islam does ask it’s followers to protect each other. So terrorists have used that as an excuse to recruit followers to their cause. The 9/11 attacker’s didn’t hate America’s “freedom.” If they’re so against “freedom” they would have attacked the Netherlands. The justification they used in their own videos was the deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children due to U.S. sanctions in the late 90s. To clarify, I AM NOT saying that that is a justification for 9/11. \n\nThe Prophet Muhammad instructed his followers that when going to war, never to attack innocent women, children, destroy crops, and places of worship. He once noticed that a litter of puppies had been killed on the way to battle and demanded to know why more care hadn’t been taken to prevent that outcome. Furthermore, suicide is strictly forbidden in Islam for any reason.\n\nDespite all I’ve said, I know I will never convince some people that Islam isn’t inherently evil. But for the others, I’d like to at least give you the sense that this issue isn’t as black and white as you may think it is.\n\nThe Quran says that to killing a person is as if you’ve killed all of mankind, and that to save a life it is as if you’ve saved all of mankind.\n\nIt is with that teaching that I go to work everyday.",

He made wild claims about what it could do that were quickly debunked, the main Dianetics organization had legal and financial issues and he was pushing into practicing medicine without a license territory.

Its because they are quite conservative, like the christian ones in the US, they still fight against reproductive rights and gay marriage.\n\nAnd how does this excuse anything? Clearly there is strong correlation between Islam and antiquated, horrible views. Why does the fact that the same is true for Christians change this? Islam is an awful ideology and its supporters (those who can read the Hadiths and take them seriously) disproportionately support ideas that have as little a place in civilized society as Nazism or other totalitarian ideologies. You can be outraged all you want, but there is no denying that a neutral reading of the source material leads you to agree that extremist views are supported by the scriptures and the life of the prophet Mohammed. Yes, the Old Testament is awful too, but at least Jesus put a positive, peaceful and moderating spin on the whole thing. The highest prophet of Islam was a pedophilic, misogynistic warlord. \n\nWhy is it so hard to believe that following an awful, anachronistic book in the 21st century might result in having harmful, pre-modern ideas about society? Yes, not all \"Muslims\" think this way. The poll clearly shows this, as 18% of British Muslims want homosexuality to be legal. The 52% who don't are just \"conservative,\" according to you.

I have no problem calling out child rap***ists*** – that's an easy one. The tricky part is when you make the chain between the person and the subject longer. \n\nIf the chain between you and raping children is that you are part of a religion of which leader, who lived 1400 years ago, was a child rapist then I'd have to say, no – that does not make you a bad person. If the connection is much closer, like being a catholic and knowing that a part of the current leaders of your church are pedophiles then I'd still say, no – that doesn't make you a bad person. The closer you get, the worse it is.\n\nIt's fine that you call out Imams protecting child rapists if that happened, but that's not what you're doing. You are taking literally anything you can find on a billions of people as a collective – present back to thousands of years ago – and applying it to individuals. *\"This fictional Muslim in an example? He supports child rape and mass murder.\"*\n\nThe second dishonest part going on here is that you apply these logical conclusions only to certain groups. This might be because you know more about your own culture than theirs. You probably know about, let's say Christianity, from your own, perhaps even secular experiences.

">1) How much contact did you have with people outside the cult?\n\nTechnically, there was no true restriction outside of condemnation for interacting with \"demons\" or anyone who wasn't part of the cult. I was in school the entire time though and I had no friends partially because my parents and fellow cult members would impress upon us that we are special and everyone else was evil. Led to me having to learn to have basic human interactions at 20 and awkwardly attempt to be a normal human being that actually talked and expressed themselves. So in short, not much outside of teachers and random people in stores or on the street.\n\n\n>2) Were you aware of your situation while growing up?\n\nHell no. The moment you halfway questioned anything you were immediately condemned, talked about, laughed at, mocked, ostracized, etc. I knew that this religion *had* to be the truth because the way they explained was so convincing and it consumed you. Imo its one of the most clever cults because it provides answers to everything that prevent you from being able to delve too deeply. And the little answers they do give seem to let you use your imagination to fill in the blanks which will always be in favor of the religion rather than against it. Also, a lot of personal attacks on a person's character will keep them from wanting to speak out or question things too so I did know deep down that what I was experiencing was crazy, but my mind wouldn't allow me to fully realize the thought in words and instead I blamed myself for not understanding. \n\n\n>3) Did you notice weird things about people that you didn't know where normal or common outside the cult (or the other way around)?\n\nOhhhhh, that's a list that could go on for miles. My dad told my mom that \"he couldn't wait to see her in hell so that he could laugh at her\" when he came home at 3am angry and drunk with no explanation. People often gave their \"ministers\" their possessions (I'm talkin cars, beds, homes, etc.) for free. People let the higher ups take advantage of them sexually. People would let people assault others and not say anything due to status. There were murders, rapes, and all kinds of other things that we all knew about but wouldn't take outside of the cult for fear of what those above us might say or do. There was a lot going on and to go through and list all of it would take me forever. \n\n>4) Was there any kind of problem with your family or friends when you left (or what were the conditions of your exit)?\n\nFather ostracized me and stopped talking to me for a bit and called me the devil. The rest of the members pretend that I don't exist. Like they literally avoid me like the plague.\n\n>5) Do you have any religion now?\n\nI don't claim any organized religion now, but I do claim to still be spiritual because I can't without a shadow of a doubt say that there can't be any god or spiritual beings in existence. I also won't claim that there is a singular god either seeing as none of this can be proven. I just choose to keep an open mind. \n\nSorry for the lateness and the length.

"> I didn't say they were terrorists, I said they share the same value system/doctrinal system as terrorists.\n\n> I agree they're not terrorists.\n\nNow that we've established that Muslims as a collective aren't terrorists we're almost back to the original question. Would you agree that it's wrong to call out or insinuate that Muslims are terrorists?\n\n> The closer you get, the worse it is.\n\nTo clarify here, my point is that it's meaningless and even malicious to make blanket statements like \"all Muslims are bad\" because they all fall somewhere (very loosely) on the scale of \"supporting child rape\" – from praying to Mohammed to actually raping children. Meaningless in the sense that your spectrum is so vague and convoluted; malicious because you will then take this very meaningless scale and, drop the \"meaningless\" part and just use it as a way to broadly condemn Muslims for child rape, when the scale clearly doesn't start at child rape.\n\nAs for your point about Djingis Khan and Adolf Hitler, let me clarify myself there as well. It's not that the passage of time but rather the context. I'm Swedish and if you've read into Swedish history you will know that we fought our fair share of wars back in the days.\n\n*Do I have to condemn those wars to be a ethical person? Not really. Is it even possible to morally justify myself as a Swede, knowing the history of my country? Of course it is. Does that mean I can't think wars are bad?* **See where I'm getting at?** \n\n> > here is that you apply these logical conclusions only to certain groups.\n\n> no...i extended that conclusion to every muslim.\n\n\"Only to certain groups\" refers to Muslims, but not other religions or non-religious people. So by your own admission, you agree with the premise of that criticism. You apply this logic to some groups (all Muslims) but not other groups. Those other groups can vary (e.g religion, political party, skin color) and even intersect with Muslims (e.g you only apply this logic to Arab Muslims but not European Muslim-majority populations – \"White Muslims\" or whatever you want to label them as).\n\n> aah, good now we can get to the crux of the matter.\n\nHere is probably a good example of how you apply your logics. Do note that what you write next is you interpreting a 1400 year old book. Do you give Muslims the same benefit of the doubt as you give yourself here?\n\n> i've faced no problems from either religions personally & it would be a stupid & narrow minded view to make a decision based off of my own experiences.\n\nI hope you keep expanding your experiences. I'm not saying that you can't criticize ISIS unless you personally talked to an ISIS fighter, but adding your personal experiences can help you contextualize what you read about the world. Depending on anecdotal evidence is no good either. You can't realistically give me enough anecdotes to make me change my mind – blanket statement-style – [about almost 2 billion people.](https://i.imgur.com/JWNxZH2.png)",

"> you disagree it seems, so we have 2 different value systems.\n\nI think what we fundamentally disagree on is how we evaluate morals. In my system everything is on a spectrum (e.g neutral to bad) but it seems that you don't have that gradient. From what you've explained your system is binary – like a switch between neutral and bad. I don't accept the notion that recognizing Muhammed as a spiritual leader is equally bad to raping children.\n\n> for example, koran says beat your wife if she is disobedient.\nthere is no way to 'interpret' that.\nit is literal & it is explicit.\n\nLet's continue on this line of thought. Imagine two Muslim men; one beats his wife and the other one doesn't. In the eyes of your literal interpretation of the Koran they both support beating one's wife – correct? Are they both equally bad in your opinion?\n\n> there is no nuance or exception because islam does not WORK THAT WAY.\nyou don't have to take my word for it, i encourage you to go read about islam.\nthere is even /islam here.\n(& those fuckers will defend stoning and wife beating btw, but go ahead & read there).\n\nI'm completely fine with you calling out everyone who use corporal punishment.

Because from all your arguments it seems like you take theological studies (reading the Koran) over sociological studies (studying people who are part of Islam). I'm only talking about the latter.** But in this reply it seems like you don't count all Muslims as Muslims – is this correct? If you want to redefine 'Muslim' to mean \"only the bad people who are part of Islam\" then I guess the entire discussion is rather meaningless, and my new opposition to your argument is then that you shouldn't make up your own definition of a group of people in the way you do.\n\n*Imagine this scenario: My new definition of the word \"Republican\" is someone who is brain-dead when it comes to politics.

"I'm trying to understand your point of view here. So when I look at religious groups of people I see them divided into different levels of \"seriousness.\" \n\nYou have those who were born into the religion but don't really care, some who are more serious about their religion and believes in their God/s – and at the edge of the spectrum you have those who 100% believe that everything in their religious book is true and must be followed step by step. \n\nDifferent cultures divide themselves differently onto that spectrum (e.g the American population is probably more serious about their religion than the Swedish, which is fairly secular, even though like 2/3 are Christians).\n\nI'm secular (e.g not religious but belong in a religion) and I've had issues talking seriously to people who are more serious about religion. Even when trying to be open-minded, it's hard to believe someone who say they hear God talking inside of them and that the Bible is literal instructions from God given through the apostles and Jesus (or w/e the explanation is).\n\nNow where that ties back to our discussion, is that you are not far off from that extremely religious man.

In other words, I'm assuming that following Hitler is worse than following Muhammed, based on probable reasons to follow them. This obviously discredits people who follow Hitler because he was a great painter and a dog lover. \n\nSetting that aside for a moment, I think you've found a good analogy for why saying everything is equally bad is ridiculous.\n\nIf idolizing Hitler is bad, the Holocaust is really fucking bad.

"> Muhammed doesn't do that because he was a child rapist but rather his religious importance\n\nsimilarily it would be like following Hitler due to his 'historical importance' & conveniently leaving out the WHY part. \nwhere mohammad was important for a reason: \nhe pushed forth a violent ideology of hatred & destruction. \n\nit's a convenient oversight. \nyou're comfortable with excusing Hitler but not with mohammad, even though they both engaged in evil & committed genocide. \nwhereas hitler's evil was geared against Jews & non 'aryan's,mohammad's was bent on total worldwide domination of pitting muslims against kaffirs. \nwhy you're comfortable with one but not the other is a source of some befuddlement for me. \nclearly you see the inconsistency right? \n\n> In a blanket statement where everything is listed as \"bad\" you have to realize that you've simply excluded the indicator for how bad things are (\n\nbut i'm not. \ni already agreed that it's not the same thing to condone child rape & engage in it. \n2 separate things to be sure. \nbut very close to one another in vileness. \n\n>Not holding the door for an elder or leaving your hat on at the dinner table is also \"bad\" and if you want we can group up all these \"bad\" things without evaluating how bad they are.\n\na non sequitur. \nat no point did i say that there weren't levels. \n& at no point did i come close to insinuating that holding door open is *close* to sympathizing with a child rapist. \n(& subscribing to a doctrine that holds it as a standard) \n(also, not really relevant \n\n> In that sense idolizing Muhammed is bad and child rape is also bad.\n\ni'm not understanding you. \nare you saying there are no degrees of bad? \n",

They wanted to ensure that this was not lost from generation to generation, and it was these people \\(perhaps the best friends of your great grandparents, who knows?\\) that instilled in us that we were Irish, or whatever descent you may be from.\n\nIn America, when we talk to each other about our heritage, we don't say &quot;I'm Irish... well, I wasn't born there, but my great grandfather was from the island.&quot; That's all implied when we speak. We simply say &quot;Oh, I'm Irish!&quot; This is an interesting discussion point for us, because every person you meet is descended from an entirely different mix of places. It is certainly the fault of tourists for not learning more about the culture of where they're going, and learning how to speak appropriately. However, I also appreciate when the host country does not automatically assume malicious intent, and instead inquires further if they think something seems amiss.\n\nAll that said, I've been to Ireland three times, and to the north, once. I knew not to make the mistake described in these posts, when I went, so I never encountered any issues with this, though I read about it all the time on reddit. I've visited several large cities, but have also spent a great deal of my time driving the countryside and visiting small towns, and plenty of time enjoying a pint and a conversation in the pub. I've been to over 20 countries, and the Irish people are among the kindest people I've ever met \\(sorry guys, &quot;among&quot; because it's damned tough to beat the Japanese culture\\), despite the &quot;rough around the edges&quot; appearance we often see in popular media or stereotypes. If this is the &quot;major fault&quot; that needs to be accepted, that's good enough for me.",

Maybe if you include the 10ish public holidays people typically get as \"paid vacation\", but that's not really the same thing.\n\nI know when I was job hunting last year I made a point to recruiters that I was looking for a job where I would make less money but have ~4 weeks paid vacation, and every last one of them told me it was incredibly unlikely, that my current allowance (12 vac, 6 sick, 10 public holidays) was unusually generous.\n\nUnfortunate the only BLS data is from 2006 but then [the national average maxed out at 15 days after 25 years](https://www.bls.gov/news.release/ebs.t05.htm). \n\nI should mention also I work in a vacation based industry, so the amount of vacation a person takes is kind of a key point in our business, and our ~50m members are only taking multiple 2 week vacations a year if they're retired.",

"Tl;Dr: unless you want to die, don't drive carelessly through a national park at night. Night time is the only time some of these animals are able to safely move around due to high traffic.\n\nThis happened to me as well in Yellowstone. Scared the living shit out if me.\n\nI was on a solo, soul searching road trip. I had been couch surfing across the US and just found myself close to Yellowstone so I said \"fuck it, let's check it out.\"\n\nI had been driving all day, it was pitch black by the time I got there. I was going through the winding roads at about 50-55mph. I was tired so and sick of driving so I probably wasn't at my full attention.\n\nI saw a slight glimmer of light for a fraction of a second in the distance as I come over a hill. I think about it for a second then decide to turn on my high beams. Just as I turn them on I see a monster if an Elk standing in my lane within maybe 50 feet of me. I jerk the steering wheel to the right, drive off into the berm, spin out on the loose gravel and my car comes to a stop not far from the elk facing the direction I came from. My adrenaline was through the roof. My small Honda Fit would've been torn to pieces hitting something that large. There's no doubt in my mind I would've been dead if I didn't turn on my high beams at thr exact moment I did.",

"Hiking through Glacier a ranger told us to watch out for bears because the area we were coming up to had large patches of huckleberries and to try some if we saw any. Admittedly I didn't know what huckleberries looked like so after spitting out 2 other extremely bitter berries, we found what we thought were huckleberrie bushes.\n\nAfter about 10 minute of constantly picking huckleberries and eating them as I walked I got bored and kind of sick of them. Then I thought about bears who weigh hundreds of pounds need to eat enough if these things in a couple month window to allow them to survive the entire year and through hibernation. It's amazing.",

"I don't know what to tell you, man. All I can say is that it's not that big a deal. I used to go to Yellowstone all the time, and they don't bother you as long as you don't go too close. Just don't roll right up next to them and try to pet them, take pictures, or throw them in your damn car.",
">walking wall is within feet of your lane\n\nMore like walking in the middle of the lanes. They love to walk on the road because it's easier than walking on the wet ground or snow. Speed limits for most of Yellowstone are 35 or 25, so you really shouldn't be going fast enough to not see them.",
"I'm not calling you out on anything. Your assertions are logical.\n\nIt's just in this particular picture the bison is literally in the middle of the road. \n\nI'm just saying I'm glad that it wasn't me in that specific situation because I would have a hard time deciding the right course of action.\n\n",
"Top speeds in YS are 45mph. Throw in the fact that most people drive 5-10 over speed limit you're reaching the 50mph range.\n\nIn the photo you can see just past the Buffalo is a dip in the road that light isn't reaching that could easily hide a large animal that you may not see within 50 feet or so. At 50mph you have about half a second to react before you reach 50 feet.\n\nIt's very easy to see how a deadly accident could reasonably happen even if you're not being extremely reckless.",
"Haha yeah, they do that all the time. They love walking on the road. Mostly, just don't move your car. If they start coming towards you, you have no choice but to back up. \n\nI did once see a sheriff from Lodge Grass go about 50mph by a bunch of them, and honk and be aggressive towards them. He was an asshole. ",
"This is when you find out if the horsepower number you saw on your car's sticker was true.",
"Same thing happened to me a couple of years ago. Driving back from a spot where we had eaten dinner and it was dark. We were way up north, I think it was the same day we had spent at the Boiling River, so we had been in Montana. We were on some small road driving back to our campground and suddenly the driver slams on the brakes because a lone bison is walking through the middle of the road. ",
"That is indeed the top speed, but you're not going to be doing that on most of the roads. Most people don't even drive in the Park at night. Not to mention, I don't know what you're doing if you don't adjust your speed for conditions, such as nighttime and the possibility of large bovine in the road. That's just common sense. \n\nI lived in Montana for most of my life, and I lived in Bozeman for a really long time, and have been to Yellowstone many many times. It's just not that big a deal as long as you don't drive like an idiot. Also, most people go to Yellowstone for Old Faithful and Grand Prismatic, and they mostly enter the Park from West. The bison like to hang in mostly the northern part of the Park like Mammoth and the Lamar Valley, so it's not like the most populated parts of the Park are where all the Bison are. ",

"Can confirm, I was in a car that hit a Bison in Yellowstone while working there in 2014. The girl driving was going 45 and came over a hill near Elk Antler creek in the Hayden Valley, the Bison was walking in our lane coming up the other side of the hill. Luckily all three of us in the car were wearing our seat belts and there were no major injuries (other than the Bison's), but her car was absolutely destroyed.",

"\"Sup?\" \"Not much, just being a buffalo...\"",
"When I was a kid we were in a 1975 Chevy van driving at night in Yellowstone. We saw something in between us and the on coming headlights so we stopped. This huge herd ran around both sides of our van but one of the last ones couldn't decide which side to go on and ran into us with his head and shoulder. The van rolled back and he just shook his head and ran off. Ended up denting the steel grill and house pretty good. ",
"I have a very morbid question: Did the bison die very quickly or was it still suffering for quite awhile after the chaos ended? Living in a place where people hit moose fairly often, I've always wondered if I should expect one to still be moving and moaning if I were to ever hit one.",

"We were going fast enough to cause the Bison to flip over the roof of the car and land in the street behind us, and the driver of the car behind us, who helped us after the accident, said that the Bison got up immediately and ran 100 yards or so into the woods off of the valley. The rangers however claimed that it might have run off out of shock and likely died in the woods shortly after, although they never found it.\nThere are a lot of stories about Bison being unfazed after being struck by cars, but I think the one we hit probably had some serious damage because of how fast we were going.",
"And he's thinking, \"goddammit I can't even go on a walk in the middle of the night without running into one of these assholes...\"",
"it is... just inside the park entrance from West Yellowstone. Almost hit him last year.",
"Drove through Yellowstone on our honeymoon. Late evening, snow falling, extremely dark. Being mid-winter, the park is fairly deserted. \n\nAs we’re driving slowly through the woods, a car coming the other direction flashes his lights and waves out the window. We pull up beside him and roll down the window. \n\n“Be careful, there’s bison in the road up ahead!” the driver says. \n\nOk, great. But there isn’t another road marked on the map that goes in this direction, so we’ll have to chance it. Maybe the bison will have moved off the road? Hopefully? I creep ahead at 3mph. \n\nBefore too long we round a bend and see the bison, walking slowly towards us. Then another. Then another. Then another. We’ve been briefed on bison encounters at the ranger station, so throwing the car in reverse seems inadvisable. \n\nWe sit in the car for ten minutes as the entire bison herd plods casually around the car. Bison if all sizes walk around the car like water moving around a rock in a stream. They passed close enough that I could have rolled down the window and touched them. The wife is elated, I am terrified. \n\nAnd then they were gone, disappearing up the road in the snow. Not one showed any interest in the car whatsoever. Never saw one that close again, thank goodness. \n",

No fucks given. Just running around with a donkey that it shares the yard with.\n\nThe surprising part is that sometimes their gate is open, and the bison makes no inclination to run out and act like a goof. \n\nBecause of this, we dub it ‘Good Boy’ Bryson the Bison. \n\nThere was a statue a couple towns over that was of a bison. Told the kids that the town made a statue of him because of how good a boy Bryson is. \nEven came across a slot machine in Vegas with bisons all over it. This was because Vegas wanted to congratulate Bryson for being a good boy.\n\nNow, with all that said. I have to show my kids this picture in the morning.

"I saw the show in Portland. It was one of the first of the tour, and when this bit of the show came round (toward the end if i recall), the graphics didn't work right. they finished the song, then he apologized for it not working, and they restarted the song about midway through. then the white pyramid worked, but the rainbow one didn't, so they ran it back again. it was hilarious, and eventually we got to set the entire effect, and he was very determined for us to see it. ",
"Looks like a mash up of pink Floyd and daft punk. ",
"Does he still require you to declare your antisemitic views before entry?",
"For those that may not know, that’s supposed to be a prism, not a pyramid. It’s a 3D version from the Darkside of the Moon album. \n\nEdit word...",

"Saw the show in San Antonio last year on a hit of acid. I mean is there any other way to see a Pink Floyd show? It was fucking amazing!",
"I went to a show in the The Wall tour a few years back, when something went wrong in the process of building it. The Wall wall that is. Roger came out of that little hatch he uses when he sings Mother together with little miserable Roger from 1980 on video, and told jokes and stories from his meetings with Gorbachev etc for a good 15 minutes, while his crew worked frantically behind the The Wall wall.

"My dad surprised me with tickets to this show in Tampa and it was phenomenal. This was something he told me he wanted to do with me for a very long time so he actually hooked it up and got us tickets 6 rows from the stage. We saw The Who many many years ago when I was like 12 or 13 and that had always been the consensus number 1 concert but this show was something special. Now he and I both agree they were both so good in their own ways that neither can be deemed as the best show we have been to but more of a 1a and 1b situation. It's something I truly will never forget.",
"Not Dark Side specific. Did a bunch of Pink Floyd songs from different albums and a couple of his solo stuff. Amazing show, saw it in Brooklyn. ",
"I went to the Boston show with my son and my father. Absolutely incredible. All the lights and imagery were perfect(unless you happened to be seated on the floor when the giant screens came down, who knows what they saw) My son,13, is a metalhead and we’ve been to countless shows already but he’d never been to anything like this and I was so happy to share it with him and my dad.",
"He’s promoting his new album while also playing the old Pink Floyd songs from DSOTM, WYWH, Animals and many more. Totally worth it!",
"Oh shit Nu-Gundam's at it again",
"I've got some bad news for you Sunshine. . .\n\n\nSaw post Waters Floyd in 1994 on the Division Bell tour. They closed the first set with One of These Days. Between the terrifyingly aggressive sounds, pyrotechnics that burned my face 50 yards away and the cloud of pot smoke hovering in the stadium I had nightmares for weeks. Most impressive visual show I've ever seen. ",

"For quite a while I was trying to figure out how they got the beams to stop when they intersected.

"The Wall and Us +Them were two of the best shows I have ever been to in my life. I hope that he continues to tour, no one should miss out on this show.",
"Wearing my Desert Trip shirt today, actually\n\nFantastic show from everyone. Waters as the last one on Sunday night was the perfect way to cap off the weekend.",
"Amazing show. How did the audience react to \"Pigs\" and the Trump imagery ? I saw it in NYC so the crowd was applauding. I'm curious abut the reaction in places where Trump is popular. ",
"Oh, he busted out with the pyramid and a multicolored laser light show. Those guys just never stop thinking.",

"I could only imagine what an awesome show it was. I have not been to a Roger Waters concert yet but David Gilmour was so amazing, I almost cried. ",
"I'm failing to see your point? A glowing triangle backdrop vs creating a 150 foot 3-D pyramid above the audience are not the same thing. ",
"I was there as well. Wonderful show, the effects were great, and it was awesome to hear the variety of Pink Floyd's music. I still think The Wall was an overall better show, but nothing tops hearing Dogs played live. What a jam.",
"Was this in Oslo? Or was this a general occurance.",
"A triangle in 3 dimensions has 4 sides. The triangular base and 3 triangular sides. \n\nA Pyramid has 5 sides. The square base and 4 triangular sides.",
"Oh, my bad. Damn Terrorist Sympathizers! Is that more like it?",
"maybe it's a statement about THE WALL",
"It was already in Mexico I believe.... I know he did 2 shows there before Desert Trip, and I think this tour went through there as well",
"There is no such thing as a triangle in 3 dimensions. ",
"That was in Oslo, yes. I guess it was a pure technical snafu, and he just had to entertain the crowd somehow",
"Pink Floyd's pyramid is from 1973",
"I saw him in NY a few months ago. Great show. I was completely mesmerized by the prism. lol",
"> And what’s a triangle in 3 dimensions?\n\nA Toblerone.",
"He did build the biggest wall he had built for The Wall for the show I went to... Coincidence? I think not",
"Saw him in Kansas City last May the day before my 30th birthday and it was one of the best shows/nights of my life! Such an amazing performance from start to finish!",
"But howd they get to light beams to cancel at the tip?",
"I do remember he played a show here around the time Trump was campaigning/got elected that kinda got political and he threw a bunch of shit at Trump, but I didn't know it was for this tour... ",
"*St. Paul",
"Yeah, I was at the same concert. Had goosebumps throughout the first set. A shame with the mess-up, killed the mood slightly, but overall a very good show!",
"Techincally, they're both pyramids but you're correct.",
"That does look amazing ! I went for David Gilmour concert 2 years ago i am still waiting to go to roger waters one day... Amazing",
"Waters in the Division Bell?",
"> 1. a monumental structure with a square or triangular base and sloping sides that meet in a point at the top, especially one built of stone as a royal tomb in ancient Egypt.\n\nHuh. I always thought a pyramid could only have a square base. I just learned something new today. Thanks!",
"Ah, yes, Xcel Center - correct. Thanks!",
"It’s on Brain Damage/Eclipse.",
"fucking amazing",
"Did he spend the whole show bitching about Trump like he did in Edmonton? Really ruined the show, considering he was in western Canada... ",
"I regret not going to his show in Dallas. ",
"Got to see this show over in Portland this June. Incredible show. My pictures was a lot more blurry ",
"He said \"post Waters Floyd\".... all good.... nothing to see here. ",

"I hope you were on acid ",
"Waters' In The Flesh at the Rose Garden in Portland was my first big concert that my dad took me to.... it completely threw off my standard of a \"good concert\". He puts on one hell of a show.",
"I was there as well. I recall him saying something to the effect of “these people paid good money for this gimmick!” \nI found it all very charming. ",
"That show was so good",

I was scared of being disappointed and didnt want to ruin that. I wasn't let down at all, first time I've ever cried at a show. How they modernized the album tastefully, played it perfectly with phenomenal showmanship and connected a room full of strangers was truly beautiful. \n\nMade me love them even more and is still my favorite show to this day! 10/10 would recommend.",
"Ha yeah I was there, it was awesome",
"I went to see the Wall tour as well! It was breathtaking from a technical level, and I teared up in quite a few places (it's a very personal album to me), but I was in a smaller city in the middle of the tour, and poor Roger clearly wasn't feeling as much of the artistic fury and passion he'd had while putting the show together.

I'll just watch The Wall on my widescreen TV and sit real close....\n\nI saw Waters about 10 years ago and saw Dave's Floyd in about 96 so I think I got them covered kind of...",
"Yeah - he has always been amazing with using awesome chick vocalists to full effect- always a highlight!",

"That's insane. Sometime explain how. Lasers? Must be high powered lasers.",
"Not what they had. ",
"Yeah. I saw it in Edmonton and the entire show was fantastic until that part and he lost me. But, he brought it all back when at the end of the show he had a chat with the audience and acknowledged that most of the imagery was directed toward America and that Canada is on a different level. Didn't feel like pandering; he was very sincere about the entire show. ",
"Goddamn. I got chills, man. ",
"Your picture is much better than mine but I saw him last year at the Pepsi Center in Colorado and was by far the greatest concert I've been to and probably will ever go to.\n https://i.imgur.com/78bkG3y.jpg",
"Damn... he really has annexed the Pink Floyd back catalogue.",
"People like me in the upper back row lost sight of half the band while it was up. #lame \n\nI'm a big guy too and being shoulder to shoulder with a bunch of middle aged people was not fun. Hope everyone enjoyed themselves tho. Was kinda cool but the album's beat the preformence I got. The two girls were world class tho ",
"I saw Roger in Chicago, the summer 2017 and I recorded this part of the show if anyone is interested, its worth a view! \n\n https://youtu.be/Aoj5O5C13rI",
"You've got to be crazy...",
"I like Roger and PF but dude really, just keep the politics out of good music. ",
"Yeah, you have to pay a little more to get the good seats. I usually go onto stubhub a month or so after the tickets are released and find the best seat I can afford. My wife never goes with me so I only ever have to pay for one ticket. This time around I was to the right of the soundboard, but off the floor.\n\n2010 I got a VIP package for the United Center and got 4th row floor. That was the best. There was a buffet and open bar, and I met a lot of great people there.\n\n2012 I sprung for front row at Wrigley for The Wall. It was worth it since I had already seen the show from a more distant vantage point, and I was dead center so I was 10 feet away from the band most of the show. Problem is I got to see how the sausage is made, in a way. Lots of lip synching that night.",
"Sounds like some engineer’s gonna get a talking to",
"I still do. This video wasn't like my crowd(St Louis). The place erupted in amazement and cheer. Could hear everyone inhale.",
"I was pretty disappointed as it was my first concert. ",
"Brisbane!!! I was there too :D",
"Saw him when he came to Nashville.\n\nAbsolutely great show. Effects and all.",
"I went to see him in Nashville, TN. \n\nCrowd gave plenty of cheers for the anti Trump imagery. And last i checked TN had one of the higher approval ratings for him on a state by state basis.",
"So, Waters played a couple of gigs in my state and I had wanted to see him since I was too young to see PF before he left. \n\nAs I'm looking for tickets I see the prices are pretty outrageous. Mind you I've only been to a handful of concerts and only a couple of the caliber of Roger Waters. The floor near the stage was over $1,000, I believe. The back of floor is over $500. Progressively getting farther from the stage it's $400, $300, $200. I'm buying for two people so I decide on the $200 seats but it looks like they're sold out except for a few 3 and 4 seat blocks that the site wouldn't break up. I couldn't afford over $600 for three $200 seats plus whatever Dickumaster was going to tack on. So I get two $80 ticket seats....nose bleed section. \n\nMy girl and I get there and as we're finding our way up the stadium progressively higher we run into a suit dressed guy stopping us from going up the stairwell to our thin atmosphere seats. In his right hand he's clutching a bunch of tickets and offers us two upgrades for exactly where I had wanted to originally buy seating but couldn't. \n\nIt was a very awesome night! The concert was awesome! Seeing Waters for the first time was awesome! ",
"Did he bitch about Trump for 2 hours again? He did that in Philly.",
"Saw his show in Vegas for this tour, visually and musically awesome. Didn’t care for the politics visuals but I’m not political at all anyway. I understand he uses his music to voice his opinion and more power to him. Regardless he’s an awesome musician ",
"Sorry, man.",
"Nope. But I know your first sentence was wrong. ",
"Hahaha okay buddy...",

"So back in the 80s I worked for this company that had me travelling a lot. They paid a fixed per-diem for expenses which was intended to cover lodging, meals, etc. The per-diem would vary depending on location but for the UK it was pretty generous. In order to make a bit of money I would often stay at B&Bs (which were MUCH cheaper than hotels -- this was in London) and pocket the difference. \n\nOn this one trip I stayed with this lovely -- truly, lovely -- elderly couple whose kids had long since moved away and were renting out one of their bedrooms to make a little extra income. They charged me £7.50/night but here's the kicker -- for 50p more they would include an English breakfast. I thought what the hell, I liked to get up late and didn't have much time to go to restaurants for breakfast so why not? Imagine my surprise the next morning when I came down to the dining room and found a spread that looked EXACTLY like this waiting for me. I actually felt guilty paying only 50p and offered to pay more but they absolutely insisted on 50p. I think I put on 10 pounds that trip!\n\nI'm sure it's changed a lot today with Airbnb etc. but back then B&Bs were an awesome way to visit a country (especially the UK). They were often run by friendly gregarious people who weren't just running a business; they wanted to make a bit of money, sure, but they also wanted to meet people from other parts of the world and telling them about your home over dinner was an absolute must. We would have long discussions late into the evening where I learned a lot about England and they about Canada. Not only was this an economical way to travel but it was also a great way to meet locals, lodge in a nice cozy family environment, and learn a lot about a country.",

"Most slices of bread are actually 100-120 calories in a standard serving size. Some of those slices are pretty thick, so probably a little more but I'm being conservative. Butter itself is around 100 calories per tablespoon. So buttered bread is most certainly at the very least 150-170, assuming someone uses half a tbsp per slice. So five buttered slices would be anywhere from 750-850 calories total at the bottom end.\n\n\nIt also looks like there's four slices of bacon (the real kind). Assuming there's two pan fried slices to a serving and 50 cal per serving, that's 100 calories of bacon.\n\n\nTwo large eggs are anywhere from 60-70 calories each, so two of them would be 120-140 calories.\n\n\nOne cup of baked beans can be upward of 400 calories.\n\n\nHaving no clue how many calories are in the other items... I would say the 1500 calorie estimate being given by some people is way too conservative. It's probably closer to 2000 than 1500. I mean just the items I listed are easily 1300-1500 calories alone.

The origin of the word tandoor is said to come from various ancient languages such as Persian, Babylonian and Sanskrit.\n\nInitially, chicken tikka masala was baked in large pieces in a tandoor oven. Along came emperor Babur, founder of the Mughal Empire. Legend has it that Babur was deathly afraid of choking on a chicken bone, so he instructed his chef to remove all bones from his chicken and cut it into small pieces. This is considered the first step on the evolution of the dish that we know and love today.",

You're changing the rules of the game to somehow justify us not being on top of the food chain, when any biologist will tell you this is in fact true. Also how are guns unnatural? Apes throw rocks at each other to show dominance and this is considered natural - humans used their hands to create little devices to throw little rocks really fucking fast to show dominance, it's the exact same principle.

This means that the target material is subjected to stresses faster than it can deform away from those stresses, which causes the \"explosion\" looking effect rather than a dent or dimple.\n\nWhat's really interesting is the BACK side of the sample. In that solid block you'll see something called **spalling** or **spall**. This is when those impact forces travel through the material and reflect off the back wall. That reflection concentrates the forces and causes the back wall to buckle or even shoot off debris, even when the thick plating isn't penetrated! This can be lethal!\n\nThe smaller sample to the side is micrometeoroid shielding. It's two thin layers of aluminum spaced apart by a honeycomb. This allows the projectile to impact the first layer, which it punches through, blows the projectile into tiny fragments. Then the spacer allows time for those fragments to spread out from each other, and the final thin layer can hopefully absorb those fragments which are now spread out over a much larger area and moving slower.",

"You're relcome",
"The difference is that in a moving projectile test, we don't care about how we accelerate the projectile and the test block doesn't really move much so it just lives in a vice. \n\nIf you were trying to observe the test block after it had been thrown, the setup would obviously have to be completely different. Throwing a chunk of metal at a wall from 15kmph just results in a cloud of metal after all. You'd have to gently accelerate and decelerate it which would be a hell of a lot more work. If you could create that setup, the results would be identical. ",

Point taken.\n\nEdit: secondary consideration of importance, how would you even suspend the pellet so that the block strikes it but strikes nothing else?",
"\"Hits at 15,000 mph IN SPACE\" question was, \"same result if aluminum moves and plastic doesn't?\" So you recontextualizing the question to be about the experiment meant as a simulation for the claim instead of the claim itself is disingenuous.",

The only reason we say the plastic hit the Al is because the Al is much bigger so thats where we set our reference point to. (Easier to explain to people without a good sci background)",
"You are getting into difficulties by changing what is going on in the collision to match restrictions of doing it in a lab like fixing the aluminum so it isn't moving after impact etc. I know you have no particular reason to believe it of a random internet stranger but I am an engineer and this is first year of uni mechanics stuff (if not already covered at school). You should also realise that the person asked about changing the reference frame for the situation of collision in space, not 'what is the difference between firing the plastic into a fixed block and firing the block into a wall'.\n\nIt is unlikely the aluminium wasn't moving (in reference to the earth). It was probably between a low earth orbit moving at 28,080 km/h up to a geostationary one at 11 052 km/h. The speed given in the situation is the relative velocity of both parts.\n\nIn the experiment example, you should consider how the objects would be moving AFTER the impact. Treating the aluminium as stationary would see the pair move on at an almost stationary state as the momentum of the combined mass would equal the plastic. With the aluminium block moving, both would continue at about the original aluminium velocity as the mass has hardly changed.\n\nLet's look at the maths with the assumptions that (1) no mass on the aluminium is lost, just moved around to form the crater and (2) the plastic is fully absorbed (3) Newtonian mechanics are sufficiently accurate at this scale.\n\nThe momentum of the plastic moving is 0.015kg x 6705.6m/s = 100.584\n\nLets treat the aluminium block as 10\"x10\"x4\" and therefore has a mass of 17.69802912kg. Add the plastic and we have 17.71302912kg.\n\nThe final velocity is 100.584/17.71302912 = 5.67853184899m/s While this if a decent pace in our lives (12.7mph) in comparison to 15,000mph it is basically 0.\n\nLets do it the other way. The 15,000mph block would have a momentum of 6705.6 x 17.698 = 118675.7088 (notice how it is much more than the plastic's momentum)\n\nFinding the new end speed: 118675.7088/17.71302912 = 6699.91044423. Notice that the change is still 5.6785...m/s\n\nIf we do this with any set of velocities with a difference of 15,000mph we get the same change because all we are doing is changing our reference frame, be it looking up from earth, piggy backing on the block, or sailing by at any arbitrary speed. This was one of the key things about kinematics. We can test the strength of windscreens and plane canopies against birdstrikes (flying or driving into a bird) by shooting a bird at a stationary test vehicle. The interaction is identical.\n\nReading a few of your other comments you may have slightly misunderstood what is happening with the conservation of energy in this case. It is true that energy will be conserved, but it doesn't have to be kinetic energy. We can see one place a lot of energy has gone: the deformation of all that aluminium. That energy will have then been dissipated as heat.",
"Sure. Simple. \n\nSpeed is purely a relative measurement. You're measuring something based on a fixed point that could be anything. \n\nSOOOOOOO.\n\nI would shoot the plastic pellet at the aluminum block. I would keep the point of origin at the pellet. Imagine if you where small enough to live on the pellet. It would look to you as if the block is moving towards you. Therefore it would be an accurate representation of what would happen if the pellet was not moving but the block was.\n\nYou're big hang up is conceptualizing the FACT that motion is relative and can be manipulated by moving the point of origin.\n\nYou might be sitting in your chair right now as not moving but, if the point of origin was moved to the sun you'd be zipping around pretty fast.",
"Nope. To accelerate mass to superluminal velocity would require an infinite amount of fuel because as you accelerate, the mass of the object increases. The mass of all your on board fuel would also increase. Light speed really is the universal speed limit for mass.",
"Funnily enough while the idea you are getting at is true the actual example you provided is not a good one, even if you ignore air resistance. Standing on the earth is not an inertial frame from the perspective of general relativity - it’s equivalent to being accelerated at 1 g upwards. Grabbing onto a comet in freefall is representative of an inertial frame. \n\nThe firing of block vs. projectile is equivalent from the point of view of the collision. It should all happen so fast that gravity can be ignored. You’re right about that. ",

"As was said, how exactly does an object that gets dropped while in orbit all of a sudden just start speeding up to the point of doing great damage?

Things don't \"drop\" in weightlessness. Dropping requires gravity.\n\nIt also makes no sense for the hammer to orbit the Earth ahead of the space station fast enough to make it around the Earth and get back to the space station in as period of time where the hammer would be identified and expected and known about. I mean, assuming a relative velocity of 10mph, that would take decades. Somehow it got dropped at thousands of miles per hour? How? Not to mention that the hammer would need to be aimed extremely precisely to end up right back at the ISS and not end up on some other angular orbit. Even being a thousandths of a degree off when \"dropped\" would cause it to miss the ISS by hundreds or thousands of miles.",
"They currently track more than 500,000 pieces of space debris in a whole range of sizes. When they detect that a piece of this debris will get too close to the ISS they will adjust the orbit of the station to avoid it. If a piece of debris is detected too late to make an orbital adjustment they will move the crew to a safe area (usually one of the ships that go them there) so if the ISS does get hit they will still be in a safe area with life support and the ability to de-orbit if it ever came to that.",

"[hank](https://youtu.be/rM02vHtftd0)",
"> How do we prevent this stuff? \n\nDon't put things in space. Every time we launch a new satellite, thousands or even millions of new high-velocity objects are created. Most of those fall back to Earth after a time, but there's an ever-growing cloud of space junk up there waiting to do this to satellites and people. NORAD can only track stuff as small as a couple centimeters in size. Last I checked, that's still ~500,000 objects. Smaller stuff exists in the hundreds of millions. And that's JUST the artificial stuff. The Earth gets hit by ~50,000 tons of natural meteorites every year.\n\nThe only thing that has thus far prevented the ISS and other satellites from being turned into junk (generating a fresh cloud of debris) is blind, doo-dah luck. Space is really big, and most of it is empty. But the more we pollute space with junk (like, ahem, cars...), the greater the odds become. There will come a point where we encounter what is known as the Kessler Syndrome: some large object gets blasted into junk, that creates more debris that blast more stuff to rubble, and you have a runaway chain reaction.\n",

"I sortof understand his argument but he's describing it poorly. I'm going to give it a go and see if this sounds about right.\n\nHe's looking at it from the perspective of the experiment, not the real-world application in space. On Earth, we have gravity and friction giving objects more resistance to change. Think about the classic experiment where you shoot a gun in zero G. You move backwards, right? On Earth, standing up, our shoes provide enough friction with the ground to absorb the energy. Thus, it's not a perfectly accurate comparison.\n\nI'm assuming in this experiment the aluminum object was kept stationary, whereas in space it would be a free-floating object. As a stationary object, almost all the energy goes into deforming the surface of the aluminum. In space, part of that energy would go to moving the aluminum backward which would probably result in a smaller crater.\n\nNow the part about accelerating the aluminum block. Since we're dealing with Earth as a reference point, the plastic object is given *X* amount of energy and the plastic hits the block at 15k mph. *X* = the energy needed to accelerate the tiny object to 15k mph. Given that, *X* energy would only accelerate the aluminum block up to maybe a couple hundred MPH. So on Earth, an experiment where we accelerate the aluminum block up to 15k mph would be a MUCH higher energy experiment and would not have the same conclusion as an experiment where the plastic is moving.\n\nHis argument stems from the fact that, on Earth, we measure velocity on Earth in terms relative to Earth but in space, we measure velocity in terms of 2 independent bodies interacting with eachother.",

Everything is enclosed and happens so fast...he was typing at the computer, there was a click from the machine. Experiment done.\n\nHe pulls up grainy B&W photo thumbnails... \"These are all 1,000,000 frames that was just shot in 1 second. Here's what's left of the sample we fired at.\" (they all looked like the same image to me).\n\n\"Every time we shoot the gun, it costs us $10,000. When NASA does this exact same experiment, it costs them about a half million. The reason is scientists are paid a lot more per hour than grad students. Therefore, they outsource this kind of work to us.\"\n\n**Edit**\n\nI'm probably wrong about the specific numbers here, this was a conversation I had years ago.

It was because the energy of the impact (snowball hitting a wall, or asteroid hitting the moon) exceeded the force of the bonds holding the snowball/asteroid together, which essentially causes a spontaneous, instant disintegration of the projectile immediately upon impact, leaving nothing left but a crater of uniform, symmetrical shop/orientation. \n\nWhat is their phenomenon called? This situation (hypervelocity impact) sounds very similar, but not as extreme, since the projectile in this case was still intact.\n",

And they can, but only if the projectile is moving relatively slowly.\n\nEssentially if the kinetic energy of the projectile exceeds the binding force of its molecular bonds, it will essentially explode upon impact and vaporize, causing a circular crater.\n\nThis is why we don't see many oblong meteor impact craters. Meteors strike at all different angles, but the resulting craters are always roughly circular. \n\nAnd what's more you can actually test this for yourself. Go make a snowball and throw it against a wall. Regardless of whether you throw it dead on or from an angle it will leave a circular mark on the wall because the snowball is held so loosely together.\n\nBut if you pack it super tight and don't throw it very hard it will leave a longer mark if thrown from an angle.",

The last thing you want to have to do is literally drink your ship's defense against space debris.\n\nPlus, in order for it to reliably self heal, it would have to be a fairly thin layer, which wouldn't have much stopping power for something like that.

The influence of the moon and other outside forces pulls orbits off course in such a way that once they move too far, the outside forces take on an opposite effect and pull them back to the starting orbit. This causes the orbit to very slowly move back and forth, and create the 15 degree offset in either direction that I mentioned.\n\nThe friction question, though, I'm unsure on. If the orbit gets super low, then we'd have to get into atmospheric air density profiles and that shit is complicated.

[
"[More from me](http://www.marinamaral.com)\n________\n\n\nSir Charles Spencer Chaplin (16 April 1889 – 25 December 1977) was an English comic actor, filmmaker, and composer who rose to fame in the era of silent film. Chaplin became a worldwide icon through his screen persona \"the Tramp\" and is considered one of the most important figures in the history of the film industry. His career spanned more than 75 years, from childhood in the Victorian era until a year before his death in 1977, and encompassed both adulation and controversy.\n\n\n\nChaplin's childhood in London was one of poverty and hardship. As his father was absent and his mother struggled financially, he was sent to a workhouse twice before the age of nine. When he was 14, his mother was committed to a mental asylum. Chaplin began performing at an early age, touring music halls and later working as a stage actor and comedian. At 19, he was signed to the prestigious Fred Karno company, which took him to America. Chaplin was scouted for the film industry and began appearing in 1914 for Keystone Studios. He soon developed the Tramp persona and formed a large fan base. Chaplin directed his own films from an early stage and continued to hone his craft as he moved to the Essanay, Mutual, and First National corporations. By 1918, he was one of the best-known figures in the world.\n\n\n\nIn 1919, Chaplin co-founded the distribution company United Artists, which gave him complete control over his films. His first feature-length was The Kid (1921), followed by A Woman of Paris (1923), The Gold Rush (1925), and The Circus (1928). He refused to move to sound films in the 1930s, instead producing City Lights (1931) and Modern Times (1936) without dialogue. Chaplin became increasingly political, and his next film, The Great Dictator (1940), satirised Adolf Hitler. The 1940s were a decade marked with controversy for Chaplin, and his popularity declined rapidly. He was accused of communist sympathies, while his involvement in a paternity suit and marriages to much younger women caused scandal. An FBI investigation was opened, and Chaplin was forced to leave the United States and settle in Switzerland. He abandoned the Tramp in his later films, which include Monsieur Verdoux (1947), Limelight (1952), A King in New York (1957), and A Countess from Hong Kong (1967).\n\n\n\nBy October 1977, Chaplin's health had declined to the point that he needed constant care. In the early morning of 25 December 1977, Chaplin died at home after suffering a stroke in his sleep. He was 88 years old. The funeral, on 27 December, was a small and private Anglican ceremony, according to his wishes. Chaplin was interred in the Corsier-sur-Vevey cemetery. Among the film industry's tributes, director René Clair wrote, \"He was a monument of the cinema, of all countries and all times ... the most beautiful gift the cinema made to us.\" Actor Bob Hope declared, \"We were lucky to have lived in his time.\"\n\n\n\nOn 1 March 1978, Chaplin's coffin was dug up and stolen from its grave by two unemployed immigrants, Roman Wardas, from Poland, and Gantcho Ganev, from Bulgaria. The body was held for ransom in an attempt to extort money from Oona Chaplin. The pair were caught in a large police operation in May, and Chaplin's coffin was found buried in a field in the nearby village of Noville. It was re-interred in the Corsier cemetery surrounded by reinforced concrete.\n\nChaplin wrote, directed, produced, edited, starred in, and composed the music for most of his films. He was a perfectionist, and his financial independence enabled him to spend years on the development and production of a picture. His films are characterised by slapstick combined with pathos, typified in the Tramp's struggles against adversity. Many contain social and political themes, as well as autobiographical elements. In 1972, as part of a renewed appreciation for his work, Chaplin received an Honorary Academy Award for \"the incalculable effect he has had in making motion pictures the art form of this century\". He continues to be held in high regard, with The Gold Rush, City Lights, Modern Times, and The Great Dictator often ranked on industry lists of the greatest films of all time.",

"He is just one person in a huge industry though, and it is an industry that would have been huge with or without him. Technology was hitting the point of critical mass, he just happened to be one of the people with the right combination of business sense and technical know-how to get rich in the process.\n\nEven the most basic aspect of Microsoft: the \"window\" for which \"Windows\" was named, and what made the OS so much easier to use than what already existed on computers, was not his idea. Both Steve Jobs and Bill Gates openly acknowledged the fact that much of the basics of their interface (WIMP - window, icon, menu, pointing device) were based on work done by Xerox. Xerox made a poor business decision to not capitalize on their invention, which left room for others to come in several years later. These newer versions had improved, sure, but much of the groundwork was taken directly from Xerox (Apple literally hired the same engineers who had worked on the project at Xerox to come and make their GUI).\n\nXerox, in turn, based their work on what came before, specifically systems developed with GUIs and deployed by the US Air Force as early as 1958.\n\nGates, Jobs, and Wozniak were very talented in their own ways, but they were also participants in what was an active community of homebrew computer builders. What if they hadn't come to a near monopoly on computers quite so early on? Would Xerox never have gotten around to marketing their PC? Would none of the other homebrew computer builders figure out how to make something that caught on? That seems unlikely. They are entrepreneurs who found a way to make personal success out of a slight advantage within a community of like-minded individuals.\n\nGates didn't make us wealthy, he made himself wealthy. We would have had similar technologies either way, most of what he did was make sure he made money in the process.

"I'm not incompetent, I realize how much money that is. But let's just try to think critically here. Start with the fact that he did earn that money, it wasn't stolen and it didn't magically appear. Just like a doctor, lawyer or engineer, he had a skill/ product that people were willing to hand over money for.\n\nAnd again, he doesn't just have that money laying around. As I said before, but you don't seem to have read it, nearly all of that money is in physical assets (i.e. companies, property, etc). If he gave away all of his companies and investments, then he wouldn't be earning money to actively give away. So tell me which is better, scrap his companies and just give it all away (like you're proposing, getting rid of 90% of his net worth), or earning money daily and giving all of that money to charity? He gets to decide what happens with that money, where someone else might keep it, he gives it to charity. That sounds like a net positive. If he got rid of everything, you're take a huge (incredibly unlikely) chance that the people who would now own those companies would give all of the money they earn to charities. \n\nNot to mention that him not having that money (let's just assume it gets distributed to everyone in the US instead of having bought anything from his companies), then thats $250. To cover your original comment, I don't know about you but if I just had $250 more than I have now, I probably wouldn't just give it away to \"people who are starving\", I'd probably spend it on myself and my family.\n\n Sure, he has lots of money, but that doesn't mean he's obligated in any way to just give it all away, despite the fact that he actively does give away more money than you ever could. So last point, just to cover it one more time, Net Worth =/= cash in hand. Compared to the kind of life he could be living with all that money, he's living pretty damn modestly.",

The increased taxation on people like my mother and father and potentially myself because I'm nearing the 40% tax bracket will pay for the less fortunate in the form of benefits, help woth rent and the oppertunity for education. All of these thigs are what is needes to truwly halp people, I still vote for a party that would make life worse for me and my whole family to try and effect change in the country. \n\nThere are many so called rich people that are actively voting against their own interests to aid the needy. Just because some people have done better for themselves in the society we as a collective have chosen democratically to live in doesn't make them evil. Simply adapting to your environment better than another person doesn't make you a bad person. What you choose to do with your vote is what's important.

I recognise I'm being a contrarian on some level here, but my argument here is that doing this is a morally *neutral* act, rather than a morally good one - it's about returning what you took from others (legally, but nonetheless) rather than creating some new positive thing.\n\nDe-personalising this, folks like Bill Gates and Elon Musk made billions by exploiting workers, alienating them from the product of their labour, and then they spent it on pet projects rather than returning it directly to the people (via a democratic government or similar). While using that money for social programmes is better than sitting on it like a dragon guarding their hoard (ala the Walton family), I'm loathe to see them held up as good people for returning a percentage of what they stole from society.\n\nI recognise this is an unpopular view, but rich people don't need defending. My basic stance is if you could house the homeless but instead you buy yourself a couple of fancy cars, that's morally wrong, and no amount of charitable work elsewhere can excuse that - and to be clear, I include myself in the category of people doing morally wrong things in that!

It isn't a matter of just shrinking the surface layers homogeneously, because they will not grow homogeneously and they will move around to some degree.

Not possible.\n\nEveryone else is talking about REMOVING rust. Not REVERSING or RECREATING. We're calling this \"RESTORATION\" but lets just remove the word \"RESTORE\" from the discussion because it's getting conflate with REVERSE and RECREATE.\n\nIt's very very possible that they could come up with a technology or methodology to REMOVE the existing rust in a way that preserves more detail or the integrity of the object. Rust is also a progression, so who knows how much better they could be at retrieving details from partially rusted objects that would have been removed before in a more imprecise process, either by a human or a chemical.\n\nI would agree that what they did with this axe is absolutely stunning. I wouldn't consider this restoration a loss to anyone, even if better technology comes along, but to say they won't be able to improve the process even in the next 50 years? \n\nI feel like you're really gambling against humanity and the exponential technological growth we're experiencing already kind of you proves wrong on that one, because in 50 years you'll probably be able to pop an object like this in to a machine with crazy precision robot arms that can internally scan an object, analyze the rust and metal on a microscopic level, and remove material with a finesse and accuracy and precision that a human or blanket chemical process is just not capable of.\n\n",

In addition, the entire concept of \"species\" assumes that there is a hard line on the evolutionary tree where a group of individuals ceases to be similar to another, rather than a gradient. In reality, every individual should be assumed to be its own unique case.\n\nImagine this. Species A evolved into subspecies B but can still breed back with species A. Subspecies B evolved into subspecies C but can still breed back with species B. Species C cannot breed back with species A. A can mate with B, B can mate with C but C cannot mate with A. How do you define that?\n\nThe answer is you need to redefine what \"species\" means.\n\nOn the other hand, I'll just live in my fantasy world where I can mate with sex crazed Klingons. Bat'liths ahoy!",
"Admittedly, I wasn’t using the textbook definition, since as you correctly pointed out, most evo bio books will go into depth about “the species concept.” The hardest line is the inability to get to the F2 generation, even though there are examples of that failing as well (non-sterile mules). I was just using shorthand to explain why we’d need to hybridize to adopt their traits.\n\nBut nothing says that we can’t try to figure out how to get however many Klingon “Bath’leths” into one human “sheathes,” or the inverse situation. Okay, just typing that out made me feel super dirty and nerdy. I need a bath.",
"Yeah I bet they went to school for it. ",
"Indiana Jones didn't learn shit. ",
"Are there any great subreddit for these sort of things?",
"Hahahaha yesssss Klingon sex puns.\n\nThe examples I provided were all passed the F2 generation, so they were viable hybrids, and there were multiple examples of them as well. Yes, there are technically a few F2 mules or wolphins, but there needs to be more than a handful for it to be a true, viable hybrid. Just because it happens once or twice does not mean they can truly interbreed.\n\nI vaguely remember hearing that there was a brief explanation for all of the Star Trek hybrids, something about all of the humanoid species have the same origin? Like they were all originally the same species and that's why they could all interbreed? Maybe that was a tiny retcon because so many people kept complaining. Maybe they'll slip it into Discovery or one of the new movies.",

"This is r/madlads worthy🤣",
"Well his name is popular enough now that I think a lot of people are instantly notified when he posts new stuff (this is possible in Reddit/RES, right?).\n\nLike I said I like his reposts/posts, I just don't buy that he's 1 person, he finds all this new content, curates it, and posts just because he loves it. He's benefiting from this somehow, and that just bothers me a lil bit (only enough to downvote, so not very much). If this is his job, if he works for an ad agency and 95% of his posts are meaningless to hide the 5% that are paid for, if he uses this account to advertise himself by demonstrating his social media skills, or however this is working out-- it feels corporate, non-organic.",
"He's the only one who is able to turn his karma points into cold hard cash. Unidan was another but he got mad at a crow or something and the reddit staff had him executed. Karmawhoring is good business if you do it enough.",
