Speaking of both Calvin and Hobbes and webcomics, I I’ve been curious to go back and look at Ozy and Millie/Dana’s old politoons. I seem to remember O&M tackling a lot of the same subject matter but more effectively. I wonder if they hold up.

Unfortunately this is reality this winter in much of Finland. Lapland is getting record snow, southern Finland has no snow and no sub-zero weather and then somewhere inbetween they generate snow for ski tracks and hope rains don't flush it right away.

Xander77 posted:I don't want to go down the google hole to insanity, but... what do these people think the earth is shaped like, why don't ships / planes fall off, and why is there a Have you ever looked at the UN logo? It's a top down view of the world with the north pole as the center. They think it's shaped like that and Antarctica is a circle of ice that wraps around the disc shaped world (but we're not fun like Discworld), which prevents boats from just falling right off the edge. Also they think airlines are in on the conspiracy and in fact they use planes as proof the world is flat. There is no explanation for why this conspiracy is being spread, but it goes hand in hand with the moon landing being faked (because we can't have gone to the moon and taken photos of the earth that show it to be a globe, you see). For a more in depth explanation of all their stupid poo poo, Hbomberguy did a video about it and that pretty much covers everything you ever didn't want to know about flat earthers.

Lietha getting on that transphobia train. Lots to love here: 1. The presumably cis girl being a string bean despite being on steroids 2. The trans woman is the classic hulking linebacker. 3. A linebacker in what appears to be a running competition, where being stacked like the hulk is a complete waste of your training time. 4. Continuing the lie that a dude can just announce they're a woman at the last minute and win, ignoring the (in some cases very unreasonable) hoops you gotta jump through to compete as a trans woman. 5. God is apparently non-binary.

Xander77 posted:Yeah, I've watched that video. One of Hbomb's worse videos, because it didn't answer any of the questions above. There's no actual consistency between flat earthers and what they believe apart from the belief that something is wrong with the world and we are being lied to by powerful people, both of which aren't actually incorrect. The actual things flat earthers believe can't be addressed directly because they fall into Not Even Wrong, a special definition of wrongness that means that their fundamental precepts are so far askew from reality that you can't even meaningfully argue against them because there's nothing there to argue against in a meaningful, rational way. They've learned to reject the evidence of their own eyes and ears in favour of the brain loops that they've already accepted as reality. They look at evidence that counters their beliefs, like direct flights that they've just said don't exist, or the actual curvature of the actual earth that can be observed from height, and say, with a straight face, "I don't believe that's real." Trying to meaningfully break down what any of them believe is an exercise in futility because they're not falsifiable; they're not based on evidence, and they can't be countered by evidence to the contrary. It's like trying to split hairs about God's nature or actions with a Christian, or argue the nature of the free market with a Libertarian.

Samurai Sanders posted:From what I understand, it's not "you" though, it's that they want to give SOMEONE ELSE free stuff. God I loving hate this argument. It's not FREE STUFF. It's paid for with taxes. We pay taxes so that those taxes can be spent on things that benefit us. There is no free anywhere in that calculation.

Poor people don't have money, therefore they aren't paying taxes (at least not to the degree that I, A Person With A Real Job, pay) and they're the ones that benefit for free (it doesn't matter that I benefit too, I paid for it so I should benefit). Rich people not paying taxes never enters into the equation at any point.

Mistikman posted:God I loving hate this argument. This makes me want to bash my head against a wall. I volunteer for a campaign trying to get universal preschool in our city. Yesterday I was gathering signatures and some guy wanted to know how it'd be paid for. "By taxing--" "See! There you go! If it's a tax it's not really free." "--the top 5% of the wealthiest people." "You people just want to keep piling taxes on us!" "Do you make under $200,000 a year? Then you won't pay any tax for this." "But it's not free, is it!"
