The myth of the dangerous milieu
2023-12-24 20:33 Humans are not a particularly aggressive species.  Historically documented hunter-gatherers lie near the average for mammals.  At least if one looks at the risk of being killed by someone of the same species.
Self-control is overrated
2023-12-14 12:26 Something people tend to overestimate is self-control.  Bad habits and thought patterns are supposed to be easy to replace.  If it was that simple, why have they not already done so?
In defence of homosexuality
2023-12-07 12:29 Unfortunately, there are still plenty of people hostile to homosexuals.  They talk about homosexual behaviour which is supposed to be optional to everyone.
What is persecution?
2023-12-05 12:32 Most present-day Westerners have lived with a high degree of liberty for several generations. Many nowadays lack knowledge of what oppression means. It does not help regional customs has been called “oppressive”.
Ideas not part of science at all

To make a difference between different ideologies
2023-11-21 13:45 Some seem to believe that if one is against them one is for everything they themselves hate.  The trouble is all those ideas are too different from each other.  First, people are ascribed opinions which they in fact don’t have.
The origin and failure of communism
2023-11-15 12:58 There are so many misconceptions about communism.  Perhaps the worst is believing the expansion of welfare systems to automagically lead to planned economy.  This has never happened in real life.
Organisations claimed to conspire are too new
2023-11-07 10:35 Many flat-earthers claim the round Earth to be a hoax by the Freemasons.  How long to they think the Freemasons have existed, maybe 3,000 years?  I would rather say 300.
