  • Okay because Lemmy’s being Lemmy and poking holes at your question instead of even trying to provide a straight answer, I’m gonna assume you mean the Abrahamic god and say helocentrism and evolution were both ideas that the catholic church strongly opposed initially. Pretty much anything that says humans aren’t super special, actually, tends to not mesh with christian ideology, for obvious reasons. Modern day panpsychist ideas (the thought that consciousness is a fundamental property that becomes more complex with the complexity of the organism, or at the very least that plants and individual cells are conscious) are gaining hold in scientific communities lately and, if sufficiently proven/argued for (because consciousness is notoriously insufficiently defined), it’s probably gonna be another X on the accepted christian worldview.



  • I think the reason is less about “i, an individual, am getting my data harvested” (though certainly still a factor) byt more because China is still very much considered an enemy of the US, and they are not only harvesting americans data in a very invasive way - as in, recording pretty much everything you do on your phone, not just in the app - but an adversarial government now has access to all of that. Additionally, because the chinese “free market” has been effectively neutered in recent years, high chance that the CCP is able to influence TikTok’s algorithm to affect what people see and push propaganda.

  • Once again we’re being subject to the deep state’s WOKE agenda! First they tell us that RESPIRATORY ILLNESS and UNPASTURIZED DAIRY PRODUCTS are dangerous to control us and give us gay autism, and now they’re trying to brainwash us by scaring us away from our GOD GIVEN SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS!! Little snowflakes scared of a little lead?? Like this little semi-automatic riffle that I had somebody in Tennessee buy for me even though I have no use for it?? Scared of the wittle bullets I’m putting in? Scared of having a cute wittle gun pointed at you? Scared of resting it under your chin, like so? Scared of putting a wittle bit of pressure on the tr

  • The most effective ways to die sound painful, and even for the “painless” ones, if you fuck it up you either suffer way too long or get slapped with insane medical debt and locked up in a loony bin for a ehile (usa). While I don’t fear death itself or have a strong emotional attachment to the life I’m living right now, my life’s in no way bad, so it’s still an easy choice for me.
