I understand, but I just have a hard time at seeing the world as anything but bleak, and even though misery and pain can, in some cases, help people mature, soon enough, they just get knocked down again like a bowling pin. And for many people, it can feel like they?re ridden with bad luck, even if it?s entirely random and indiscriminate.Caramel Frappe said:
I?ve had the worst four years of my life, and while I feel as if it has made me mature (although that could just be because I?m getting older), it doesn?t make me feel me any better. The most important thing it made me see is how shitty the world is and how it destroys people, and I?m not just talking about myself. I?m talking about loads of people, around the world, people suffering and it?s not even their fault.
I don?t like how some people think that they can just determine everything for a life that hasn?t even come into existence yet. Human beings have free will, and sure enough, they?re going to go off and do their own thing. Or maybe they?re not, and just drain the planet?s resources. No, they?ll do that either way. And everyone has to pay for it. And where?s that love now? Love doesn?t matter if you?re knee-deep in the mud. At the moment, no amount of kind gestures can give me hope that the next day or even the next week will be any better than the last. It?s just a fleeting joy that merely dissipates within the moment.
Thanks for your offer, and I might take you up on it in the future, if I need it. As I?ve aforementioned, I?m already on a waiting list for CBT, although I don?t know when I?ll actually ever get seen.
I think humanity needs some form of natural selection (unsure if under my view it should be called unnatural or imposed selection) or else we will face devolution. My thinking is that people who have genetic conditions, ill, weak or unintelligent shouldn?t be allowed to reproduce while the best and brightest should (sex would be allowed just not reproduction).
Make no mistake I don?t want to genocide those groups of people.
I know it?s a horrible theory but I think it will be necessary for humanity to keep evolving, plus we could potentially wipe out some genetic diseases within a few generations.

I wouldn't agree with a mass cull of the mentally and physically disabled, but damn, if you can see in the womb, long before birth is anywhere near, that your future child is going to never experience life in a normal, healthy way, by which I mean, having the independence to look after yourself, then I'd suggest let them go. Certainly they can express happiness and even love, but surely, given the choice wouldn't anyone wish their child was fit and healthy?
I'm afraid that I can never believe the words 'We'd not change a thing about our child', when he or she is unable to feed itself or use the bathroom unaided. If you're saying that it's not so different to saying 'We're happy our child is disabled'. Of course it's only my view, but I believe they mean 'We're happy to have a child, and we'll deal with the problems.'
Just go for the termination and try again, or adopt. Save yourself and your future child decades of incredibly hard work for no reason. IF you already have a disabled person in your family, of course you love them and I'd not expect anything to change, but when given the choice between disabled or not, I can't imagine choosing to inflict that on an unborn child.
Also, worldwide, no-one gets to give birth to more than one child in their home country while there's kids in orphanages, you want a child, go get one. If you're that desperate for the pain of childbirth, get to the orphanage, show an abandoned child a lifetime of love, and I'll give you a free kick in the clacker as some compensation for not going thru childbirth again.
Welfare, I'm more than happy to see a sizable chunk of my taxes go to protecting the weaker members of society, and if you're against this, you're the very reason we need it.
At present fraud on disability allowance is estimated at 0.5%, of a total cost of DLA to the UK of 2 billion. By my maths, that's 100 million in fraud (less than is lost to human error), yet the government are paying ATOS the same 100 million each year to test those least able to defend themselves, and failing in 70% of cases, their rejections being overturned.
Putting all that aside, spending 100 million to save part of 100 million is fucking retarded.
I'll forever happily pay a little extra tax to allow cheats to live frugally on welfare if it means we're not fucking over the weakest people.
The new rules on Tax on charitable donations, while I'm against it because I don't believe for a moment George Osbourne is doing it for any reason than it will lead to the deaths of sick kids and the elderly and infirm, and that makes him visibly tumescent, I'd be for it from someone who was looking to cut the loopholes allowing churches and private schools to register as charities.
Lastly, I believe socialism is a good thing, and I believe mild socialism is not actually the exact same thing as extremist communism.
Oh, and I think Michael McIntyre AND Stewart Lee are funny.

Hate crimes exist not because the victim is special for being some minority but because if I kill a black guy by lynching i'm not only targeting that one guy, i'm sending a message to EVERY black guy that you're not welcome and I have the right of it because I can string up some innocent black guy and get away with it. The law is there because hate crimes don't target an individual but his entire community. They're absolutely necessary.Drudgelmir said:
Relax, I meant by no means that dealing with crimes against minorities is not important. And I said nothing about hate crime laws.Scorpid said:
My issue is people being bullied because of something they can't change and this applies in every case including race, sex, nationality, age, height etc. When it targets a community I accept that is bad, but I meant individuals. Sorry if there was any misunderstanding.
Not being sexist, but I've not found one female comedian that I've found even remotely funny. In all the sitcoms I've watched, it's never been the females that have made me laugh. Are women just incapable of comedy? I'm genuinely asking this.
If I kill a black guy and there is no way for the government prove that it was racially motivated, lets say fit of rage over a bar fight, I won't get a harsher sentence for the fact he was black. Also bulling has been charged as a hate crime for the same reason, but not nearly as often.
-Dr. Who is a mediocre show at best and fucking terrible at worst.
-There should be few limits on what people can own in regards to firearms.
-After spending some years growing up near a native reserve in Canada, I really can't bring myself to give a fuck about what happens to them.
-I think Transgenderism is not an "acceptable lifestyle choice", but a mental illness and should be treated as such.
-Open doors immigration is a fucking retarded policy and immigrants who commit serious crimes should be deported.
-Concerts suck.
-I'm more entitled to my money than other people. Not unpopular, but other people seem to think different.

Autism is a terrible thing to have or live with and anyone who praises the disorder as a good thing or even an evolution of humanity is most likely misguided or off in the head.
I do not care about any savants it may come with, but I have been around people with aspergers long enough to know that they are pretty much living a very miserable existence as I had to be around these types of people for years and I wish I could have those years back to be honest.
I mean they have to grow up pretty much being the most unlikable people on the planet due to their lack of ability to get out of their shell if things they like and constantly having this bizarre superiority complex as there is no one more of a douche than an aspie. I bet they feel like they can't say anything right and deep inside have low self confidence as a consequence as this, but at this point sympathy from me for them is near-impossible for me because rarely do they ever actually try to fix their problems and only seem to beat themselves up over their problems.
How is this in anyways evolution? If this is than humanity is going to have some serious issues down the road because autism pretty much gips off one of the most important aspects of people, the expression of ideas and cooperation to make great things. Autistics rarely cooperate and often keep to themselves or are stone headed to the point where they shut out anyone with new ideas or different ideas just because "they don't like them" and not giving any better reason than that while often expressing themselves in a very poor fashion and never improving on it.

I agree the majority of female comedians are awful, Bridesmaids anyone? there are some that I like, Jessica Stevenson wrote Spaced and shappi khorsandi and sarah millican can be quite funny.Relish in Chaos said:

I hate Elitists. And not just PC Elitist, but Console Idiots. Y'know, those people who go along the lines of "PC IS SO MUCH BETTAR!1! I MEEN LUK AT THE GRAFFIXX AND MODZZ!!! CONSOLES R FOR RETARDS!!1!", and those people who go along the lines of "ECKS-BAWKS/PS3/WII FTW LOLOL, UR (Rivaling Console) SUX!1 AND DONT GET ME STARTED ON PC!!". I play both and they are both very fun. Consoles are no better or worse than PC than Chocolate is to Vanilla.

Prepare to flame me, but here are my opinions:
I believe anyone who is mentally retarded (Brain dead, people with downs syndrome, fundamentalists) should be put down, not because of there disability but because unless they become the next Albert Einstein, they contribute nothing to society. They are a waste of time and money both for our education system and the people who take care of them. Except for autism, I have autism and can complete in 5 hours what takes people 5 days. The human race needs this trait
I am against the death penalty: I believe instead that death row prisoners should be given life sentences and EXPERIMENTED on. Since they are not leaving anyway, imagine how many diseases and disabilities we can cure with experimentation. You are probably thinking "Dude that's inhumane." or "They have rights too!", No they don't: They forfeited those rights the instant they committed the life sentence crime.
I believe anyone who willfully denies scientific evidence and logic in favor of religion should be exported to some far off prisoner colony. I have my own beliefs of an afterlife, but the difference between me and religious people is I keep my beliefs to MYSELF.
I believe that there should be a law restricting the stupid and religious from reproducing. Society and the human race in general have no need for the willfully ignorant and the stupid.
Go ahead, hit me with your best shot

There are alot of asshole atheists and alot of asshole theists, ive probably called more atheists dicks than theists because while theist propagators come across as condecending with their trying to save me atleast it comes fron the right place (most of the time), reddits atheism page is a fine example of know it all arsehole circle jerking each other.hulksmashley said:
I think THE defining characteristic of atheism is the ability to say i dont know and be ignorant and have the ability to change your views. Whats the point in saying im sceptical if you are unwilling to turn that inward and critically assess your beliefs and end up being more ignorant and fundamentalist than those damn theists you despise
What happened before or during the big bang? i dont know.
How did life start? I dont know ect
But religion rubs me the wrong way because it makes a virtue out of this ignorance and calls it faith and then exploits people by taking their wealth and forcing them to submit to an authority that shouldn't exist.
Also theism and science dont collide, but scriptures proclaiming knowledge that conflicts definitely do.
OT: I think wage labour is a mechanism designed to keep the poor, poor while increasing the wealth of the rich.
I think Noam Chomsky is a genius and is correct on political matters 99% of the time
Ron Paul sucks, deal with it
I don't hate right libertarians (only controversial to those on the left). Who knows. Archanocapitalism might work, but i can never see it being implemented without it being abused.
If you describe yourself as a democrat or a republican or a conservative or labor ect then you are an idiot.
Scotland should be independent.

I believe that there is not a divine law that says lavatory seat must always be down. I believe that if sometimes I have to lift it up it will not kill you to sometimes have to put it back down again.

I don't think EA are the most evil company in the world, in the grand scale of things they aren't that bad.
I just don't enjoy PC games sitting at a desk is too much like work, and I don't really like strategy or hardcore fps games either so there isn't much I can't just do on console on my massive bean bag of win...
oh and i really liked dragon age 2, never played the first \o/
