Can't really touch weed anymore, it's the only drug I lose control of every time and then it interferes with my life. I also don't know anyone in my circle who likes their daily habit of smoking, except for those where it really helps medicinally.

FUCK! I switched from spotify to Tidal... Any other paid app you can recommend that isn't supporting a genocide and generally less shitty to artists, and like everyone?

EDIT: Qobuz seems to be recommended, gonna have a look... or maybe do some light sailing... really don't want to go back to doing fucking interviews for what.cd (now-defunct) and spend hours organising shit.

Psychopathy. Movies, sensational articles, pop-culture, etc. give a completely distorted view of the disorder and its place in the world.

  • There are primary and secondary psychopaths. Primary being that it is genetic, secondary that is developed. So yes, in a way you can be born "evil" (of course the problem is that some definitions of evil don't make sense).
  • We don't want to judge people for things they can't change about themselves. Well here you have somebody who has about zero empathy, no feelings of guilt, remorse, or shame, by definition, and they were born that way (as primary psychopath). The emotional palette is pretty bleak.
  • To add more relevance, this along with other Dark Triad traits is very prevalent in the most powerful people.
  • There is progress, but no real standardised lasting treatment yet, though there are cases like this: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-it-possible-to-treat-psychopathy-before-it-starts/?rdt_cid=5647051055037794503
  • Psychopathy isn't in any manual to be diagnosed with. Instead people get diagnosed with AsPD (Antisocial personality disorder). 2/3 of AsPD don't qualify as Psychopaths. There is interesting history about why this is. It's willful.
  • The Hare checklist is an acceptable way to test for signs of psychopathy. But he specifically said it should not be used to justify the death penalty, which they do anyway. People sue about it, but they don't even get heard.

For someone who knows about nothing about psychopaths and hasn't interacted with one, it is literally unfathomable how cruel they can be without blinking an eye. Which is why it's so important for psychologists etc. to have a file of facts about them, at the least, to figure out what's true and what not, as they generally don't care about lying or manipulating people for their own gain and have had to do that most of their lives.

So yeah, take a fucked up justice system, shitty social cohesion and declining resources in health and the disorder causes so much trouble for everyone. Sensationalism only makes it worse.

Yes, OP is completely reasonable and we should listen to them.

I got chronic back/joint/muscle issues for 15 years. I feel advice like this is only semi-useful. Every body is different, and you gotta use a holistic approach to the whole system to really fix/maintain shit. Short harmstrings and a weak core alone can cause this. And you can work your pecs all you want, it will come back if you don't work on your core too.

The transition in Nazi Germany from shooting to gassing happened partly because of the effect it has on the psyche of the perpetrators.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einsatzgruppen

"The historian Christian Ingrao notes an attempt was made to make the shootings a collective act without individual responsibility. Framing the shootings in this way was not psychologically sufficient for every perpetrator to feel absolved of guilt."

This isn't the best evidence, but it shouldn't be too hard to find, if wants to look more deeply into it.

Zionists are actually antisemitic. Calling people who criticize Israel for its genocide and apartheid antisemitic implies that it's a jewish thing to commit genocide and apartheid, which is incredibly hateful.

Also this isn't just about the israeli goverment. The protests you see are about the hostages, not about the inhumanity. Protests for solidarity with palestine are banned. There are recent polls that showed ~75% of israelis think "there are no innocent palestinians". The beaches and restaurants are buzzing over there. It's really not that hard to see from just about any angle, how most israelis don't give a shit at all.
