Which means you're already doing better than most. My only issue is the idea of having to work till your at least 59 to start enjoying your money. Bitch my knees and back will be dust by then lol
I knew from having my Econ class that investing in your 401k earlier in life would make it better. Can't say I'm smart or whatever but I've listened a little bit.

"Best time to invest is now. 2nd best was yesterday." Earlier the better. You can't touch your 401k penalty free until your 59.5 years old, so the longer you have it the better your captial.

True, true. Very true. It's a *Nest Egg* that's untouchable, for the meantime. And I've been lazy enough to not invest into anything else. How stupid I am. Definitely going to need to look into things.

Some personal general rules of mine when it comes to investing:

1) Only invest what you're willing to lose
2) Think long term with safer investments. The safer it is, the less you have to think about it(401ks invests your money in safe index funds over the long term for example)
3) Short term or more risky investments is only for those who good cash flow
4) Stock prices going down happens everyday and is completely normal
5) Stock price declines are an opportunity to accumulate more shares at a discount
6) Dont chase penny stocks
7) Fuck financial influencers. Most are just trying to create hype to increase their own captial.
 
Yes precisely. The point was to show that Dawkins was not an expert on moral issues concerning abortion and had therefore no reason to say such problematic things. This was also a way to point out that Dawkins, his friend of the new atheism movement and their follower are actually going toward the pass of scientism, which is closer to cultism than real science and that their words should therefore be taken with a grain of salt
Define scientism.

I didnt quote dawkins on moral issues. I quoted him on science.

And the statement stands regardless. Attacking the character instead of the argument is still a fallacy. And your attack of his character was also fallacious.

This morning I heard John Walsh talk about something we were talking about yesterday, it doesn't give a separate statistic for firearms. He was talking about how Biden is lying about the crime going down and Biden only cherry-picked places that had huge crime spikes that slightly lowered. He said Baltimore's either crime rate or murder rate don't remember which has gone up 700%.

Anyway back to the point I was making he said: The top 6 he didn't name but said they were in Mexico. Then the next 4 are here. Saint Louis, Baltimore, New Orleans & Chicago. I did try to fact-check these numbers because I do everything, despite me trusting John Walsh with these numbers since this has been his thing since his boys were murdered. My fact check concluded no one can agree on which ones they are but almost all of them list Mexico & US somewhere to varying degrees.

Defund the police was the dumbest movement created of all time.
 
Guys like Jordon Peteroson, Matt Walsh, Ben Shepiro and even Andrew Tate got an audience in the first place because of the crazy hypocrisy of the left
The old narrative of confusionnist: Blaming the left for the radicalization of the far right and completely ignoring the impact liberal/apolitical/confusionnist rethorics have on those people.. You will never learn it seems..

You talk about hypocrisy of the left but not once have you define what was wrong with what me and other in the left are believing in or defending.. Its all about the boogy man of the left, "the woke".. Its never about the responsabilization of guys like you who are literally borrowing rethoric from the far right to blame the left..

He was called "dangerous."
He is.

I think I secretly have oppositional defiance disorder because when someone tells me not to watch someone
Do NOT watch this video:


And you must ABSOLUTELY NOT watch this video either:


I sorta feel like he has good intentions.
He has not.

I also have hope he's a free thinker
He is not.

It's really the only way to profit nowadays, working a 40 hour job isn't going to get you anywhere in life.
Wait, so you don't believe in meritocracy ?


Define scientism.
The vision that science and the scientific method is the only way to render truth about the world ("science" as a hardcore point of view, thus excluding most social sciences).

Its the vision that believe that following the scientific method will be the way to regulate society the best.

This is a depolitization of the practice of sciences and therefore a very dangerous path to follow as it cuts the link between morality and science (this can lead to such things as saying that not aborting babies with down syndrom is immoral because their lives are not valued as worthy of being lived)


I didnt quote dawkins on moral issues. I quoted him on science.
My point is precisely that Dawkins is slowly falling in antiscientifism, which makes his scientific quote slowly unreliable.


Attacking the character instead of the argument is still a fallacy
Not when the point is to denounce the path of the individual. I do not intend to attack his argumentation but specifically the path Dawkins and his overall ideology.

I heard John Walsh
Listening crypto fascists ?

Cool, like this thread needed more far right rethoric...



But this forum is absolutely not favoring toxic rethoric no no no no...

Defund the police was the dumbest movement created of all time.

@Logiko I was posting statistics about crime, how are facts far-right rhetoric? Those cities I said weren't just said by John Walsh or right-wing media. They were pretty standard across all news organizations and statistic pages, just the order they put them changed.

Now, for your reaction to defunding the police movement, even the left has bowed that it was indeed an awful movement. Baltimore, New York, and various other liberal ran places are begging for police to come back because their crime rates are extremely high.

I'm not far right, but the far left requires them.

Unlike the biased fact-checkers of the internet. I do fact check using both sides of the media, including independent media sources and reliable statistic pages. I guess that makes me edgy, that I can't be told what to think.

Cops in USA you think this image is correct ??

I forget, where are you from?

Not once have I ever seen cops in those pictures in full protective gear they have to use when they go into dangerous situations like riots. You will see that type of armor not only here in the US but anytime police officers have to enter a situation where harm to them might be high.

Law enforcement is just like any other group in the world. There is a small percentage of bad apples. No one hates bad cops more than everyday good cops.

The media brainwashed people by choosing what they show.

Here I am saying this as a person who was arrested more by the age of twenty than I care to admit. :few:

We were talking about male suicide and what is appealing to women about men. I saw a quote that reminded me why I always speak up for men and why I understand why all men regardless of race is moving to the extreme right, to fight against the far left that makes them out to be devils. The quote was: The first bunch of flowers most men will ever receive is at their funerals. It's in reference to this song.


Edit: Don't talk bad about Dax, he is my husband, despite him not knowing.

Edit Again: Don't tell Lil Wayne my other husband.

No. Only liberals/democrats.
The left is still demanding to defound and radically reform the police. Be it in USA or in Europe.


I'm not far right
Did not say you were. For me you are a conservative right now.

Meaning that you are exposing yourself to propaganda to check if things are true. Dangerous move.

Everyone can think and say what they want here. If Bob, Herrera or Nameless have proved something, is that everything, even toxic, cryptofascist, transphobic or sexist rethoric is allowed and enabled on this forum. So have a blast. Do what you want.

I'm just here as a reminder that some discourses are not normal. You won't like me.

Law enforcement is just like any other group in the world
No they are not. They are what stands between power and people. Their job is to protect the power's interest and the laws edicted by the power. They are the last line of defense of governments. If police forces falls or turn against government, the power falls.


There is a small percentage of bad apples
No. There is a systemic problem and a high percentage of bad behaviors.

Did you just tell me not to research facts for myself to look at all angles so I can make up my own mind?

I already said I'm independent for the most part which leans conservative. Without a doubt there are systematic problems, I just believe you are wrong about what caused them and who created them.

Imo I saw this meme decided to post here . Polizei looks same here during riots .

"Researching fact for ourself" doesn't mean checking what propagandist and their adversaries are saying. Its checking what researchers, the current state of scientific consensus, data reports and ground actors are saying on the matters.

Exposing yourself to propanda just for the sake of checking "other people's point of view" just put yourself in danger of being radicalized by said propaganda. This is a dangerous move that can only be done effectively if you have the adequat critical thinking training to deconstruct the tools used in the propanda. Like I said previously, this is not something that is accesssible just because you think you can do it.

That's why I say: Careful, this is a dangerous move.

Without a doubt there are systematic problems, I just believe you are wrong about what caused them and who created them.
I'm basing my argumentation on the conclusions of scientific researches and scientific consensus regarding social issues. If you tell me that I'm wrong about the causes behind those systemic problems you are therefore therefore denying the legitimacy of the conclusion of the reasearches on the subject be it historical, sociological or psychological.

You are of course entitled to your opinion, I'm just reminding you what it means in regard to your potential vision of science.

Also, I won't dislike you unless you are a white savior or a race profiteerer.
If you keep saying "conservatist" things and if you stay here, you can expect be to find me in your way quite often. The more conservative things you will say, the more I will target the underlying values of your discourse. I'm therefore predicting the fact that you will see me as a shard in the foot in the near future just like the majority of the """conservative""" and antiwoke posters here.

But I would gladly love to be proven wrong for once.
