I hate motorbikes and big dogs. Motorbikes because the engine is too noisy. Big dogs because are dangerous (and kill people) and they bark too much.

I really like pokemon scarlet and violet. I think they're my favorite Pokemon games ever.

Human life begins at some point after conception but before birth. Therefore, there comes a point in pregnancy at which abortion ends a human life.
I don't think most people disagree with this. I think my country's law draws the line at 3 months for general abortions without health reasons. Other countries do have it similar. Only the weird authoritarian countries are banning it. And I don't know of any country that loosens the rules.

I think Vim bindings are dumb and get in the way. I will never understand the appeal of modal editing. Emacs was always the superior program since it was released by Richard Stallman in 1985.

The labor theory of value is correct and needs to be folded into modern economics.

If you're getting upvotes in this thread you're a lemming that believes what everyone else does and you only allow yourself to consider socially acceptable ideas. Your beliefs are based on social proof, not introspection or critical thinking.
Another one: about 50% of the population are destined to be poor wagies and there's nothing you can do to help them.

It feels like as soon as Biden got into office a lot of people on the left threw their BLM signs in the garbage and stopped caring. Now I'm starting to see more and more on the left detach themselves from people of color and go right back to the white worship they were doing before. Every single time a person of color is now a lead in anything there's just nothing but endless controversy and both conservatives and liberals just complain
But put a white person in a lead? Nothing but sunshine and "we're starting to heal" nonsense
Really sick of it now, and it's completely soured me on wanting to vote again

The US left wing has a lot of great ideas and some really really terrible ones that are completely out of the mainstream.
That's probably specific enough, right?
