Wow.

Agree so hard about forced socialization. My work life and my social life should be two very separate things.

After I had a breakthrough LSD experience it was immediately obvious to me why it was banned. If you let everybody do it there would be a revolution.

No one on mushrooms fits this delusional strawman dude.

Yes. I absolutely hate when I want to load an article on my iPhone and it loads AMP. I remove that part of the URL to read the original source most of the time.

"FEE's mission is to inspire, educate, and connect future leaders with the economic, ethical, and legal principles of a free society.

These principles include: individual liberty, free-market economics, entrepreneurship, private property, high moral character, and limited government."

This site is propaganda. Flagging this article.

There has never existed a "free market" in the libertarian ideal sense; markets are only able to exist under the system of a government.

I can post whatever I like. I disagree that my comments are "unsubstantive" (is that even a word?). I'm not forcing you to read them.

Nope.

Yep. Ding ding ding.

This reads like red pill cult brainwashing.

For environmental reasons: No.

Maybe people need something like it to snap out of what we're doing to the planet. The current system is anything but normal.

Well it's a good thing tons of research on the matter was once done in the past, before the reactionary US Government stuck it on schedule 1. Maybe you should educate yourself before you spread more fear-mongering nonsense. LSD doesn't ruin anyone's life.

you sound like that rick and morty copypasta. embarrassing.

This was originally posted elsewhere. Reddit sucks.

Why do people on twitter do these long text "threads" for writeups?

Uhh Yeah Dude

Reddit is so astroturfed now it's not even funny.

Seriously?

But there is absolutely no evidence that saturated fat causes any of the diseases of civilization. Why should people limit their intake of it?

Did early hunter-gatherer populations count calories? I don't think they did and I don't think counting calories is necessary or sufficient for health. If you eat real food (such as... animal fats) you will naturally become satiated enough and know when it's time to stop.

If there was universal integrity across the board re: food and nutrition companies like Coca-Cola would simply cease to exist.

You're right it's not a good argument. A better argument would be taking a look at how long humans have been afflicted by things like heart disease, diabetes, and different types of cancer. I'll give you a hint, they're relatively recent developments in the history of our species.

RE: Dying by 40, how much of that data takes into account infant deaths and things like clean running water? I don't think early humans were dying from "artery clogging saturated fat" and if that was the case, wouldn't we have generally evolved not to eat things that killed us?

The idea that saturated fat is bad for you is a complete joke and it's frankly embarrassing that so many smart people are still duped by it. Human beings have been hunting and eating animals (mostly ruminants, which are predominantly GASP saturated fat) for hundreds of thousands of years, if not longer. Yet the rates we see heart disease, cancer, diabetes (so-called diseases of civilization) have never been more prevalent than in recent years. Doesn't that suggest the cause is something other than unjustly vilified saturated fat?

Focusing on learning more about tech in general, dedicating myself to some coding projects (right now I'm looking at Crafting Interpreters - http://www.craftinginterpreters.com/introduction.html), getting back into music and being more social overall.
