RFK went on record many times for months, years, talking about the carcinogenic effects of red 5, among other thing
“No hes a delulu conspiracy theorist with brain worms”
FDA bans red 5 because of carcinogenic effects 5 days before inauguration
Not trying to devolve to politics, thats just the most recent conspiracy theory debunked off the top of my head.
A simple test anyone can do to understand if what they believe is BS or not is to just ask 'is there any information or facts I could be told/learn that would change my belief?' If the answer is no, then chances are your beliefs aren't grounded in any actual facts to begin with.
This goes both ways though. Youve been on the video games thread crying about “conspiracy” almost as much as Viciouss, and you got cooked plenty of times trying to handwave anything away as “das a conspiracy” even after having supporting evidence telling otherwise.

Sometimes you have to take a moment and go “that makes no *** sense”
Ie:
Before WWEs debut on Netflix, HHH said Raw wont have a hard 3 hour timeslot and runtime can be variable
Last week a new wrestler, who left AEW for WWE, debuted for the company.
After the show, people put out reports that management was unhappy with him for going over their timeslot.
Most people automatically dismissed it as *** because the report that RAW will have variable runtimes is still fresh in their minds, and the show ended 30 minutes early.
5 days later: “that report was ***, it was made up”. Because it made no sense.
Thats like taking endgame advice from Eiryl. Hes never set foot in Sortie, Gaol, the one time he entered Sheol A he got absolutely bodied to the point he put out a huge rant about how difficult sheol A was. It makes no sense to take endgame advice from Eiryl.

I used conspiracy as a slight against Radial because of his opinions about SE, Yoshi P, etc. It was meant as hyperbole, and I seem to remember using a tin foil hat meme picture at some point too. I am trying to remove personal attacks in conversations with people I disagree with, but it is not always easy and sometimes I read too much into posts and make assumptions. So for those occasions I can only apologize.
Now its my turn to raise a concern, namely targeted advertising on Twitch based on previous Amazon purchases. In my opinion, this should not be allowed without an opt-in, but apparently it works in reverse and you need to visit 3rd party sites to opt out of such advertising. It was more effort than I was willing to put in, so I just deleted my Twitch account. No big loss, I never created content and didn't chat much. Since we were talking about choosing what information you share on the internet the other day, I thought someone might be interested in this.

Amazon owns twitch, so they probably use the same opt-in. Its probably in the fine print somewhere that it applies to any Amazon owned subsidiary.

If it's a slack channel for work or your twitter account, then obviously it's different but for a gaming forum or on reddit and you're still scared to say what you think? Why even bother wasting your time writing things out at all.
Am I scared to say what I think? No, um. Somestime, things I don't know what to say the same reason as I was refusing to join a vc party... Like music. I wouldn't feel like experience audism (not autism) in my life. And I am slow at responding.
You see, I have stopped posting on the official forum a long time ago. And you still come to FFXIAH to cry about my opinions here? I am not sure how I baited you.
This is my nature of writing.
I do read your posts. Most of time, it seems every time you write large paragraphs, there are few points in your writing that people would find to disagree.

The idea of short videos is interesting, but the damage it did far outweight its value
But the damage on society is already done. Many generation will be necessary to get rid of the cultural distortion it brought iwth it

Yes! Until I realize Asura made everyone rich, corruption, inflation, and prices go up on the ah. Eh, no. Not a good idea.

I will cut the tax for poor working class so they can be more rich! :D
The inflation will go down with less tax :)

Hopefully, that's true. Which is why they are going to cut the government's spending. Then, we can live better. Perhaps!
So I'd vote for you!

Then we have a different opinion on what "rich" means then ;)

How could your definition of rich differ from mine in the sentence used?
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/rich
If its not about wealth, then what is it?
If it is about wealth, and heres what socialists dont understand, you cant make everyone a millionaire and expect nothing to change. If everyone is a millionare, then being a millionaire means ***. You can literally see the impact of inflation in FFXI's video game world:
RMT generate billions of gil, cost of everything goes up because any jerkoff is sitting on a bunch of gil.
SE bans a shitton of RMT removing a bunch of gil from the economy, and the cost of everything goes down because people start being more careful with their gil because theres less to go around.
"but thats just a game"
Look at the real world in the last 10-15 years. Govt gives massive raises to minimum wage in USA and Canada, prints out a shitton of money, and now a Big Mac trio costs $20.
By Zehira 2025-01-19 12:37:07
This is so rich!
Yeah, if we all have a lot of money then a Big Mac price would be $149,999.98. Doesn't make any difference much.

If Im elected, I promise that everyone will have the right to do paws massages on me assured.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
