I don’t know how to change it in Sync :(

30 btw

Quite the theory you’ve got there.

I’m so sorry.

What’s your favorite?

The US wishes it could be as brazen as China is. Give it time.

I was diagnosed “gifted” in grade school, and those were the absolute worst years of my life. I’m still recovering from how much psychological and emotional damage I took on from that time. Emotional intelligence is real, and it should not be slept on.

I’m working on a dnd campaign where a rogue AI is the BBEG, and this just provided me with so much valuable sauce. Thanks!

I used the word philosophy, but yes. I think that’s a more appropriate word than religion/cult.

I like your facts.

Tbh it’s this fact that makes me glad I’ve done nothing to enter the public consciousness. I’d rather not be remembered for my countless mistakes and bad takes.

And so the cycle continues.

Wow what the fuck

That’s fair. I chose violence.

I don’t think you have a strong enough concept of large numbers to be able to hold a respectable opinion here.

I like to think consciousness is just a higher self that creates a projection that we understand to be our “self”. The projection and its source are both representations of the same self, making my thoughts a product of my self. Or in other words, I can claim to be the author of my own thoughts.

It sounds like an anecdotal experience with a single person has shaped your opinion on millions of people you have yet to encounter into a brutally negative one. Your flags are much redder than you may realize.

That was my reaction as well.

“I do have voices in my head. They’re called thoughts, and I highly recommend the experience.”

I think the hate comes from an overall immaturity (I don’t mean this as an insult) in the audience. Forrest Gump is a really solid family movie because its characters are thoughtful and offer many things for a viewer to latch onto. As a child, I remember not really caring for Jenny’s behavior. It didn’t make sense to me, I hadn’t yet picked up on the sexual abuse from her father, her scenes were too sporadic for me to keep up with her character arc enough to care, etc. But I adored Forrest and loved watching him stumble his way into success. That was 20 years ago, and I’ve come to appreciate Jenny’s character for how much depth she holds. When I rewatch the movie, it’s because her story hits an emotional resonance with me. All that’s changed for me is I’ve learned to care more about a life like hers.

I think it takes a certain amount of emotional intelligence to appreciate her character, and not everyone is there.
