Independent thinker valuing discussions grounded in reason, not emotions.

I say unpopular things but never something I know to be untrue. Always open to hear good-faith counter arguments. My goal is to engage in dialogue that seeks truth rather than scoring points.

  • Wouldn't it also be correct to say that on Lemmy, Trump and Elon are also almost universally hated too? That's why it's so confusing that I mostly see it directed at them when I feel like it should be more towards Putin.

  • Israel caused more death and suffering than Russia

    Irrelevant and not true.

    As of 5 November 2024, over 45,000 people (43,391 Palestinian[1] and 1,706 Israeli)[19] have been reported killed in the Israel–Hamas war

    Russia’s military casualties, the officials said, are approaching 300,000. The number includes as many as 120,000 deaths and 170,000 to 180,000 injured troops. The Russian numbers dwarf the Ukrainian figures, which the officials put at close to 70,000 killed and 100,000 to 120,000 wounded.

    And that doesn't even include civilians.

  • I follow plenty of news communities as well as Ukraine and NoCredibleDefence communities but I still rarely see comments like that. Not never but it seems way disproportionate compared to what I see of these right-wing political figures.

  • any facts or evidence can be dismissed with a thought terminating cliche

    Not in any way exclusive tactic to Trump supporters though. It's done by most extremists on the left and right.
