  • He doesn't try to prevent crime, he simply delights in the sadistic act of beating up criminals, which is ironically a crime.

    He instantly judges people based on which side of the law they stand on, but when he is declared a criminal himself, he doesn't even attempt to reflect on it. He just keeps punching.

    When his own friend is revealed to be a rapist, murderer and war criminal(?), he has no interest ["I'm not concerned with speculating on the moral lapses of men who died in their country’s service"], because he doesn't actually care about crime, he just uses 'fighting crime' as an excuse for his real passion, beating up those he considers undesirables.

    He's a hypocrite (and a fascist).

  • It's the same story with tons of films: Taxi Driver, Joker, The Boys, Watchmen. They get universal praise from the left and right.

    The Left: "This insightful satire shows the protagonist's slow descent from obsession and inceldom into terrorism and psychopathy. It serves as a stark reminder of how these thought patterns are the beginnings of a societal tragedy."

    The Right: "I fucking love this guy. He just shoots the people he doesn't like. Based. Highly recommended."

  • Often antiperspirants create a cycle of dependency. They kill off some of the benign bacteria and favour the ones that produce strong body odour, so if you stop using them you stink.

    I grew up in a region where no-one used antiperspirant or deodorant. Nobody smelt bad. People have a smell, but its not strong.

    When I moved to the city and smelt post-basketball teenage BO, it was so bad.

    I dont use antipersperant. I have asked many people if I smell, all agree I dont.

  • My favourite is the belief that goose-necked barnacles grew into geese.

    The idea was started by the Norman scholar Giraldus Cambrensis in the 12th century when he visited Ireland, and was very popular because it meant that the monks who were required to fast and eat only fish during Lent could eat geese. Technically if they lived part of their life underwater, they must be fish.

  • Raised by Australian hippies, they were all just as hardworking as the next person, just they worked on growing crops and landcare.

    As they grew older, a lot dropped their ideology and cashed in on the Boomer property boom, but I am not convinced anyone else could have said no to that.

    They are people like any other, except they smoke more weed and treat nature with a bit more respect.

    8/10 would childhood again.

  • From the article: "Maybe people mean that no inductive argument will conclusively, indubitably prove a negative proposition beyond all shadow of a doubt."

    While you are correct, its fair to assume that the above is what is meant here.
