Folks Online Are Losing Their Patience Explaining These 40 Things Over And Over Again

Yup. I know someone who thinks science is a religion or a cult. Tried asking if they were thinking scientology, the cult organization. Nope, just science. They think science is all unproven theories and no scientific facts are evident, but believe everything in the bible is factual and written by god. I would rather wash dishes than get into that conversation again.

Also, science is not a opinion, it's a collection of conclusions based on observations and measurements within a controlled system.

Let me quote you what a student said in my class last week while reviewing evolution. "I don't believe it, it's too hard to understand." Killing me. (Plus, I don't think evolution is really that hard to understand...may he never see quantum mechanics.)

But I did my research! There was a meme on fb that said science was wrong. I'm gonna go ahead and believe that, it's more credible.

The more ignorant someone is about a science topic the more they will pretend to know.

I noticed it most often gets misused by people who very clearly absolutely do not want YOU to have freedom of speech - just them. It's just another bullying tactic to try and shame you into shutting up and not arguing with them.

Freedom of Speech is the right to criticise your Government without fear of repercussions. It isn't the right to broadcast your views about anything to everyone.

My favorite are the people who love to spew racist, sexist, homo, and trans phobic nonsense and when you judge them, they whine about freedom of speech but they insist anything actually positive, and empathetic is “shoved down their throat” and “woke” (like it’s a bad thing)

Freedom of speech is just that only. You have the ability to speak, but be wise where, when and topic.

Looking at you Alex Jones!

When I suffered with depression the best way I could describe it was the absence of emotion. Nothing seemed to trigger any kind of emotion. Therapy & Mindfulness worked far better for me than antidepressants. For fellow suffers, I wish you well.

Interestingly enough it wasn't until after I had mostly recovered from a long bout of depression that I started experiencing periods of sadness. When I was depressed I felt either angry or nothing at all. Being sad every now and then is infinitely preferable because it means feeling something, which means I care enough about life to have feelings again.

I feel you. I have chronic depression since more then a decade.

I honestly did not understand this until I lived with my sister. She has major depressive episodes that kind of look like what I thought depression was, but mostly she just doesn't enjoy a lot of things most of the time.

Ugh. Literally had this conversation with my mother 4 hours ago. She was telling me about a conversation she had and this woman's daughter has many of the same issues as I do. My said I should go to this chicks Dr. That she added fish oil to her diet and is perfectly healthy now. No mom. I have chemical imbalances in my head. I'm 47 years old, I've tried adding it to my regime 3 times at the suggestion of my doctors over the years. It was for other reasons but it certainly didn't cure my mental illness or fibromyalgia. It didn't even lower my cholesterol.

Alone is not lonely.

Thiss...Back in highschool teachers would always ask my parents if I were okay. I was just minding my own business people!!!! And kids were pretty mean. Just leave me alone.

Me too. Humans can be way too loud

I’m not an introvert, I’m an ambivert but it irks me a lot when people assume people who are alone are sad. My classmate today said that if she were running the school then she would “fix the introvert problem “ and make everyone talk more

The few friends I have are always like "don't you want more friends?? Do you not feel lonely?? Don't you wanna go out and do stuff with others??". Just because others want that doesn't mean I want it, I'm having a great time alone!

Also, just because someone is poor doesn't mean they have to be given rotten, tainted food. People who say "beggers can't be choosers" are the same people who turn their noses up at the poor and throw them garbage then tell the poor person they're ungrateful. Poor people do have and deserve lots of choice and dignity.

Just because someone is poor, like the homeless, doesn't mean they are a drug addict or mentally ill either.

The US government (corrupt) has created most of the situations in Amerika: The War on drugs, The War on Poverty, The Welfare State, and the list goes on. In ALL cases, it's to make them more $$$ and keep people under control

The dreadful thing is that no one needs to be hungry or homeless or be without medical treatment. There are enough resources to go around.

The amount of money that a person owns does not define someone's character.
