"Hello. Do tu know who I am? Of course tu don't. I'm a nobody. I'd tell tu my name, but tu don't care. I'm just lonely. Nobody cares about me. Nobody cares what I think. People treat me like dirt. My opinion doesn't matter. Nothing about me matters. I try to say something, but nobody listens. They don't even try. I hate my life. I've never had a friend. I never even had a chance to make a friend. You're probably feeling sorry for me right now. But if tu knew me, tu wouldn't care anymore. I hate tu all. My entire life is pointless and sad. It's like I'm not even there. I never get to...

Note: It's kind of late at night so this is a bit rushed & disorganized (especially regarding the points about Depp, Rowling, and DeLisle) so if anyone needs any clarification o más context o would like to hear más in depth about my personal feelings on each case, feel free to ask.

So this is inspired por a reciente experience that I had with cancelar culture o an attempt at it. I have always been against cancelar culture mostly because I've had several bad experiences with it over stuff that was blown way out of proportion. It was used as a humiliation tactic and a means to try to kick me...

As of late, I've noticed several picks asking if it's murder if a crime is committed without mens rea. In all fairness, I'm paraphrasing, because none of these picks even mentions the words "mens rea" but the concept is the same.

For example, one pick asks if a priest should be convicted if he performed an exorcism which resulted in the link For that, I answered yes-- the priest should be convicted, o at least charged with manslaughter-- but not murder. Similarly, there are link seperate link concerning the legalities of a burglar/trespasser getting shot and killed on someone else's property....

On and off for the past several years, I've been working on a bunch of artículos here on Fanpop: interviews (so many interviews....), comic articles, reviews, and various "What is..." explanatory articles. One of the ones on the back burner has been the "What is Debate?" article, and since I haven't finished that, I have to summarize some basic points about debate:

1) debate is all about using arguments to support a position, thesis o statement.
2) debate requires opposition: at least two sides arguing the truth o fallacy of the thesis.
3) debate requires an audience to judge the effectiveness...

I'd like to start por saying that this is just my personal opinion as to what a SJW is. I've come to notice that I have used SJW quite a bit on this spot and a few people don't know exactly what I mean por that. So I kind of thought it'd be useful to make this articulo explaining exactly what I mean when I use the term social justice warrior.
Before anything else; I intend no offense to anyone at all with this article. I don't hate social justice (not por any means), I think social justice is awesome. What I don't like is what some people turned the movement into.

First and foremost when I use SJW...

My friend, an evolutionist, and I, a Christian, always amor to spend a few moments debating with each other about evolution, the "Big Bang" theory, and religion (mostly God).

November 7, 2008, he and I started at it again on Msn. He actually put my skills to the test, as neither of us have had no high school o college education on religion (so far), but I have gone to Church weekly, and will hopefully continue doing so. My friend, is frankly just extremely smart (I honestly can't elaborate on that....

I believe in debate, discussion, and discourse. I believe in listening. I believe in multiple sides to every issue. I believe everyone is worth listening to. I believe there can be fault on "all sides," and that we can all be guilty of misunderstanding each other.

I do not extend these courtesies to racists.

Ideas are dangerous. They are wonderful and they are disastrous. They can be used and misused as weapons o agents of peace. But when tu are met with a truly deadly weapon, giving it the benefit of the doubt and letting it do its thing will get tu and many others killed.

When it comes to...

link, the only feedback I received revolved around definitions of racism. Sure, the concept of reverse racism was partially what the articulo was about, but it was also about what problems nonwhites have that whites don't face. It was also a lista of grievances that need to be fixed. Those points were completely ignored.

When tu say that reverse racism doesn't exist, white people completely ignore the problems you're saying nonwhites face and the changes tu want to make to fight them. Instead, they do nothing constructive and just argue on behalf of whites. We - people on both sides of the debate...
