  2. @snowcone or at least, I feel based on your language that you dismiss my argument as unrealistic because you're throwing the "X will always happen" defense

    • @snowcone another thing too, and here's an analogy I hope you enjoy, but I shouldn't need to be expected to wear a bulletproof vest when I walk outside. If I agree that I have the burden of responsibility to reduce my own risk as a victim, and it's not the responsibility of others to *not* shoot me, then I should always wear a vest since I should expect that people will always try and shoot me no matter the law or how much society discourages murder.

    • @snowcone actually "therefore prepare for x" was your claim (on a side note) so my phrasing was still correct. I'm not sure whose position it is that the rape statistic will never change, or who decided it was the default position (because anyone can call their own position the "default position") but if it's a claim they have to prove it. I dont have to disprove it wont change, if they say it wont change they have to show why.

    • @snowcone You may not be directly ver batum (sp?) saying it's not people's responsibility to follow the law, but you've been giving me rebuttal after rebuttal every time I try to say or suggest that it is the responsibility of each person not to commit crime. Your general suggestion which can be inferred from your responses, is, "it's not going away, so the responsibility lies with potential victims." At the very least, even if you are not trying to say that, since we are discussing a problem your end thus far seems to be a resignation to the risk-reduction solution. solution is a misnomer of course, because as long as individuals only try to reduce the risk, of course said acts of violence will always occur. There's a difference in saying something automatic will always occur (like gravity) and something involving a decision will always occur. maybe you already do, but you seem dismissive of any argument I make that we should actually solve problems and not treat symptoms.

  3. I'm genuinely sorry. Not for making the joke, because personally I think that one was pretty tame in comparison to some other stuff I've joked about. I did not know, however, that it would rile you up like that, and for that I do apologize.

    • Star Trek is going to be dramatically different from other shows/movies. In MOST bullcrap, the heroes are rewarded or celebrated for constantly taking leaps of faith and in general just giving up on reason because belief is supposedly empowering (aka Star Wars, and most american films). In Trek, the heroes are generally skeptics, and their skepticism and dedication to their moral and civic duties leads them to solve their problems.

    • @snowcone I hate how in spooks-are-real stories, the skeptics are made to be either idiots or buttwipes. Then they act even dumber when they're forced to acknowledge the supernatural. In real life, a true skeptic would be intrigued by honest physical evidence of the supernatural
