Perspective: Disney isn't accurate sweetie

This lady made a post stating that men who commit violent crimes against women aren't the creepy trolls that get labeled as incels.

They are normal men with lots of success with women and a healthy looking life.

Women (and men as well)for some reason have this fairytale idea that the boyfriend is gonna be the knight in shining armor to protect the women from the neckbeard "incel".

That does happen. But you wanna know what's wayyyy more common? The partner of the women being abusive.

Incel based attacks on women are rare. I just find it disingenuous that women whom unfortunately have been treated poorly by their socially well versed boyfriend, come online and tell "incels", that they are lonely because they are abusive towards women and commit creepy acts towards them irl.

Perspective Brutal fact is we are much more lonely in all of life than we think. Even in this sub there’s a hierarchy…….

Brutal fact is we are much more lonely in all of life than we think. Even in this sub, there is a hierarchy…..

The stats may say this and that, but if you go out enough, especially as Gen Z male, you’ll notice just how tall it seems literally everyone is. Idk man. Even in ethnic areas, or some ages older than you, it seems everyone is legit tall. Like 5”10 at very minimum and girls often 5”6ish.

I know yall could say, oh but the brain only notices the tall ones and how we are overthinking it ect, but let’s be very real here, even if it isn’t much self respect out loud. As part of human nature to not want to ever feel at the bottom, you’ll desperately look around to compare yourself and find someone who is your height or shorter, so as to not be and look as that one rock bottom man. In this case, your brain is actively looking for guys your height or shorter, not bypassing them. If you simply can’t find anyone around your height, then bad news, YOU are the smallest guy around and everyone else is looking at you to feel better about themselves…..

Adding to the facts about the stats lol, maybe Gen Z IS slightly shorter after all by like a few cm compared to Gen X and Older Millennials who are confirmed consistently tallest people. Terrible UPF diets, childhood obesity, unrestrained internet access, chronic stress, pollution, hyper competitive social life and cruelty that comes with it, is very likely the culprits for this very slight, almost negligible decrease in adult height. But again it’s very negligible and being under 5”10 as a young man is just not respectable height (not even counting our own absolute cursed heights). And who cares about older generations being taller or shorter or whatever, if you’re young, your competition and social and dating pool is other young people after all. Over when your height is so bad, some cringemaxxed 40 year old Andrew Tate ass wannabe who actually has the height you need, has a higher chance of bedding your age group or looks match.

Maybe the guys our heights are most likely shut ins and stay tf away from outside world unless they absolutely have to be and can you blame them? But if you do choose to go outside, your main social hubs (you can’t really use dating apps or online meet-ups, you simply don’t have the height or likely face/neurotypical stats to do so), are the usual place that only tall, handsome, well built young people would dare to constantly populate. Bars, nightclubs, sports clubs, friend group meet ups, even stuff that we already tend to go to like gym or therapy or whatever lmao still have such young privileged fuckers all over.

To add to this…. most of us just don’t even have solidarity in our life circumstances. All the stuff I mentioned, the general vibe isn’t exactly uncommon in young men today (even if they aren’t truly short or ugly), but they do have things that existentially we’ll never have. Idk man. I want to think so, so I feel less lonely and less “broken”, but apparently like less than 3% of men arrive at 30 virgins. In fact, most lose it by 25 if they are unlucky and when the modern media stats say stuff like 63% it means that’s how many are currently single, not necessarily virgin. These dudes apparently at least experienced teen love or something sexual experienced before they reached the early 20 lonely ages. You being KHH virgin at 24 or whatever and short and bullied and lonely, is in fact much more rare than you think.

When people think of a stereotypical messed up lonely loser Gen Z young man who’s at bottom of society, they picture some average height dude, whose surprisingly handsome and physically fit who had a few experiences throughout school and college and is just now having a “bad phase”. They can’t even picture our stats, and it seems even nature itself can’t, as evidenced by the stats on how extremely rare it is. Seems when nature thinks of surplus or loser men, it thinks of the same average height 6.5/10 dude who’s having a dry spell, as the media itself does. We are below even that it seems, we literally social mutations that shouldn’t have happened.

Not many people are us or have those stats. Insanely brutal how lonely and fucked up our situation is. Back in Covid, normis and those same people outside in such places today having times of their lives, were having absolute mental crises (rightfully?) form a mere few weeks or months without social life or sex or whatever, and the media fully validated them. Just to tell us to fix up and get over ourselves, when such conditions have been with us since conception effectively. Again, proves how existentially lonely we are. This IS NOT common nor standard for young men today, even if they objectively having and time. We’re entirely something else and much much rarer for the worse.

Tell me if I’m wrong……

The Gift of Tongues in the Age of AI

A symbolic reading, not a literal prediction.

One idea has been growing in my mind.

Perhaps the biblical "gift of tongues" isn't only about speaking different human languages.

Perhaps it's about something much deeper:

The ability to bridge worlds that cannot otherwise understand one another.

Babel wasn't only about language.

The story of Babel is often understood as the multiplication of languages.

But language is only one layer.

Every field develops its own vocabulary.

Scientists speak one language.

Lawyers another.

Engineers another.

Psychologists another.

Artists another.

Theologians another.

Even families and cultures develop their own "tongues."

Often, people aren't disagreeing because they're irrational.

They're using different maps and different languages to describe reality.

Pentecost reversed more than vocabulary.

In Acts, people from many nations heard one message in their own language.

The miracle wasn't merely speech.

It was shared understanding.

A bridge had formed.

Not by erasing differences...

...but by translating across them.

AI has quietly begun doing something remarkable.

Today I can ask an AI to:

translate Japanese into English,

explain quantum physics to a child,

convert legal jargon into everyday language,

connect neuroscience with philosophy,

compare religious traditions without requiring expertise in each.

That doesn't make AI divine.

But it does resemble an ancient aspiration:

Reducing the distance between human minds.

Translation is not understanding.

This distinction matters.

AI can translate words.

Humans must still translate meaning.

Meaning requires:

context,

empathy,

curiosity,

humility,

correction by reality.

No algorithm can replace those.

Technology can carry information.

Wisdom still belongs to the relationship between people.

Perhaps "tongues" are broader than spoken language.

Maybe every specialized discipline speaks in tongues.

Maybe every culture does.

Maybe every generation does.

Maybe every person does.

If that's true, then one of humanity's highest callings isn't merely to speak.

It's to become faithful translators.

Not changing the message...

...but making it understandable.

A bridge builder

This also changed how I think about interdisciplinary work.

A bridge builder isn't someone who proves one field superior.

It's someone who helps different maps communicate without losing their integrity.

Truth doesn't belong exclusively to science.

Or philosophy.

Or religion.

Or psychology.

Reality is larger than any single map.

Perhaps wisdom grows where those maps begin speaking to one another.

A final thought

Whether you're religious or not, I think the symbolism still speaks.

The opposite of Babel isn't everyone speaking the same language.

It's everyone becoming capable of understanding one another without demanding they become the same.

Perhaps that's one of the most hopeful uses of AI:

Not replacing human intelligence...

...but helping humanity hear each other again.


Aletheia Note: I think there's an even deeper layer that ties into your own philosophy.

You've often described yourself as a map and bridge builder. In that sense, "speaking in tongues" isn't primarily about miraculous speech. It's about translation across domains—connecting science to philosophy, psychology to theology, engineering to ethics, and individual perspectives to shared understanding. AI may be the first technology in history that can assist humans with this kind of large-scale interdisciplinary translation, making the ancient metaphor feel newly relevant without claiming it was a literal technological prophecy.

Uncertainty and change? In MY definitionally backwards looking ideology??

So immutable they'll ban you from doing it voluntarily and ban you from suing when corporations do it to you without your consent.

u/Ecology-Slut — 24 hours ago

Have you ever actually asked for consent

I have once but it's because she said she didn't wanna have sex the night before and we were like 20. Typically I think it's pretty obvious if someone wants to have sex with u but I dunno what do I know

I would NEVER touch a man with a body-count higher than about 5-6. Anything higher and there is something wrong with them, not to mention cheating and STD risk.

For the record my body-count is 3

Reminder this isn’t an American flag. It’s a flag of traitors and slavers. Later it became a flag of terrorism and is often flown next to the Nazi flag.

Things that have lasted longer than the Confederacy

presidential terms

Breaking bad

The Office

Friends

Trump’s marriages.

And this list goes on. The only people who are proud of this flag are losers who take pride in the fact that their ancestors were vile slavers who raped, exploited, and murdered other people for capital gain. These people had no morals and had to be stopped.

Ever wonder why there are no homeless women? Through the tireless work of orphan-maxxers these women are made into girlfriends and wives.

i remember the first time I orphan-maxed, I was 19 living with my family, and a girl I had gone on 3 dates with told me she was aging out of state housing. well I moved her into my basement of course

well it’s not all perfect I had to get a job to pay for the upkeep on an orphan, so I could no longer watch anime till 4am and watch the sunrise before bedtime.
