Can I ask what use this information would have to you?

It was, unfortunately, yeah.

My freaking God. I volunteered at a local charity org a bit this summer and one of the first things they told us in orientation was that “most people think that poverty is about what people lack. But it’s actually a mindset.” That pissed me the heck off not gonna lie.

You might need to elaborate. I’m confused at the Bell curve (which is a visual representation of the normal distribution) not having any value at all.

The Central Limit Theorem guarantees that the normal distribution will show up all over the place. To say that it has no value scientifically is simply false.

We have had the solution for hundreds of years. Most people, however, don’t want to hear it.

The very system you defend is everything but a neutral experience where everyone can live their lives. You don’t think capitalism actively holds people down? Look around.

Except that many of us, including myself, live reasonably comfortable lives under capitalism? It’s an extremely selfish position to be satisfied with a system that has done good things for you personally, but has ravaged the lives of countless others.

It’s not about free stuff. It has never been about free stuff. It’s about the fact that a society is bad if it allows a minority population to get richer, without first ensuring that everyone’s basic human needs are satisfied.

Heyo that’s dope! Definitely adding that video to my watch later. Thanks for explaining that.

How do reflections work? Aren’t changes in direction caused by acceleration? Also aren’t photons affected by the gravity of black holes? How does that work?

Yeah I had a similar situation. My dad was a toxic person who thought it was wrong when I cried (which I did a lot; I was a very emotional kiddo) and my mom did everything she could to protect me from that. They eventually separated the year I went into high school, and guess which one I still talk to now in my adult life.
