Have You Ever Beta Orbited a Girl

I could actually get on board with ‘blaming social media’ for why women are WILLING to get divorced more often.

If you are provided with a looking Glass into millions of case studies about how leaving your man didn’t end your life as you know it you’d probably be more likely to consider it.

Obviously the same would apply to men, although probably to a much lesser degree

Agreed, but we also know social media is about as close to real life as this thread is so that’s a bit of a double edge sword.

You could always quit while you’re behind, but no, we all know that it doesn’t work like that.

You’ve been tripping over your dick for like 800 posts or so now. Don’t you think it might be time to reevaluate?

Maybe it is time for you and others to reevaluate?

Hell, I got thrown a hilarious “get off facebook” reference post which is fucking unreal considering in the last few years we’ve seen algorithms/AI/social media whatever you want to call it practically rip apart the EU, influence an election in the U.S , and cause untold havoc in other areas but I should

“get off facebook” because it’s not a good indicator of anything. uh huh, either some of you are completely ignorant or just morons.

The implications of reinforce algorithms are HUGE and I wouldn’t be surprised if what I have observed in my day to day is a direct result of people being influenced online but maybe that’s just my ‘bubble’ lol

You quoted when I said cheating started with social media? lol, really? Show me.

I wonder if some of you know how hypothesis’ are usually formed… I never said any of this was absolute fact. These are my opinions.

If external forces like the Russian’s influenced the U.S. election via bots and fake news isn’t that a prime example of why social media isn’t a good indicator of anything or the very least politics?

What does this have to do with you re-evaluating your stance? Seems like you’re trying to rationalize why you shouldn’t because of algorithms? Jesus dude are you implying ever individual in here who disagrees with you is being influenced by REINFORCEMENT algorithms (it’s reinforcement algorithms no reinforce algorithm btw … good job at continuing to misuse terms you clearly don’t understand … but that’s par for the course for you isn’t it)

Look man, you’re right, people need to reevaluate their stances - shit I do it all the time, I’d recommend you do it as well and not in some superficial “see I did it and i still think this” way but legitimately take a step back and re-evaluate your thought processes, the arguments you use, the fact your clearly have at best a superficial understanding of statistics, algorithms, neuroscience, etc. and maybe try being a bit humble – your perspective might actually be received better than the approach you’ve been taking.

Of course, you could be just in here for the lulz, in which case, congrats you’ve got 'em

You are attributing your observed “increase” in women cheating to social media.

That’s not what he said. You’re deflecting.

And now you’re blaming human choices on social media algorithms. Does anyone have personal agency in your worldview?

The ultimate Zep moment. Where he discredits his entire view with a single sentence.

Goddamn I missed this

Zep…

Only he has that power … clearly

I find it hard to believe anyone thinks social media is a true indicator of real life.

When you’re standing in a room thinking “what a bunch of assholes” it might not be everybody else that is the asshole.

Nah, it’s just groupthink. @pfury @flipcollar are pretty liberal. I think @EmilyQ is fairly liberal too. @Basement_Gainz is libertarian or close to it and me and @polo77j both lean right, but I think are closer to the middle than BG. And we all seem to agree at least on the big picture… That should tell you something.

@SkyzykS sorry I have no idea how you lean politically.
