Man, I really do commend the effort you put into this. I'm so far into cynicism land that I don't think I can find my way back.

I just can't help feel like you're wasting your breath trying to reason with ozma (as is evidenced by his hilarious reply to the same comment I'm replying to)

Your idea doesn't sound too difficult to implement but I don't know if people would want to store all these messages locally when the vast majority of people are used to having their shit be stored elsewhere. Additionally, if you wanted to target enterprise users, they would want to likely have all their messages centralised for auditing purposes

Other than that, I think its a pretty neat idea

You sure the heading shouldn't read

Cause that feels more appropriate

Maybe they mean privilege wrt education? As i understand it, it takes a non-zero amount of knowledge about nutrition to substitute meat completely and not be deficient in something. But I'm a life-long omnivore so I may be wrong

That's a great point. I was being kind of reductive.

Perhaps religion's most zealous followers tend to be people who have trouble contextualising information? That would certainly help explain why the "I got mine proceeds to pull up ladder " attitude is so prevalent there...
Anyway, I don't want to come across like I'm arguing with you.

I wonder if the concept of religion itself is conservative or if it just attracts that kind of person? My understanding is that most religions' holy texts are effectively just guide books on how not to be a dick to others (not that religious people actually read them that way). I wish someone would do a study to explore this cognitive dissonance in more depth

As someone who always has a lot of questions (and is generally clueless about most of -waves hands- this stuff), I appreciate people like you

I appreciate the actual explanation. I was genuinely asking, although I thought the commenter's reply was much funnier.

What a world we live in.

Hmmm UTC-5, i'd say. Or maybe -6? With daylight crimings, its hard to keep track of

Maybe also archive the reddit page on the wayback machine and add the link to the post? So in the event that you needed the original you could still view it without giving traffic to reddit.
