Exactly! If it was just magic, things seem underwhelming all of a sudden - like why couldn't you give zebras wings or laser vision? Why not have a grizzly bear with chainsaw arms on wheels? No ant computers or space octopuses? Makes nature seem arbitrarily limited and uncreative (and cruel) in comparison to what unlimited magic could accomplish.

(Just to be clear, this is not an argument against God since you could always just say "god set nature up to allow for natural evolution and has reasons for not going all out with creativity" - it's unfalsifiable but you could believe that)

  • The Bugle (satire about the news)
  • The Deprogram (far left politics, very funny hosts)
  • Blowback (documentary style show about US interventions in different places - more interesting than it sounds)
  • Radiolab (sciencey stuff)

So they just threw out the results of a free and fair election because one candidate was just too good at social media campaigning? Democracy ftw

You couldn't get more "clear cut" than what Israel is doing. It's also a matter of degree. Invading another country is bad, but it is not a holocaust.

Besides, boycotting Russian products makes no sense in the West given that they are already sanctioned to hell. You'd have to go out of your way to send them money.

Man, Lemmings just love downvoting anything that hurts their fee fees.

Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib had no problems keeping their jobs. It's almost like they are different from the all the losers in their party in some way (hint: it's nothing to do with race or gender).
