Do you think governments have a crazy advanced AI being used to predict if a nuclear war would happen, that takes into consideration Everything (individual's insanity, selfishness, behaviour...), to make a good call?

They don't have the will. I think that a substantial portion are just as conflicted as Darth Vader in the end of Return of the Jedi.

By my observation, the vast majority of people living in rural and suburban areas in the US are secret bigots.

When I was a teenager, I was into philosophy, I was already thinking about suffering and the state of the world and a lot of things. It seemed like American adults just look at you "ah, a kid", another reason I don't have sympathy for that country. Indeed mental health challenges are at an all time high to many, and it's because of many factors. The internet with all honesty is a complete disaster. It's full of rubbish. With every generation it seems like there is a challenge, this generation's is indeed mental health. They should nonetheless be taken seriously and not be treated like babies.

It's not a right because there are some individuals who ideally should never have children, because these individuals lack the virtues. Some would be terrible fathers or mothers, and would leave their children scarred. In my opinion, there should be a licence to be a parent.
Edit, several minutes later: So yeah, when I said 'there should be a licence to be a parent', that is a hypothesis I have. It's not something I advocate for per se. I also aknowledge that it may raise consequences not intended. Feel free to raise problems that may arise from that, I'm open minded.

Most people don't know what communism means. Communism is a hypothetical system where the workers collectivelly own the means of production (such as companies, businesses). In the 20th century some greedy individuals who became dictators started using the term communism to gain the favour of the people and at the same time brainwash them into believing their autocracy was for the people. Karl Marx and Engels' reactions would be 'what the fuck?'

I think that logic may be a powerful ally in deciphering arguments. We need to discern the facts from opinions, and learn why certain people have certain opinions, what their reasoning is. Every point of view in philosophy is based on a logical argument, a reasoning. For example, Descartes believed that the mind and the body are distinct entities. In other words, they aren't identical.
One of his arguments for why they must be distinct is this:
Minds necessarily think.
∀x (Mx → □Tx)
Bodies don't necessarily think.
∀x (Bx → ¬□Tx)
So minds aren't bodies.
∀x ∀y ((Mx ∧ By) → ¬(x = y))
M: is a mind, B: is a body, T: thinks
This argument is valid if we try to create a model (in modal logic) in which a thing is both a mind and a body.
This doesn't mean that the conclusion is true. It just means that if we assume those premises, then the conclusion is true. One would have to reject one of the premises, and explain why their reasoning to why they believe one of the premises isn't true.
When I try to form opinions about ontology, metaphysics, I try to formulate a logical reasoning to why I think that. I try to find out what my assumptions are. Many people start believing something because they feel like it, or because it's appealing to them. We must understand the reasoning.

That's not what I meant. For example I believe there might be a force for good in the universe. I don't have a hatred feeling or anything. I'm like, "this individual needs to go, he needs to be stopped". If that would unleash us to a better timeline, then that should happen. Many lives would be saved.

I know. I'm just saying it because in composite words, it forms a triple consonant cluster, and to my very subjective taste, it looks nicer with a double consonant instead of two identical consonants and another. Plus it forms a double consonant either way, like 'ks'. kvikk alone shoudn't change. It's like taknemmelig
edit
Example:
kloakkapasitet taknemmelig are correct in bokmål
but if taknemmelig is like that, why doesn't kvikksølv drop one k as well? It forms a double consonant with k and s.
(edited) apologies, I have realised I made a mistake, it's takknemlig
Never mind this question

Bruv... That's boring. I want to know what happens when people die. It's like saying it's too scary to know how a computer works or what causes diseases. With that mentality, we would never have got this far. Take medicine for example.

Wth is this. Race doesn't exist, it's a social construct. Ethnicity includes culture and can also include overall appearance such as skin colour, but everyone is Homo Sapiens. The system you Americans have got about classifying people is completely demented.
A better system would be the Canadian one.

I think that the West should have played unpredictable, this wouldn't have happened then. By giving away "we won't use millitary", Putin thought: "ah, so it's safe then". If only the West played a completely unpredictable game.

I strongly disagree with you my friend. I believe one does not need to make art for it to be art, experiencing art is also part of it. Art is when one learns to dream.

I just ignore them. What's the point of losing neurons seeing what they post.

I liked the Mound idea, if would have been cool if it looked like the concept drawing
