But surely anyone’s nose will appear more hooked when widely grinning like that because it’ll slightly raise the points where your nose attaches to your face.

It is known.

Stop sealioning.

Socialism is when nobody does any work

Well obviously the most moral thing would be to live in it themselves or give it away to someone who actually wants to live in it. I accept that practically nobody is gonna be virtuous enough to just give away a free apartment to a homeless person, but selling it for a (at least somewhat) reasonable price is probably what I’d realistically do (assuming no close friend or family member wanted it).

Renting it out is still inherently exploiting the person living there.

Also consider that no “good person” simply owns a residential property that they don’t live in.

I know I’m not who you’re replying to and other people might disagree with parts of this, but can anyone seriously not agree that all landlords are scum?

say anything even vaguely related to China without also saying how much you hate China and everything about it = tankie

Then inevitably one person will come along and say “haha tankie, opinion rejected” and another will try to change the topic entirely to why “China is bad” for some very loosely related reason.

(Edit: typo)

Basically everyone has little knowledge about the vast majority of things. People who have strong beliefs generally think they have good evidence for them (even if what they think is clearly untrue and their evidence is nonsensical).

I’ve heard of “appeal to authority” and such, but at the end of the day I think that it’s generally sensible to just believe the mainstream expert consensus on something until you’re given good evidence otherwise, especially if you’re dealing with hard science.

Of course it’s ideal to know more about a topic than basic things you were told and took as fact and this should be paired with some level of media literacy and critical thinking, though.

Thanks for your 2893rd comment on Lemmy to date.
