@meaningfulideas

You're taking an important idea (children are not free) and then turning it into SJW nonsense used to make ppl less free. Also the second sentence is invalid grammatically.

A child who is BIPOC [...] the systemic oppression we face is that much more intense.

It sucked. Really bad. It felt like a parody at times. Acting was bad (including Reeves'). Story shallow, not enthralling. I won't consider this a sequel to the trilogy.

If you disliked the third one and thought it couldn't get worse: it actually got a lot worse.

[You have] certainly no way of falsifying your accusation.

Somebody I accuse of being second-handed could in principle persuade me that he isn't one and that I'm wrong.

@dchackethal · · Show · Open on Twitter

@IamtheWay13 @krlwlzn

You have no direct access to another person's thoughts.

That's always true, of course, but it doesn't imply that we should never judge. Or we'd have no way of judging!

@dchackethal · · Show · Open on Twitter

@IamtheWay13 @krlwlzn

Yes, but without a good way to distinguish between the two.

Did you read the linked page? I think it contains good ways.

One way to tell is if someone is scared to do something he thinks is right (to the extent that he can) because others might not like it.

@IamtheWay13 @krlwlzn

Everyone repeats ideas shared by other people – that's just enacting memes. I see nothing wrong with that per se.
