    I think your meme is funny! I would guess three reasons that make up the majority of your downvotes are 1) some people downvote posts with grammatical errors. There are several (very minor!) errors in your post, which might also lead to 2) some people may have misunderstood your post. I actually misinterpreted it at first as something along the lines of your sister having a secret NSFW account, which didn’t make sense and confused me, so I had to reread it a couple times to understand what you meant. And 3) might be the tankies who take even the smallest criticism of TikTok as hate of the Chinese government, so they’ll downvote because they think people exaggerate the privacy issues around TikTok due to bigotry against China.







  • I do think apps are useful for maintaining some level of reading fluency after establishing a baseline competency. I took 4 years of French through high school and college, but that was years ago. I stopped working on it for a long time and lost like 90% of my vocab and conjugations, but apps are bringing most of it back. They haven’t helped at all for listening though, I’ve been relying on listening to TV/movies/podcasts in French to improve as I can’t afford tutoring with any native speakers.

    I found your meme very funny as a scientist who enjoys philosophy. I will correct you though, science absolutely investigates the foundations of science itself. The average layperson sees the term “laws” and believes that science has decided this is 100% the way things work and it will never be investigated again, but science itself is very aware of how often new information invalidates old information. The way the atom has been modeled over the years is a prime example, each time scientists are presented with new data the model is changed. I was taught in my freshman year to never say a law was “proven” but to say it had “overwhelming supporting evidence” instead, because that leaves room for the possibility of evidence to the contrary. I’m not sure what you mean by causation being presupposed.

    I’m not a mathematician, so I’m not sure how concrete mathematical proofs are considered, or if there is some room for interpretation/new data.



  • Using autism as an insult isn’t exactly colorful, it just shows you’ve never met and/or respected an autistic person.

    Colorful would’ve been something like “fucknut idiots with donkey cum for brains”, or “shitbrained human equivalents of a week-old used tampon”, or “assfaces who would lose a spelling competition to a dead camel”, etc.

    You could be a lot more creative, funny, and less offensive if your goal is colorful. If your goal is to regurgitate weak ass meme language from 4chan, keep equating people you don’t like with autism
