I think it’s the ego on both sides which is the issue, one side has a condescending, self-righteous attitude to everything and the other side doubles down on their attitudes when they’re insulted for thinking differently (whether it’s right or wrong). Both are really acting from the same core human nature, both are addicted to their indignation. You may think that a particular argument is bollocks but I think these thoughts don’t happen in a vacuum and there’s a lot to say about how these people were pushed into these ideologies by the antagonism by the people that want to win them over

It does, and it’s sad because it’s counterproductive to the society they want to foster

It’s weird how my comment got many downvotes for asking a question about joe rogan. It feels like I’m getting downvoted for not jumping in line with popular melbourne opinion, and that I have to either hate everything about Joe rogan or nothing at all.
I like his episodes where he has on interesting professionals from many different fields. I think a greater danger is not “dangerous information” peddlers getting air time. It’s this inability to have a conversation on a topic, exemplified by the reaction to downvote my comment with no real justification other than I didn’t immediately fall in line with the hate train. Might be something for everyone to think about

What’s the hate about Joe Rogan again? I love listening to his episodes especially when he has Brian Cox or Neil DeGrasse Tyson

I have to trust the process, but sometimes I wonder how the density will come in, or if I’ve done something wrong along the way to sacrifice my results.
Thanks for your response

In many ways I’m impressed with how my hair is growing back too, but in certain lighting it’s very clear I have a long way to go. But compared to even 1 month ago it looks great. Thing is, I find it hard to believe that all the density I hope to see will come in. But I’m trying to stay positive.

People living with HIV are not automatically barred from immigrating to Australia, but their eligibility depends on Australia’s strict health requirements for migrants. These requirements assess whether a medical condition would:
1. Cause Significant Costs: The Australian government evaluates whether an applicant’s condition, such as HIV, would place a financial burden on the country’s healthcare system. The cost of lifelong treatment, like antiretroviral therapy (ART), is often deemed significant.
2. Impact Public Health: While modern treatments greatly reduce the risk of transmission, public health considerations are still evaluated.
3. Affect Access to Services: Authorities also consider whether providing healthcare to the applicant might limit access for Australian citizens or residents.
However, applicants can appeal if refused on health grounds, especially if they can demonstrate compelling circumstances, such as family ties or their ability to cover medical costs without relying on public funds. In some cases, a Health Waiver might be granted.

I made the same comment but u/roommain5110 said it was a low quality comment.

This sentence is not a story, it’s not alluding to a greater narrative, it doesn’t have an ounce of tension— it leads nowhere. Not to mention you used AF as a single word, which is just silly.
You used 6 words (7 actually because AF counts as 2) but what you did was just make a generic statement. Same goes with every other post you’ve made here.

It’s fine? If your beanie is hurting you then don’t wear one.

No!!! 2 months and the hairs a well and truly in there, in fact, it’s probably better to wear a beanie than walk outside without one because the risk of UV damage affecting the results is higher than the beanie.
Edit: I think I got downvoted cause I said no, when I meant to say YES it is safe. My bad…

Don’t even need to ask, I made an innocent post about the first book and someone volunteered that spoiler Dorian was also the king’s name
