Agree or Disagree III

Indeed. The War by far has been the biggest strategic mistake done in recent history.

The real reason why birth rates are declining and less people become parents has more to do with economic reasons than cultural. A lot of people would have liked to become young parents, had they have proper housing and stable income.

by **A m e n r i a** » Sun May 15, 2022 8:54 pm

Disagree, it's both factors equally. Our youth are sadly getting more detached from Confucian values and aren't very enthusiastic about the joys of marriage. Although in their defence, I can understand why.

Cultural horror is the best kind of horror because it's not generic westernized shit. It's unique and shows the distinct themes and ideas of a particular culture. The best ones are Thai.

you're wrong about movies too, wow

the best thing about runescape is that it'll never fuckin die

It's both, but the economic reason is the opposite of what you think: Culturally, people who are educated don't want to make babies, economically people who don't need child labor won't make babies. Economic prosperity, good labor laws (that eliminate child labor), welfare and high literacy is why people don't have many babies in western countries and those who do tend to be either economically ailing or not very educated.

I have no idea what cultural horror is, but as I dislike horror as a genre in general I couldn't say whether I agree with you statement for sure.

Atomic-powered cars are not really a good idea to pursue.

disagree, so long as theyre fission reactors.

America wont exist after their next election.

by **Frisemark** » Sun May 15, 2022 11:02 pm

Uh, disagree. Things are bad, but not national collapse-level bad. We've had worse. Just have to get through this round of it all.

Genshin Impact gets unnecessary amounts of hate by people who have little to no genuine information about it.

by **A m e n r i a** » Mon May 16, 2022 2:53 am

Agree. It's a great game.

A race between a corgi and a penguin would be funny because of how they walk.

AAN: Disagree, I am an ex-Genshin player myself. The game is horribly flawed (resin system especially), the Gacha has one of the worst rates I have seen (most of what you win is useless), the game takes forever to update (so it's boring once you clear the Archon Quests), and lastly, the fanbase is an utter atrocity in and of itself. I quit Genshin because of the lack of things to do and mistreatment by my "allies" in game.

AN: Agreed. WADDLE WADDLE.

Faux Cyrillic might look funny but it is confusing to people like me who can read Cyrillic.

Example: ЯUSSIAИ
That's not an R, that's "Ya." The Reversed N is "I"
So we have: Yaussiai.

Thэrэ is no probleш whatsoэver with Яussian rэvэrsal IMO.

Marcha Real is the best national anthem in Europe

by **Sugarica** » Mon May 16, 2022 8:14 am

Respectfully disagree. I have never heard that anthem before (but I will make a note to).

My opinion: The Enderman is the best Minecraft mob.

by **Free Ravensburg** » Mon May 16, 2022 8:17 am

Kinda agree

On the same note, endermen do not teleport, they just run real fast

IIRC someone determined that (gameplay-wise) this was a fact a while back. canonically, though, I think that they teleport.

emojis are overused and annoying

by **Meadowfields** » Mon May 16, 2022 8:37 am

Nah,

La Marseillaise is one of the best national anthems in the world

by **Frokolia** » Mon May 16, 2022 8:47 am

Agree, if rather violent at times

Air hockey is the best form of hockey

by **Free Ravensburg** » Mon May 16, 2022 8:49 am

No, it is just pong before pong.

Outlast is kinda good horror done right in a sci-fi perspective.

there are no good deltarune characters

Wrong. Eventide media center better.

Analogue horror is kinda better than Hollywood films combined

Slightly agreed.

r/neoconnwo is a great sub

by **Frisemark** » Mon May 16, 2022 4:15 pm

No clue. Haven’t heard of it before.

Sabaton is a massively overrated band because they’ve become lazy and do much of the same music; subsequently, their fanbase is awful, and their tacit refusal to condemn the significant portion of people in their audience who are wehraboos or neo-nazis (ostensibly to not affect sales) is sickening.

by **Pulsroth** » Mon May 16, 2022 4:45 pm

Sabaton do have a tendency to stick to what they know best. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing for me, because I still like some of their work (even though my metal devotion lies with the symphonic side of power metal!) But a little overrated? Maybe. As for their fanbase though, I honestly don't know enough about Sabaton diehards to agree or disagree.

D.W Griffith's Birth Of A Nation is more than deserving of its place in the Library Of Congress.

by **Meadowfields** » Mon May 16, 2022 4:50 pm

I mean, yeah, even though it's racist af, it should be in the Library of Congress because it is obviously an important work, regardless of its political stance, but I wouldn't say it deserves more as it's still racist, so disagree. Just to simplify my stance: Any work should be in the Library of Congress, except for books explicitly banned, however some might not deserve more.

All animals are sentient. Period. Sentiency means they feel emotions, all animals can feel emotions.

by **Juansonia** » Mon May 16, 2022 6:30 pm

Disagree: sponges are animals, and their emotional capacity hasn't been proven.

The only good reason to not fully automate metro trains (subways, U-Bahns, etc. not sharing track with freight) is jobs/unions.

edit: added line between response and statement

by **Ard alAkhua** » Mon May 16, 2022 8:13 pm

Agreed.

Ethno-nationalism in practice has generally led to more bad things than good things.

by **Red Lake Circle** » Mon May 16, 2022 8:19 pm

It's totally abhorrent in both theory and practice. I don't think I need to elaborate any further lol

The modern Francafrique program is horrifying, and is a great example as to how colonialism never really ended.
