Some callous dudes out there I dunno obviously if the guy knew where the shooter was or not

@jross I know you love AI, so I thought this might be helpful for you: Are stereotypes logical? ChatGPT said: Stereotypes can appear superficially logical, but they're not truly logical when examined critically. Here's a breakdown of why: Why They Might Seem Logical: Based on Patterns: Stereotypes often stem from observed patterns in behavior, culture, or demographics. For example, if a group statistically tends to do X more than another group, it can lead to a generalization. Cognitive Shortcuts: Our brains use heuristics (mental shortcuts) to make quick judgments in complex situations. Stereotyping is one such shortcut — a fast way to predict behavior when we lack detailed information. Why They’re Not Truly Logical: Overgeneralization: Stereotypes assume that all or most members of a group share the same traits, which is statistically and logically false. Groups contain vast individual variation. Confirmation Bias: People tend to notice evidence that supports a stereotype and ignore or discount evidence that contradicts it. Lack of Causal Understanding: Stereotypes often confuse correlation with causation. Just because something is more common in a group doesn’t mean it’s inherent or caused by group identity. Self-fulfilling Prophecies: Acting on a stereotype can influence behavior in a way that reinforces the stereotype, creating a feedback loop rather than an objective truth. Moral and Logical Fallacy: Judging an individual based on group characteristics commits the fallacy of division (assuming what’s true of the group is true of each member). Example: Stereotype: "All programmers are introverts." Flawed logic: Some programmers are introverts, but that doesn’t logically imply that all are. Nor does it mean being introverted is caused by programming or vice versa.

By the students, sure I agree

TMZ stay classy

Lol, you can't just decide which stereotypes you want to believe and which you don't. The idea that liberal-minded people don't care about self-accountability and respect is also a wrong and harmful stereotype. Here is your essential worldview: Stereotypes about people I don't like are true. Stereotypes about people like me aren't true. If I know a few details about a person (skin color, politics, location, etc...) I can neatly apply my pre-conceived stereotype and know exactly what kind of person they are.

What discussion led you to believe one cannot push back? Unlike the accurate stereotypes, to say that conservatives are racist is a wrong and harmful one. If it was most conservatives, then you would be fine. But it is by far a minority of conservatives that are racist... so you are wrong.

That's how you see it, sure. That's also still a provocation.

Because "words are violent" to whomever finds it offensive.

Why so much jk Rowling hate? Or Rogan hate for that matter

Bluesky is so much better /s

No rebuttal. Facts are hard to refute.

They typically do not rank incoming freshmen. If you were to rank the freshmen, who would they be, and where would you rank them?

I think I am missing a few other schools too. My filter logic was not so great. When I finish QAing the data I will re-compute. But, until then, let's talk about Brockport St. During the wilderness years they scored 25 team points. That slots them between John Carroll and Grand Valley State.

Nah. It’s a fact that you can’t handle facts. Everything he said is true and all you got is to play the race card.

What did you idiots think was going to happen when libtardos vilified the police and then wanted to defund them. When there aren’t enough police who do you think is next in line???

What’s wrong with any of his 3 bullets?

Jimmy, come up with something original for once. Your lack of maturity is showing.

It’s funny how you wokesters can’t handle facts

Provoked? More like Made them look stupid when they all thought they were going to hand him his lunch.

That makes him American, not left or right.

Back on track here The FBI has released images of a person of interest sought in connection with the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk, the founder of the conservative youth activist organization Turning Point USA, during an event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday. "We are asking for the public's help identifying this person of interest in connection with the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University," the FBI's Salt Lake City office said on X on Thursday while sharing two images of the individual, who is wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses and was captured in a stairwell in one of them. https://abcnews.go.com/amp/US/charlie-kirk-shooting-fbi-appeals-tips-manhunt-continues/story?id=125469211

Where do you think I learned it from?

Many stereo types are based on statistical reality, without care for how it makes you uncomfortable. Stereotypes are part of our biological need to survive. I may be stupid but it is naive to think we shouldn't use stereotypes or for anyone to claim they don't. We can be aware of them and try to recognize the dangers... but never go so far as to dismiss the good of them. Would you ask an old person in a wheel chair if they can grab the other side of that 200 pound sofa? Or a toddler for directions? There is a tiger, should I pet him? 20 young men showed up at closing time in the parking lot of this fair, wearing red and blue. Should I ask if they want to join me in hacky sack? Stereotypes are often accurate. Men are stronger than women Asians are good at math African Americans are less likely to have two parent households Jews are good with money Americans are fat Engineers are analytical Stereotypes are probabilistic sketches, not absolute rules. Understanding and using stereotypes is not automatically dehumanizing. But I'm stupid.

Yes, stereotypes are factually wrong because they're making a simplified, general claim about a diverse group of subjects. It is the opposite of thinking. You're pasting a ready-made judgment about someone onto them before ever addressing them as an individual human being. And that kind of seeing the world is exactly what leads to something like the Holocaust. The Nazis believed Jews, as a stereotyped group, were ruining the world and had to be exterminated. They pasted a stereotype onto individuals and that made it justifiable in their eyes to kill those individuals. Same thing in Rwanda: (You are Tutsi) + (Tutsis are evil) = You are evil, and therefore must die. And you, by your own admission, see the world through this framework. Let's make it more personal as an example. Common stereotype about conservatives: they are racist. You are conservative. Conservatives are racist. Therefore you are racist. And now you can't push back on that because it follows the exact logic that you're promoting. So, we have established at least 1 of 2 things: 1) jross is stupid and/or immoral or 2) jross is racist

Stay out of the hall of stereo types. For the record this clip is Greta thunberg level unfunny Note. This is south park. It may be offensive to some humans. Watch at your own discretion and make sure a parent is aware
