    It was relevant to this discussion as I’m saying I similarly wouldn’t bring this truth up with someone like my mother or similar as shown in the original post.

    My goal is not to convince anyone who feels differently, I just felt others could relate to my example. I will not provide any explanation unless specifically asked as my goal here is not to force my knowledge onto someone who doesn’t want it.

        Sorry I triggered you. I was predestined to make the comment I made. This one too. Please choose to disengage if it would benefit you most.

        I’m always open to any evidence to change my position, I just never am presented with any.

            Telling someone that their thought process is flawed/immature is not the same as being triggered. The amount of text contained in your answer is usually associated with “being triggered” though (at least in my experience)

            Then again, depending on what exactly one means with “triggered”, you could say that you’ve “been triggered” (like activating some mechanism or something) to write a long response :D

            (Not trying to join any side of the original discussion, just sharing what’s on my mind ^^)

            Yes, that’s correct.

            I have answered the only question presented to me. The rest is you ranting aimlessly to feel better about your own position.

            I wish I had 1,000 more understanding though! If you have any legitimate evidence to provide that demonstrates I’m wrong, please share it. If not, shut the fuck up. Or don’t. It’s not in your control anyway.

            I would greatly appreciate it if you could meaningfully clarify what ‘truths’ I should take away from your comment and why.

      I think he’s trying to refute your claim that your will isn’t free. I.e. you made that comment of your own free will. Not literally asking why you made the comment.

        I do not believe I had free will to make or not the comment. And this seems upsetting to many. So I suggest they just keep their world view if it benefits them.
