Makes you wonder what “fact” they’ve been exposed to that has broken reality for them.

I’m also intrigued as to how someone deals with reality being “morally wrong”.

These days? Fuck, it could be something as simple as Starbuck's pumpkin spice not actually tasting like pumpkin.

pumpkin spice not actually tasting like pumpkin

It's not supposed to. Pumpkin spice refers to the spice mix often used in pumpkin pie: cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and sometimes allspice.

That's the joke, yes.

Reeee hard enough to warp reality, even if it's in their heads?

I once saw a group of self declared anti-woke detrans girls all have a fit when someone pointed out skin darkness is a sexually dimophic trait in humans.

They went straight back to screaming about evil whiteness, boomers and colonialism in an instant.

They were all white of course.

Usually when this comes up it’s rooted in the fear that if certain information comes to light it will be used to legitimize the oppression of others, that the descriptive will become proscriptive. It’s an understandable fear imo but I don’t think suppression of inquiry is the right way to handle it.

The problem with that approach is the end result is usually the same. If you try and hide something for fear it might impact a certain group, the fact you hid it is going to be used as proof by the group you were trying to hide it from, that they were right to be suspicious.

It'd be a real shame if someone buried the data.

You are looking way too far into something this...furry? said.

I'm almost certain that they did not have this same thought process.

Additionally, there is NO INSTANCE where reality and truth should be suppressed. Literally none.

Lies are bad and all, but if they are morally right, then they should be shared.

If you believe that facts should abide by a moral code, then you are either dishonest or brainwashed. It only depends where you stand on the hierarchy of whatever group decides what you think.
