A hill you are prepared to die on

[xxxx01]

What is your hill you are prepared to die on.

Mine is the moon landing was fake.
Botox makes you look older.
Sex is overrated.
Some art work is not art its crap.

You are me 😂😂

You’re fine to be on here though?

People who are too stupid to know the difference between there, their and they're shouldn't be contributing to online discussions.

Absolutely, these people think - somehow - they're more clever and better informed than all these scientists, aeronautical engineers, coders, biochemists etc?
Arrogance and stupidity intertwined.

See this is another thing that annoys me. The odd cigarette isn’t THAT bad for you, but I wouldn’t let my kids do that either.

Yes, that really amused me!

Bottlefeeding isn't as good for babies as breastfeeding is.

People who think 'a bit' and 'a lot' are one word are more stupid than single cell organisms at the bottom of a stagnant pond. See also 'should of' and 'could of' etc.

The state of Israel has the right to exist
Women have the right to single sex spaces
"Gender" is made up bollocks which started being used as a polite way of saying "sex" and has gone far too far
Dogs shouldn't be allowed in any place that sells food, except for service dogs
Service dogs are not the same as emotional therapy dogs - the former are rigorously trained by professional bodies and the latter aren't
Getting older isn't something to be feared - its a privilege
Chocolate with palm oil in it tastes foul and contributes to the destruction of rain forests and therefore the death of orangutans

It's hardly mentally taxing is it? If I could get a job writing drivel then I could work I suppose, but they're not really available.

But why do so many 'hills I will die on' have to be nasty ones?

These threads are always designed to attract a certain kind of poster and whip up a bit of hate/meanness, and never fail to do so.

It would be nice to see a few more posters wanting to die on a hill of positivity, at least!

Every (healthy) baby can be sleep trained. Not all of them will sleep through the night, but they will all sleep better.

“Biology is fixed and immutable but I don't care if other people disagree, I don't care what they call themselves or how they choose to present themselves, I don't care where they piss and I will do my level best to use their preferred pronouns and champion their dignity.”
The problem is when those who do disagree that sex is immutable try to fundamentally change how the issue is framed and presented so that we are not allowed to believe the evidence of our own eyes and are forced to comply with what are, in essence, lies. This is what ‘being kind’ has brought us to.
All men should be kept out of women’s safe spaces, for obvious reasons.

I am not saying I think it is likely that they did, just that I wouldnt be surprised if they had given how corrupt the US government was at the time (and every day since tbh!). Not the same thing.

I would agree that the Russians never claiming it to be faked is quite telling.

In developed countries, the positive effects of breastfeeding past a few weeks are marginal and the overall health of the mother and the baby should be taken into consideration.

I might be finding multiple versions of your corpse across various small mountain ranges as I'd strongly disagree with a couple of those 😂

Mine would be that you can't call margarine butter. Or rather that it should be outlawed to do so.

In fact margarine should be outlawed in general accept for in baking recipes. It cannot be spread on bread or toast or mixed into scrambled egg or anything! Arghhh!

That isn't true.

Of course it's anecdotal! I assumed @Thisisnottheone was intelligent enough to know that my family's experience wasn't being offered as scientific evidence. I don't imagine she needed anyone to point that out to her.

There is research into the links between tattoo ink and immune reactions.

Autoimmune diseases running in families doesn't rule out environmental contributors nor does knowing people with autoimmune diseases who don't have tattoos.

On the gender point, Yougov actually found tattoos are more common in women than men. Though I also personally believe there are other factors contributing to women having autoimmune diseases more often.

Tattoos are one potential contributing factor we can choose to avoid.

Another one - there is absolutely no link between vaccines and autism. Zero.

Corrupt governments can still have significant technological and scientific achievements.

School.

*If 12-14 years of full time education qualifies you to do absolutely nothing, then this needs to be reviewed.

*A child's education will not suffer if they miss a week or two to go on holiday.

All the covid crap half of what was said and done was not needed.

How does botox migrate, curious?

Another hill I’ll die on. All these adults who can’t possibly work 30 hours a week in a basic admin job, but are on here all hours of day and night writing long, complex and lucid posts. I mean we weren’t born yesterday.

Agree with the posters saying dogs should be on short leads in public areas. And shops are not dog exercise areas. I didn't know they were allowed in McDonalds (but I don't go there anyway). I'd also ban those extendable leads unless you are training the dog.

Vans and cars should not go on pavements.

If there is even one private car in Central London not owned by a resident or blue badge holder, the congestion charge is too low.

I agree taking your husband's name is patriarchal but if you keep your own that was probably your dad's so is it actually any better? Even if you take your mum's name, that was probably her dad's name too. But at least going forward it sorts things out.

In the vast majority of cases, people do not need to take their kids out of school to go on holiday. There are 13 weeks holiday a year and private schools have even more.
