Politically, I'm pretty firm in my anti-capitalist stance and I think I've learned enough to be justifiably confident about that. But I'm relatively a lot less educated about the specifics of future socialist alternatives. There's a bunch of reading out there, but it's hard to keep my attention focused long enough to do that kind of reading without more structure behind it like I had when I was in school.

Epstein didn’t kill himself. Epstein island was a Mossad honey trap. Does that one count?

Short-form video is destroying attention spans and critical thinking skills. The level of brainrot I see in people who are hooked on Tiktok or other platforms is staggering. "I saw 500 10-second videos about this topic and now believe it with every ounce of my being, because the algorithm specifically pushes this particular point of view." seems to be a common occurrence these days.

I believe what scientists say about vaccines, climate change, etc. is right even though I don’t know all the exact research myself. Does that count?

I believe my wife loves me, even though she's unable or unwilling to articulate why. There's a song she likes where the chorus goes "I don't know why I love you, I just do", a sentiment she finds romantic and I find vaguely terrifying.

I deliberately make it a point not to, when I can.

No investigation, no right to speak.

I don't know how exactly it should be implemented but Germany needs a serious inheritance tax. Tbh. due to not having it in the past a wealth tax might be advised as well.

I want to live in a world where a worker** totally can earn 100x what another worker earns, but not in a world where you earn 100x because of daddy's money. For that we have to get rid of insane inheritance. I also think this rectifies criminal generational wealth like the church or old noble families.

Let's be honest: Life is good in Germany so only few people actually complain about that, but it is a * unfair system and I can understand everyone who doesn't want to play in it.

Basically everyone has little knowledge about the vast majority of things. People who have strong beliefs generally think they have good evidence for them (even if what they think is clearly untrue and their evidence is nonsensical).

I've heard of "appeal to authority" and such, but at the end of the day I think that it's generally sensible to just believe the mainstream expert consensus on something until you're given good evidence otherwise, especially if you're dealing with hard science.

Of course it's ideal to know more about a topic than basic things you were told and took as fact and this should be paired with some level of media literacy and critical thinking, though.

I strongly believe that I can get trans girls pregnant despite the fact I have no evidence in the affirmative but I am still conducting research with great fervour

Everything will be ok.

the dynamics of aviation safety, especially for this year falldown where we witness several airplane crashes that resulting more fatalities.

let say before 2024, the track record was good enough. like I didn't read or notified much about air crashes at that time. there are several air crashes, but only few I can consider fatal or serious incident.

but now, this year alone: we have American Eagle, Air India, the Bangladeshi military jet, and today the small Russian flight. not to mention several serious incidents and also small fatal plane crashes. not to counting several major air accidents/incidents in 2024 too.

I believe there's something going wrong here in aviation industry, resulting the overall safety deficiency. but again, my beliefs here is still kinda unproven. I read online discussions about this, but what I read, peoples on that industry can only says "we try our best".

Hillary Clinton is bisexual, leaning lesbian, and was having an affair with Anthony Weiner’s wife.

It fits a lot of the behavior and side comments of people close to the situation, including the email scandal and his behavior at the time. But I have no real information and never expect to.

I believe in my own ignorance.

Aliens. There's got to be more than just us in this insanely huge universe. It's statistically impossible that in such a huge place there's only one life form out there that's capable of making credit scores and movies. Plus, with all the UFO stuff in the news these past few years I really think that something is hiding in the shadows and one day something will blow the lid off. Maybe tomorrow or 50 years from now but I think something will happen that will answer the question "Are we alone?"
