Department of War. We’re gonna take their oil. You’re next Colombia.

Just some of the very on-the-nose honest statements from Trump regime

It would be one thing if they were just making a hyperbolic statements as a joke, but they have doubled down in calling everyone else liars for having different tastes than them - and even murderers now, using their “dead friends” (presumably from alcoholism) to try and bludgeon their way to a pointless debate victory. Very redditor coded behavior

Actual baby brains in here without object permanence or theory of mind lmao

Having to explain the difference between subjective tastes and objectivity to children who haven’t yet developed theory of mind and think their immediate visceral reaction is fundamental truth is kind of hilarious. My five year old niece is more mature and understanding of other mindsets and tastes than the people in this thread

Yeah they are dead because people forced them to like the taste of beer? What a stupid and infantile attempt at an argument. Alcoholism is a disease with a lot more complex causes than the taste of a single type of alcohol being acquired. Alcoholics don’t get drunk because they like the taste, they do it because they have an addiction which fills a void, is used to cope or deal with despair.

Now tell me, do you think your friends who tragically passed from addiction and disease and despair would appreciate being used by you as a bludgeon to win unrelated pointless online arguments? Don’t you think you are being wildly disrespectful?

You are so childish and ignorant

It’s valid to not like something. It’s not valid to say “they taste like shit” objectively and everyone else is wrong. This isn’t that complicated but you really want to justify your childish petulance and incuriosity as a virtue. You have a fundamental logical failure of mixing up subjective taste and objectivity, which is common among children who haven’t developed theory of mind.

Beer is good, this is so silly and childish of an outlook. People having personal tastes isn’t a misogynist conspiracy it’s a fact of life

Oh sorry, try it and then proclaim its objectively disgusting and everyone who likes it is lying - as you did in the top comment. That’s even worse. Goes from passive immaturity into full on chauvinism and childish behavior and disrespect.

Refusing to try other cultures is immaturity and petulance. Trying it once and then proclaiming it objectively disgusting and those who like it are liars is chauvinism and arrogance.

Yea only neurotypical people are capable of eating a variety of food or experiencing new cultures. You are so right

If white tourists visit my country and refuse to even try our food I will see that as an insult to our culture and very small-minded and immature of them, and most others see it that way too. It has nothing to do with being “neurotypical” it has to do with a willingness to step outside your own cultural bounds and experience other people’s perspectives and cultures

Appreciating a wider variety and depth of flavor is indeed sophistication. There’s no virtue inherent to being close minded about food, while the inverse is not true - being open minded and willing to try and appreciate new things and gain new acquired tastes is a positive trait. You sound like a tourist who goes to a new country and complains about the food being terrible because you don’t have the acquired taste. It’s just close-minded and chauvinistic to assume you are right and have the perfect pallet already and everyone else is just wrong and stupid for liking things.

It’s fine to try new things and dislike it and not personally enjoy something. It’s not ok to proclaim your taste as the objective truth of reality and mock and shame people who do like it, or to refuse to try new things.

It’s an acquired taste. Do you think people “delude” themselves into liking coffee and spicy foods too? Most people just need to drink a couple and they will begin to enjoy it as their pallet adapts and becomes more sophisticated
