It's all just desperate attempts to look cultured and worldly. It's just a slightly less efficient equivalent to dumb Instagram sluts posting selfies on a beach.

This stuff disgusts me and makes me want to go full stemtard. Maybe become a Neoclassical economist just to piss people off.

Well, how do you then explain how people who were extremely good at evading cognitive bias still believed in God, such as people like Saul Kripke or Albert Einstein? I mean, for example, the extend of objectivity with which Einstein went in proving general relativity and in Einstein-Bohr debates is mind-boggling, and "Naming and Necessity" is perhaps the best argumented book of 20th century, yet both believed in "derived from cognitive biases" God.
Would you also state that bias evasion is as recent as popularization of atheism? This is clearly absurd.

Because shape of the god-freaking-damn Universe is something so trivial that it is not even worth considering, right?

A girl? On 4chan's science board? Bullshit nigga.

Is there a scientific reason why humans always seem to be automatically geared towards blaming the victim for having problems like mental illness, disability, being poor, getting burgled, getting raped and getting bullied? Because you notice this kind of behavior even at very young ages like nursery kids making fun of "that other kid".

Did humans genetically acquire the potential to be assholes or is this more of an environmental social construct?
