Simon @simplesimon77.bsky.social · 04/12/2025Theism is just an ignorant appeal to pre-existence in favour of understanding the emergence of complex properties. 010
Reposted by SimonScott Santens @scottsantens.com · 01/12/2025Let's assume for a second that universal basic income would lead to more men playing video games. Is that a worse outcome than working for ICE or in prisons? Is it even bad to play? The reality is that everyone should have the freedom to not do evil work, by having their basic needs met as a right. 78822

Simon @simplesimon77.bsky.social · 01/12/2025It's so insane how such a childish idea (rating girls online) became the toxic shitfuck of a mind poisoning platform it is today. It's also quite a stain on humanity that this bollox is worth so much when it provides absolutely no value to peoples lives. 000
Simon @simplesimon77.bsky.social · 01/12/2025#Atheism is not a worldview that a person needs to adopt. It is simply removing the lens of theism and seeing the world for what it is, not what religious people believe it is.media.tenor.coma shirtless man wearing glasses in a roomALT: a shirtless man wearing glasses in a room 130

Simon @simplesimon77.bsky.social · 01/12/2025It must be so confusing for theists to reconcile science (evolution) with their religious beliefs As an atheist, I have never had that problem. I just read up on the latest scientific discoveries & think "oh wow, that's interesting..what could this lead to..?" I'm so glad I do not have that issue 110

Simon @simplesimon77.bsky.social · 28/11/2025It makes no sense to expect any atheists definition of religion to fully satisfy every religious persons definition. 000
Simon @simplesimon77.bsky.social · 28/11/2025This is just silly. Atheists are not all the same. My atheism was just the recognition that all deities are imaginary. It says nothing about my character. 010

Reposted by SimonKurt Busiek @kurtbusiek.bsky.social · 25/11/2025I remember having a UBI. It was called “living with my parents,” and I had all my food/shelter needs covered, plus free access to a (shared) TV, music, books, a library card, cars I could borrow and more. I still worked drudge jobs, because I wanted to buy lots of comics and take girls to movies. 1032380

Reposted by SimonScott Santens @scottsantens.com · 25/11/2025This is also why universal basic income is such a good idea. Not only would it save money on the high costs of poverty, but it would grow GDP and reduce the costs of healthcare by reducing stress and improving physical and mental health. 416760
Simon @simplesimon77.bsky.social · 25/11/2025Our gov are committed to following the U.S. down the path of monetising every aspect of daily life. They are cheap whores. 110

Reposted by SimonRyan ⚾️🌪️ @5dogwooddrive.bsky.social · 25/11/2025One of my “wokest” beliefs is that if you improve the standard of living, give everyone a basic income and healthcare, shelter and good public transportation, you’d have less speeding. I seriously think a lot of speeding is born from a five times removed fear of “if I lose this job, I will starve.” 55212
