Is it authoritarian to say you shouldn't drive without a license? Is it authoritarian to say you shouldn't drink and drive?

"I don't know how to read"

So drag somehow thinks that believing in nothing is easier than believing in proven fact?

Drag is saying that depressed people should "just believe" which is much crazier than saying depressed people should "just believe in evidence".

People do not need to believe in what drag is saying without evidence, because that evidence exists, so they can just as easily believe in it WITH evidence.

No? I'm depressed, too.

Let me do the same stupid shit drag just did.

Is that your advice to depressed people who think life is hopeless? Belief in things without having real evidence?

My point is that drag came to the wrong conclusion.

Drag doesn't have to explain depression to me.

If Drag understood the evidence, then it sounds like the conclusion Drag should come to is not to baselessly believe in things without evidence, but rather to make a better use of context to rid dragself of blindness caused by anecdotal evidence.

Well, the problem with this line of thinking is that we do have empirical evidence that depressed people DO get better by making a huge effort to get better.

Drag had anecdotal evidence, which is incredibly weak evidence.

Drag may have had baseless belief in something and it worked out, but my point is, the evidence WAS available to support that point.

I'm sorry, do you think that non minorities are going to suffer in a way that is even close to the additional harm this is going to cause to minorities? Are you dumb?

Idk if this is the same guy, but iirc someone did an interview tell-all where they basically came clean and admitted to all the fucked up shit they helped their administration do.

So yeah, undoubtedly ew, but I'm guessing that's what they're talking about.
