Which comes first, facts or opinions?

BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
Facts, undoubtedly, but it seems there's a recent trend of people branding themselves as no-nonsense facts-first straight shooters who are actually the complete opposite.

Today? Fear of offending someone comes first.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@FreeSpirit1 That, in tandem with fear of things that present no threat.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@FreeSpirit1 That's a really good point and a sad commentary on all of us.
SW-User
My opinion specifically.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@SW-User That's quite a bit of confidence. Is it real?
SW-User
First people have opinions , then come the facts and prove how stupid they are
SW-User
@BlueMetalChick everyone I know forms first their retarded opinions based on their faulty beliefs and even when later they learn the facts, they still stick to their opinion. Only the smart and wise people , about 1% of the whole population dont
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@SW-User And isn't it funny how the dumber their opinions and stronger their denial of facts, the louder they are about it?
SW-User
@BlueMetalChick I dont know. Maybe.
SW-User
It depends on the person doing the thinking.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@SW-User Yes. No. Let me know what additional questions you have.
SW-User
@MarkPaul None. I'm a reasonable person. Have fun.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@SW-User Yeah, but I don't see the facts to back up your opinion on that.

@LvChris In a way. The two are usually distinguished by the idea that agnostics aren't sure if there's a god, and atheists are certain. But in my mind, everyone is an agnostic because nobody knows if they're right. The most we can do is form a belief. Mine is that there's no god, but fuck, I could be wrong.

@LvChris Yeah that sounds a fair bit like what I believe. Because I obsess over people's painful lack of interest in the human itself, and prefer to look outside for sources of inspiration, I often find myself awestruck and appalled by how we can arrogantly pretend we know whether there is or is not a god.

"Feels" come before both these days.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@MethDozer Actually... no. I don't even know what that has to do with anything. Besides, I don't think paint actually peels. I mean... it's painted on. Are you thinking of wallpaper?
MethDozer · M
@MarkPaul No it peals, was just wondering for personal inquiry.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@MethDozer Personal inquiry? You can't keep a record of this. I mean, what for? I'm not worried... it's just that... well besides I don't see how paint can peel. I'm looking at the painted wall now and there's no way for it to peel. Why are you always making stuff up?

@djcam You can't "debunk" an opinion, but you can find fallacies in it.
