If I favorite your toot, it doesn't mean that I feel your toot is my favorite toot. It means that I'm letting you know that I saw your toot, probably read it, and maybe even liked it (but not necessarily).

Retro SciFi of the Week…
AI: Artificial Intelligence (2001)
Like last week’s movie, this is an epic that spans a period of time. It also has a theme of liberty and justice, among many other topics. The production quality and special effects are among the very best.
Nearly all of the actors do a tremendous job in this film. Haley Osmont gives an amazing performance for a child actor. It also stars William Hurt, who has appeared in many great science fiction films and who just recently passed away.
Ironically, for a film that deals with the topic of justice, this one has significant racial bias, which is all too common in Hollywood movies. Otherwise it’s a great, classic scifi with lots of futuristic technology and special effects.

Tell everyone what you see!
Ensure the liberty of all;
Self autonomy is a must.

If Trump wore a jumpsuit, what color would it be?
>"That human urge to feel superior and roll your eyes at everything."
I've found that this is often due to a weak ego. Psychologically if someone feels inferior, or they are unsure of themselves, they might act this way.
I least that's how it works with me. 😅
I don't understand what is being said in this video. Closed captions would be nice. It sounds like maybe...
"Vance, Leo", or
"Bounce, Neon"
I can't make it out.
I understand. If you know the answer, but you are not sure if it is correct or not, then that is different than knowing for sure.
>"My view would get changed for a question If I knew the answer."
Even if your conjecture was the answer?

Lately, things just don't seem the same
Acting funny, but I don't know why
Excuse me while I kiss the sky…

Knowledge. If you knew everything, you could get unlimited anything – energy, time, anything at all.
Runner up choice… unlimited second chances.

Plunge
It had been so long
since I’d done this,
but they were egging me on…
Peers are motivating, sometimes helpful
they give you courage
but mostly it’s good times and playful.
Okay, ok, I’ll do it, I’ll do it
Take a breath, take a plunge, let go
Exhilaration, motion, ouch!… Now pain go away.
Well, that’s the last time I’ll listen
to you peers of wisdom. No, no.
Why make a playground slide out of wood anyway?

My reply was not a joke.
I reread your post 3-4 times before my first reply to try to understand it. I have great difficulty understanding your toots sometimes, but I try anyway.
The headline of your post was: "Clever but racist people..."
So that is what I thought it was about.
My reply was about responding and speaking up, within the context of bullying/racism, so you can read it as that and maybe it is useful.
Yes, people should participate even if others don't like what they say or how they say it.
