@uru-annapace Its a metaphor, people use metaphors all the time as a way to explain things, its useful.

@uru-annapace Just because the VERY BEST athletes have bodies good their sport doesn't mean people with regular body types cant compete.

@uru-annapace By that definition literally everything is a freak show as the VERY BEST person in ANY field always has some kind of unique biological quirk that aids them in their field. But this doesnt apply to the vast majority of people who are in these fields, any of these fields.

@uru-annapace No no, what your doing isn't simply acknowledging that genes play a role in performance, what your doing is saying that genes are the MAIN thing that gauge performance, as the term "freak show" implies. Which like I said is not only untrue but disparaging to those who work hard their entire live without said special genes. The people that do this usually are just trying to downplay the accomplishments of athletes in an attempt to make them feel better about themselves which I find repulsive. I never denied genes played a role, I just don't think they play the most important role when it comes to a persons performance at the Olympics or sports, which is what "freak show" implies. You cant disrespect science, its not a person, its not something created by a single person, its just a way of measuring a world, a tool, not some ideology. Saying you can disrespect science would be like saying measuring something with your eyes is disrespectful to a ruler... And again, your complaining to me about something I didn't start. I wasn't the one who introduced the example of a fictional character. But even if I WAS the one who Began using a fictional character as an example, FUCKING SO WHAT? You do realize humans have been doing that for millennia right? Using fictional examples and peoples to be able to convey their point in a way that is easier to understand? Like seriously what is your problem with that? Do you not like hypotheticals at all? If so you must HATE math because it is FULLY of hypotheticals, science as well. I'm starting to suspect that you honestly just feel compelled to constantly over complicate topics as a form of gate keeping so that you feel superior for understanding a "complex" topic. However this kind of intellectual gate keeping isn't an indication of intelligence, quite the opposite actually. Even an idiot ;especially idiots; can make a topic more complicated than it is or needs to be. Its often those who are well versed in the subject matter that can simplify a complex topic into something that even an idiot can understand. That's what metaphors are for and I seriously cannot understand your aversion to them to this extent other than the aforementioned gate keeping theory. And even when I was referring to the bruce wayne example it had NOTHING to do with genes, it was completely about how a person circumstances effect their abilities and who they become.

@uru-annapace Fair, Friends 🙂

yes

@amai-w8f Yes yes we get it, your a lazy and don't like being reminded that you wasted your opportunities in life and like downplaying the accomplishments of others as just heretical gifts. Unfortunately this wont make your life any better.

@salazarreach1636 This is a blatant conspiracy theory at this point and I have no idea as to the purpose of it. If you want to believe beyond all reason all pro athlets use performance enhancing drugs and that said drug technology has gotten so good that they can easily hide those drugs in their systems from the examinations that take place. Then there is no way to change the mind of someone who isnt listening to reason in the first place. Like what would even be the point of testing said drugs concealability with athletes? Does your conspiracy theory suppose that athletics institutions some how have more advanced drug testing methods than the people who are making the drugs in the first place? Why wouldn't "big pharma" just test the drugs they make themselves instead of needing to go through the inefficient process of using athlete testing methods? What would even be the point of athlete drug testing if they are all on the drugs anyway? And what is this about them "using drugs before competition and then pausing after to hide the effects"? Do you not know when drug test take place and how long a drug can be detected in a person blood or urine? The theory makes no logical since.

@amai-w8f Truly a pathetic attempt at evading my statement. If anything it just confirms my suspicion since none of my statements can be construed as me projecting anything, only yours. And the fact that you are now trying to shift responsibility of your statements reveals your motives. So do us all a favor and stop talking about topics you know nothing about. No one wants to hear what a person like you has to say, stay in your lane.
1
@amai-w8f I very much did make plenty of arguments with my statements, you being incapable of responding to any of them is purely a reflection on yourself. You initiated with insulting remarks, thus I responded in kind. You talk about playing sports which leads me to believe EVEN MORE that you are one of those people who didn't have the self discipline to actually succeed in whatever sport you were playing and are now feeling jaded and resentful towards those who could achieve something through their effort and now you want to attribute their success to some biological advantage as a way of shifting blame away from yourself instead of recognizing your own incompetence, and thus feel the need to downplay the success of others to make yourself feel better. Its blatantly obvious and a textbook example of a wide variety of psychological issues. Its dishonest, childish, and honestly somewhat evil. So do the world a favor and just give up and stop talking, because no one cares, statistics already disprove your vapid assertion.

@amai-w8f What do you mean by that exactly? 🤔 Exactly what am I "coping" with ?

@ereristark425 Yes basically everyone has the ability to be come an athlete simply from working hard. That is quite literally how the human body works. And yes some people are better than others, that's irrelevant to becoming an athlete though. Hard work beats natural talent.

@Precipiceofwind It is 100% true

@Imbalanxd Being the best is succeeding but succeeding doesnt mean being the best.

@allisongross2946 a slight advantage is not the same as being a full on biological abnormality.
1
@allisongross2946 no, not every top level athlete has a biological advantage as I've already pointed out. Most are just normal people who have trained hard.
1
@allisongross2946 I do indeed have a reason to believe this as it is the most probable answer AND is backed up by data. What reason do you have to believe what you do? Envy ? Inferiority?
1
@allisongross2946 the biological data of most athletes. Height, weight, muscle mass, fat distribution, heart rate, reaction speed, ect ect.
1
@allisongross2946 literally none has the perfect skeleton for any sport... Literally no one makes a claim like this. The most people say is that basketball players are tall.
1
@allisongross2946 Being tall is not the end all be all. A slight advantage does not negate skill.
1
@allisongross2946 I WILL be taking your statements to their logical conclusion in regards to your reply to me under this specific comment section.
1
@allisongross2946 If by "biologically predisposed" you mean in good health then sure. Better health compared to the average person but its still not a biological extreme. And yes I have responded to this several times, re read.
1
@allisongross2946 I literally have, ALL you have to do is go read the comments in this very post and it would prove it too you but you wont, which proves to me that you are either dishonest or lazy. Ive alreayd answer all the repetitive ideas people like you have espoused here already.

@allisongross2946 Re read

@allisongross2946 "get a job" 🤣🤣🤣 really showing off your intelligence level here buddy. Seems like I was right and you really are just envious of successful athletes and feel the need to downplay their accomplishments by accusing them of being biological extreme. What ever helps you sleep at night buddy.

@allisongross2946 "making stuff up" crys the one making stuff up. Projection much?

The multiverse theory isn't real in the first place. The whole idea is based around a misunderstanding. The original equation used to try and understand subatomic particles said that the theory was wrong exactly because it created a multiverse. Kinda like how we know an equation is wrong if it allows for time travel.

Knowledge is power and private investors know this. Plenty of them think on the long term and try to get any advantage they can.
