Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

    People’s beliefs are intrinsically linked to personal Identity, and can therefore almost never be rational.

    Then again: ‘reason’ itself does not exist. Sure, there’s game theory, science, the scientific method and all that - but science is usually only followed when there’s something to be gained economically, or strategically. And game theory also cannot account for irrational behavior.

    Most of the time, people just follow their gut feelings, and do whatever feels right. So it helps to have a sense of humor when debating politics.
