@dopple @autistikai no i am with dopple on this one. nobody is empirically cute; cuteness is an attribute defined by the reaction of another. we each "are cute" in the perceptions of those that find us so. dopple's act of finding you cute means that you are, irrefutably, cute

@myconidiosyncracy @dopple@cryptid.industries that's as may be; however, the act of finding someone cute is not, in itself, an assumption about that person. and it is the assumption which contains falsehood.
@myconidiosyncracy @dopple@cryptid.industries in which case there is nothing about it that is inherently false. as a subjective statement, then, in the absence of objective falsehood, there is no way to rationally determine whether it is true or not; at which point, it is down to individual discretion and cannot (realistically) be debated
@autistikai @dopple okay i can agree with this i've found some very strange things cute
@myconidiosyncracy @dopple@cryptid.industries im very strange things
@autistikai @dopple but it is not an assumption? it is a reaction? it is not a statement about who they are, it is a statement about a reaction to some manner of way they are percieved. even the perception itself can't really be false; it's a gut reaction to an attribute of a person. the attribute may have different implications in a different light, but it is still the result of the Cute Person's existence
