I either phrased it vaguely or you've completely missed my point.
I made the claim that saying higher openness to change equals a greater communion with reality is not correct. Some inertia is necessary, maybe quite a lot, but it's certainly not the case that the people most willing to change are more connected to reality.
I'll make a more direct argument: you should be committed to your knowledge and experience, not to your views in themselves. Your views should always be the product of a holistic consideration of your knowledge and experience. If your knowledge and experience continue to be consistent with your current views, then you will continue to hold your current views whether or not you consider the views in themselves somehow sacred. At no point in time does increased attachment to your current views in themselves ever help you reach a better conclusion. "Inertia" is a description of the phenomenon by which you discount or ignore knowledge and experience in favor of maintaining the status quo of your current set of views.

There is a U.K version of The Office?
The UK version is the original, the US show is based on it

Specifically more openness to change, as in more openness to revising and correcting your views, not more changing.
Which still isn't true. The more open you are to revision the lower your standards will be when you decide to make--what you think are--corrections. Some inertia is necessary.
It doesn't have anything to do with standards. If you are committed to a view in itself over reality you are doing it wrong. If you would rather have what is familiar and comfortable over what is true you are doing it wrong. To make a comparison, you cannot possibly tell me with a straight face that something like the widespread denial of evolution in the US is a case of some people having "higher standards". If you are unwilling to entertain the possibility that you are mistaken you have ceased to hold meaningful views, and willingness to entertain that possibility is not the same as being less certain.

Anyone that calls themselves a "Gamer Girl" is an attention whore seeking bitch that doesn't give 2 fucks about video games whatsoever.
Actual women that play games only want to play the fucking game. Gamer Girls just want attention from guys, and on top of that with the way girls are treated online in game lobbies and shit....
Fucking disgusting. Its one of several reasons why I don't play online or talk to anyone anymore with mics. People are savage.

which leaves them more resistant to change and therefore less responsive to reality
The corollary being that more change is equivocal to being more responsive to reality?
Specifically more openness to change, as in more openness to revising and correcting your views, not more changing. Also to respond to someone else, day to day practical knowledge (cooking, driving) and knowledge of modern political issues are not the same thing

A good understanding of the world is a moving target and the assumption that merely being older means you have attained a better understanding of the world as it exists today is baseless, not to mention that views tend to become more deeply entrenched over time which leaves them more resistant to change and therefore less responsive to reality

Made in the US but specifically emulating something Japanese is the highest form of weeb shit tbh
The show is actually in itself weeb which puts it above Japanese media which is in itself just Japanese.

/b/ is not a website, it is a single forum out of many on 4chan
ponies are not banned on 4chan
therefore your comparison is invalid
Actually there is a global rule on 4chan banning mlp.
There are only certain, very cancerous boards that do not have this rule, and exist purely as containment.
Our one exception board could be anarchy.
15. All pony/brony threads, images, Flashes, and avatars belong on /mlp/. This is not what a site-wide ban looks like. You wouldn't tell me videogames are banned on sep7 because they belong in the gaming forum.
