And made a shit ton of money bringing laughter to slavers while we work ourselves to death and suffer from having a conscience. We really do need to get together and figure out how to actually start changing things without self imploding. Evil is very much winning.

A rising tide drowns those who can’t swim.

Or the PC market existing.

No, it doesn’t indicate that. It only shows that cortisol is present in both, it doesn’t conclude anything about the subjective experience. You can’t even say ‘pain’ is what the lobster experiences, or what the nature of lobster experience even is. Even humans don’t all feel pain the same way, some even enjoy the experience.

The presence of cortisol does not mean that the experience of pain is equitable between humans and lobsters.

But their feelings!

The same? That’s a completely unbelievable conclusion to reach. The priorities of some people seems like mental illness to me.

How about you ship with it off by default and users can choose to turn it on? No? That won’t serve your corporate goals, will it?

They don’t even have any respect for their own.

We could have been done with the focus if you had the justice department do their fucking job years ago and prosecute the pedophiles and rapists that are in the files…

No mention of what behavior they are talking about, misogyny is a pretty wide and often vague subject. It’s almost like we’re not supposed to know the details so we can’t decide for ourselves if the behaviors need ‘correcting’ instead of taking their word at a claim of misogyny alone.

The healthiest thing is to learn good behaviors organically from the people and culture around you, not from a classroom.

We gonna have a class for girls on the difference between romance stories and real relationships?

Just gaming the system. That he still has to game it and isn’t able to simply ignore it is encouraging.

Just be a part of a group who are trying. That’s it. Nobody needs to action hero a solution with a fist fight finale.

Americans do not take the situation seriously. They either think they have no power to personally fix it, so contributing to any effort is pointless, or that it’s just more of the same politics as before and can’t tell the difference. They are encouraged to stay out of the way because they are the only force that seems to be capable of stopping it at this point.

Once Trump and the GOP destroy the framework of power the constitution defines, there are no rules anymore, only power, and the constitution really does mean nothing. The relationship America built with the world since WW1 will be over and won’t return as democratic nations can not remain interdependent with a fascist America. America will be another authoritarian regime using violence as the solution to every problem, including domestic problems. Those problems will only increase because an authoritarian leadership is functionally incapable of managing a non-authoritarian system. America will transition, painfully and violently, to a fascist state and the dream that was America will be dead. All at the hands of a TV show personality and the generations raised by TV, which is both sad and painfully American.

Edit: Not enough Americans…

Another one bites the dust. Goodbye democracy.

Does the cousin have a campaign to pay his bribe so he doesn’t die, too?

Why would the rules of reincarnations be subject to any laws of man? How is it that Beijing could possibly exert control over metaphysical powers? To suggest so, proves the speaker does not believe in reincarnation and should be ignored on the subject, no?

No authority greater than Xi Xing Ping is absolute authoritarianism.

This is an accepted part of the economy. Our leaders have decided us dying for private profit is fine. Now add up all the accepted deaths per year from every product and service and see how many of us are sacrificed for profit.
