Ignoring the obvious joke you missed. If someone being a little rude is enough to make you completely give up on your ethical/moral stance, you need to grow a spine dude .
If a gay person is an ass to me i dont decide to become homophobic and blame it on them.
A well worded nuanced take on Lemmy? Where am I?
Its so dumb. “Human nature” according to who? Ignoring that appeal to nature is a logical fallacy its also just…fake. humans are social obligate primates. We naturally form small communal groups. We’ve interacted cooperatively and altruistically since before we were anatomical humans. If capitalism is human nature why did it take 19,700 years for anatomically modern humans to invent it. Because for one thing, commerce is not the same as capitalism. And even commerce is somewhat recent. Most of human history we didnt barter, pre-money barter economies are a myth. We had “gift economies” where we simply helped and gave each other what we needed. Without explicitly demanding a return but understanding others will help you out the same when you need it.
Props for having an unpopular opinion. I think its interesting a self proclaimed anarchist has such an incredibly totalitarian belief. Also one that sounds rooted in a deeply right wing/bigoted style of thinking. “Men are inherently violent so we need to castrate them against their will to fit our view” wouldnt the much more logical conclusion be to try and change culture to one that discourages toxic masculinity? Rather than believing in a massive violation of human rights
Not really. Usually its just the Grimm version. There’s no such thing as an “original” version to a folk tale. Or i suppose once there was but it was gone the second it was retold. That’s the nature of oral tradition. There were countless retellings of the various fairy tales with different endings than the ones The Grimm Brothers went with in their books.
Kinda funny we’ve recreated something Berbers (and other african peoples) have learned thousands of years ago. That wearing very lightweight fabric over your body is useful against the sun
There’s nothing at all wrong with eating fake meats. i do all the time. Thats not the point i was making
