Wish I knew how to read mayan. That’d be badass.

You are acting like we didn’t fight megafauna to extinction with sticks.

You guys are acting like you’d love through this or come out completely in harmed. I already agreed you be mained and could die afterwards.

I get that. Maybe “most” is overstating it for humans as well. But I think you are forgetting choking the thing out. Saying its 10 feet long is misleading. There’s a lot of tail and average size is not 300lbs. That’s max. Average is like 150.

I think if you can avoid getting bit in the neck, you have a chance.

I feel like you and the meme are over estimating komodo dragons. It would probably maim you and infections could definitely kill you after but I feel like most adult humans, if in a life or death struggle, would come out on top.

Is it the god of an organized religion? Do you call yourself a believer in that religion even if you don’t “support” it?

Which God? There are thousands. Judeo Christian God? Yeah you support the degradation of society. Doesn’t matter which denomination. You want to tell me how you can have a personal connection with someone else’s hallucination?

Your belief in the organization legitimizes dangerous and corrosive beliefs. It legitimizes the power structure that oppresses. It legitimizes the act of turning off your brain. Your adherence to its rules legitimizes even it’s more rabid and extreme flanks.

You cannot participate in organized religion without harming society.

Incorrect.

But those do not include organized religions that have holy books written about ancient hallucinations.

Spiritualism is fine (generally) but it can still lead to delusional thinking. As in, verifiably false conclusions.

If you can look around at the results of allowing religions to dominate society for thousands of years and tell me that you think it’s going well, or even that we have a good chance of surviving the century as a species, then I don’t think you are a fully functioning human being.

I don’t know what the objective truth of the world is. But what I do know, is that that truth has never been ordained to earthly man by a burning fucking bush or whatever the fuck your particular religion dictates.

Arguing over interpretations of the hallucinations had by uneducated people thousands of years ago is not just pointless, it promotes a level of ignorance worship that is highly corrosive to a functioning society.

Not antisemitism. Anti theism.

Fuck all of your gods into the fucking earth.

Respectfully to you, fuck that.

I don’t hate Jews specifically, but fuck every single religious person. I am done with it. How many time do we need to see genocides or wars or just bombings that are solely motivated through religious indoctrination? You may say that they are misinterpreting the words of the Lord or whatever horseshit, but as far as I am concerned every interpretation is exactly as valid as the next because it is all make believe nonsense.

Everyone is playing pretend and then get upset when some people use that to steer the “play” into FUCKING MURDER!

MAYBE STOP PLAYING PRETEND EVERY FUCKING DAY YOU FUCKING MORONS!

If anyone says that their worldview is shaped by their religious beliefs, it is my view that they are a danger to the public should they hold public office.

Every. Single. Time. I don’t care what those beliefs are or what your motivations are. Religions are fucking toxic in every iteration.

Beautiful man.

It is evolving in the direction that eventually ONLY companies will be people. ONLY companies will have rights.

We must dissolve every single one of them and burn their boards as an offering to the gods of nature. I am begging all of you. Look inside yourselves and help me.

Wrap around and put in a plastic bag for best results in my experience. No bag necessary though, it will still last a while.

Man I wish this were true. Love cuddling, but damn. Depression got hands.

THE PANOPTICON

The main hang ups I see, is the group that determines what counts as loss and how much loss each thing has. These would be the points of attack where the powerful would seek to undermine trust/effectivity/accuracy and manipulate this new system for themselves. There would need to be rigorous safeguards in place to prevent such perversions.

That said, I like the planned economy aspect but I also feel like it could be used quite well with a smaller scale, more anarchistic society of loosely interconnected groups.

He WAS human. Then he chose to abandon it. He could choose to recover it, but it would be hard to convince anyone of your moral changes.

Any human could do what he did and abandon humanity, but no human could do the things he did and remain human.

What does it mean to you, to dehumanize someone? What is materially different about feeding an evil human who has done incalculable damage to the world into a meat grinder, vs doing so with the same person but this time, you feel bad about it because they were a human too?

I agree, we shouldn’t label groups of people as good or bad if they have no mechanism to move between groups. But if you think for a second that I will regard fascists as anything more than the ravenous, hate filled maggots they are, you are mistaken. They chose to give up their humanity and they could just as easily choose to regain it. Until then, they are not human to mem
