Insanity

Porn should be illegal for the same reason

> It's not remotely close to being the best we can do

"We" can't do anything at all. We are modern day peasants, and we will accept what the regime tells us to accept

Decent people are in the "stealing is wrong" camp

There is also Terasology - a Minecraft-like voxel game with fancy graphics: https://terasology.org/

Heroin, fentanyl, methamphetamine and even cannabis are mind destroying substances. You can't be seriously proposing the government legalise these things as a solution to homelessness?

People respond to incentives. If you make something more available you will get more of it. Every. Single. Time.

Conservative here. We don't want to go "back" to anything - we reject the Whig history notion of linear history entirely. Rather there are things we want, and things we don't want, and enormous income taxes is decidedly one of the things we don't want.

OK... so you have no solution then. Maybe sit down an let someone else try to fix this mess.

You can't change human nature. Hierarchy is inevitable. All you'll do is replace explicit hierarchy for a covert implicit hierarchy, because most people are natural minions who will look for someone to take charge.

No. It will never be time to stop taunting lying hack journalists.

In olden times we had the village stocks, and tar and feathering. In 2023 "learn to code" is the best we got.

What views? My wife and I agree with each other. She is a fantastic woman, and we have two beutiful children who we love more than we ever thought possible.

What more could a man ask in life?

3 days ago San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors, which claims that crime is down in the city, had to disband their meeting because their internet connection was vandalized.

But we're not more prosperous. Most families couldn't afford to have a stay-at-home parent even if they wanted to.

Women have simply had servitude to the corporate machine packaged up as some kind of freedom. To say this represents any form of progress is delusional.

Make sure you teach her to reject feminism as we are teaching ours to.

Manufacturing a pseudo-marxist class war between the sexes is utterly insane.

You can't be serious

The news hacks bear significant responsibility for many of the problems western society currently faces. They're not going to save either men or women.

The birth rate has fallen off a cliff. The rate of family formation falls lower and lower.

Older millennial women are coming to terms with the reality that they will likely never have children.

Gen Z women are still young enough to engage in extreme promiscuity via the dating apps, without yet feeling the consequences.

This isn't going to end anywhere good.

> My ideals are very egalitarian, I'd love to see a world in which men and women are equal and living in harmony.

But we're not equal - by definition. We're diverse and complementary.

What is it that drives the ravenous appetite of liberalism to flatten all diversity out of the world into a homogenous mass of goo?

Given the amount of suffering reported in the article, its very telling how little sympathy the author has for those it reports on.

The author champions an ideology that is doing immense harm, but the author never stops to examine their beliefs.

Remember that what is bad for men is also bad for women, especially because women are innately hypergamous - wishing to marry across or up status hierarchies.

At some point a young woman will want to find a man she can respect to marry.

But the penny hasn't dropped with the author. Maybe the great achievements of feminism aren't all they are cracked up to be. How can they be? - when the world they have relentlessly demanded is making both men and women so desperately lonely and unhappy.

We're very sorry for suspecting that one of the large number of thugs in downtown San Francisco - a situation created by Liberal policing policies - might have hurt someone.

Noone asked you to summarise, especially when it involves straw manning and casting ad hominems.

My own mother had 5 vaccine doses, still got COVID and now has myocarditis.

They'll need that to combat all the myocarditis brought on by the COVID vaccines

A CMOS chip doesn't contain any capacitors. DRAM is made of capacitors, and thus has a radically different structure.

People can talk about whatever they want.

You don't get it. None of this is about money. Just punishing enemies and rewarding friends.

Elon Musk is more popular than Burger King. It would be in their interests to associate themselves with him.

But that's not what this is about

Ahh yes, I'll run out to my local book seller right now. Except that wouldn't be necessary if your conspiracy theory held up to any scrutiny. The oppression would be unabiguous and deliberate feature of daily life. We would see as a fact in every day life, as for example, in the case of the Yazidis.

> You guys? Who do you mean by that?

Feminists.

> I use that language because these things happen on the socio-cultural level and are perpetuated indirectly through norms.

Belief in patriarchy is superstitious in nature. The patriarchy is everywhere, and nowhere. Its a global conspiracy. It is composed of powerful men and all men and all people both men and women and no-one all at once.

In this way, the patriarchy is unfalsifiable.

When speaking about the patriachy, feminists use the passive voice to tap-dance around having to make any specific claims otherwise they would be immediately falsified.

OK so there's nothing to fix, then.

It is cultural norms- of women. Making choices. In the real world.

It's simply women's revealed preference.

Right- but all of those criteria are highly subjective. And even the question of why these goals are important versus any other concerns is subjective.

Dress is form of self expression - intrinsicly so.

Rationalism is absurd, and this is a great example of why.

Humans almost never do anything on a purely rational basis. Everything we do is directed by subjectivity, emotion, aesthetics etc. - it's better to be honest about this and embrace it, rather than fooling one's self that one's aesthetic preferences are anything more than subjective.

There's nothing particularly rational about this.

Like so much or modernity, it's just a set of aesthetic preferences dressed up in the mantle of rationalism.
