    I dismissed houses because they’re inanimate objects that we can literally break down and turn into something else. That thing would no longer be a house. And, if I DID think all houses were inherently safe, then that change would mean that I no longer think it’s a fundamentally safe thing. There’s no gotcha here.

    I’m tired of the rest of this conversation, we’re clearly at foundational differences in our world views.

      Are you tired of thinking of all of the synonyms for a house that prove your first paragraph incorrect?

      Our “foundational difference” relies on you actively ignoring the world around you and insisting that all humans are the same no matter what, and if they get a tattoo or hold open a door then they are no longer a human.

      Not a strong or defensible foundation for your worldview.

          It’s merciful that you think of your self-Imposed limitations that way, but try to bear in mind for the future that with your eyes closed, you can’t really tell what’s going on around you.
