The world would be so much better if they stopped being so concerned with what other consenting adults are doing in private.

You have just figured out 40% of GOP insanity right there.

“How does he get to be a pretty woman when I cant? Well I’ll show him!” (the misgendering was intentional and hypothetical to make a point, mods pls)

I think the more complete question is: Is sexual repression common among conservatives the root of their infantile lashing out against LGBTQ+?

And if I were there for Diogenes’s chicken caper my eyes would have been a-rolling…

Philosophers of that era spend a lot of time drunk.

I mean who the fuck dies from laughing to death at a donkey eating figs?

Science is only one facet of life where definitions are important, and arguably not even the most daily impactful.

Also science is one of the few arenas with any real interest in a rigorous epistemic framework so that same concept of advancing definitions doesn’t work with social values, political situations, and most media where definitions are changed or co-opted for convenience and leverage rather than objective rhetorical value.

Pretending they do leads to things like ‘we will become more progressive over time as a society’ being accepted as truisms of human nature instead of the long-term efforts of hundreds of thousands of highly motivated and violently targeted individuals working to better the world for people they will never meet.

So yes, rigorous definitions in science is important, and thankfully we have developed many useful frameworks to ensure that no matter where in the world scientists share knowledge that it can be held to certain standards of rigor and objectivity

Literally no other facet of life has that same kind of special protection.

there is no definition that someone can’t fuck up, that’s the point of this exercise, not to find a perfect definition

But as usual 70% of you miss it

It wasn’t funny when Diogenes did it and it isn’t funny now but it keeps getting reposted anyway and we have to pretend it is

And here we are just politely disagreeing while these living shitstains destroy our lifestyles…

What we NEED is fire and shouting, not memes and sarcasm

What you feel is irrelevant, FROM makes exclusively streamer content now. Night Reign sealed that

You no longer need to just git regular gud, now you need to git speedrunner gud

And they aren’t backing down from it, Shadow of the Erd Tree proved that

Even if he is removed from office after an unprecedented midterm, he has already fucked our country for 3 generations

Hope all you ‘genocide joe’ assholes feel really shitty about now

And I am aware of zero of them so welcome to my blocklist unhelpful person

Not that anyone cares this is almost impossible to read on desktop

our playground had those chunks of recycled truck tire rubber, so kids pelted you with carcinogens

No, being a selfish asshole is instinctive for humans. Being egalitarian is what must be taught

There are several peer-reviewed studies that show neurotypicals rate even just the TRANSCRIPT of autistic people’s speech as 30% less favorable across all social classes and segments.

And worst of all: the subjects couldn’t even tell why they did it, they literally hate us instinctively.

wow that’s ridiculously naive

Because activist regressive mods made their way into nearly every 50501 public form, including Lemmy months ago

Got a permaban for calling out bot activity for the first time on the main instance, so fuck them and everyone involved. Their fault for not doing their jobs
