No gods, no masters.

Plastering agricultural land with parking lots and suburban sprawl is a crime against humanity. This wasteful land use needs to end.

Thanks to social media, youth unemployment, an uptick in asylum seekers, ballooning energy prices and oodles of nationalist right-wing cash, Macron is no longer the only politician with the regal ability to play Jupiter on TV. There are now a record 4,005 candidates running in the first round, with many fabled divinities to choose from.

There's your problem. Defund the rich.

If you don't want to be hated, don't murder whales. It's very easy, literally most people do it.

Please partake in the culture war, don't just let conservatives win by default.

The mass of fascism is the working class traitors. The petite bourgeoisie and those who pretend and desire to become that. Of course, they're going to get shafted later, by the rich fascists.

"The Southern Argument for Slavery"

Here: https://www.ushistory.org/us/27f.asp

Defenders of slavery argued that by comparison with the poor of Europe and the workers in the Northern states, that slaves were better cared for. They said that their owners would protect and assist them when they were sick and aged, unlike those who, once fired from their work, were left to fend helplessly for themselves.

NYT: https://www.nytimes.com/1859/01/19/archives/the-abolition-of-slavery.html

The "personal benefit" is a type of welfarist argument. As in the slave owners "gave them good lives" and that made it all OK.

“Their land is being invaded by illegal logging and drug-traffickers, so to save their lives they are spreading into other areas,” he said. “The Mashco Piro are facing genocide.”

The important part. This is literally self-defense.

Despite its controversial location, the company’s logging concession, held since 2002, is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), an international NGO that certifies that timber extraction is sustainable and ethical.

Of course. It's the "Forest Slayer Clowns".

This isn't simply "fundamentalism". It's culture. There are religions, less popular ones, in which the fundamentalists aren't mega assholes. Fundamentalist Jains, for example, are unlikely to do this kind of shit.

The problem here is the World religions combined, somewhat inevitably, with honor culture. Full article: Explaining the rise of moralizing religions: a test of competing hypotheses using the Seshat Databank

Some things are so horrible and evil that it's difficult to ridicule them, it requires a lot of creativity.

Carnism isn't one, carnism is an academic term, and carnist just means a proponent of carnism (it may be in some dictionaries already).

Obviously, these duel competitions should only be allowed between identical twins. Anything less is unfair and should be halted and shut down.

The farmers argued that banning the controversial dog meat from menus across the country would deprive them of their livelihoods.

All make this argument.

People have to decide if "livelihood" is the highest moral priority.

tl.dr.: driven by propaganda and a persecution complex or Jingoism

Israel’s path forward is unclear, and it will be influenced by a few issues. An increase in public pressure on Netanyahu may force him eventually to take responsibility for not preventing the Oct. 7 attack and resign.

Israel's dilemma is that you can't have both:

  • An ethnonationalist (ethnic apartheid) state.
  • Liberal democratic state with human rights and rule of law.

Pick one.

I’d rather go for the people responsible for it,

You can't due to the masses of people in denial of it who stand in between.
