The paradox of tolerance states that if a society is tolerant without limit, its ability to be tolerant is eventually ceased or destroyed by the intolerant. Karl Popper described it as the seemingly self-contradictory idea that in order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must retain the right to be intolerant of intolerance

You don't need to see someone who's incredibly disrespectful in order to know what someone who is respectful is. Similarly, you don't need to know hate to know love. This post was framed as saying without hate and malice people could not know respect and compassion. That entire premise is fundamentally flawed as people can know good things and bad things without having experienced the other.

You can know the color red without having ever seen the color blue. This is a false dichotomy

Do they? Have they ever? Have you ever even worked any service position?

If you had I doubt you would find them good for anything but shitty tips, racial slurs, outrageous demands, and the whole heard belief that the entire world revolves around themselves.

Bless the coming and going of Him.

May His passage cleanse the world.

May He keep the world for His people.

I've left better things over lesser issues.

I'm going to go on a different angle on this one and say that we are much tougher on sexual harassment. I feel like a lot of people from the 1950s who have grown up on pulp sci-fi like Flash Gordon could accept a lot of modern technology and the internet as basically just magic. To be fair is how a lot of modern people also accept it. But I don't think they would be able to process the move towards egalitarianism that we have taken.

That is not to say that modern society is egalitarian only that we have made good strides in achieving that aim.

Edit: Turns out Gordon is from the '70s, but other pulp sci-fi exist so my statement stands.

I can guarantee you that there is not a single person who would look at this symbol and know that it is the federverse symbol, the let alone whatever the hell a Lemmy is without having already known exactly those things.

This is a vanity project, nothing more nothing less.

This is aggressively adorable

My thoughts are mostly my implicit bias against machine automation, that giving over one's thinking to machines will only lead to you being controlled by the person who controls the machine.

I'm interested in kink, not crime.

Are there any spicier instances yet

That infact is a cat!

NSFW content is hidden by default, you need to view it with an account that allows NSFW content to see the porn. There is a lot, both in quantity and variety

1. Correct
2. Currently I do not believe so, the easiest way would be to make an account on nsfw, browse it, then subscribe with your other account when you find what you like
3. Not the I know of
