  • If you’d prefer to whine instead of attempting to solve the problem

    Do you genuinely believe people who eat cilantro regularly haven't already naturally done what you've said... or did you genuinely think offering up exposure therapy to someone on Lemmy memeing about how shit cilantro tastes would be good genuine advice... then clutch your pearls despite everything I've typed so far lol?

  • There are no inherently good or bad flavours

    X is in the eye of the beholders are the worst.

    You can fool yourself into thinking shit tastes like sugar all you want but subjective reality and the reality your brain perceives should not be conflated lol.

  • Women are Bees. Men are Birds. Arrhenotoky OP.

    Of the 60,000 bees in a hive, almost 99% of them are female! Female honey bees, or worker bees, make all of the decisions in the hive and do all of the work. There are a couple hundred male bees in a hive, but they don't do much but sit around and eat food.

  • Bernie Sanders forgives nobody. Bernie Sanders firmly endorsed Biden in 2020 after dropping out. Never bothered running now. And endorsed Hilary in 2016 just like she would've done for him.

    It's nobody's fault except rich oligarchs who made sure media didn't cover him as much as others so pitiable non-voting, progressive, or moderate working class didn't know who was also great. Because Hilary would've been one of the best politicians on record to be President of the USA despite 20 years of smear campaigns effecting even the most progressive of us despite how much they'd like to think they weren't.

    In the end a large swath of our population is at the whimsy of media at no small fault to republicans destroying public schools and oligarchs making even Lemmings think Democrats are a monolith that doesn't INCLUDE THE PROGRESSIVE PARTY.

    It was Obama. Bernie was going to win. Obama called up Buttigieg and Klobuchar and told them to drop out in order to consolidate the non-Bernie vote around Biden. They did as they were asked.

    You mean Hilary or in 2020 when Bernie firmly supported Biden after dropping out, and still does?

  • So here's the thing... I said a "crow is a grackle." Is it in the same family? No. No one's arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies memes, I am telling you, specifically, in science, everyone calls the Grackle of Judgement a Crow. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing. If you're saying "birb family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of The Word, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to birb is the words. So your reasoning for calling a crow a grackle is because scientist people "call the black ones grackles?" Let's get ravens and jackdaws in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. This grackle is a crow and a member of the meme family. But that's not what you said. You said this crow is a grackle, which is true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't. It's okay to just admit you're right, you know?

  • So here's the thing... You said a "jackdaw is a crow." Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that.

They're not the same thing. If you're saying "crow family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens. So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people "call the black ones crows?" Let's get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said.

  • Because contributing in a utopia means living the shared experience by not hurting others.

    A human system short of severe forced genetic manipulation will always require a visible way of showing that you've contributed.

    That could mean making art all day. That could mean saying Hi to Grandma. It could mean getting a basic stipend for not being a criminal who hurts others.

    Regardless, there will be a way to tell you who's done more and who hasn't. It doesn't have to be money. It can be social credit ala China or more likely money just like it is now. That person WILL be selected to do something before the person in the basement doing nothing but synth-heroin. There will be a way to show to others around you that you are verifiably more deserving of something than another person is just through that fact that we live on a planet, solar system, or galaxy with finite resources and more importantly, finite time, and you've contributed unselfishly.
