  • Brilliant lecture, and it points out the reasons for fundamental differences in morality, but apart from calling things by different names (vide Alligator Auschwitz in this very post), which is a great succession, it doesn't give me much actionable advice.

    Still fascinating though - them you so much for posting it here! I want to listen to/read more things by him now!

  • Sure, that's definitely an option that would be healthier/easier for me personally, but can you really disengage when people in government build concentration camps and secret police force? I'm not even American or in America and it's just overwhelming...

  • One thing that really saddens me in all... this (gestures broadly at everything) is that I have no idea how to deal with people with no empathy, with people who think this is okay. I just really do not know what to say an how to say it.

    I've been raised with empathy. I knew even before going to kindergarten that it's more fun to share some of my toys with other kids because then we can all play together. I knew that doing nice things for others gives you that warm fuzzy feeling. I learned that helping people is GOOD.

    And I just don't know how to deal with people who have not. I don't know how to deal with people who will put other people in cages just because they look vaguely Latino, without due process. I don't know how to deal with people that cheer for that. I just don't know. How the fuck do I, do we, deal with people who have no empathy whatsoever? Not a rhetorical question by the way, I hope someone can explain it to me like I'm overly sensitive empathetic five-year old...

  • Trump just desperately wants to nuke something. Anything's fine, he just wants to drop a nuclear bomb on stuff. I mean, he was floating nuking a goddamned hurricane before.

    He's like a toddler that sees a big red button and just HAS to push it, because it's just there and it's so big and red and it will make things go boom!

  • Exactly - such labels would be ignored even more than the ones on cigarettes are, especially by the addicts. And it's so much easier to completely hide them too - adblockers already hide a lot of content people don't want to see, this would just become another line in the filter list so fast...
