At no point did I say that humanity is exempt.

I guess you could say I'm a compatabilist.

Your mind is a computer attempting to optimally fulfill several prerogatives which are determined primarily through evolutionary pressures. It is free to do this in the way it sees best and is free to adapt as the environment in which it operates changes, in the sense that it is not forced to override it's internal decisions and come to a different conclusion regarding how to act. I consider this to be free will. You may disagree, but that would be haggling over definitions, rather than facts.

Crucially, this definition is true regardless of whether the universe's course is predetermined or not. I personally don't think it is, because a good chunk of the universe is random and I find it hard to believe that that randomness was predetermined.

Perhaps the dogs see them too

The whole nationalist platform is horrible, cruel, and absolutely nonsense

I looked into it. Mother Jones was one of the outlets that critiqued the tone police following the house protests. I think it is best to take this post down.

"Moderation", maybe? The post implies that this applies to all immigrants, legal or not. Presumably they don't want to neuter all the legal workers, or do but can't say it.

There's extra messed up potential lying in the details!

Abortion is banned in this country, which nationalists like these fellows really like. This means that if these guys get more powerful, a migrant could get raped, forced to carry to term, and then get sterilized.

The main host is definitely at the very least sympathetic

I was trying to figure out who was Mia in the pic

Judging by the black flag and podcast, I presume she's an anarchist?

Mia is the ICE abolitionist, correct?

Ah, cool

If there's a planned economy, this is definitely how it should be.

The temp isn't fake

Oh we do, but the joke has long since outlived its funniness.

Kinda off-topic but Current Affairs is glorious.
