  • This has precedent, remember the time they found Arabic flight manuals in the abandoned cars of the 9/11 perpetrators? Similarly these fighters had written notes on them in case they forgot what they were up to on the way there.

  • This isn't a court of law and I'm not arguing the statutes. I don't like unilateral censorship in any form and I'd be equally butt hurt if they banned a mod to include pronouns.

    Bear in mind we are both here because of the actions of a private corpo.

  • No I do not, no one should. Your comment is the correct way of disagreeing, downvote parades are not.

    Bear in mind I don't give a shit about pronouns or no pronouns, I am against the unilateral censorship of a mod.

  • You are more than welcome! The chapter is called Unification of Humankind for anyone else interested, here is a little excerpt:

    “Myths and fictions accustomed people, nearly from the moment of birth, to think in certain ways, to behave in accordance with certain standards, to want certain things, and to observe certain rules. They thereby created artificial instincts that enabled millions of strangers to cooperate effectively. This network of artificial instincts is called ‘culture’.”

  • Sharing, and believing in, fictions is how distilled units of information are efficiently passed down generations and is one of the bedrocks of our development as a species. This is what allows us to have laws and corporations and agreeing to drive on particular side of the road.

    Yuval Noah Harari covers this more eloquently in his book Sapiens. You would definitely dig the relevant chapters.
