  • Jim Crow laws

  • I see your point but what I was trying to do actually is highlight the fact the legislation and enforcement was literally done by Confederate veterans, especially in MS, AL, AR, LA, and somewhat in GA (and other states). Enforcement was carried out by both state and non-state actors, the non-state actors having backup from the state (police, National Guard, and military), which is exactly the situation in occupied Palestine today.

  • Good point, especially considering the Bantustans and checkpoints Israel has made in Palestine.

  • Capitalism is all about making the gains go to one group of people and the liabilities go to another, often unrelated group of people. Animal agriculture and fossil fuels are clear examples of that principle. I agree with hihnakukko, the intended people are profiting immensely.

    Plus getting paid a wage or depending on a profit is for plebs. It's all about stock options and bonuses.

  • The people who protest against the Palestinian Genocide would be the same people who protested against the Holocaust.

  • I think wewbull is saying they would have to expend a lot of energy to have that kind of thought 🤭

  • Lmao I like this response. Does it mean that reality is inherently evil?

  • Hey, check this out, you might find it interesting. From Parenti's Contrary Notions:

    If what passes for objectivity is little more than a culturally defined self-confirming symbolic environment, and if real objectivity—whatever that might be—is unattainable, then it would seem that we are left in the grip of a subjectivism in which one paradigm is about as reliable (or unreliable) as another. And we are faced with the unhappy conclusion that the search for social truth involves little more than choosing from a variety of illusory symbolic configurations. As David Hume argued over two centuries ago, the problem of what constitutes reality in our images can never be resolved since our images can only be compared with other images and never with reality itself.

  • Sure, objective morality is the belief that certain actions are inherently right or wrong, regardless of individual opinions or cultural beliefs, that moral truths exist independently and can be universally recognized. The second question I haven't the slightest idea, but it would be interesting to find out.

  • I don't have a position, I was asking a question.

  • the world doesn’t even have objective morality

    Deductions based on subjective information got you here. Or did you objectively observe (through, for example, objective experimentation) that there is no objective morality?

    That's what therapygary was trying to tell you, but not sure why they expected your subjective experience to realize the contradiction it itself is based on, lol.

  • Making a meme where your position is in the ‘right’, doesn’t make it true or even sensical.

  • Great points, I like it. Someone else pointed out that perhaps there's no objective morality, but perhaps another explanation is that there are no individuals, that's why it seems like that.

  • Hmm, that's a weird opinion. What are you assuming "my position" is?
