I think the more worrisome bit is that to them, the Boring Invincible Hero is the proper standard precisely because he’s (putatively) perfect. I don’t remember if this kind of national standard is on Umberto Eco’s list of ur-fascist traits.

Granted the BIH has a good deal of literary legacy, at least all the way back to Marduk (not sure why the Enuma Elish bothered to show him inventing those new weapons when he only needed his winds to defeat Tiamat...Did the poet forget to have the other Anunnaki use them to defeat Tiamat’s progeny?), and is probably more about overawing any rivals by proxy than actual artistry. Too bad, because I’m wondering if the Enuma Elish might have room for an Alternative Character Interpretation about who the actual villain is.

Not Tiamat. Not Apsu. Not Marduk.

Qingu, who helped start the whole conflict in the first place with his encouragement of Apsu and Tiamat to attack the Anunnaki, likely to get the Tablets of Destiny for himself. For even more fun, his name translates to “unspecialized worker”. The Greek of the same is “Demiurgos”...

Unless, as I suggested before, we catch the 32chan domain name first and set it up to be a haven for progressives, anarcho-socialists, and everything in between. Tankies not suffered. (Yes, you’ll need moderators, but that’s all but necessary to intercept fascists. Was 2chan moderated, if anyone knows?)

Considering this is on 16chan, I think they know. They just think they’re more clever this time around. Somehow.

Who’s up for snatching 32chan and turning it into a leftward-less-tankies haven before the fascists can take the domain?

Even with the rightward still suffusing the Democratic Party? Better to replace the Republican Party with the Socialist Party. (Better still to reshape elections outright to cease being First-Past-the-Post, so having more than two parties will actually be tenable.)

Lauren Boebert, US Representative for CO District 3 #fundie #wingnut #conspiracy

In a sense, the United States are one-party already, or rather one-government-philosophy. Democratic overtures towards anything that doesn’t overwhelming favor corporates and their investors beyond all else tend to run afoul of right-wing members like Manchin, who every now and then threaten to join the Republicans. This is pretty effective at quailing the Democratic party, it turns out. And they’re already rightward enough as-is that those like Ocasio-Córtez, even with their grudging acceptance of military intervention in places like Syria, still get lashed by them.

The nation will likely still be capitalist either way, so I’m not sure what foundation the complaint has.

Knowing how such ones are obsessed with God never changing from his primordial perfection, they’d probably be aghast at the idea that God would let his own language evolve. Suggest that English eight centuries from now would bear only some resemblance to current, and I’m confident they’ll be livid at the implication of God not maintaining absolute control of his “favorite” form of speech.

azakhan #racist #sexist

“Our women would rather”...? There’s one of the main foundations of your problem right there. Humans, regardless of gender, tend to dislike being treated as possessions/chattel. I know you’d prefer women to be authoritarian followers to a one, but that’s not in the offering. Your own kyriarchy also wants dispelling.

Granted that urine is typically pathogen-free, but it’s not exactly a good way to replenish lost minerals, especially since you’ll need still more than what was excreted.

I’ll also want to know if it’s universal in Ayurvedic medicine (read: are there any branches of that which don’t have such a high opinion of the stuff?). It’s also important to check the medicines of other early cultures. Kemet, Babylon, Hellas, Maya, China, and so forth. What were their views of urine re-intake?

Also make sure this isn’t a matter of exoticization; I do have a thought that the Sanskrit/Hindi words just sound more unusual, and thus somehow more profound, to you than the English and Latin that we’re immersed in. I’m interested to see which languages Indians most frequently deem exotic, and why. (Besides the myriad languages in India that each one questioned doesn’t happen to speak.)

Fritz Berggren #racist #conspiracy #fundie

Israel as a concept was conceived of mostly as a refuge for Jews who had reason to fear pogroms et al. Interestingly, Herzl didn’t think at first that it had to be Palestine—Alaska and Argentina, at least, were on the list, and securing permission for an enclave was held necessary. Later, unfortunately, he became influenced by Rhodes...

And even now, Israelis are divided over whether Israel should remain an officially Jewish state, let alone Hebrew-dominated. Note the use of “Hebrew”; there seem to be some who insist on treating Ethiopian Jews as second-class citizens, even though genetic research has proven common ancestry between the two groups. But the important point is that Jews and Hebrews are not hive minds, any more than whites are, no matter how wide or narrow you define whites.

Why does Lucifer have to be involved in these schemes, anyway? It’s arguably worse if the posited sadists have no supernatural liege, as all the cruelty is clearly them-born.

And this doesn’t sound anything like “humanity is inherently evil” to you? Truly, where is it written that stable anarchy is impossible? Just look at the Pacific Northwest before European landfall to see that humans do not inherently seek power. Authoritarianism is an aberration; better to dispel the very idea of power, than to let it keep tormenting the universe it invaded.

(My apologies for the lateness. I genuinely didn’t see the comment until now, somehow.)

I know it’s said that El/Jesus will wipe away every tear, but nothing was said about how long it would take. Besides, if you take the Vincent Cheung route (hopefully not) and say that God invoked the rape specifically for a lesson about the nature of suffering, can you blame her for losing faith in God’s benevolence?

I’m not sure where the exaltation of suffering comes from. Maybe the injunction to take up one’s own cross, but I have a feeling that was about woes one could already see as certain or near-certain. Marital rape is not something that one should have to anticipate.

I get the feeling that when such ones speak of Gaia, they actually have any number of Demeter, Persephone, Okeanos, and Pan in mind. Gaia didn’t incarnate what we’d call the biosphere, just bedrock. And she was pretty self-centered. It wasn’t a sense of justice that made her object to the Hekatoncheires and Cyclopes, or later the Titans, being trapped in Tartaros. Just that it made her physically uncomfortable. That making both the Titans and Theoi be topside would likely result in endless war just didn’t concern her at all.

PETA #crackpot #quack

@ChrisBP747 #80522

I thought evil was a matter of intention/decision, not merely inborn strength or perception.

Even then, if humans ceased to exist, would that necessarily mean an end to putative abuse? Corvids and psittacids strike me as sapient, even if not to human levels yet. If they evolved to that level of sapience, would they then become inherently evil? And that’s before their view of carnivory as inherently evil, witting evil or not.

I’m getting lost figuring out how they think the ecosphere should work. I certainly get the feeling they’d rather that animals be immortal as a matter of course (hopefully with much lower fertility rates than current).

@Yutolia #80383

What happens if/when they run into the anarcho-primitivist idea that humanity put itself in trouble by domesticating itself...?

That said, why do they have trouble with the ideas of commensalism and symbiosis in the first place, human-involving or otherwise?

@DarkPhoenix #80374

But as I alluded to above, cats effectively domesticated themselves when focusing on the rodents raiding human grain storage. Humans didn’t have to (and, more importantly, couldn’t at the time) control how they bred. Natural selection was the only actual mechanism at work.

Would PETA consider this as cats committing perfidy against themselves?

@Yutolia #80359

...Who wants to tell them that evolution—and Nature as a gestalt—are insensate and non-teleological? And that’s before whether they interpret the first few chapters of Genesis (Abrahamic-centric already) so literally that all life “must” have started herbivorous.

Although that might owe something to Paul’s misunderstanding of the Eden situation. El banished Adam and Eve so they couldn’t compound problems by partaking of the Tree of Life and becoming immortal. In other words, they started mortal. Death wasn’t born of Adam’s (alleged) sin; it was there from the onset!

@Yutolia #80344

As strange as this sounds, does this extend to symbiotic relationships like clownfish/sea anemones and oxpeckers/wildebeests? (Okay, oxpeckers do open up scabs at times—they’re eating ticks to get at the blood they’ve consumed—but otherwise...) I’m not sure here if PETA’s actual grievance is with humans as a whole (just no one tell them that cats as a whole adopted humans, not the other way around), carnivory existing in life at all (what’s their take on sundews?), or mortal life in general (what happens when they discover Gnosticism?).

Eric Holthaus #moonbat

I wouldn’t be surprised if those behind BitCoin et al. have a frat boy mentality (I’m not terribly trusting of techbros’ view of right and wrong). That’s not the same of thinking cryptocurrency itself is misogynistic, though.

Jeff J. Brown #conspiracy #moonbat

The only problem here is that China and Russia are also deeply racist against non-Han/non-white, respectively. (q.v. Uighurs, Tibetans, Chukchi...) More important is that this isn’t just a matter of racism specifically, but kyriarchy—a webwork of interlocking hierarchies. Not just racism, but also classism, nationalism, ageism, sexism, ableism, and so forth.

Like it or not, Russia and China are just as kyriarchical as the United States and Great Britain, and just as unworthy of your adulation. Denounce the authority of the First and Second Worlds alike, and bolster the Third World against them both.

Do you perchance realize you’re painting Harris as heroic?

I meant emotionally/mentally. I’m aware they think women are by definition masochistic, but do they really want to acknowledge their implicit corollary that men are by definition sadistic? I’d think they do, but their insistence on being bona fide Nice Guys suggests reluctance on their part.

Maybe if we broached to them that eros by itself is a poor foundation for a relationship, we’d get somewhere. It needs to be alloyed with philia for anything viable—and by my understanding, the alloying will make sex more enjoyable for both parties in the process.

Who wants to tell him that omnipotence wasn’t actually an attribute of El before contact with Persian and Hellenic ideas of divinity? “Stronger than all the other Mesopotamian gods combined” doesn’t necessarily mean “Can create a life-sustaining world with no tornado issues whatsoever”, for instance.

You’re still not explaining how to avoid all three. With any one of them, the poison of authoritarianism still persists. How do we expunge that poison outright?! Because as the USSR (from Lenin onwards, thank you) and China evince, Communism isn’t exactly authoritarianism-proof.

(Just to make sure, we are agreed that authoritarianism is inherently evil, yes? Whether claimed to be for the elite, for the gestalt nation, or for the workers. Especially when that authoritarianism helps succor genocidal goals, like with China trying to extinguish Uighur culture as a whole, or the USSR trying to de-nomadic the Chukchi, and thus shatter a massive chunk of their culture, or the myriad cases of the United States betraying the Indigenous treaties.)

In what way do European phenotypes prove more beautiful than any other phenotype? For I greatly doubt it’s just going to be lack of UV armor. (And what will they make of a white—male or female, cis or trans—who genuinely considers very dark skin the most beautiful to them?)

Er, what part of his claim said he was completely fine with capitalism? Is one permitted to dislike all of fascism, capitalism, and communism? (With or without being anarchist—and I don’t think he’s anarchist.) Certainly there’s the socialisms that don’t partake of Marx and Engels, at least. I know Bakunin greatly disliked Marx, and he was definitely no friend of capitalism or authoritarianism (which fascism is a particularly distilled form of).

@BeamBrain #79501

The problem is that fascism and communism—at least communism as informed by Lenin (read: including Trotsky, Stalin, and Mao)—are both authoritarian, the source problem for humanity. Same with capitalism, seeing how it’s just mercantilism Mk. II. You may want to look to anarcho-communists, anarchists in general (just not so-called anarcho-libertarians and anarcho-capitalists), and any economic system that abjures fascism, capitalism, and communism alike. (I’d say look for a third option in general, but the fascists have already seized that phrase...)

Assuming we’re talking about someone who counts bedding sex workers as actual ascension, rather than mere coping.
