We’ve had him before. He’s in particular an Orphist (regards Orpheus as an incarnation of Dionysos). Orphism was already notorious even in BCE, it seems, for rewriting divine lore to suit their claims (e.g. the parentage of Persephone).

I would argue that for any given couple, inexperience will be a given, regardless of previous relationships, because they’ll be at square one on how each party’s unique qualities interlock. (Although that gets me genuinely confused as to the point of casual sex; what happened to the ideal of monosexuality?) So, there isn’t any intrinsic sanctity breach. And that’s not counting the situation of the widowed.

Note, by the way, that peasants et al. had/have many children as a failsafe against early mortality, not for anything the Duggars and Quiverfull would see as a purpose for such. (And someone tell Jim Bob that the quiver was for a recurve bow, not a repeating crossbow...) When people are confident that early mortality won’t be an issue and have access to birth control, they generally don’t have as many children. So don’t think higher-class reproduction wisdom can’t be applied by anyone else.

Let me guess, he thinks the First World was lulled into complacency by quelling the Second World, when it should have moved into Forcible Conquest mode over both the Second World’s remnants and the Third World.

Notice the reference to Efilism (from the reverse spelling of “life”). Such ones consider consciousness and life themselves to be irredeemable disasters, given how the universe works. At least before the first bacterium manifested, nothing could result in pain. I guess you could say that to them, everything else combined is massively outweighed by the imperative to eradicate pain and suffering—which efilists think only extirpating life will do. For a less in-your-face version, look to Philipp Mainländer, and possibly Arthur Schopenhauer (whom Mainländer was building upon).

Well, he did once say he’d gladly sacrifice himself if in so doing he’d reduce human numbers to the one he spoke of above.

Note, by the way, that he was a pretty literal eco-fascist, excepting fascism’s typical need for an Enemy (unless that was Sapience itself). Freedom was a Bad Thing; humans needed to be controlled to the utmost so they couldn’t increase in numbers.

The latter response, given whom Jesus deems among his comrades right beforehand (i.e. those who didn’t have the faintest clue that the ideals they pursued in succoring the downtrodden were an excellent match for his ideals), seems aimed more at the sanctimonious, those who see not a philosophy to constantly adhere to, but just a checklist. (“X malign spirits banished, Y sermons presented to Z recipients...Okay, I’m set for Heav—What do you mean I never followed you? I followed all the instructions! What more could anyone possibly want?!”)

I’m not sure I like the sound of “restructuring” here. Especially in tandem with putative inability to repent and/or atone.

It would have to be a good deal further south to be at the longest latitude (i.e. the Equator). I really don’t think the axis has shifted that much since even Kemet’s founding.

EDIT: I just realized he means “longest” as in “taking into account slope length of mountains along the way”. Except that still shouldn’t matter much compared to the equator’s sheer girth. And if this was in the 1870s, I have a hunch submarine features weren’t considered.

“like a dark-haired girl looking longingly on a blonde until longing turns to hate.”

{ahem} There are those like myself who consider dark hair far more comely than blond, thank you.

But you seem to be claiming that hierarchy is nature-born. Do tell us what’s keeping you from taking up George Fitzhugh’s views that 5% of humanity are properly slavemasters over the remaining 95% (latter including a pretty good number of whites, by his own words).

If they just wanted “remote and nearly impossible to spy upon”, why not try Europa, Titan, Mimas, or the like? What are they missing?

Woodrow wilson Resurrected #pratt #racist

I’m not sure what his standards for religious coherence are, but never built a city or developed a civilization? Has he any knowledge of the Songhai empire, or its earlier iterations of Ghana and Mali? The University of Sankore? And then there’s Ethiopia, a long-time bastion for Judaism and Christianity alike. (And, unfortunately, slavery; Menelik II and Haile Selassie didn’t get it dispelled that quickly.)

I suspect his grievance is that even in places that know civilization, it’s often right next-door to peoples who still practice their primordial nomadic hunting-gathering. Probably a sign to him that nothing’s really taken hold, the nomads’ own ideals be condemned.

If we’re lucky, this is merely what TVTropes calls “Glad-to-be-Alive Sex”. Not lucky, then the cops in question are afflicted with needing to harm someone to rouse themselves. Which merits removal from job and time with a psychologist and a neurologist. Multiples of both as necessary.

Come to think of it, how big is this federation supposed to be? I could believe even three arms of the galaxy. But the whole thing? Even a confederal alliance will be a nightmare for logistics and communication, considering how wide the galaxy actually is.

(And that’s before treating Draco and Orion as distinct entities, rather than examples of human pareidolia. In fact, it’s always Greek constellations. No Chinese or Mayan ones.)

And even better, I don’t think it’s coincidence that the one Pizzagater who actually attempted a rescue willingly turned himself in when he realized there was no child prison beneath the pizzeria to begin with. (And was already making sure not to kill anyone if he didn’t absolutely have to.) The others were concerned about orthodoxy (right belief...well, right to them), he with orthopraxis (right action).

The capitol raiders are definitely more about orthodoxy than orthopraxis.

Well, suicide is a sin to them, as that’s usurping authority over life and death from God (and sin in general is anything besides God having agency). They may not be of this world, but that doesn’t mean God doesn’t want them to do specific things for/to this world.

I think Russia is bothered less with fantasy/reality conflation, and more with instilling the youth with rebellion-compatible ideals. Your pick of rebellion against family, rebellion against church, and/or rebellion against state.

I feel like Russia is trying to imply that absolute parental authoritarianism is an unquestionable virtue. (And you thought the authoritarianism would go away after the USSR’s collapse? Nope, still there, possibly never to fully dissipate unless and until Russia fragments into five or six further pieces. And I’m not sure even then.)

I think he’s referring to the James Cameron film.

That said, Shakespeare wasn’t expressly trying to create Great Works (and didn’t always succeed at that in the first place, as Titus Andronicus and Timon of Athens evince). He took playwrighting and entertainment equally seriously—he saw no reason why entertainment couldn’t work with weighty ideas while still being engrossing and enjoyable for all. Then there’s Charles Dickens, whom I suppose could be deemed a proto-pulp author.

They probably see “mongrelization” as introducing corrosive agents into the “pure” metal of God-white humanity, so that the metal gets more and more brittle. It’s an odd sort of conceit, that purity involves great strength and resilience in some areas (like morality, if you don’t mind treating Moral Myopia as redundant, that is), and great weakness in others (like keeping contaminants out if they get close enough). It’s rather like Juche, actually. Koreans are the “cleanest” race, but that exact cleanness which alone makes things worthy of existence also means that they can’t fend off the vileness of the rest of Reality, not without the aid of the uniquely blessed Kim Dynasty, who (allegedly) exist precisely that Koreans can stay in the childlike/childish bliss of their purity. (That last phrase is a bit of guesswork on my part on how Juche sees the Kim/everyone else in Korea divide, so corrections are welcome.)

I’m actually worried his response will be that only a near-insensate gamma who can’t discern his “obvious” super-intelligence on first reading/hearing wouldn’t acknowledge his words as consonant with the knowledge of The Truth we’re all supposed to have in full as Creations of God, but often choose to ignore in favor of the “feeble” rush from playing at being in charge of our own futures.

@Malingspann #85578

As much as you might like to think otherwise, that’s not hyperbole. The priest referenced was a prominent Integrist. Integrism was an ultraconservative Catholic movement in Spain around the 1900s which condemned “liberalism” as a mortal sin (basically, anything Pius IX had proscribed in the Syllabus of Errors), and all but demanded—and maybe even that—Catholic theocracy (+monarchy, if it being adsorbed into Carlism is anything to go by). Sardà y Salvany was highly anti-Semitic and anti-Masonic, as well.

Never fails, does it? The more strength/power gets exalted as an end rather than a means (and I’m still leery of it even then), the greater the scorn for disagreement, doubt, or even uncertainty. And I’m not sure this is strictly ur-fascist.

The idea is to utterly efface authoritarianism, yes? Anarchism just means “no archons”, not “no laws”, anyway. (Source: the Indigenous Anarcho-Syndicalist and the Anarcho-Communist on my progressive Discord.) Legislature would be less your typical managerial company, more like an employee-owned company, if I understand the point.

The important point, I think, is that we need a way to make Evil impossible, without effacing free will (mind control being evil to start with). The idea of early medieval Europe being benighted and nightmarish (knightly abuses aside) was more Renaissance propaganda aimed at making Hellas and Rome look utterly glorious (and I suspect making Europe more Hellenic/Roman, period), in any case.

What metrics are you using for discerning sub- and supra-, exactly?!

And killing autistics (like me) on principle? Really, now. It may take me a while to fish it back out (if at all), but there’s evidence to believe that in our hunter-gatherer era, having bandmates with varied points on the autistic-allistic spectrum helped with survival a great deal. (For the curious, “allistic” is basically “neurotypical”, but not with the risk of precluding anomalies besides autism.)

Please don’t confuse Vengeance and Justice. Especially when (a) the prophecy of Ezekiel did away with the Sins of the Fathers policy, and (b) the way capitalism works means fully ethical consumption, maybe even existence is not in the offering.

And (c) that the number of Third World denizens who do want absolute blood judgement is, to put it mildly, vanishingly small. (Exhibit A: Lotsa luck finding North American Indigenous who entertain the idea of sending everyone else to their lineage source continents. Not merely because Europe certainly won’t have room.)

Capability doesn’t mean inevitability. Remember that.

The problem is that there really are people who think that Liberty and Democracy are immiscible, in that Democracy ineluctably shows its true colors as Ochlocracy. It probably isn’t much of a surprise that they’re not very fond of social contracts in general, deeming them tacit coercion of the Best by the Mediocre. I don’t know how anarcho- LH is, whether -libertarianism or -capitalism, but I have a hunch they deeply ascribe to avoiding everything non-voluntary being the most sacred thing. And if the weak wither away, then it’s an acceptable price for the Most Worthy being able to do whatever they like, whenever they like, however they like. (See also: Ayn Rand, Murray Rothbard, L. Neal Smith)

I may have been thinking of a different rendition of the Last Judgement, actually, as Jesus didn’t have the pose I was thinking of. (And I could have sworn Jesus’s mantle was draped such that no part of the left flank, waist, hip edge, or outer leg was covered by cloth.) But some mantling was in the pre-Daniele original: https://www.artstor.org/2013/11/13/michelangelos-last-judgment-uncensored/

Meanwhile, has Stewart thought about how, if Adam and Eve started naked, that means that by his lights, God created them in a state of sin at the onset? Who’s responsible for that particular “sin” then?
