@genmaicha even if one were to assume good faith in racism like this, the fact that barbarians can be civilized disrupts the "genocide is the only solution, assimilation is impossible" rhetoric

@patchuun there are lots of brown whitenats so their logic isnt exactly consistent. and the way the same things that make white people superior genetically apparently make jews evil (pushing above their weight).

@nautilus I think adoption is vastly preferable to abortion because its less violent, but its still somewhat unethical because it often creates trauma and the adoption system isnt very good in a lot of places. again, the truly responsible should simply use redundant forms of contraception or just not have sex. people talk about how liberating abortion was to women's lives in allowing then to compete in the workplace with men and not be derailed for 20 years, I'm all for the equality of the sexes (I dont think "a woman's place is in the home", everyone should do what they are best individually suited to, that is the true svadharma) but I think "dont have sex, or use birth control" just isnt that hard. I have gone my entire life without sex or an orgasm. people are obsessed with sex though.

if racism is based on real concerns than why has it changed so much throughout history? why were irish, japanese, etc barbaric then but cultured aryan/honorary aryan now?

@nautilus harm to me means a doctor believes their life is at risk. I consider rape a valid exception because raped women are not responsible for being pregnant and carrying a baby conceived from rape to term is understandably psychologically violent. its all about responsible individuals having the responsibility to prevent violence to me. if you aren't a responsible individual who can take care of a baby you shouldnt be having straight sex.

@nautilus I'm anti-abortion except in cases of rape and harm to the mother. abortion is violence against the weak. eugenic abortion is particularly insidious.

@VD15 I'd play it

@tides then don't have sex. "I want the child eugenics will give me, not the child God will give me" is not a valid position imo

aborting babies for "eugenic" reasons is literally futile. its an attempt to cheat God, and God always wins. all youre doing is giving yourself worse karma (and thus are more likely to have difficult children in future lifetimes) by having an abortion.

@batsbatsbats I'd let her drink my blood tbh

@anemone first draw an S

@lizzie confucianism has good parts but the main part that I dont like is its own version of the protestant work ethic and filial piety gone overboard. daoism and mahayana buddhism are both better for cultivation of virtue than confucianism, confucianism is more about preserving the social order under heaven at least in my admittedly limited understanding

@lizzie china right now is too confucian and fake capitalist

@lizzie that would be so dope. I have hope for china tbh. a daoist-huayan buddhist synthesizing prophet who advocates for the protection of the earth and all its life is what china needs...

@patchuun oh you mean playing a game with tarot cards? thats really cool, reminds me of how divinatory systems are still called games in french

@patchuun do you read tarot because I can think of at least one deck with you vibes

I should sleep soon so I have time to shower and still have 9 o'clock brekky (or brunch I guess)

@kuteboicoder @winterklaus @nyx @choir father of the 100 Kaurava brothers, blind from birth because his mother closed her eyes during sex because her husband was engaged in austerities and thus unpleasant to look at

I dont think anyone appreciates my mahabharata reference much

@lizzie more like were eats (were meaning man)
