@HatkeshiatorTND lmao I'm not a hobbesian at all. I dont like government and I tend to like people. I'm 5' 4.5" so fairly average for a woman

@brimshae @VD15 yeah I figured it was talking about factorio

@protos @tides you can't pay me to read Nietzsche.

@HatkeshiatorTND I read lord of the flies in school but I never read thomas hobbes. I'm fairly familiar with his attitude though. I dont like either of their conclusions about the nature of man, which I believe belong to a time later in kali yuga than this when people are even more reprobate (one could call it total depravity like a pr*t*st*nt). but even in such times rare souls will still appear to spread the dharma. I like the nordic system as far as governance goes (in absence of a truly God ordained theocracy), its one of my libshittier views. I just think that if a country is the happiest in the world, its doing something correctly.

@protos @tides bhagavad gita 16 7-16

@HatkeshiatorTND what's my perspective on nature? I have the shaktadvaitavada perspective that all nature is an expression of saguna brahman and the kashmir shaivite perspective that all of reality is consciousness/vibrating consciousness (energy). I dont have the mayavada perspective that reality is fake and gay, I consider it to be more like a dream, and dreams are real, just more transient.

@nautilus I dont oppose abortion because of fetal pain which is somewhat dubious youre right. I oppose it because of the death of what will become a person. the killing of an organism that is dependent on another organism at its first stage of life is still killing, and I'm against killing, even of most insects.

I agree with most of your last paragraph. women's oppression is deeply rooted in the burden of reproduction while men perpetuate patriarchy to ensure their control of both womens sexuality and even moreso that they will have male heirs. but I think abortion is no solution to this disparity, in fact abortion has disproportionately affected pre-birth girls in countries like india and china especially creating significant sex gaps. I think the solution is no longer having a society obsessed with porn and sex, and promoting sex education and contraception and other tools like plan B. this has no downsides I can think of. I dont consider feminism (even radical feminism) and being pro-life antithetical to eachother, for me they are both rooted in opposition to entrenched systems of violence that disproportionately affect the disenfranchised.

@kumicota @nautilus taking care of any kid is virtuous but adopting is very virtuous. I wish there werent such a stigma against it.

@tk @patchuun his story is so sad

@genmaicha they usually self-civilize upon exposure to what is deemed "civilization", like many poor immigrants to america
