  • Seems pretty straightforward to me.

    If I’m gonna be shit on for being unethical no matter what I do, (because that is no option to not consume under capitalism for most of us) I might as well be unethical in a way that brings me a little happiness.

    This is also a lovely example of why it can be risky to damn with too broad a brush.

    If pancakes aren’t saiting you, then you need to eat more of them.

    But seriously, it’s just a case of what you’re used to.

    In my experience, bacon and pancakes take a fair bit of time to make, but not a great deal of effort or attention. They are perfect for a lazy Saturday morning, and I can talk and socialize with the cook while they are being prepared, or as the cook while I prepare them. Compare to dinner which is either a whole production that keeps me in the kitchen and requires my attention, or tossing something frozen in the oven for an hour.










  • Am I having a stroke?

    We call it “autocorrect.”

    I never said you should go get the community to bash his brains in, that’s all in your mind.

    Yes, because you won’t tell me what’s in your mind.

    When you were younger, if your brother steals from you, you’d turn to your parents, and they’d assess the situation. Now apply that to a community, like a small village or a city block.

    You’d go to your parents, yes, who have authority over us both. But your vision prohibits the village or city block from having authority over anyone else. I believe you used the word “evil.”

    So, for the last time, what is your proposal for dealing with a situation where someone strong steaks from someone weak? If you cannot articulate at least an ideal sort of general solution, compatible with your idea that giving people authority over other people is unacceptable, then we need not continue this conversation.
