Imagine getting conscripted to die for a government that doesn't even think you're fully human...
I don't know who this person is but aside from the eusocial animals humans are probably the next most social creatures. Talking about fending for yourself is batshit insane, how would you even do that? Everything we have, know, or do involves other human beings.
I would agree, which is why I tend to come down against private property/privatisation of land. It serves everyone to have agriculture, but only if that agriculture is done in a way which serves everyone. Of course a community controlling its land and allocating it to people who want to use it to benefit the community is no guarantee they use it responsibly, as we can see with this one.
Managing things like environmental impact requires a very large scale view and coordination, a river might be able to tolerate run off from the first farm, but by the 50th downstream it might be cooked. It's difficult to expect the person at the first farm to really understand their impact and responsibility. Significant attitude changes are needed, almost everyone in Australia behaves in ways the earth cannot sustain and which violently exploit other animals including other humans (e.g. our diets, our trinkets). We really need to reframe what being a human in the world means and what responsibilities it entails, and set up institutions that make it easier instead of harder.
They raised this in nsw a few years back. Shame it didn't take, the data are in it just makes sense. It's such a minor part of anyone's commute and it would have benefits in safety for humans, non humans, and noise level reductions.
See? outing your barely repressed antisocial violent urges.
Sorry champ, can't have you raping the kids. Considered more male appropriate work like investment banking? Leave those jobs that involve contributing to society in community to us girls.
What in the gender essentialist fuck? You cannot bar all men from jobs involving kids. You need a working with children check to run an extracurricular class, what are you smoking?
It was extremely funny to watch the usa Democrats go from "trump is literally a fascist he will destroy America" to "welp, vote in four years folks. Follow evil directions until then".
I'm not a usaian so I might be missing something but isn't the most radical thing this guy has said something like: "I think people who have literally too much money to spend should have too much money to spend (smaller) so we can feed people and give them medical care"?
Does the mayor of new york even have the power to move on that? I would've assumed they like direct bureaucracy providing infrastructure and chair council meetings and shit.
It's pretty cringe to see handwringing over this guy make it all the way over the Pacific. He's a mayoral candidate, for people outside his council area or whatever isn't this a huge nothingburger?
When you get to university take a couple of electives in philosophy, including philosophy of science.
Maybe not, ostensibly if you're persecuted you could seek asylum and you're probably a lot less likely to be killed overall.
I defs wouldn't give my life to defend people that don't respect me. Conscription is a crime against humanity at the best of times but conscripting people without full rights is straight up evil.
