-> file: fediverse/2203 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── Some switch flipped, a breaker tripped, and a tenuous strand of fear was suddenly severed within me, recently. I suddenly no longer care about laws. I wasn't planning on breaking most of them, because honestly mostly they're pretty reasonable goals. Like, don't steal, don't hurt, don't be a big jerk. However, stability in an unjust system is cruelty. An unjust system has no legitimacy, as a system's purpose is to be just. How do you feel about our system, and it's perspective on morality? How do you feel about it recently? ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2204 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── If robots and AI and space colonies and monorails and solarpunk beauty are part of our future history, wouldn't you rather build a world that you'd like to live in and automate it toward that vision of beauty, rather than build the robots that automate our current society, with all it's flaws and woes? ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2205 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: food-mentioned │ └──────────────────────┘ Cooking with a recipe? That thing that I'm definitely going to forget? Whatever would I do that for? ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2206 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── Protests are not the battleground, they are the stage. The gym. The pride parade. Some people should not go to protests. In card games, it's often best to save your best cards for last, when your opponents can least resist. Or at least, save them for when they are most crucial. I read recently about how Russian spec-ops forces (the truly best of the best) have been absolutely devastated because they keep sending them to the frontline to die for inches of breadth. I'm not spec ops, but I don't go to protests for a different reason. Mostly because nobody thought to invite me xD xD lol so silly ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2207 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── @user-1189 @user-1188 Alas, it seems that "value" isn't their most treasured of goals after all. Perhaps you might say that control is what they seek, not beneficial impacts for humanity. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2208 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── Without community, of course you're going to be afraid. of course you won't know what to do. of course you should leave, and return from a position of strength. With fellows beside you, nothing can stand before you. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2209 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── @user-246 :ms_mind_blown: whoa ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
