it's not actually entirely as dumb as it sounds the summary make a couple good points but
-
I don't need to make any jokes about data feminism you can guess them all in your head already
-
ok
-
@shmibs @helene I haven't done an exhaustive survey but my recollection from looking at the ancient world was that in many places female homosexuality was not even mentioned in moral or legal writing but male homosexuality was. my thinking is there must have been a reason for that but yeah now that were talking about it that's not a sure thing I guess. but it was pretty consistent.
-
@shmibs @helene I slightly disagree but I don't think me arguing about it is constructive right now, just registering my slight disagreement.
-
@shmibs @helene oh sorry it was in another thread, for example a white woman and a black man are in a relationship and privately she wants to call him nigger and pretend shes being raped during sex. this isn't hypothetical, it tore apart a large UK socialist group lol. I don't have a cite right now. a prominent person said "we shouldn't police stuff like this" and some other people lost their shit, sides were drawn and eventually the whole organization blew apart. my point was that you can make a great argument that that private behavior has larger social consequences.
-
@shmibs @helene I would actually dispute that you necessarioly need to be trained to hate certain things, conservative mind high disgust sense explains a lot of stuff.
-
@shmibs @helene I agree with you I just think that even though people are selfish and pick their ideology based on their inclinations, we build systems and theories of law and people kind of conform to them. the example I mentioned before about race-play in private sex, I think that was borne out of a legitimate desire to combat racism. but deciding to do something about it was probably an authoritarian tendency
-
@shmibs @helene do you figure people select an ideology based on their temperament or do they weigh all the evidence and then adjust their life to match what seems to be empirically correct and then still probably select the evidence that matches their temperament>
-
@shmibs @helene if you're suggesting many right wing people are hypocrites you are correct. but some people would regulate both your private sexual activities and the market with equal zeal.
-
@helene I personally get it I just don't think it's usually valuable to pursue.
-
@helene Eris is right that private behavior actually does have an effect on society so in that sense it''s fair game for regulation.
-
another thing and I dont know if I can do anything about this is, get some idea of why we lost users when we lose them
-
@kaia I know I can't satisfy everybody but if we're doing something really wrong I want to know. I',m concerned about a couple things now but don't have any solutions
-
native americans did come up with some cool things thought like nitrogen replacement in crops and dipping feet in rubber tree sap to protect when they went hunting in the jungle. I think they invented the atlatl independently too
-
native american culture has a rich storytelling tradition and there are so many really great stories.
-
I had fun talking about that native american migration stuff, it's a topic I like
-
@shmibs @augustus yeah polynesia is interesting for numerous reasons. a guy in the 50s thought they came from the americas and everybody told him he was full of shit (he was) because it wasn't possible (then he did it)
-
@shmibs @augustus I give cranks a pass when they embarrass experts as bad as thor heyerdhal did
-
@augustus the current native americans slaughtered the original native americans and took their land
