it’s fun, but alas, false.

capitalism is the system whereby greed is raised above all other human impulses though. in most other systems, sure, people can be greedy, but they aren’t rewarded for it, and people who aren’t naturally greedy don’t get pushed and trained to be greedy as the highest aspiration.

i can only speak for my experience. growing up autistic, i was targeted due to my different ways of thinking and acting for bullying, using the r-word to belittle and demean me, far too many times, for hearing it used to mean ‘bad’ to feel like anything but an attack on me or those like me. when someone uses the r-word casually, it hurts, and a fully automatic system, borne of hard experience, files that person away as a probable threat. i don’t understand why people want to use the word so badly, knowing it hurts people, and knowing it’s not necessary or even all that useful of a word.

same for the others honestly. ‘i was just following orders’ is just what one says when you get called out for doing heinous shit so you can pass the buck to someone else in your organization.

allow me to introduce you to misotheism. my favourite take is that of famed mathematician Paul Erdös, who referred to god as the ‘SF’, which stood for ‘supreme fascist’, who he said horded all the best mathematical proofs for himself.

i’m in my mid 30s, live in the US, and get one or two points. i am pretty sure i’ve never recorded music off the radio onto a tape. i am not sure if i’ve ever sent or received a fax. i did record songs off of the radio directly onto my first mp3 player though.

i’m actually curious what they think the third color is, cause, at least where i am, grocery stores almost always have green, red, yellow, and orange.

actually there’s this new thing they just came up with called ‘bad dreams’. it’s literally bad times, in dreams!

prussia? i thought she was a proud polish girl from toronto. did she lie to me? T_T

tired? experts suggest going to sleep.

if they already have a local central heating system (extremely cool, never heard of that before), then why the heck not?

wow, there are some really steaming takes on anarchism in the comments here.

no, i didn’t, there’s a fair few communities there i’m in, and it’d be a shame to lose them.

oh no! i hope they can get back up somewhere. anyone know what’s going on, if their admin is posting about this elsewhere or something?

i don’t think any of those four fellows in the OP killed themselves, and in fact, they all lived to ripe old ages.

maybe it’s to distinguish from all the other funky shaped tortilla chips you can get these days? like, there’s ones that are little strips, or whole round tiny tortillas, or weird little bowl shapes.

that is just an oft-repeated myth that capitalism uses to perpetuate itself.

if you can forget why you ever loved your family, couldn’t you also forget the things you’ve done and seen and approach them with new wonder and never get bored?

that’s quite besides the point though. i feel like you’re focusing too much on the ‘forever’ aspect. obviously, if you really feel like you’ve 100%ed reality and want to, you can choose to die, but i don’t think you’d be likely to reach that point because the universe is not a static place. the world is constantly changing, so by the time you’d seen ‘everything’ that same everything would be different.

also, i’ve found that relationships can certainly wither even within a normal human lifespan, if not maintained, but if they are, you’ll be reminded of why you love each other regularly enough to not forget.
