I dont think thats true, pride is required, humility is a (possoble) result.

If the world governments treated the isreali government the same as they treat hamas i would be overjoyed.

Unfortunately, they do not. Isreal gets to act absolutely inhumane with no consequence.

Is that why over 20% of all recipients of a Nobel prize have at least one Jewish parent?

Here, eat this. 💣

I doubt we’ll ever have a study which determines if a thing is ethical or not. We’d first need an objective definition of ethics.

A 30 month sentence for a completely victimless crime.

Are you saying the only difference between being a cult or not is the number of followers??

Did you miss the part where Russia claims Ukraine is run by Nazis?

The claims are equivalent.

Unfortunately bigotry is profitable.

Unfortunately transphobia and homophobia persist here too. Maybe less visibly than reddit at least.

Owning multiple properties should be illegal.

Because animals are usually subject to human laws?

The barrier is internal vs external.

The pronouns one prefers are part of the internal experience they have.

Similarly names are a label that one chooses to respond to.

Whereas other labels are related to things one does, which can be externally verified. If someone describes themselves as a doctor, but has no practice or medical certificate, it is reasonable to not apply that label to them. No matter how much they insist otherwise.

Yes, words change, and the meanings too. But since that happens for even the most mundane object, we can’t really be surprised to see it happen to more complicated concepts :p

So for me, the barrier is internal experience vs. External reality.

Where do you draw the line?

Who told you that?

Some labels are self applied, sure, but others reflect your actions.

I guess you prefer dunking on people online to doing anything about your fascist leaders and neighbours.

Using absolute numbers when describing turnout rather than proportion is completely nonsensical. It’s clear you are not going to discuss in good faith.
