@Tfmonkey - So... Hadrian would be an unknown white Anglo-Saxon protestant American, with properties across the eastern seaboard, running a currently failing cathedral... and he'd be rooting for Israel. 😅🍻
@Tfmonkey - Morally bankrupt??
I was told all morality was subjective. And Modern Morality Theory (mmt) says we can spin morality however we like without ever going bankrupt. 🤔
Let's see... 🤔 Hadrian was in charge of the known world in his day. And I'm often told that Jews run the world... 🤔 But it's hard to believe Israel is the actual seat of power, sitting as it does on the front lines of a cold war against patriarchy and 1.2M Muslims. 🤔

@37712 - Out group war brides of course, are another matter. Ideally, I would prefer to see them assigned to warriors untouched.
But a combat environment is dynamic and unpredictable. And the fact is, all the authority in the world only goes so far, under such conditions.
So it's bound to happen. But I would do what I can to discourage the practice. And hopefully, the warriors available will be high enough IQ, to see the benefit of having untouched war brides assigned in good condition.
@37712 - Yeah, I too would make rape a death sentence. But I would define it as a property crime, prosecuted/reported by the male affected (husband, father, or nearest male relative).
For an offender who is otherwise valuable to the community, castration may be considered as an alternative to execution.
Basically, the thing that would make rape so terrible in a patriarchal community, is that it amounts to forced cuckoldry. And that shit deserves a death sentence. 🍻
@sardonicsmile - Well! I'm REALLY liking these odds. 🫡🍻
@37712 @Tfmonkey @DoubleD - Well, to be fair... We gave women rights. And that was a mistake.🤦🏻♂️ So of course, no one's getting wiped out until it all falls down.
But it's viable in a real patriarchy. I can't see any point in quibbling about how best to save an unsaveable system. But in the rebuild, when we all have our cohesive little communities (I really like city-states in the Greek model, personally)... It's viable.
We ought to let go of what's already been built though - a hard lesson.💁🏻♂️🍻
@Scubbie - I'm cool with quiet christians who peacefully live out their ideals. I've only met a few of those, but they're cool as fuck. 🫡🍻
My problem is with the preachers, because so far, every single one of them has used their overbearing "wisdom"... as a means of trying to wipe their own celestial slate clean. 🤦🏻♂️ and that's giving them the benefit of the doubt. It's like: "maybe just worry about your own shit, asshole".😠
It's the meddlesome hypocrisy I can't stand. 😅 I will crucify'em. 💪💦💦
Well personally, I find bible-thumping evangelicals much more insufferable than Jews (I'm from the south, so naturally they've had much more negative impact on me, than Jews ever could).
That's a solid point, but the problem of religion is real (baDUM 🥁). So I'll keep looking for a way to mitigate it.
My best idea so far? Ban preaching outside of religious spaces & the home. And as benevolent dictator, monitor the religious spaces, to be dealt with as needed. 🍻
@UncleIroh @Pain66 - Same. That's well said. 🫡
@ButtWorldsMan @Tfmonkey - The more I hear descriptions of Gaza, the more it seems like a colossal housing project. Or maybe more like the defunct "Kowloon Walled City" from Hong Kong in the 80s.
Like, if Marcy Projects in NYC decided to "go to war" with the state of NY... How much cohesion and strategy on their part, could be expected?
Maybe Gaza was just that unwise.
@shortstories - Any energy that is expended in trying to save the current system, is energy wasted.
I mean, not to rain on the parade... But maybe 20 yrs ago?
@Engineer - Eh, we'll see. But I'm preparing for a lifestyle without internet. 🍻
@Engineer @Tfmonkey @dander - ➡️ a matter of control. Taking female rights away, will go farther than anything else, in reducing the amount of underage porn. And just like that, we're back at the crux of the matter. 💁🏻♂️
Thankfully, in the post-collapse, I don't see the internet being a thing anymore. And cameras will probably be a lost technology. So in time, this will become a moot issue. 🍻
@Engineer @Tfmonkey @dander - You know, if you spend time on TikTok, it's not long before you see a 13yo female dancing like a whore, bouncing for the camera. And it occurs to me, that user generated content is a thing that exists. Females are whoreish by nature - not good or evil, but just what they are.
So, what is to be done when the user generated content is nuder than TikTok, and the whoreish females are under age? 🤔
It seems to me, that much like white women fucking dogs... This is ➡️
@dander @RodrickSage - Fenrir (the great wolf, son of Loki) is prophesied to be the death of Odin, and the destruction of Asgard, harbinger of Ragnarok. 🤔
And according to some interpretations, it's a self fulfilling prophecy, brought about by Odin punishing Fenrir, without just cause and simply out of fear of the prophecy and Fenrir's apparent power & strength.
If I'm not mistaken, that is. 🍻
@UncleIroh - When giving advice to young males regarding violence... I try to leave ethics, duty, honor, and morality, out of the conversation.
I tell them: "be smart about it." So, might makes right, but bear in mind the consequences. Evaluate your personal "might" accurately, because the stakes can be quite high.
@ButtWorldsMan - Yeah, prefrontal cortex vs limbic system is a pretty tough match-up.
Psychologists talk about "self-sabotage" as though it were a bad thing. But if you're self-sabotaging an effort to get back to the plantation... 🤔 hey, ya do what ya gotta do. 💁🏻♂️😅🍻
@Scubbie - When I was a younger and shittier person, I hated that the truth always comes to light.
And nowadays? Well, that's my favorite part of the truth. 😅💁🏻♂️🍻
