CarmineCatboy,

Why would a medical body want to legalise negligence?

The clue seems to be in the title: ‘fraternity’. Going by the wikipage it’s not a regulatory body, it’s a club for doctors to protest government regulation and institutionalization of scam medicine. It’s like a doctor’s lobby.

CarmineCatboy,

so the original balloon meme wasn’t humiliating enough, they are doing it once again

CarmineCatboy,

wait, australia also has ‘lord mayors’?

CarmineCatboy,

there is only one cure for homossexuality, to die for humanity’s sins

CarmineCatboy,

How are peasants supposed to compete with aristocrats?

Become a mercenary and knighted somehow.

CarmineCatboy,

By ‘defending it’ abroad, of course. Don’t know about Australia, but I always hear about US army recruitment favoring impoverished households and school districts.

CarmineCatboy,

Not just the housing problem, social mobility as well.

CarmineCatboy,

CarmineCatboy,

don’t tell them this but they could have looked for sparse vegetation and dug in the sand nearby and waited for water to trickle in but the bullshit they pulled off was very cool

Vegans avoid animal products because modern factory farming is the torment nexus given form. If organized religion wasn’t bunk, pastors across the US would call the food industry satanic.

Meanwhile, people do in fact boycott products from other industries which they perceive to be engaged in harmful and anti-human activities. If a studio executive donated money to transphobic causes, I’d pirate whatever they put out that interest me.

There’s no contradiction whatsoever. Both cases are about industry and the harms thereof.

CarmineCatboy,

Of course you’re talking about harm. We all are. It’s even in the OP: ‘vegetarians won’t eat things that caused harm to produce’. Well, that’s a generalizing statement. Do the vegetarians in question eat eggs? Quite a few do, and that’s factory farming. Do they consume animal products that purport to be from ‘free range’ farms, that in itself is a cope to be quite honest. Are they vegetarians for religious reasons? Then there’s a lot of variety there. And then there’s the world of crafts, as every single inch of a cow is used in industries other than the food industry. The idea of abstaining from animal products is always tied, somehow, to harm reduction. Even in a spiritual sense.

The parallel to IP breaches is, frankly, not very convincing at all. Not eating an egg because it comes from a tortured chicken has very little to do with wether downloading a movie hurts the studio’s bottomline. The consensus is that piracy is a service issue because IP monopolies are not breached by literal theft. Not every pirated download is a prospective client. Many plain don’t have the money to pay the tithe. Many others plainly just pirate to test and then buy it anyways. Others still will download cracked games because of the damaging software that comes with the paid versions.

Regardless, as I said, even if you estabilish a parallel between abstaining from animal products to boycotting entertainment then that parallel only strengthes the retort. Just as a vegan abstains from anything related to factory farming, a person might refuse to studios who take a deleterious ideological stance with their money. Ultimately, the only thing that binds these two worlds together is the idea of ‘voting with their wallet’, which actually strengthens the vegan position. This I say as someone who actually does eat meat.

CarmineCatboy,

It’s a global issue that affects every highly educated society. And it’s been decade after decade of governments bribing their populations to try and get them to have children. It failed every time. The economic strategy of people who live in post industrial urban centers is just not compatible with a growing population. You can of course look at it from the point of view of rising childcare costs, but that’s part of a larger social democratic project. From what I understand the american population will continue to grow via immigration and the country isn’t in a situation as dire as, say, Japan.

Ultimately, if there’s a problem to be fixed it is the fact public and private finance will have to deleverage themselves somehow once the pyramid topples over. Widening the base is simply not going to happen.

CarmineCatboy,
