I don’t really understand why it’s so universally accepted to mock this faith. imagine the trouble you’d get in if you did this in a mosque or synagogue?

There's an unfortunate game theory to a large civilization in that it requires hard work, ethical behavior, and deferral of gratification to build. But then eventually people start to forget that and think "why would I work hard when theres all this stuff here already? I should just be hedonistic". Slowly, the civilization starts to decay causing it to take care of people less, which causes more people to defect ("why should I take care of a system that doesn't care for me? Especially when there's so much fun to be had by neglecting it"), until eventually it collapses because everyone has defected.

Exactly 6 years ago, on June 8, 2014, the first child, Polina Sladkaya, only 6 years old, died on the Holy Trinity feast day in the Donbass. 🇺🇦 Army opened mortar and artillery fire in the center of Slavyansk. For the 1 time the BM-21Grad reactive rocket launcher was used.

This sick Pennsylvania mom Lisa Snyder, 41, allegedly fucked her pit bull, then brutally killed her own little kids by hanging them with a dog leash. Snyder denies it all and claims her bullied 8-year-old son Conner killed himself and took his 4-year-old sister Brinley with him because he “didn’t want to die alone.” What a disgusting lie. Court evidence showed she searched “How to hang yourself” and the show “Almost Got Away With It” days before. The kids were found hanging in the basement and later taken off life support. This monster deserves to rot in prison forever. No mercy.

this why being an “animal lover” is an inadequate framework for engaging with the rest of the natural world. All these people wanting to kill the snake for doing what a predator must. If it was their unsupervised outdoor cat tho…
