Okay, so I have another proposal... Let's deport Californians to Canada, and give the state of California to Japan. Seems like a win-win.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT: Someone, anyone, make an argument for why that 14 year old boy and the videographer shouldn't face capital punishment?
There are laws we need to change to make it happen, but as a society we CAN make it happen.
Why shouldn't we?

It is my belief that if one has an opportunity to shoot an intruder, armed or not, they have a Civic Duty to do so.

I talk about how Sydney Sweeney is the only Blonde Bombshell left in Hollywood but how many "Man's Men" are there? You know what I mean, the guys who get better looking the more they look like hell?
I mean, I can't really think of any, leastways any under forty (he's 60!).

*Niche Content Creators on X are rejoicing!!!
@nikitabier You know, this kinda means that the more you advertise and push that list the more actual content creators are going to create niche content and this will benefit the platform tremendously.
"We're expanding your exposure and love of niche thing while paying you" but it's an app is a definite selling point. Look, ain't nobody getting rich off X and if we're being honest nobody expects to... but this goes a long way towards telling people they can make money by producing content they love for your platform.. especially when you turning around and develop instruments that intentionally and explicitly means you're catering to that favored love. I mean, thas cool, homey.

"What you are pretending not to understand is the difference between consequences and punishment."
That's the best way I've seen that issue explained.

Never, in the history of history itself, has a judge looked down at the prisoner in the dock and declared "I sentence you to Concrete Mailbox". Why not? Because Concrete Mailbox is not a punishment, you factory-defective lawn gnome. It's a mailbox. Made from concrete. If you hurt yourself with it because you can't be bothered to learn the laws of physics in your own damn universe, that is a you problem. I am not obligated to suffer harm in order to protect you from a stupid action you might someday take. Of course, what you are really doing is engaging in the favorite marxist pastime of "pretending not to understand things". What you are pretending not to understand is the difference between consequences and punishment. For example, if you are a lazy marxist, and you won't work or do anything for anyone else, you'll be broke. This is not a conspiracy to deprive you of stuff. It is simply the consequence of you being selfish. You know this. But you pretend not to because you hope that if you confuse the issue enough, you can get suggestible people to give you free stuff. And in this case, you want to protect vandals at the expense of people who own mailboxes, because you are more likely to vandalize a mailbox than to own one, therefore you fail the Mailbox Test by sympathizing with the vandal.

in primary school, a kid two years older than me pushed me against a wall and punched me in the face several times
He broke his finger, and I didn't even get a bloody nose
I got suspended for a week, and he got one detention
Despite being younger, smaller, and never throwing a punch, I was still punished more than he was, and you'd still call him the victim because he walked away worse off than I did
People who think this way have no business holding any kind of authority

This post is an excellent litmus test for understanding of just war theory. Despite the fact that I can see how effective this would be, I must oppose it because the damage it would do to my enemy (who bashes in my mailbox) would far outweigh the good of saving my mailbox. Its disproportionality is opposed by our duty in charity (and even justice) to watch out even for the good of our enemies. (Yes, by the way, I have had my mailbox bashed in by random vandals.)

@pnbphilosophy @DesertCity66 @Devon_Eriksen_ In this case in group is everyone who wouldn't hurt someone else just for a giggle and out group is well people who insist it's just a little bit of fun uwu
English
@DesertCity66 @Devon_Eriksen_ Classifying this as “out-group” is weird. Plenty of vandals are members of the victim’s in-group. And consequences aren’t punishments. If you punch a wall and break your hand, that’s a consequence, not a punishment. Same here.

The Mailbox Test, like the breakfast test, is an excellent way to tell who you can allow to wield power in your society.
Goes like this:
If someone is hurt trying to destroy someone else's stuff in order to take pleasure from their pain, do you sympathize with...
The aggressor because he got hurt?
Or with the guy who owns the stuff, because he wasn't the aggressor?
You can have people in your society who fail the Mailbox Test. That's okay... they can work at hospices, or shelters for orphaned kittens, or something.
But you cannot allow them to vote, or otherwise wield political power. Because if you do, they will open the gates of the city to the enemy.
I am personally tired of everyone pretending that people who enjoy ruining things for random strangers are just kewt smol beans who are only aggressive because of all the complex socioeconomic factors and lack of resources.
They knew someone would be hurt by what they did. They knew that someone had done literally nothing harmful to them. And those two ideas, in combination made them feel pleasure. And they went and did it.
That is the sign of a rotten soul.
Defending ourselves and our property is not just a right, it's a moral obligation. Otherwise, we just kick the can down the road for someone else to deal with, someone who may not be able to defend herself.
I don't care if a vandal breaks his arms trying to destroy my stuff. Because I value my stuff more than a vandal's arms. And the fact that he tried to destroy somebody else's stuff shows that he, too, values his arms less than the opportunity to hurt somebody.
We cannot allow such people inside the city, and we cannot give the keys to those who would open the gates for them.

@Devon_Eriksen_ All this sephiroth-posting just to say you value out-group folks less than your mailbox. The punishment for vandalism being a crippling injury puts you in the barbaric camp, you realize? Of course you don’t, lol

When you hit something with enough kinetic energy and that object doesn't give... well that energy has to go somewhere and most of it'll go right back at where it started. I'll let you imagine just how much energy is in a ton of car attached to an aluminum baseball bat hitting a concrete block doing fifty miles an hour.
Baseball bat is shattered right along with the arms of the guy holding on to it.
Not a mistake he'll make twice, that's for certain.

@NewJerusalemAI @Casual_Nerdist @DorneSylas @SCorundar @BlackDumpling @theblessedsalt Can someone explain how someone could be killed by this??? Hurt…maybe. I thought vandals were using baseball bats to smash the mailbox? Are they now using their skulls?

@NewJerusalemAI @Casual_Nerdist @DorneSylas @SCorundar @BlackDumpling @theblessedsalt Realistically irrelevant and if the law disagrees it should be changed. These people are nothing but a drain on society

@Casual_Nerdist @DorneSylas @SCorundar @BlackDumpling @theblessedsalt Bro the guy that created that mailbox admitted it was a boobytrap designed to hurt vandals. Thats what the entire conversation is about.

No, the Sims for. men hasn't been invented yet.
The Sims for Men would be Crusader Kings plus Bannerlord plus Skyrim.

When we tell you the Left is a Death Cult it's easy to laugh it off as if it were hyperbole.
Anyway, here's a woman saying she would be fine with being erased from existence if it meant her grandma had the option to kill off members of her own family when they were children.
