The only thing weird with this photo is putting a glass of wine anything on the floor next to kids playing games. That glass will either be spilled or broken.

Many examples, but more wholesome places where people share interests rather than places where people discuss opinions. E.g. c/cubers, and similar.

Evolving back to not having this inborn acquired taste?

No but seriously, just sheer will and keeping an eye on what we eat. Buy raw ingredients and cook for yourself. Make high quality food with what you can afford. (Basic ingredients are cheaper anyway.)

Well, your mileage may vary, like I said.

I think if you pick the right communities you’ll be met with more respect and more adult people, I guess.

Might be! Maybe they were the real bot, eh.

Yeah, people don’t carry on with sane discussions under full anonymity 😞

lol, indeed they do, but probably about more interesting things than this 💀

No joke.

But they were European too so that’s what baffled me a bit. And they were so adamant and stubborn about “calling me out” on pretending not to know Trump’s stance on Israel lol. Such a random thing to pretend…

Yeah that person was pure and utter life noise. Begone!

Politics is an annoying part of life, for sure, but I was engaged in the conversation so I guess I have some part in it.

Just the other day I had to block this idiot from harassing me, claiming I was faking ignorance about Trump’s stance on Israel so I could “bait Americans into a discussion”, for some reason. I’m European, I don’t follow presidential candidate policies very closely at all. This tool was also European, and Palestinian. I don’t know why they were insisting so hard I would do this inexplicably weird thing, but maybe their emotions were running high. I’m against genocide btw, of course. ✊

Strongly disagree, but maybe it depends on which communities one frequents.

Well sh—t. You got me there. 😆 Take care!

What is this? I found it fascinating.

And did you mean to write “Come on, guys!”?

Now I want to take on the challenge. 😅 Would you mind sharing what you do for work and recreation?

Whatever. It sucks ass is the point.

Misanthropy involves a negative evaluative attitude toward humanity that is based on humankind’s flaws. Misanthropes hold that these flaws characterize all or at least the greater majority of human beings. They claim that there is no easy way to rectify them short of a complete transformation of the dominant way of life.

I thought this was quite interesting. I think I agree very much with

there is no easy way to rectify them short of a complete transformation of the dominant way of life

but not so much with

these flaws characterize all or at least the greater majority of human beings

I just think these flaws characterize all or the greater majority of human beings that possess a relative amount of power. That’s the real problem. Or perhaps the real problem is that power itself transforms humans and gives them these flaws. I’m not sure if it’s the chicken or the egg, kind of thing.

It seems tangential, perhaps? Like, accepting the fact that nature is going to kick our asses eventually anyway, is what you’re getting at? Let me know if that’s what you were thinking. 🙂

Holy hell. That was out of a clear blue sky.

Take care, bud. 🩵

Yep, that is indeed exactly what I was asking. 👍 The ideology that humans should be exterminated.

Is there a name for the ideology that humans should be wiped from the planet for the benefit of the planet and the rest of the organisms on it?
