Everybody respects and uses my she/her pronouns without me having to explain anything about myself. Strangers don’t feel entitled to ask what’s inside my panties. I could get all sequined up and read stories 24/7 to young kids without being accused of anything.

@andrewstroehlein 'Protecting their fundamental rights protects your fundamental rights'

'Not protecting their fundamental rights was how the Great Wars happened and shit hit the fan'

... sadly, its also a fact that people tend to be apathetic until the proverbial 'Pearl Habour' hits their neighbourhood - ironically, Pearl Harbour would have never happened has the US respected racial equality, cementing the way for Japan's fledgling liberal democracy to stabalise and not be threatened by the Imperial nationalist movement.

You all know how information war works, right?

You take something that’s wrong (was wrongly claiming ground temperature when air temperature was reported) and you USE TRUTH TO EMBED A LIE.

This is called the Golden Rule of Propaganda and was coined by Nazi master propagandist Joseph Göbbels.

Let’s generously put aside the beliefs held about non-hetero, sexual relationships.

This is about two people, who have presumably have made a lifelong commitment towards each other, …
and a blood relative has decided ‘They shouldn’t stand together in my wedding photo’ on the same day they also make a ‘lifelong commitment’ towards their partner.

@SeanCasten There is no confusion. Those making the decisions know exactly what they are doing. It’s the #GoldenRule: if you have the gold, you make the rule.

A quotation from Confucius:

«««««
Adept Kung said: “I do nothing to others that I wouldn’t want done to me.”
“That’s something you haven’t quite mastered, Kung,” the Master replied.
[子貢曰、我不欲人之加諸我也、吾亦欲無加諸人。
子曰、賜也、非爾所及也。]

@godpod if only there were a #goldenrule or something that says people should #liveandletlive.

Do unto others as you would like them to do unto you

@rbreich The hypocrisy is astounding. I keep thinking about how everything they do violates Jesus's teaching of the #goldenrule in Luke 6:27 (I'm no Christian, but even I understand this)

@qurlyjoe for doctrine & mythology - just wing it. I find psychedelics helpful 🫠

I also plagiarize from ... RESEARCH, I MEAN RESEARCH ... the various religions of the world to cherry-pick what makes sense to me.

I believe they essentially boil down to the #GoldenRule : #DontBeAnAsshole

I experience myself as a unique individual rather than as a member of any abstract group.

I assume that most people also experience themselves this way even though I, like many people, do group others abstractly when it's useful to me.

While doing that, although it's not always easy, I try to stay conscious of the fact that such groupings don't reflect objective qualities of the people. That the grouped people are ultimately individuals rather than group representatives. This is a kind of grace, of forgiveness, that human beings owe one another reciprocally. The human world would dissolve without it.

I find that I can understand a lot of people's behavior towards me by remembering that, although they know that I'm an individual, they also need to see me as a whole range of group representatives in order to carry on, just as I have to do with them, and that it's not always easy for them to be mindful of both things, just as it's hard for me.

But this is primarily an interhuman matter. People don't think about fish as individuals when they drop a net in the water. Some kinds of fish are better to eat than others, and we make up groupings to reflect that fact, but hunting for a particular individual fish would be unusual. When picking fruit we just pick the best fruit for our purpose. The identity of the fruit as an individual being is irrelevant to our purposes and so is invisible to us. Sometimes the abstraction obscures the very existence of individual organisms. A jar of kim chee has zillions of bacteria in it, the very bacteria which created the food, and we eat them without even being conscious that they're there.

We harvest other living things en masse for our sustenance and we group them solely by their utility to us. But we interact, negotiate, cooperate, and quarrel with other humans as individuals or, when grouped, with the consciousness that they are individuals.. If people are acting on this principle then it's necessary to understand the principle to understand what they're doing. But what if they're not acting on this principle?

Here's a puzzle. An apartment complex has a thousand tenants and provides its owner with a large annual income. The owner realizes that he can illegally evict all the tenants, pay lawyers to minimize the consequences, level the buildings, build a fully automatic car wash with no employees , hire security to protect it from vengeful former tenants, many of whom have become homeless, and his income will increase by 4%. From the owner's point of view, how is this different from a person's deciding whether to eat another bite of kim chee?

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is a biblical concept spoken by Jesus in Luke 6:31 and Matthew 7:12; it is commonly referred to as the "Golden Rule." "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets" (Matthew 7:12).Apr 23, 2021
