Yes, indeed. Watching them debase themselves beneath his mere presence is a persistent joy, but their behavior indicates the beginnings of a reactiona...

It’s the only single-celled organism that develops into children and adult human beings. You were one, for instance. Are human beings morally irreleva...

Note: a joke about Puerto Rico’s massive garbage problem is racist because now every anti-Trumpist can’t help but associate its people with trash.

That's not true of every single-celled organism because do not abort other single-celled organisms.

That's who you're killing. That's the victim. How is it morally irrelevant?

You don’t believe in essentialism, yet insist that it is essentially just a single-celled organism, no different than any other single-celled organism...

All humans go through that phase in their development and are born of human parents. Is it not human? because you are forever trying to dismiss that t...

One can act on his principles and experiences. I don’t kill flies because they are flies but because I am at eternal war with them. The abortion itsel...

My argument is that it is wrong to kill one’s offspring. My question about the psychology of humanization is about what it does to the one who behaves...

I think it works to negate the conscience.

Dehumanization is the method. I’m curious what it does psychologically, as the behavior that commonly follows it is rarely moral.

Humans are single-celled for a few days at best. But no need to reiterate the position.

You’d just be repeating evasions anyways. They all contain reasons why you accept her choice, not whether the act itself is right or wrong.

I get that you accept her choice. You don’t need to restate your opinion on that matter. But I do want to hear the reasoning behind why think it is ri...

If it isn’t wrong then is it right to kill human in his early stages?

Except there is a human being on one track and no one on the next. Right or wrong, moral or immoral, good or bad, correct or incorrect…these are the r...

Of course she can do whatever she wants. But she has to choose to do something or not do something. What should she choose? You can’t say, can you? Yo...

It’s a normative question. Of course it isn’t true or false. I’ll put it in a language you might understand. There’s a trolly coming down the track, a...

I do understand, I’m just asking why you can’t answer the question when we all here have the capacity to discern whether or not someone else should pe...

It’s a simple question: should she kill her offspring? Should she abort or not? Why or why not? Why can’t you guys answer this?

My concern isn’t so much the taxonomy but the flesh-and-blood entity that you are justifying killing. I don’t require categories to tell me when it is...

And there we have it. Mother’s should kill their offspring when they are cysts. At least we’re out with it.

Assuming that it is optional, the mother has every right, and no one would intervene, should she kill her offspring? Is it right or wrong to do so? Is...

Even if a mother has greater value than her offspring, and all the “qualities” observers prefer, it doesn’t follow that she should kill them, as if bo...

There was a time when they were not considered persons. It was the same with slaves. It’s the same instinct and language at work in this discussion, w...

Fine, you don’t consider meat as food. I’m only stating that every dictionary does. We’re speaking about the medical procedure some people choose to t...

My issue is the identity of indiscernibles. She’s some other being one minute then a human being the next, while anyone watching this supposed change ...

It would be but Biden possessed stolen documents for decades and nothing happened. If you watch the appeals to the New York civil case the appeals jud...

They politicized the justice system. Biden’s DOJ went after him. Attorney Generals campaigned on going after him and they cooked up frivolous cases. T...

Trump’s enemies have set the blueprint. The crying wolf and the hoaxes are one thing, but Trump’s enemies have also used the state to go after him. No...

Show me any definition that states otherwise. Miscarriages are not the intentional killing of a human life, so no.

Utter lies, but that seems par for the course.

That we were all cysts is the ineradicable problem of the act. Had any of these worms wiggled their way into any of our mother’s ears we wouldn’t exis...

My one objection is that meat is flesh-as-food, flesh that we eat. I think we're in trouble when we start viewing other members of our species as food...

Trump goes on Joe Rogan’s podcast. https://youtu.be/hBMoPUAeLnY?si=Vejwdn5UK1Ljnkdn

This is the second time I’ve heard the suggestion that a brain-dead human is “meat”. They think a brain-dead child is food.

Ok, if it’s not a human being then what is it?

It has plenty of moral relevance because that organism is the recipient of your behavior. In any case, it would be nice to have a single name for the ...

But it would be nice to know what type of organism we are ontologically speaking, wouldn't it? Can we not have a word for that?

A many-named thing. What do I label it if I want to know what kind of animal it is?

Exactly right. So what should we call this shape-shifting being?

I’ve tried “a member of the species Homo sapiens” or “a biologically distinct human organism”.

Glad to hear your opinion and interested to read your perspective. If it isn’t an individual human, what is it? The distinct genetic material is there...

That’s a lie. Remember when you repeated the “very fine people” hoax? You’re just projecting, and angry, a bad combo.

It was a joke.

How about all of them? Then again there would be no orphanage, nor any human for that matter.

Yes, one is the reason to conclude the other. If you believe the first the other ought to follow. Does that make sense? I don’t kill flies because of ...

Elite Hollywood pedophiles, to be precise.

We are arguing whether it is right or wrong to kill a human being at this stage in his life. It’s an important question. I don’t understand where this...
