We are talking past each other. I am talking about society as a group, and you keep bringing up individual situations, of which there is of course and...

The claim was that all religions are based on the Golden Rule. I simply pointed out that that is incorrect. What is your objection?

Sex is part of life, and how different societies address it has a big role in shaping them. I said nothing about "whites" and "English speaking people...

I was simply stating a demographic fact. But yes, you are correct; polygamy is suitable for a warrior society by producing lots of disposable and aggr...

I said nothing about romanticism. I just addressed the "Golden Rule".

It is an axiom in many world religions, but not in al. For example, in islam there is no Golden Rule. Like Athena, you should stop generalizing about ...

Comprehension problems? I said I do not know if he made a mistake, seeing that the whole Corona situation is still so unclear. And neither do you. The...

OK, thanks for clarifying. Anyway, this fake media talking point is out there. Not sure what you mean there. Both the Russia hoax and the Ukraine hoax...

I said "if". It depends on the society. For example, in a society that practises polygamy, by defintion there is a surplus of incels. Same applies for...

You do realize that the notion of all people being equal is a concept based on Christianity, don´t you? As are other concepts fundamental to Western c...

WHICH religion? You are still generalizing about "religion" which makes absolutely no sense. Also, where do you get the idea from that "Democracy is a...

None. I live in a place with a pretty good attitude towards religion. Anyway I am not interested in discussing you or me. My point stands. Do not gene...

I do not know if he made a "mistake", and neither do you. He re-assured the public, appointed a Corona zar to coordinate the response, and ordered tra...

Too many crossed messages here, so I don´t know what your point was. In any case, what exactly exactly is the policy failure that you are criticising?...

Because he is not perfect and does not have divine foresight? Like everybody else, apparently? Do you apply strict criteria to your preferred politici...

True, many people are gullible. However, looking at both sides I find that the typical consumers of fake media talking points are Trump haters. I assu...

Misguided attempt at sarcasm. Why do you think China restricts travel from Wuhan province? Why do we have the concept of quarantene at all? Crickets.....

I agree, the system based on growth is a system-inherend problem. We have to address that, i,e, by shifting growth from physical growth to service ind...

The open borders with hordes in unchecked crossers have everything to do with the Corona virus. Get real.

You should stop generalizing about "religion". There are very different religions out there, some more beneficial or dangerous than others. I.e. How m...

Falling for the fake news again? Trump did NOT say the virus is the hoax. He said the politicizing by the Democrats is their new hoax. And he is corre...

Actually, you brought up mathematics, not I. And yes, education is increasingly girl-oriented to the detriment of boys. This is about the learning env...

This is not about individual situations, this about society in general. The vast majority of young males are heterosexual and are thus looking for fem...

I am not defending that the UK is late with restricting flights from CHina, just pointing out the UK is not part of the idiotic Schengen agreement, an...

You are just fumbling, trying to use Corona as another excuse for Trump bashing. Typical TDS symptom.

No, a very obvious response, since the UK is controlling her borders, unlike the EU. Any other TDS kneejerk comments?

Well, that is well and good but it is a very generic statement, that you could make about any US government and in fact against any government. Hindsi...

You do realize that general well being (pollution, living space, etc) is generally linked negatively to GDP, or do you not? I.e. the proverbial shitho...

That depends on the decinition. THe definition I used bases morality on a religion, and ethics simply as a societal standard. So yes, if you do not be...

Do you have to mount a coordinated campaign to do that?`Isn´t it enough to watch some Biden clips?

Who ran on a platform of "the US sucks"?

I think he is doing it, although probably sometimes his natural tendency to be overly optimistic gets in the way. It sounds like you base your opinion...

Correct. A correction was overdue, and in that sense corona was a welcome trigger. If the correction had happened without an obvious external trigger,...

I agree on the stupidity of the "war on terrorism", but likewise I would like to know what exactly the govt should have done to "prepare for a situati...

I agree on the stupidity of the "war on terrorism", but likewise I would like to know what exactly the govt should have done to "prepare for a situati...

What does "step up to the plate" mean? What exactly do you want him to do that he has not done? I find this is a very typical situation... the Trump h...

Who is "we"? Count me out please.

The ethics of human and animal suffering do not exist in China. The open markets are only a tiny glimpse of that.

Stock markets always find a reason to go up and down. But here is the easiest prediction ever: While the "mainstream" media narrative was all along th...

Afaik, he is doing his job. What exactly are you bashing him for, except being Trump? "Downplaying" is a loaded word. The president is supposed to be ...

Simple statement of fact. Annoying, eh?

So you are not aware of his massive corruption scandals with e.g. Ukraine and China. Well, they don´t tell you about it at CNN, the NYT and Huffpost, ...

The only positive thing about this corrupt Biden guy is that because of age and senility, it will be a one-term presidency.

I agree this is the Corona virus thread. So take your antitrump cackling to the TDS thread, where it belongs.

I do not have TDS, you do. Hope you get well sometime.

I have neither TDS than Corona. No idea if I can avoid Corona, but as long as I have a functioning brain, I sure as hell can avoid TDS.

Which situation? The ME or Corona? His natural reflex is to to be optimistic. And he gets bashed for that. But the "mainstream media" would bash him e...

I did not start it. "Benkei" did! Blame TDS... it seems every bit as infectious as Corona.

You mean the 30,000 e-mail from her unsecured toilet server that were all about yoga classes and babysitting? Have you seen them? I thought publishing...

I never cease to be amazed that there are people out there who seriously think the corrupt warmongering hag that was the alternative at the time would...
