The universalists were wrong about universalism. It’s not literally true, but rather, an extremely useful fiction when applied to themselves.

@mattforney Just remember you’re paying for their healthcare too.

@NeutralCurrent @JeremiahDJohns Think from the doctor’s perspective:

Obesity is upstream of so many health problems, all of which eventually becomes a burden for this or another doctor. With GLPs totally validating CICO and proving it was just a self control problem, the frustration is more than justified.

@HariSel57511397 Yet the possibility of a pagan goddess simply being preternaturally beautiful, is too unrealistic for them.

@painkillerbill EBT pineapple and koolaid: Your tax dollars.
Their healthcare: Also your tax dollars.

"It's fantasy! Why can't they have double mastectomy scars and a wheelchair?!" crowed are now suddenly committed to the realism of what kind of makeup a pre-modern Nordic woman would have access to.

Apparently pagan gods can't simply be superhumanly attractive for their age, that's just too magical for them.

@BigIron_Enjoyer @3RenChengHu @memeticsisyphus Doesn’t refute the point. Their balances reached 6 figures because they don’t repay them.

It’s a post-Christian religion with DEI as their holy trinity. Veil of Ignorance their metaphysics, Nazis their demons, “racist” their heretic, “social economic factors” their “god of the gaps”, “privilege” their original sin.

@xwanyex It's the modern day equivalent of 'heretic' with all the same social, professional, and increasingly legal consequences. A word that didn't even exist in popular use until 40-50 years ago because it wouldn't have made sense to thousands of years of our progenitors

@aethelamerican @xwanyex Yup. It’s a post-Christian religion with DEI as their holy trinity. Veil of Ignorance their metaphysics, Hitler their satan, “racist” their heretic, “social economic factors” their “god of the gaps”.

@memeticsisyphus I’m more offended by the “pan-mythology” tossed together like a diversity checkbox for pagan gods.

My wife remarked “You know how the dullards like to ask stupid questions such as ‘Who would win in a fight? Superman or Goku?’ This mashup of all pantheons is for them.”

@No5mallf3at @3RenChengHu Wealth can be inherited, yes. You know what else is mostly inherited?

[EditionA @EditionA3]

@paulg That is simply because this list is missing huge swaths of the blue-collar economy.

[EditionA @EditionA3]

@Messerschmied14 If she can have makeup, then why not double-mastectomy surgery scars too? It’s the same thing!

[EditionA @EditionA3]

@bursterasure Correct. It’s not a dog whistle. It’s out in the open: They’re making something that isn’t about you.

[EditionA @EditionA3]

@yubidad @wil_da_beast630 No it makes it a perfect analogy. Only one of the three combinations properly serves the telos of those objects.

[EditionA @EditionA3]

@memeticsisyphus What’s astounding is that he’s still doing “Oh so the RACE matters!?” bit as if his Overton window has a 2 year lag.

[EditionA @EditionA3]

@user430058 @memeticsisyphus The kind of person who in 10 years is going to tell us DEI has nothing to do with leftism.

[EditionA @EditionA3]

@Nuancefactcheck @avidseries I read into it a bit…unsurprisingly, “ontological distance” is just a pretentious way of saying “cultural difference”.

@JoeDoe11096701 @CaesarForADay @ManDaveJobGood A new avant garde is emerging. @PsyopAnime for example.
