@Babygravy9 If it's true it makes no sense that the police would 1) not believe that he had been stabbed (given they were called about threats to stab), and 2) that the police instantly believed that racism was the only crime committed

@GuruAnaerobic I genuinely think most people don't know what the f is going on most of the time and just follow others.
They don't understand anything other than "do what the others are doing"
Most people are zombies.

@GuruAnaerobic They're all sheep. Personally I always stop when the pedestrians have right of way, and the the ones behind me will stop too. But from observing I know they'd barrel on if I had kept going.

@JohnSchmoney I don't want to be a killjoy, and I know the situations are not identical, but this kind of "dunking" on a dead person is not dissimilar to the much reviled left wing ghoul reaction to Kirk being murdered.
Just a thought.

@Connorpoleary Obviously there's physical attraction - that's why there is sex involved.

It's more about if he sees her as a potential mother to his children. In these cases, for one reason or another, the answer is no.

@Babygravy9 All good art is inherently right wing because it engages lovingly with tradition and myth.

[Self Loading (Seán) @InsideBeing]

@miltonappl3 There is an ancient tradition of comparing the spiritual to solid ground, and the physical realm to water (flux).
Perhaps it ties in with this.
Taken from the chaotic, these creatures could not survive on dry land.

@miltonappl3 I found it interesting that after Odysseus has killed all of the suitors, they are described, lying bloody and twitching on the floor, as fish just caught and struggling for life in Helios' hot air.

This is the plot to The Dark Knight Rises btw. The movie people think is terrible (it's actually the best of the trilogy).
Anybody who doesn't realise that Nolan is based just doesn't understand things very well.

@thepunishedemp @HistoryArcs This is the plot to "The Dark Knight Rises"

@miltonappl3 I'm just a little confused - is the mono vision the authentic state of affairs? Or the collapse of the authentic state of affairs?
(I'd always had it as the second, a kind of opposite to polytopos, a unitropos view of the world)

[Self Loading (Seán) @InsideBeing]

@miltonappl3 Interesting.

[Self Loading (Seán) @InsideBeing]

@miltonappl3 Recall again when the curse of Poseidon was incurred:

[Self Loading (Seán) @InsideBeing]

@miltonappl3 It makes sense to me that Odysseus is all. They are elements of his psyche, he is PolyTropos. He was a just and wise king (natural order, aph + heph marriage). He turned his mind to war (became sacker of cities). To come home (restore natural order) there will be suffering by Pos

[Self Loading (Seán) @InsideBeing]

@miltonappl3 Aphrodite symbolises love, Ares, war. They were in bed together (Helen, Trojan war). This is against the natural order (love and craftsmanship).
Helios catches them, Hephaestus traps them, Poseidon (relevant) vows to punish them.
Who is Odysseus in this? 1 or all characters?

@CultureExploreX Didn't she completely miss the point with her last remark? "Oh, like modern superheroes then?"
I'm not sure she understood his response at all based on that.

@foucaultyen @ThatchEffendi The passages quoted bring nothing new to this.

@shrutammegopaya He's also saying that our current paradigm, the scientific worldview, is also only our current best explanation. Implying that if the Greeks were "chilish", then we are childish, and it is hubristic to believe otherwise.
