@axre91a @republicansnark @michaelmalice @libsoftiktok @CMSNorth Children are free to leave government schools are they?

[robertarctor @robertarctor7]

@axre91a @republicansnark @michaelmalice @libsoftiktok @CMSNorth Where I work, children are allowed to leave freely. Is that true of your workplace?

@BrettKing @VivekGRamaswamy This graph is false and/or misleading because life expectancy with fossil fuels is radically higher than without fossil fuels.

@wokal_distance Besides, the Coherence Theory of Truth is rooted in European Colonialism and serves to reinforce the disparities that continue today

@tyler_m_john @waitbutwhy You have value independent of the welfare of other sentient beings.

@TziokasV @pmarca That evil argument is: if humans are free, their freedom will cause unfreedom. Unfreedom is bad. Therefore humans should not be free.

@ariarmstrong In both directions

@raul_6102 If Bitcoin mining makes a use-case for renewables it reduces their cost which allows governments to force more of them onto the grid.

@HdxAcademy @kylesebvitale @JonHaidt Courage means accepting reality and acting properly based on that recognition. Its measure is in the value created or possible in the action.

@lastpositivist This is cultural translation. The point is that the ideological structures of alien worldviews such as Maoism and Environmentalism are basically the same. So their beliefs on different matters follow similar patterns

@vinneycavallo @JonHaidt @TheAtlantic What engages us is defined by our ideas more than our DNA. Otherwise, we would be mere animals. If the ideas in the culture were good, they would win out over the algorithms. And the algorithms would be good in the first place.

@knickstrahm Ideas can be good or bad. People can correctly or incorrectly evaluate them.

@a_centrism Your friends are not free-thinkers, they each conformed to some group and rejected individual rights. Communism is a variant of Christianity. Pro-life is as anti-rights as Christianity and Communism. Assaulting people is an attack on freedom

[robertarctor @robertarctor7]

@PuckLoptr Murdering the healthy person and stealing their organs is reprehensible. Anyone who committed those crimes should be put in jail. Respecting individual rights is necessary for a good life. Violating rights is a path to destruction.

[robertarctor @robertarctor7]

@PuckLoptr I hope you don't believe that robbing others would make your life better. Respecting the rights of others is crucial and fundamental to living a good life
