Spare them the rape if possible.
You want the least evil option. That's not a lie
I'm a minarchist though, and thus your most devious nemesis :^)
The ultimatum is rather stupid but
If the consequence was "Either way, you extinguish evil in the universe"
Then it's suddenly a very serious question
trying to find an example of what i mean
Well the original question was national vs global government, neither of which necessarily has to be viewed as evil
If you think worldwide unity is the most important goal, then maybe a global government is your goal as well, and crushing nations is extinguishing evil. I find it baffling, but people do adhere to that thought process
like for example they could ask something about your cultural values and then assume that you want to enforce your cultural opinion through laws
and pin you as this type of authoritarian
Don't answer based on personal values
Just on legal
It's asking about the political, not philosophical
Man I am so glad I changed the quote for my password. Shit was too long
A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they will never sit in.
like "do you think being homosexual is natural" and then assume you want to ban gay marriage or something
Wait, do you think it's unnatural?
i dont really know, lets say i did, that would not mean that i would want to regulate what people do in their bedrooms
No, it doesn't necessarily
I don't think that homosexuality contributes to the human race, no.
Think about it.
But it's definitely a signal that you're likely more conservative
Really think about it for a second.
ok so i can be non-politically conservative?
It depends on what you consider 'nature' to be.
because i have no interest in wielding politics from a conservative standpoint
I do not think homosexuality is 'working as intended'. The purpose of sexuality is reproduction.
In that sense, no. It's not natural.
What occurs outside of artificial modification. A computer isn't natural, a snail is
But in that same sense, there's alot about modern sexuality that isn't natural.
There are more purposes for genetic variance than reproduction
One can view homosexuality from the standpoint of inclusive fitness.
Having a gay brother would be an advantage.
Sometimes it's important for the larger group that not everyone is in the mating pool, just from sheer numbers
That too
Sure.
Ultimately, that's the conclusion I come to
Imagine being such a boring person that you make your sexuality the key component of your personality
