But because in practice that's how we've learned to recognize them

Some things are one-sidedly evil, some one-sidedly good

Most are int he grey area or without any morality at all

You could argue that child molestation can be a positive thing because it brings the child pleasure

Which is obviously fucking retarded

!remind me 200 years

Because the thing itself is inherently negative, even if it is not literally wholly evil

@Skogarbjorn Unions are fascist by the most basic definition of that term. Are they evil?
Mafia is fascist? Are they?

You can argue anything, that's why shitposting works. It's just with some things you'll be objectively wrong

What, recognize a kiddie toucher that wants to see little girls with their tops off, and pose as female...
Niiiiiigg...

Same type of structure of organisation

I've never argued that unions are either fascist or evil. I've argued that we can assume certain things to be inherently bad or good, not because they are in a literal sense, but because they tend to bring about bad far easier than good, or vice versa.

I don't believe in good and evil. But I do believe in differentiating between bad and good for practical reasons.

Objectively wrong to point out nuance in things

I agree that nothing is inherently bad or good in theory, but you can't apply that theory to reality most of the time

Interesting

When did I say it was wrong to point out nuance in things

I guess some people need "[this thing] bad" "[that thing] good" logic only

Nuance be damned

No human being can ever think solely in literal terms

You need to generalize to apply your thinking in practice

@Skogarbjorn It was in responce to @randomNPCno3

"You can argue anything, that's why shitposting works. It's just with some things you'll be objectively wrong"

ah

I want to avoid the type 1 thinking when I analyse politics

Knee-jerk feels-type thinking in patterns is not helpful there

Aye, over-generalizing does us no favors

Anything includes facts like 2+2=4, pointing out nuance is important

Heuristics are not helpful when there is nuance that can sway it either way

2+2 is not always equal 2+2

Because those sets of numbers IRL will relate to sets of things that can't be interchanged as it is accepted in math

And if you're just doing arithmetic and not relating it to anything irl?

That is gross and at the same time memetastic

Some fine swine

Animal heads in the butcher's shop always creeped me out

you can call him a smooth swine

I guess it is because I saw animals being slaughtered as a kid and did not become desensetised to that at all

yeah

swine lives matter

Really? I held the bolt gun to the cows myself as a kid
