But still, that cat looks happy.
No reason to put it down.
Like might is right.
Yeah, happiness is relative so I'm sure it's happy
The Definition of “best” isn’t good though since with different genetics, cultures and geography “best” change from tribe to tribe
Can't miss something you never had, it's like being born blind as opposed to going blind.
But breeding cats like that seems like a shitty thing to do
I remember watching this video of kids trying to describe colour to sombody who was blind from birth but he seemed to get frustrated by it.
Are you saying that since it varies, it’s not objective?
@The Eternal Swede I don't think it was intentionally bred this way, but may be a product of sombody attempting to breed a munchkin. Sombody in the comments said it had some sort of bone infection.
Well implicitly yeah I am
Though pointing it out like that makes me feel fucking stupid
It’s a fair point.

@Weaboo Kempeitai I mean breeding any breed similar to munchkins in pushing the line of viability
But I think when you use the term objective, it’s something that can be empirical or standard.
The standard being a group fitness.
I hate those ugly little purse dogs we breed as well
Abominable
@Nerthulas go back to sleep.
why?

what happened
I told you to go back to sleep.
@Hector I believe there is an underlying truth in the universe (Logos), and that things that conflict with that truth (which you can figure out through metaphysics and other such things with reson logic and evidence) are degenerate, or if they hurt someone besides oneself, evil.
American Conservativism
There are safe ways to breed munchkins though, apparently ones bred from Scottish Folds are the ones with defects, though people debate the efficacy of breeding them at all. People don't really want to regard them as a legitimate breed.
Lot of dog and cat breeds are basically the product of purposeful dysgenics. Intentionally breeding defects because they look cute. Now we have bulldogs who can barely breath.
Whew morality is a tough one but at least here people are willing to talk about it unlike most normies
@StRexPowerColt let me ask you a question. Is morality outside of men, a part of the universe and truth?
People get angry when you discuss morality like it’s a disgusting horrible fact
Munchkins are very restricted in their ability to move around. It's very unfair. Most of a cat's recreational activities revolve around chasing things. It's their literal purpose to catch prey for you. It's what's ingrained in their evolution.
not even the universe is outside of man
I’m planning reading some books on morality.
Frankly, I’m a Christcuck as many of you say.
can you make a quick summary of why you believe that objective morality exists
@Hector Try After Virtue by Alasdair MacIntyre.
there are usually a few different basic classifications
I don’t hate Christians or anti theist
