Except, I think it's more complicated than that. Everyone does have a different brain which effects their behavior in different ways.
I disagree but i understand form where the argument comes from
And they need to keep themselfs in check
Even if you wanted to add the concept of free will into it, you would have to admit that some people would be more inclined to choose different behaviors than we are inclined to include disparate ones.
@✿ Mittens ✿ sure, but that's why punishment exists. To reshape those brains to getting back to "murder is wrong"
That's not how the united states prison system words though.
That's because the us prison system doesnt work. Period
Poor implementation =/= bad concept
I mean you have more people in prison than the population of European counties
Look at a prison system like Norway's they have a system of rehabilitation, they treat prisoners with dignity and comfort, and they have a much lower recidivism rate. The united states, we basically create convicts and hardened criminals in our prison system. Listen to this one interview with a former NYPD police officer who went to prison and had his entire perspective of the prison system changed. Listen to musicians like Peter Steele talk about how prison made him a better criminal. There's evidence just in our statistics in our country, we have a much higher recidivism rate, because we treat our prisons like basically factory farms.
But if you did things like Norway then you'd be a cuck
It's also a form of legalized slave labor, the US prison system.
The norway system would aslo be expensive
The people of Norway also have a different outlook on life in general
And i think everyone agrees the us prison system is shit, its just not a particularly easy thing to just "fix"
That's fine. You said that prison is to fix people's brains, my objection is that that's demonstrably wrong in the US prison system.
**I am outside of the inane endless struggle of humanity.**
^ whats with that?
Idk, it's annoying.
Meta memes
I honestly wish I could move to a Scandinavian country, because I think America is shit.
I'm so tired of living here.
Enjoy your long winters and 18 hour nights
Then go full shia and JUST DO IT
Don't let your memes be dreams
Danish weather and climate is mild, and the culture is not as self-hating as Swedish.
Denmark is definetly the best choice
good luck getting past the immigration laws though
No need for car good public transport and good salaries
Well, that kind of depends on where you settle. Most cities are expensive to live in, and it's really only in those that you can live without a car.
Where I live, the busy mornings can cause the public transport to take almost an hour to get where you can go on a bicycle in 15 minutes.
I suppose some of this is caused by the fact that it's an old city that has been slow to upgrade its infrastructure
Which just goes to show, even the places championed as veritable paradise by certain politicians, has a great many things to be improved upon, for it to even be anywhere close to deserving of such a comparison.
or idk you could stop bitching about infrastructure and do that 15min bike ride
Not everyone commutes from the same place. Some people come from further away, and then get stuck in inner city traffic.
you dont have those bike storage things?
then you got the best of both worlds
Bike storage things?
There's plenty of places to put your bike, without fear of it being stolen, but that hasn't helped the traffic congestion.
what im talking about is some people mod shipping containers or similar to act as secure storage for people coming into the city from public transport
