[feral river]

or luxemburg

are they freaking west ?

[manic juniper]

Those in the EU are

[manic juniper]

Definitely is

[feral river]

then why EU is related with the west

[thorny steeple]

Let alone countries like Portugal

[manic juniper]

Because it's about alignment, the EU was mostly aligned with USA, Canada, Australia, UK, New Zealand, Japan and South Korea

[feral river]

breaking news: a western superpower invaded africa again, back in the old times it's britain, france and the US, now it's the luxembourg

[upper peak]

Does anyone here use pi ?

[manic juniper]

Belgium? They aren't very powerful yet they definitely did... Something, in Africa

[feral river]

they are powerful once

Belgium congo ?

[manic juniper]

Back when they were there was no concept of West as there is today

[feral river]

they are sure a colonial great power at that time

[manic juniper]

Since most European countries were divided

[thorny steeple]

So Portugal was Western 500 years to Mincraft standards, but somehow they managed to bottle it and end up being non-western

[manic juniper]

Legit you just have three factions in Europe nowadays:

1. EU/pro-EU
2. Russia/pro-Russia
3. West Balkans

[feral river]

ahhhh they are just aligned with the USA, other states does not have an independent stance especially Japan and South Korea

[manic juniper]

Kind of makes sense since many consider Portugal to be the Easternmost European country

[manic juniper]

They were, definitely aren't anymore

Only Israel is either a POS or an American puppet (or perhaps both)

[feral river]

they are the proxy and the puppet of the US

[shy summit]

Bold of you to assume we aren’t all pieces of shit

[manic juniper]

But as you can see it didn't stop most countries in the West from voting differently

[thorny steeple]

proud of my country

[feral river]

their vote worth nothing

[manic juniper]

By the way I think you are mostly happy now since Russia, USA and Israel finally are on the same page

Minecraft's utopian world order is somehow becoming a thing

[feral river]

[shy summit]

Minecraft? Utopian? That’s some bass ackwards shit

[manic juniper]

Utopian in his worldview

[shy summit]

Bro is Machiavellian

[feral river]

I don't think so

[manic juniper]

You are 😭 you should read Machiavelli

[feral river]

I'm a capitalist

[manic juniper]

You would agree with 99% of the things he says

[manic juniper]

"Law without enforcement is toilet paper"
This is something Machiavelli would say if he was Gen Z

[thorny steeple]

This is how pre-Khomeini Iran looked like

[feral river]

it doesn't make sense a Iran flag with a femboy

[feral river]

that is just a truth

it is not an opinion

it was a god damn fucking simple truth

LAW/RULE WITHOUT ENFORCEMENT IS TOILET PAPER

I just don't know how hard it will be accepted for people who can read words

what cruel life they are living that makes them hard to accept truths ?

are they fucking poor or something ?

[thorny steeple]

Worse, it risks ceasing to exist, perhaps more than any Eastern European state

[feral river]

idk

[manic juniper]

Is immigration in Portugal that high? Eastern European countries are ceasing to exist exactly because of emigration and lack of immigration

They will be empty in a matter of decades

[main bison]

Poland is okay tho

[main bison]

Iran mentioned??

[manic juniper]

Nah they too have high emigration rates and few immigrants

[thorny steeple]

Portugal lost its colonies less than 100 years ago, and they were huge ones, Angola is bigger than Ukraine for instance. Not a nice standard

[main bison]

Where do polish people move to

[manic juniper]

Germany, UK, Ireland and USA for the most part

[thorny steeple]

It actually is, sometimes they will walk in Lisboa and find more Indians and Brazilian than natives. They are a country with open borders

[main bison]

UK biggest cities now have less than 50 percent of native white British people

[thorny steeple]

The latter problem too happens in Portugal, a lot of them emigrate to Luxembourg to become dish-washers, it's worthier than having a carreer in their native country at times

[mystic bay]

I am so bad at geography

Half the time I can't remember which countries are real and which ones are places in Skyrim

thankfully I always have the Whiterun library to go and remind myself

[feral river]

oh shit maybe I'm

[thorny steeple]

Also loads of kids are preferring to speak Brazilian Portuguese than Portugal Portuguese because content in their language is lacking

[main bison]

@feral river Chinese maaaate

[feral river]

holy freaking shit how could a psychology model would fit me

[thorny steeple]

It's the same that happens in Sweden for instance, but instead they watch more in English

[feral river]

this is so unusual

[feral river]

sup

[main bison]

So Brazil is now colonizing Portugal

[main bison]

Wanna know my fun word?

That's so sad

[dapper laurel]

Pro-Russian Europeans are the most embarrassing thing there is

[dapper laurel]

They just want to go against the grain, the great thing is that they are almost all Italian

[dapper laurel]

On the one hand, I can also understand that Serbs may sympathize with Russia, but this will harm them in the long run

They are potential members of the European Union

[thorny steeple]

All Italian? I don't get it

[thorny steeple]

Of course it will, but they don't want Kosovo to go off

[dapper laurel]

I mean, the majority of Italian people support Russia

[thorny steeple]

Do they? Wouldn't expect

[dapper laurel]

So they could be one of the largest pro-Russian groups in Europe

[dapper laurel]

They want to be different

As a Westerner it is illogical to support a country that wants your destruction

[shy summit]

Exactly why I can’t support Christians

[thorny steeple]

Sure, that's why I felt confused when you stated that

[shy summit]

They want my destruction

[dapper laurel]

I'm sure they don't want it, maybe it's the Muslims

[shy summit]

Nah just the nazis then

[dapper laurel]

The truth is that Italy is a joke

[thorny steeple]

Perhaps some of them, they just want you to leave your sexual behaviour, not to destroy you as a whole

[shy summit]

I don’t deal with nazis

[dapper laurel]

No one could do it

[shy summit]

Denying a human their humanity is the same as killing them

[thorny steeple]

I don't think so, but you have the rigt to freely express what you think

[dapper laurel]

Hold on, I don't think they are doing that after all

[thorny steeple]

Some do, some do not

[shy summit]

My guy they set us on fire and throw us on buildings and try to deny us the same legal liberties afforded to straight couples

You really wanna go there?

[thorny steeple]

He was talking about Christians I guess

[dapper laurel]

Well, this is a good sociological basis for understanding the behavior of Christian communities around the world. For example here the Christian community has nothing against homosexuals or anything, except for the old people

[shy summit]

Mostly all religions with this one

[dapper laurel]

But today homosexuals are quite free and socially accepted even in Christian-majority countries

[shy summit]

Free’er

We still have WAY more hate crimes and murderers coming after us

[dapper laurel]

I have some gay friends and I have never had any pretensions to treat them differently or to be morally superior because of my hypothetical beliefs

[shy summit]

And not to mention some of those countries are getting ready to take our marriage rights away

Like here in the US

The supreme court has been gearing up to take away marriage equality

We live in constant fear of having our legal status stripped

[dapper laurel]

In Europe the countries that grant these freedoms are increasing, Greece is one of the last to have granted same-sex marriage

I never understood the marriage thing anyway. If marriage is a Christian tradition and gays feel despised by Christians and Christianity, what's the point of getting married in church?

[shy summit]

Marriage is not a christian thing

It is a legal status

[dapper laurel]

I'm no expert on these things, but couldn't they marry in the town hall and have the legal status of married people? I say this without any malice, I just wanted to ask

[shy summit]

Christians refuse such arguments for one reason

They refuse to call their own legal unions as such

[dapper laurel]

So it makes no sense for gays to get married in church in the end, they almost don't need it

[shy summit]

You don’t get married in a church

You get married in a courthouse or by mail

You have a CEREMONY in a church IF you want to

There is a MASSIVE distinction there

[thorny steeple]

That's the first time I agree with Nale in here

I'm a Christian but I don't oppose gay marriage as long as it happens outside the church

[dapper laurel]

Well, actually a church wedding is a spiritual bond, not just a ceremony. Leaving aside this, what difference does it make if they cannot be married according to the church?

Because it's a useless right, they probably won't do it anyway

Because they feel discriminated against by ecclesiastical institutions, especially the Catholic ones

What if there was simply civil union status?

It's not a full-fledged wedding, but it's very similar

[shy summit]

That’s a “church wedding”

[mystic bay]

If all there were to marriage is its legal status, then an effective compromise would simply be confer all the same legal privileges to civil partners as to married couples

[shy summit]

Except they don’t want to compromise

[dapper laurel]

And who cares about the church wedding in the end?

[shy summit]

Fuck church weddings give me a Hawaii beach wedding

[mystic bay]

I think that it is an intractable difference

since fundamentally it comes down to what you think marriage is

[silver roost]

That's not true, and there is no strong evidence on that

[mystic bay]

If it is nothing more than a legal fiat, then I can quite see how a progressive would not consider it as something sacrosanct but as something that we can tinker with at our pleasure

But if you think that the legal dimension of marriage is iconic of something, that it is ratifying a more fundamental kind of reality, then you will probably resist this

I think it comes down to whether you think marriage is something whimsical, or whether it actually has some natural purpose

[dapper laurel]

I live in Italy, they support Russia

[shy summit]

The problem is we’ve attempted to offer rename marriage as legal union but give it to everyone but THEY rejected it

[dapper laurel]

I would like a wedding on the Amalfi coast

[thorny steeple]

Perhaps you're on a data bias or it is anedoctic

[dapper laurel]

We elected parties that were pro-Russian, there is little else to add

[silver roost]

No they don't, I'm Italian as I think you are (maybe?). There is debate and free speech. That's it

[dapper laurel]

And most people don't want their taxes to be spent on Ukraine

[silver roost]

Half Europe was pro-Russia in terms of gas trade and more but this don't mean that Italian people support Russia

[dapper laurel]

Well, in this subspecies of debate, there are many people who support Russia

[silver roost]

And this is not equal as to asy that the entire nation supports Russia, do not spread false orientation towards people

[dapper laurel]

We literally elected Lega, FDI and FI who were/are pro-russian

You know that Lega received funds from Russia?

[silver roost]

My friend, I vote for left parties so I can't feel the shame of giving (in my opinion) a wrong vote but you should separate politics and parties from everyday people. Even if the latter votes for the former

[dapper laurel]

Our Minister of Infrastructure and Transport btw

[dapper laurel]

Bro, everyday people vote for these parties, they got no excuses

[silver roost]

Yes, I really despise him, never voted for him and never will. But Italians not are all Lega or right wings voters

[dapper laurel]

But it was the majority in the last elections though

[silver roost]

Nope, you should consider the numbers of people that voted in relation to the total number having the right to vote

you know for a fact that more than half of us didn't express a vote

[dapper laurel]

Immigrants are a minority, the same goes for young people who have progressive ideas

[silver roost]

the relative majority

[dapper laurel]

But this does not mean that they have different political ideas from the majority

https://edition.cnn.com/2024/09/13/europe/pro-russian-posters-italy-intl-scli/index.html

[thorny steeple]

Portugal is the only European country that ever had a capital outside of Europe

[feral river]

Lmao

Bro was acting rebellious against religious traditions

[silver roost]

There is lack of critical thinking in your arguments @dapper laurel I only say that you can't affirm that the majority of us Italian is pro Russia. There is no real evidence and the thing that we have a stronger debate platform on this just shows a richer range of opinions

[thorny steeple]

In Brazil eh

[dapper laurel]

But I had just explained to you why the majority is pro-Russia and anti-establishment

[silver roost]

No you don't, you just made a false assumption about minority and immigrants

[dapper laurel]

Voters who have a good chance of being against Russia are still a minority, considering that most of our population is old, Italian and has the right to vote

[dapper laurel]

You tell me they are false, but explain to me why at least

https://iep.unibocconi.eu/publications/what-do-italian-and-european-voters-think-eu-policies-towards-ukraine try to read this

[thorny steeple]

What do you think of the AfD

[silver roost]

Our left parties (except for M5S) are pro strongly Ukraine and they express at least the 25-29% of people who voted. The majority of Italians did not vote at all and they don't care about Russia or Ukraine, they are way too submerged with near real life problems, like the cost of energy for example. This issue may be exploited to wrongfully move pulbic opinion but this does not mean that Italians are pro Russia

[dapper laurel]

The downfall of common sense

[feral river]

Can you accept a black, fat, transgender, as your wife ?

[dapper laurel]

But you are not proving that those in favor of Ukraine are a majority

[feral river]

If you can’t are you a nazi ?

[silver roost]

And we totally agree on that

[dapper laurel]

I'm on the center left actually

Even if the Italian parties don't get any votes in my region

[thorny steeple]

Will Italy have its own version

[dapper laurel]

Or few votes

[silver roost]

Dude, we already have it XDXDXD

[dapper laurel]

We already have something similar to AfD, and it is governing at the moment

[thorny steeple]

Interesting 🧐

[thorny steeple]

I'm surprised it hasn't put Italy to the State America is

[dapper laurel]

Wdym?

[thorny steeple]

Firing of government employees y'know

[silver roost]

Well FdI comes from the ashes of the Italian Social Right party, which in turns comes from the remnant of the Fascist Party. Short story

[thorny steeple]

And calling himself the king of America and bro cited Napoleon

[thorny steeple]

Fdl?

[dapper laurel]

Ah, well, there's too much corruption to do that

[dapper laurel]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brothers_of_Italy

[silver roost]

I would say that in terms of spoil system, the gvmnt already fired a lot of people to put theirs in a number of spots

[thorny steeple]

Ah alright

Are any of Mussolini's people in the government @dapper laurel

[dapper laurel]

It could be

[thorny steeple]

So successor of Mussolini's party?

[dapper laurel]

It's a bit complicated, but let's say they are the heirs of the fascists

[silver roost]

and for regular employees they can't be removed without firing a real shitstorm since it's illegal to remove a public employee without a real cause

[dapper laurel]

Not that I know of

[dapper laurel]

Exactly

[thorny steeple]

Compared to Hitler was Mussolini bad as him

[thorny steeple]

Damn that's something

[dapper laurel]

A little better maybe

[shy summit]

If that was who you loved

[dapper laurel]

Fascism lacked the racial component of Nazism

[thorny steeple]

Alright

[thorny steeple]

How was Mussolini's fascism

[silver roost]

but then endorsed it with the same laws just for real politik, which is something worst in my opinion

[silver roost]

Bad. End of story

[dapper laurel]

Quando c'era lui

Lvi

[silver roost]

There are a lot of documentaries where you can be informed in a few hours about the history of 20 years of dictatorship. Many of us unfortunately still think he did good things (and many of them voted for the current first italian party FdI) but the reality is quite different.

Let's hope in better days

The people are generally more friendly and civilised in the UK

[manic juniper]

Ask her to sponsor your Visa
But I don't know if it's possible if she counts as a foreigner too

[mystic bay]

also transport is unreliable

[manic juniper]

We need more Koreans in UK then

[main bison]

She might get British citizenship soom

[main bison]

They might not give u citizenship them...

[manic juniper]

You can apply for a Finnish citizenship in that case

They will remove my own and give it to you, since I don't like coffee

[mystic bay]

Isn't the Finnish language really complicated?

Yes, you can move to a Swedish speaking quarter/region

What was the price earlier

4$ ?

[feral river]

26?

73.5 cent per one

[shy summit]

4 bucks

[feral river]

Holy shit

[shy summit]

Thanks Trump

[feral river]

5 CNY for each egg

[shy summit]

@main bison thank Trump

[mystic bay]

Did he lay them?

[urban swift]

What else's price got hhiked ?

[feral river]

73.5 was like

10 for one in here

[shy summit]

Insulin 30 to 90 bucks

[feral river]

So you pay the egg price*7 for one in your place

[shy summit]

Its because of Trump

[urban swift]

I think egg price hike will get normalise

[feral river]

Open an egg farm now

And you will be rich as fuck

[urban swift]

Setting up business takes time, better purchase an egg farm

[feral river]

Won’t cost you more than 2 weeks

2 weeks is all enough to open a farm

[mystic bay]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-hot-cold-winter-summer-gif-19282106

[urban swift]

How long before the price gets back to normal ?

[feral river]

Then it’s because of trump

[shy summit]

Takes at least a year to set up the legal stuff

[feral river]

Why you have to be legal to set a farm

Set a farm wasn’t a crime

Or you just need to file something to your department ? Registration stuff

[urban swift]

Woah! Really ? Wouldn't it be a rapid process in an entirely capitalist country?

[feral river]

Probably will process 1-3 days

[urban swift]

Different countries different rules are possible

[feral river]

I don’t think US is less efficient than europeans

[mystic bay]

Like nils and I were discussing recently, the US is capitalist, but it is far from a free market

[thorny steeple]

His grandaughter was Rome's most voted councilor. And her sister is a former member of the EU and a deputy in Italy, as long I remember

[feral river]

We are more capitalist than the US under government regulation

Gov thing aren’t so capitalist but the market is

Gosh if you own an egg farm in the US you will be rich as fuck

This is what trump have done, bring manufacture back to the US

It may hurt consumers but they don’t care

[urban swift]

What's an ideal free market ?
How doesn't USA classify as one ?

[urban swift]

You're from China or Europe? Pick one

[urban swift]

I like this thing about Chinese govt, it takes quick action which keeps their gdp afloat.
Trade and business are healthy if you can set up easily and less govt interference(and corruption obviously)

[feral river]

China

I just know what’s going on around the world

[mystic bay]

Well, a perfectly pristine free market--which is nothing more than a hypothetical abstraction--is one in which all resources change hands consensually, and there are no forcible interferences in individuals' private dealings. Basically, one which conforms with what libertarians call the non-aggression principle.

This is different from a situation in which you have private production of goods and services for profit (which is a part of a free market), but some private firms are beneificiaries of governmental privileges in the form of subsidies and regulatory capture (which is not).

Never had to send short messages haha, really? I never noticed

Yeah
But unlike you Nia
I am immune heheheh

[true lark]

I need immunity

[sleek epoch]

1 week goal of not watching reels

[true lark]

Wait is booster immune? That might be why I never noticed

[whole beacon]

Exactly 💯
Im not sure tho

[main bison]

Good job

[true lark]

It's not letting me buy nitro again, discord doesn't even want my money 😭

[mystic bay]

paying for nitro is a low-IQ manoeuvre

[amber pivot]

[true lark]

Not really

[mystic bay]

Yes really

[true lark]

I use discord enough that the 10$ is worth the perks

[urban swift]

In a lifetime ? No.

[true lark]

I find the 10$ to be worth the enhanced experience, and I can afford it. Not low iq, just different priorities

[real monolith]

Hi

[true lark]

Considering what 10$ can get me these days I'm quite satisfied with 2 boosts and access to emoji and stickers

It's either that or about half a slice of bread and some old celery

Wo-hoo inflation

[urban swift]

If $10 doesn't hurt your disposable income, it's totally fine to pay.
Otherwise dev will be forced to shut down the app eventually if no one pays.

[true lark]

Not really, costs aren't that high and they have money from selling ad space using the quests

[urban swift]

I don't encounter ads on discord.
(Unless they selling my data to ad companies to be shown on other sites)

[main bison]

I agree
And most of subscription service nowdays

[true lark]

They probably are but that isn't what I mean, they do sponsored "quests" for games and other things

It's what the new quests tab is for

Not really new anymore but eh

[mystic bay]

personally I don't subscribe to anything

[main bison]

Omar hiii

[true lark]

The other option is pirating stuff but I live in the Netherlands so that has a chance of backfiring considering they kind of care a little bit here

[real monolith]

Hi minereza?

[main bison]

Where r u from? Egypt?

[urban swift]

I am yet to experience any ads oriented on the key words I typed on discord.

I typed shoes/bicycle/jumping rope on YouTube and voila! Companies ads rushing on my Google/website screen with their products within an hour

[true lark]

(Also saying its a low iq move is a bit nonsense considering it's a move I have and will make and my iq isn't low at least)

[true lark]

They probably just sell your mail address and name :P none of my concern though

[main bison]

She has a PhD tho
What color is your PhD degree

[true lark]

Who knows, maybe they're one of the rare companies that don't sell your data)

[real monolith]

Nope

[urban swift]

You aren't making any sense then

[main bison]

KUWAIT?

[main bison]

[crude widget]

i mean... technically... okay but these greek numerals have long been made obsolete, right?

[main bison]

Is that true Ireland has more drunks per Capita than people?

[crude widget]

lol, seems about right

[true lark]

The sponsorships using the quests feature are ads

[main bison]

Is it allowed to drink in public?

[true lark]

You get advertised the game that sponsored it, just not in any obnoxious way

[crude widget]

idek lol

[true lark]

Most countries are fine with that, that isn't why they have a lot of drunks

[crude widget]

i barely drink at all

[true lark]

The culture of drinking and going to pubs is probably why

[main bison]

Good job
Uncle Trump also advises us not to drink

[true lark]

No I don't, but I have done an actual official iq test and it's not below average

[true lark]

Wait isn't he right wing? Aren't that the couch dads that drink a lot?

[mystic bay]

Yeah, the Greeks used isopsephy: the assigning of numerical values to letters of the alphabet. But it is long outmoded.

No drugs

Because makes you look like a badass

[main bison]

I think it makes you look like a fool

[true lark]

Neither have I but I probably have ahstma so that isn't a strang thing

They need flavoured air to breathe

[real monolith]

Same here. Like everyone knows that it’s harmful yet they do smoke anyways🤔

it doesn't start as an impulse, from what i understand. the impulse builds up with the addiction

[mystic bay]

But why start?

[main bison]

Is the tip culture in UK?

[mystic bay]

Yes

But I have never observed that convention

[main bison]

Damn

[crude widget]

peer pressure, the promise of alleviating stress, trying to be cool/fitting in

pick your poison

[main bison]

I don't wanna tip

[mystic bay]

Neither do I

I have never tipped in my life

[mystic bay]

Can't relate

[crude widget]

[real monolith]

No

[main bison]

Do u like Russian philosohers

[main bison]

Yemen?

[mystic bay]

Aristotle, easily

[mystic bay]

I'm not sure I have read any

[real monolith]

No

[real monolith]

Okay. Why?

[main bison]

BRO I NAMED ALL ARABIC COUNTRIES

[charred current]

Yo change your profile and fly with bhanja sahoo

[main bison]

Oh I haven't named African ones yet

You must be from Africa right?

[mystic bay]

I think that Aristotle has made the greatest contribution both to metaphysics and ethics, which are my two main interests. He had a unique talent for combining theoretical rigour with an adherence to common sense.

[main bison]

Rate this physiological phrase
Whoever enjoys loneliness is either a phycio or a god

[mystic bay]

It sounds like a paraphrase of Aristotle

I think it is basically right

I agree with Aristotle that man is a social and political animal

and that an anti-social life is a stunted and deficient life for a human being

[real monolith]

I am not an Arab. My name is not Omar. It’s Umar

[main bison]

You were left in political right?

[main bison]

The same ? DUH
So where are you from

[mystic bay]

Pardon?

[main bison]

Ur political ideology
R u left wing

[mystic bay]

I am a classical liberal

I don't think the left-right dichotomy is helpful

[main bison]

It's left?

Liberals are left

[mystic bay]

It's usually considered centre-left

But as I say, I don't think that is helpful

[main bison]

Do u like Trump?

[mystic bay]

No

But I don't like democrats either

[real monolith]

Have you ever been depressed studying philosophy?

[main bison]

Do u like keir

[mystic bay]

No

[real monolith]

[main bison]

Then who's ur favorite politician

[mystic bay]

John Locke

[main bison]

R u Muslim

[main bison]

Where is he from

[mystic bay]

England (and the 17th century)

[main bison]

BRUH That's too old

[real monolith]

Which philosopher would you like to engage in a conversation with or a dinner? Aristotle again?

[real monolith]

Yeah

[mystic bay]

Yes, probably

[main bison]

Is that dude an bald old man with beard from Greece

[mystic bay]

I don't believe he was bald

[main bison]

The statues from Greece phisolophers were bald

[real monolith]

Do you think that you have a good character?🤔

No puipl

[mystic bay]

[main bison]

What happens after death?

[manic juniper]

Wdym

[mystic bay]

ask a theologian

[real monolith]

I read about the golden mean ig. Could you explain it to me?

[main bison]

Like do u jump into cold water outside

[mystic bay]

yes but after my dinner

[main bison]

I'm asking your opinion

[real monolith]

Oh yeah. Isfrun is exactly like her

[real monolith]

Okay

[main bison]

What was before big bang?

[urban swift]

Face ? No i don't think so

[real monolith]

I am kidding

[real monolith]

I mean this

[manic juniper]

Not all the times, usually before or after the sauna

[main bison]

Ur crazy

[lethal sparrow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoEbZwcL4xI

[fallen dust]

People who elected him are crazy
They got their clown, now their circus, and millions will suffer.

Overall, I pity Republicans. They haven't had a decent qualified individual for 100+ years. And now they're left scraping the elephant peanut barrel for empty shells--much like the Democrats in the 90s

[manic juniper]

I don't really pity them, almost anyone else would've been better

And even after all he's doing they're not trying to stop him (and seems like democrats aren't either)

[mystic bay]

The central concept in Aristotle's ethics is eudaimonia, which is sometimes translated as 'happiness' but which I prefer to translate as a 'flourishing life'. It's a complex notion, since it includes not only the familiar subjective sense of happiness as a positive emotion, but also a naturalistic notion of being a good member of one's natural kind. So eudaimonia takes a comprehensive perspective on the quality of a person's life: it includes emotion, character and even health or physical condition.

Some parts of eudaimonia we are unable to control. Bad things might just happen to you that compromise the quality of your life, and there is nothing you can do about that. But the part you can control is your character, the kind of person you are. An excellent character is made up of virtues, and virtues are traits of character which dispose the bearer to act and react well in a wide variety of situations.

Each virtue is a mean between two extremes: one of deficiency and one of excess. Take courage as an example. On one extreme, there is cowardice, which is an excessive concern for danger. A cowardly person has an exaggerated perception of the danger he is in, and this impedes his living well. On the other extreme, there is rashness. A rash person has an imprudent disregard for danger, and recklessly puts himself at risk. Courage is a balance between these two extremes. For Aristotle, all virtues are a balance between a defect and an excess.

Why are all virtues means or middle-grounds? I believe the reason is that virtues must be flexible. They must be capable of reacting to anything life throws at you. An excessive or deficient trait will not be sufficiently flexible to do this.

[fallen dust]

My pity is mostly sarcastic, but yes.

Their party got hijacked by the Dale Gribbles of the nation and there's no going back it seems

[thorny steeple]

PJeong new message is out!

[mystic bay]

Actually that was brief for me

[urban swift]

What should they do?

There have been protests on roads against migrants departures

[thorny steeple]

A brief of 4 paragraphs

[mystic bay]

That's really not a lot

[manic juniper]

I'm not suggesting it, but they tried something on Trump some months ago, they may attempt it again

[urban swift]

Oh boy

[real monolith]

Weird

[lethal sparrow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmnidOzo3cc

[real monolith]

If virtue is flexible then how come moral exists lol?

[manic juniper]

Either the entire Republican Party was bought or he's the main issue, in the first case you'd have to inspect all members

[mystic bay]

What's weird?

[manic juniper]

Aren't morals different to everyone

[real monolith]

And how do you justify good character even means

[true lark]

Hiya! What's the current topic?

[mystic bay]

Well, for Aristotle, a good character is one which is disposed to happiness

[real monolith]

Social construct?

[real monolith]

Okay

[mystic bay]

It's easier to see in the opposite case of vice

A person who is greedy, envious, vindictive, cowardly, foolish, etc. will be frustrated in the long term

[real monolith]

I am getting confused lol

[mystic bay]

Virtues are the traits which are opposed to vices

[manic juniper]

True

Being vindictive is very satisfying in the short term

[mystic bay]

Right

'Happiness', for Aristotle, is not something that comes in bits and pieces

He is interested in surveying the whole course of a person's life

and planning out a stable programme of happiness

[real monolith]

Still, so many people struggle as they are not unhappy, does that mean that their character is bad?

[mystic bay]

and this requires training yourself to be a certain sort of person

[mystic bay]

Yes, it probably does

Not necessarily, but in most cases

If a parent loses a child, he or she will be unavoidably miserable

[real monolith]

But external factors also contributes right?

[mystic bay]

nevertheless, a virtuous parent will be able to react to this far better than one who is vicious

[mystic bay]

Yes

[real monolith]

Okay

[real monolith]

How do you know😂

[manic juniper]

I was

Seeing your plans and subterfuges line up and succeed was the best feeling ever, but it was never enough and is was going to backfire sooner or later

It's self destructive

[unique light]

You literally replied to an Iranian guy who supports Trump and has never been to the U.S.

[mystic bay]

If I can distill Aristotle's virtue ethics down to a slogan, it would be this: take good care of your character, and your character will take care of you

[amber pivot]

[unique light]

https://tenor.com/view/trump-gif-9479146

[fallen dust]

@unique light plenty of red noses and rainbow afros to go around

[real monolith]

More problems in the long run? Okay

[real monolith]

Why does he support Trump anyway?

[unique light]

Why someone from the middle east would support Trump is honestly beyond me

so I don't know

[manic juniper]

Lol Trump was partially responsible for Iran's current isolation too

Not that it was better before, but he made the situation much worse during his first term

[mystic bay]

I do not support Trump but I am happy he won

It's much more entertaining

[urban swift]

Perhaps:
Because they didn't want to see a party in power which supports LGBT+

A woman in power of world's most dominating country

Israel hamas war started in the democrat's regime.

Although for an Iranian person reasons can be slightly different. Since many young Iranians want to see the regime reduced to dust.

(These are my speculations, nothing personal)

[manic juniper]

It is, but he could turn most European countries into war economies, including UK

[manic juniper]

Iranians would absolutely hate Trump for what he did in his first term

[urban swift]

Will it affect UK politics sooner or later ?

[mystic bay]

I'm sure so

[manic juniper]

It will if it turns into a war economy

[urban swift]

How much

[mystic bay]

the fires of Isengard will spread

[manic juniper]

Not that I'm sad about it, it had to happen sooner or later

Too many years of western European countries leaving their militaries to rot

[urban swift]

Many(or most) Young Iranians ain't hating america

[fallen dust]

Blocked Reza since I assume it's a troll account anyway

Apologies if they're not and it's just an issue of mental deficiency

They afraid of getting tagged as extremists(or equivalent to nazi?) ig. playing soft

[manic juniper]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_withdrawal_from_the_Joint_Comprehensive_Plan_of_Action

[manic juniper]

No they just did everything else except increasing their military size because they didn't feel threatened
Even UK went from having the world's best navy to a navy in decadence

As for Germany there was the entire WW2 aftermath

[dapper laurel]

Why? What did he do?

He was being himself

Hi

[manic juniper]

Kazakhstan's European side looks European af even, it looks like Russia

[fallen dust]

Oh well. One less clown for me.

[primal warren]

Hello, I just have a concern and I would like to get some opinions on this. In my English class, if you are not present during a test, you will have to come up with your own idea of ​​a test, and usually it would require you to just write questions and then answer them yourself, yes and I mean it. You can literally write any question and answer it. But the problem is that no matter what, you only get 10/15 on this test and no more. Just thinking about it is driving me crazy, I have no idea about this kind of thing is but I can't lower my grade by not even 1% ,her class is already very hard. What should I do?

[manic juniper]

I once said I support Kazakhstan in the EU and a Turkish nationalist got angry

[dapper laurel]

They also have a good Russian component in their DNA

[manic juniper]

He said many Kazakhs still live in yurts, they are not European or something like that

[urban swift]

I heard that. Iran's nuclear scientist got killed in car accident too, right?

Well the deal created friction between saudi and USA too. Saudi don't have their own army and depend on USA support against Iran 's.

Petro-dollar treaty is at the stake too

[manic juniper]

I don't think it's bad, if anything it adds a new flavour to EU culture

[dapper laurel]

Buuutt saaaaar we europ🇹🇷

[thorny steeple]

Georgia has had a medieval kingdom called Iberia. That sounds celtic European to me

[manic juniper]

Wasn't Albania in the Caucasus too?

[dapper laurel]

Caucasian Albania

But they are not related

Sadly

[manic juniper]

It's the thought that matters

Galicia is in Ukraine too for example

[dapper laurel]

And we have Spanish Galicia

We have Belgian Luxembourg too

[urban swift]

Can those recover back to glory ? Or the political correctness will be a hindrance ?

[manic juniper]

Yes but at least those are regions that are near one another so it makes sense

Meanwhile Caucasian Albania and Ukrainian Galicia don't make sense

[thorny steeple]

Apparently there were a lot of coincidences throughout time

[manic juniper]

They will, or they will be forced to

[thorny steeple]

Franco's from there,as was Fidel Castro's father

[manic juniper]

Germany is making progresses
France never really scaled back that much
UK can easily rearm I guess and it should
Italy is in a good spot, but more wouldn't hurt
The others need to move tho

Sweden is very good for its size

[dapper laurel]

Franco doesn't look Keltic though

[manic juniper]

Finland as well
Poland and the Baltics are excellent

[thorny steeple]

Iberians are a little bit diverse

[urban swift]

Well they are closest to Russia

Good for them

[thorny steeple]

I was expecting you to say anything about Spain

[dapper laurel]

But Galicia is the Spanish state with the highest keltic genetic input

[urban swift]

Anything ?
Siesta

[manic juniper]

Spain is in the "needs to move" section
Netherlands is acceptable because they at least are being integrated with Germany

[dapper laurel]

I would have preferred a redhead Franco with green eyes

[manic juniper]

It could be the first move towards a European army

[manic juniper]

Instead it's Romania that got a dictator who looked like that

[thorny steeple]

Codreano?

[manic juniper]

Red Dog Antonescu

[dapper laurel]

Did he have red hair?

[manic juniper]

I think so

That's why he was called Red Dog

[dapper laurel]

Not bad, now he's in my top 5 favorite dictators

[manic juniper]

He was a short king too

[dapper laurel]

Top 3 then

How tall was he?

Shorter than Vittorio Emanuele III?

[manic juniper]

Short, don't recall how much but may have been shorter than Mussolini

[manic juniper]

No that's too much

I found a reference

How tall was von Ribbentrop?

[dapper laurel]

Who knows how it was possible that he had been so short

[manic juniper]

Perhaps he wasn't that short

Could have been between 170 and 174 cm

Since Ribbentrop was 178 cm

[dapper laurel]

The best I can do is to google it

[manic juniper]

He gets absolutely mogged in some pics

[elder seal]

That and I'd likely encourage this European project to actually go somewhere

[elder seal]

Reminds me of the recent series on sky.tv

[dapper laurel]

You know what mog means, I'm surprised

mog went mainstream

[manic juniper]

The most objective reference I could find

[thorny steeple]

This was average

[dapper laurel]

He was short af

He seems like a kid fr

[manic juniper]

Yes, I thought he was much shorter. However now I see a side by side with Hitler and it is much clearer, he seems shorter

Much shorter

[dapper laurel]

He also has a hump

At least the boots are cool

[thorny steeple]

Hitler was 175cm wasn't he. He was shorter than 170cm

[manic juniper]

Yes, must be much less

Did you guys ever listen to Franco's voice? One of the most ridiculous I've ever heard

How tf do you even earn the respect and support of the military with such a voice

[thorny steeple]

Well no but can you send a video of it then

Oh wait its spring break, that's why

[thorny steeple]

It seems like it got worse as he aged

[manic juniper]

Yes, his last speech was something to behold too

[true lark]

It's spring break and I was heading the same way as the pub I didn't even know about, that explains a lot

Ummm

[true lark]

Finally home now

[true lark]

Genuine question

[shy summit]

He simply walked towards them

[shy summit]

That’s not enough to warrant an arrest

[true lark]

Nale I was talking about the thing I replied to haha

[shy summit]

Obvs the cops were worried he MIGHT’VE done something

[true lark]

Did I get ignored in favour of a political

Question that I haven't the energy to research right now 😕

I didn't really mean to send that but I guess I'm sticking with it now, complaining about minor unimportant things like I'm some entitled person it is

Really I was just typing it to get rid of my frustrations but then I accidentally sent the first part 🙃 😅

I'll just google the question myself

[thorny steeple]

Why are people here so anti-Trump

I'm in a Catholic server where the majority of the members are pro-Trump

[shy summit]

The catholic church is against trump tf you mean?

[lethal sparrow]

WOKE

[feral river]

Just some people

I’m a trump supporter even though he did some terrible stuff to people for his personal and national interest

All better than the other leftism party

[shy summit]

Most Americans are anti-Trump and for good reason

Its not just 'Some people' according to polling its most Americans @feral river

[feral river]

Even some of them hate trump but they vote for trump because the opposition party is even more terrible bro

Trump would do something for the nation, they would do whatever in their utopia day dream

This is madness to sell your national interest for some piece of shit

Everything for their agenda of leftism common sense

If you wanna talk about trump’s personality of being an assh, I agree with you, but he’s obviously better than some assh who directly sell his nation for some stupid agenda

That’s the reason most americans vote for trump

And he win

I can’t even count how many leftism shit they waste their resources before, supplies, lgbt stuff, feminism, political movement, Palestine shit everything

Now, it’s all cut off

America first, this is trump’s agenda

🇺🇸

[shy summit]

Trump is the one selling our national interest dude

He stole state secrets

[feral river]

he is a state secret bro

He’s now the supreme leader of the US

No one above him

[shy summit]

No he's a democratically elected official with multiple officials having the power to block his actions

we have a check and balance government

He THINKS he's more

but he's not

[thorny steeple]

Where did you get your data from?

[feral river]

I know that but he believe he can get around of it

[thorny steeple]

I'm a latino and I stand with Trump

[feral river]

Even he can become president as a felon

[shy summit]

You can’t ‘get around’ a constitution hun

That’s kind of the point of having it

There isn’t a law in place preventing felons from running

There is a law in place preventing him from doing half the things he’s tried to do

[shy summit]

Literally the church

The church has stood against Trump for making a mockery of the faith, not to mention his treatment of people worldwide

Latinos here are currently fearing for there lives generally speaking

[thorny steeple]

This is being against some of Trump's measures, it never claimed to be anti-Trump. The Church doesn't position like that

[shy summit]

Its as much as it gets involved, but the fact that it did comment is saying something

[thorny steeple]

It's like the bishops who posed against Trump's anti-immigration policies

[shy summit]

Which is insane coming from high level and profile officials

[thorny steeple]

No it doesn't, if I criticise a behaviour of yours doesn't mean I'm against you entirely

[shy summit]

When you get a guy who starts LITERALLY starts selling his own version of the bible

The fuck do you think is going to happen

It’s literally a parody, a mockery of religion

[thorny steeple]

If the Catholic officials were to pick a candidate, they would obviously not opt for a side that speaks in favour of abortion. Pope Francis criticised Biden for that

[shy summit]

Correct me if I’m wrong but I’m 99.99% that creating your own version of the holy text is a textbook definition of blasphemy

[thorny steeple]

And with that I don't imply they were pro-Trump, they don't favour anyone specifically

[thorny steeple]

Well it actually is. Doesn't change the fact that the Church isn't pro-Trump

[shy summit]

They literally constantly condemn him

They may not support biden but they sure as shit do not throw kudos at trump

[thorny steeple]

You have the potential to be a nice person, but don't get me wrong, you annoy me quite often because you disagree with me only for the pleasure of disagreeing, and you're often totally wrong on your objections.

You don't have authority over nothing. Here we have people with doctorate and post-doctorate degrees, yet they provide rational arguments when they oppose any opinion, and never start off with the likes of "incorrect" "that's actually wrong" even when they're sure about things.

You tempt me to block you, ngl. And I can say I never blocked anyone in here.

Learn to be humble

[manic juniper]

It's needed tho, if other people have propaganda and you don't you're voluntarily giving up your weapons

[tidal thorn]

Ohh it's actually a serious chatt

[feral river]

Since their weapon isn’t efficient and do waste more and more of their resources, that wasn’t a case

You can’t spend more money on guns to fight tanks

[manic juniper]

It's efficient tho, it works, trust me

[manic juniper]

What if the guy in the tank doesn't want to fight tho

[feral river]

they don't have to since they dominated for few centuries

and they fit the law of nature

leftism stuff doesn't really appears to be that attractive for people and it is god damn expensive to maintain and handle their own shit

they neither able to compare with other powerful ideologies like fascism or communism

they don't even have a clear direction to manage the resource they have

they basically grow along with the US influence and the global order based on the US, somehow they are useful to fight against some feudal regimes in other nations which US disliked, but now it was damaging US interest because they just waste too much resource with little return.

and US influence now can't really be that dominated as what they do in few decades

The copium is raw and unfiltered with this one

The resolutions come according to the resolve of the determined,
And they come according to the nobility of the brave.
The small things appear great to the eyes of the small,
And the great things appear small to the eyes of the noble

It's kind of shattered in English

but beautiful in Arabic

taut meanings.

People here dream of immigrating to the US.

[thorny steeple]

Blud is going to make a whole chaos again, DW.

[whole beacon]

@last peak keep it chill with the extreme statements and focus on having constructive debates.
Ba bye noe.

[thorny steeple]

Especially when you post a verse from the bible, Qur'an, Vedas or other scriptures.

Please know the context of why they were sent.

If you want me to explain, call me up in a VC.

I'd be more than happy.
