Healthy, normal, sane, and regular are words people who want to control other people without feeling like they are trying to control other people tend to use.
They should always send up red flags that any statement using them may be an ingenuous attempt to control others.
Your comment is a bright shining example of someone doing this.
Go fuck off and learn to control yourself first.
Why did that ship just sail? Did I miss something?
We've had the capacity for feeding the entire population without animal products since before iron.
We've had the capacity to do so with an overabundance of calories that the population keeps growing larger since the Haber process was discovered.
Arguing that we should distinguish between animals and livestock until we can live without animal products is incredibly disingenuous.
Until A, no B doesn't work as an argument when you already have A.
Edit: I'm not the same person you were talking with before.
Some States do not deserve criticism.
Some States deserve destruction.
The south in the US civil war: deserved to be destroyed.
Nazi Germany: deserved to be destroyed.
All apartheid ethno-states: deserve to be destroyed.
You don't like that last one? Explain to me why Rhodesia should exist.
It seems to me that people that think arguing for the destruction of apartheid ethnostates is wrong think that way because they are racist against brown people.
NoneOfUrBusiness is one of the most consistent anti genocide, anti apartheid voices in Lemmy.
Enough so that I recognize their username even without tags.
They're making a point here, and it isn't to justify Israels apartheid or genocide.
Probably the only non-evil response.
It fails the 'all it takes for evil to win is for good men to do nothing' test.
It fails the 'If I was in Nazi Germany, I would have resisted' test.
But I suspect that that isn't the reason used by Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.de
I would guess that he would have supported Rhodesia if his government said that to oppose them was racist against white people.
You edited to add 'nowadays'.
What a cowardly edit.
How was it okay to back the terrorist group ANC (Nelson Mandela was a convicted terrorist) and call for the fall of the Apartheid South African government in the 80's, yet not okay to call for the downfall of the Apartheid ethnostate that Nelson Mandela said the concentration camp they created (Gaza) was worse then any of the Bantustans created by Apartheid South Africa?
What Israel is doing is quantitatively worse then Apartheid South Africa. Why was calling for the end of that government okay?
$5 says you're too much of a coward to answer that question, even if only to yourself.
You make up people calling for a Jewish genocide in this thread, but you still can't bring yourself to use the word Genocide for the state that set up torture rape camps that they used to rape doctors to death.
Why the double standard? Why does calling for a single state with equal rights for citizens constitute calling for a genocide, but you can't call the country that has bombed and destroyed every hospital and school while continuing to block all access to food genocidal?
Why the double standard?
But are they self sealing?
So freedom of speech shouldn't allow people to say that apartheid South Africa shouldn't exist? That Nazi Germany shouldn't be allowed to exist?
I can remember when opposing apartheid ethnostates was the correct moral opinion.
What happened?
What makes Israel different?
Or are double standards proof of anti semitism only when they're negative?
EDIT: No response needed from moral cowards that would have protected apartheid South Africa, Belgium Congo, or Nazi Germany from criticism that they should not be allowed to exist.
You probably won't read this, but things like this are EXACTLY why freedom of speech exists.
You would have condemned Nat Turner and justified slavery.
You've been denying every bit of that and been explicitly pro-israel to the point of deleting pro Palestinian comments over non-existent rules violations over in the news community.
I remember you defending the Sde Teiman torture-rape camp when the videos first came to light.
I find it impossible to believe someone, let alone a biased moderator of News, that defended Sde Teiman would find anything disturbing.
P.S. tags are fun.
That is one of the more honest examples of what they do.
You want dishonest?
They count the difference between expected birthrate and actual birthrate.
War causes people to have less babies? Each baby not born = 1 death caused by communism.
Worse then dead, they never were.
