insurrection

I went with a pocket full of anarchist flyers and a sign that got people asking me about it. I got to distribute about 30 flyers in my fairly rural town.

I swapped signal info with one young punk.

I know the thrust of the entire things was pretty liberal but there were some read happenings going on under the surface, and I don’t feel I wasted my time at all.

you can’t know what would happen in a world where there were never guns. I’m not asking for anything. I’m pointing out we can’t possibly know what such a world would look like

since you can’t prove a counterfactual, we will never know

The people of Myanmar used 3D printed guns to overthrow their government.

I’m starting to think you just don’t know what you’re talking about.

your semantics are dull

you don’t need to accept either claim. you can suspend judgement.

try reading into epistemology

agnostic is a viable third option

you can suspend judgement. that’s the reasonable thing to do. it’s literally the middle ground between accepting and rejecting a claim.

if you want to just live in your feelings about this instead of relying on the science, I can’t stop you. but anyone else who reads this should understand that what you claimed simply isn’t scientific fact.

this isn’t proof of understanding personal mortality

we have something we haven’t been able to prove exists in any other animal: knowledge that we, ourselves, might die. animal cognitive behaviorists call this understanding personal mortality, and every time they get close to it, I’ve seen them go out of their way to say they don’t have proof any other animal understands personal mortality.

if you have an animal cognitive behavioral study that claims otherwise, I’d be happy to read it.

say what you want to say. I don’t care for your interrogation.

sure: people are different and unpredictable.

this isn’t proof of causation. it’s pure post hoc ergo propter hoc

“Vegetables don’t care if they die, but animals do. Animals don’t like dying.”

there simply isn’t proof for claims like this

ah, a consequentialist. so you take responsibility for Trump’s election, as well, right?

“it follows logically from your opposition to my post questioning it.”

no, you’re making a leap of logic.

“You obviously think it’s OK to make fun of people for being Vegan”

you can’t cite any evidence for this

unhinged from reality. you have no idea who I am. you are making up your own facts and claiming your thoughts belong to others.

your edit is even more unhinged.
