Yes, Eric I know there's too many cultures. That's why I disagree with multiculturalism. Divisiveness is a feature, not a bug when it comes to multiculturalism. So, uh I'm all flattered and stuff, but why ya want to risk getting whacked for lil' ole' me.

I was referring here to the philosopher Burke who was militantly opposed to the French revolution and successfully influenced the British ruling classes to adopt the war aim of restoring the bourbons and not recognizing the post-revolutionary government in france.

Yes I think people are recognizing that more and more. The sexorgans of the body do not determine the entire being of a person. It may not be possible to be fully transgender. I rather think of it that there's more than two genders. Gavin Chester Arthur, an astrologer I knew and the grandson of the president, was an expert on many things, including history and mythology. His friend Alan Watts also gave lectures on this "circle of sex." They laid out 12 genders, each a gradation into the next, and opposite to another, like on a zodiac circle or clock. http://www.awaken.com/2013/01/the-circle-of-sex-in-mythology-and-folklore/ http://www.working-minds.com/WMessay55.htm I'm sure the essay author means that the 11 o'clock type is a lesbian in a MALE body.

Totalitarianism is becoming outmoded as a model of government, probably because totalitarian rule requires sociopathic enforcers of inhuman rule. Although it is a stretch to call Donald Trump a totalitarian, the mass disdain for him illustrates that Americans do not like the totalitarian style when it is exposed as such. Most of us have nothing to gain and everything to lose -- property, dignity, and hope. If we ever should need a political leader who can stand against some totalitarian threat, then we will turn to another Lincoln, Juarez, FDR, Mannerheim, or Churchill -- someone who dislikes spilling blood of his fellow citizens. Maybe we will tolerate a Patton because of his high kill-to-loss ratio.

I think attempting to base any society on an anti-social media platform is destined to fail. Ultimately I think the problem here is that in reading S&H you've not taken into consideration their social conservative bias. @Mikebert Humans don't fashion societies based upon 0.0001% of the population when doing so is repugnant to the other 99.9999%. The existence of freaks of nature does not indicate that gender is not a biological construct.

How do you explain this?This is anecdotal data, by itself it means little. Surveys would say more. But lets accept for argument that this is representative of the bigger picture. Some of these tweets seem to be about interpersonal relations, which are not really political issues in the larger sense of the word, but along the lines of "elite manners". A lot of its comes across as what Let's start with you. What do you want to see in the world? |
