Reminds me of that green text where john stewart and john oliver programmed everyone to think in 15 second snippets that involve no reflection, just a comparison, often unjust or fraudulent, that ends in a kind of punchline that is supposed to mean everything to everyone. that ends the argument. they do not believe there is more to say.
I think this started with internet atheism, but the political use of this technique has been going on for about 9 years now, and i have never seen an argument go anywhere productive. they can win over smart children and that is unfortunate. they can invite 3rd world help to fortify their position. but i dont think they can explain their position in a way that they themselves can understand. it is always a misty poem about a thing "better than nature".
i hope we do what is good and necessary. i also hope hell is real. good morning dudes.
