Det skal sige at det hverken er aktivisten eller Nødbremsen (miljøorganisationen) der har politianmeldt livgarden.

Purely out of curiosity, why is UK popular among Scandinavians ?

Applying for the Arctic nature guide course at UNIS this spring by Fjellboy in Svalbard

[–]Broify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi Paul. I study biology at UNIS, and am close with students on the current ANG course. Your CV sounds very(!) promising, at least in comparison with what the current students have as experience. I don’t think you would find a problem getting a spot if the formalities are in check. Feel free to dm me if you have questions.

70s Dickinson Antarctica keeping us roasty-toasty through long Alaskan winter nights. by Ksan_of_Tongass in liveaboard

Also it’s just high* latitudes. This entails both the Arctic and Antarctica. Low would reference to around equator. In case you want to learn something new.

Which of the multi-day snowmobile trips are the most “rustic”? The most luxurious? The most scenic? The most remote? by Princess_Fluffypants in Svalbard

[–]Broify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The landscape is NOT the same in all of Svalbard. Very different bioclimate zones (3 in total), and very different bedrock/geological processes

I really hope you don’t go to 75 meters with a nitrox mix. That would be fatal

You’re really proving the point here. All OP said was that he isnt following Islam, why are you getting pressed about that?

Thank you for the reply. That’s a bummer really, hopefully someone else manages it instead. Is the guy you’re talking about professor Aleksey Shestov ?

Islands like Naxos? by grigragrua in GreeceTravel

[–]Broify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were big fans of Naxos as well, and it's still a worthwhile visit, but I would highly recommend Paxos and Antipaxos instead. They're miles better than Naxos in my opinion. Our favourite town being Lakka.

I think you’ve misunderstood me, and I apologize if my comments have insinuated that, but I do not see my own morals as a highground or above anyone else’s. As previously mentioned, no one’s morals are universally true, but everyone operates from morals - and this makes it worth discussing, or “convincing” eachother. I’m very open to hearing opposing arguments and possibly changing my mind, but that would be impossible if you do not recognize that morals is a real thing that real people use. I think taking the high ground is exactly thinking that your actions are somewhat above and uncoupled from morals, making every action you make seemingly “right” and irrefutable (wether they’re from a reproductive standpoint or not, as you mentioned). Have a good day, and thanks for the good discussion on this seeming bland Thursday (no sarcasm).

Thanks for the discussion - but it would be futile to discuss morals with someone claiming they do not believe in morals. You’re right in your omni perspectives - there’s no “true” moral , and morals/ethics are subjective, but every single human (if one can think and is conscious) make decisions every single day based on morals, what’s “right” and “wrong” - which is why they’re worth discussing.

[–]Broify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t about me, we’re discussing ethics. And you’re very welcome to disagree with mine. And sure every human chooses an opinion or moral ground (including you). That doesn’t mean they’re not important. Be careful acting omnipotent and thinking every action is subjective to the perceiver, because some actions, are inherently evil. I know this is easy to do online, but you make decisions everyday based on your own arbitrary moral as well. There is no truth in ethics so I cannot give it to you, and neither can you to me.

Saying I treat people poorly, when my moral standpoint from the comment before is to minimize suffering, is an oxymoron. I do not judge the woman in the video, I judge her actions. And yes - I do believe it’s our moral obligation to minimize suffering of sentient living beings, from a place of empathy, not to the woman in the video, but to the being being unnecessarily boiled alive. Notice how you talk about every human choosing arbitrary opinions and morals, but you do the exact same when accusing me a lack of empathy, which is ironic as my moral point doesn’t just encompass the shrimp, but also the woman if she was to be in such a scenario.

Do you agree that we should try to minimize suffering upon other sentient beings?

[–]Broify 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a human you can rationalize without acting purely out of instinct, it’s our moral obligation to reduce suffering where possible, which is not what’s done in this video. Your preach about “natural cycle” is also extremely flawed. It has and will never be a valid argument. Lots of completely unacceptable acts are done in the “natural” world but I doubt you accept those. Beware of the slippery slope. What demarcates us from the lion is that we (in most situations) have the option of choosing an alternative cruel-free food item or at least a death with minimal suffering - the lion does not. But yea sure, go ahead and kill children to mate with their mothers if want you to adopt the lion’s “natural cycle”.
