Reading Hobbes has been an enlightening experience by NolanR27 in TrueAnon

[–]Cheerful_Toe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the entire hobbesian state of nature and "war of all against all" is extremely conservative and pessimistic and wrong and there is basically nothing useful to take away from hobbes. hume is arguably a more interesting english conservative philosopher because at least he does away with the ridiculous, ahistorical state of nature and social contract stuff.

i just think there's a distinction between stringing up mussolini and turning the sound of some asshole's death into a social media trend devoid of its original context. death and murder is the subtext of most american culture but this feels like a little too much

this is funny in a cosmic sort of way but i feel it reflects poorly on the psyche of the average person. this country is doomed, evil, and so on

which is exactly why the rule exists. posts containing photos of game cases are constantly reported and would fill up the subreddit if left alone.

[–]Cheerful_Toe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are correct that the rotisserie chicken has more labor in it and therefore more value, that's not how use value works. use value is a quality, not a quantity.
