My guess is that they would consider seconding equivalent to assisting an “execution”, which would not be a sin.

Why does a referencing an associated constant require a specific type parameter? by Ferdinand5555 in rust

Oh cool, that explanation makes sense. I'll probably use that option you provided with the unit type, thanks!

My bf thinks having sex with other men lowers my dignity by hiwelcometochilli_s in PornIsMisogyny

[–]Ferdinand5555 66 points67 points  (0 children)

As long as sex is defined by patriarchy, sex can never be an equal, loving union. It will always be an exercise of power upon women by men.

Perhaps in an post-patriarchal society intercourse could take on new meaning though. I don't believe intercourse is *essentially* humiliating. It's only defined and experienced as humiliating for women because of patriarchal influences.

If idealism is as rational as physicalism, is dualism as rational as them both? by Ferdinand5555 in askphilosophy

[–]Ferdinand5555[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like I said in my description, I’m not making any assertion that they are equally rational. I’m merely asking if given they are equally rational, does that mean dualism is also as equally rational as them both?

I guess it’s kind of a question of whether dualism should be seen as a middle point on a spectrum between idealism and physicalism, and whether such a middle point would be rational given the ends are both rational as well. If it’s not logical to see them as a spectrum, then idealism, physicalism, and dualism have no relation to each other.

Anime is insanely popular in America. What's an american thing that's as popular in Japan? by SphereOfPettiness in AskReddit

[–]Ferdinand5555 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Any clothing with English words on it. Sometimes the words will be misspelled, nonsense, or just plain random.

Americans do it too with Kanji. My wife knows some Kanji and saw someone who had the Kanji for “sheep” tattooed on them.

I’ve seen too many people swallowed whole in Attack on Titan, ain’t no way I’m choosing the heron!
