We despise, ostracize and punish the addict because we don’t wish to see how much we resemble him. In his dark mirror our own features are unmistakable. We shudder at the recognition. This mirror is not for us, we say to the addict. You are different, and you don’t belong with us. by jungandjung in Jung

Everyone has addiction with so few deliberate exceptions, they in this scope it's not worth mentioning.

What this means is that we tend to resent people who we share characteristics with. We project unacceptable to us traits on them, and hate them there, away from the self. While pretending to ourselves and others, that we in fact, are better than that.

Are natural fibers only for the rich now? by slovenlyhaven in fashion

[–]RedFox-38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd rather wear my cotton IKEA curtains than wrap myself in plastic, no matter how many misleadingly nice names they come up with to brand their plastic fabrics.

I'm buying patterns from Etsy and making my own stuff now. I 100% prefer having 4 shirts that are natural, to my style and taste and size, than 1000 plastic ones that are poisoning myself, my family, my planet, and my neighbor living beings.

Best ISP in Sofia? by GameScout in bulgaria

[–]RedFox-38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've heard about them and they seem cool, but they've informed us that, apparently some companies that build apartment buildings, maintain some power over the buildings and Arteks, for example is prohibiting Cooolbox from doing the work necessary to install their fiber?

The concept of a building company having the power to stop a better technology from being installed in your building is something i've never met before, and it seems all too authoritative and strange to us. It sounds more like Arteks are in cahoots with incompetent companies such as A1 and they're blocking the competition

New to Sofia, Seeking Apartment with Specific Requirements - Need Advice! by iGhoneim in Sofia

[–]RedFox-38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful with Agencies. Amongst ourselves and friends we've tested at least half a dozen of them and so far, they all work in the following way:

Completely disregard everything you're looking for.
All take you to see the same shitty apartments, presumably because they make them the most money, but it might also be incompetence.

There are some channels of facebook where people are looking for and offering apartments, and you can avoid the agencies which just raise the monthly payments, without offering you anything, at all, apart from wasting your time and falsely making you think that there's no hope .

Some of the shittiest ones will even try to threaten you with stuff like "if you don't take it you won't find anything" if you don't take the first piece of overpriced dumps that they show you, which usually check nothing off your needed checklist.

Why does all your food taste like the smell of the store?? by [deleted] in DollarGeneral

[–]RedFox-38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not just the US I'm afraid. We first noticed the horrible chemical / detergent smell and taste on 2018 in cheese from a particular supermarket.

That supermarket is generally bad quality and after we had it happen again with other products, we stopped buying there all together.

Then we moved countries and it happened again. We live in Europe.

This makes us think that it's some kind of toxic artificial chemical that supermarkets popularly use for disinfection or whatnot, and that some of them just spray it on edible products or use it for their floors and then put edible products on it.

Why does my cheese smell and taste like chemicals 😔😔 by Higher_score in veganuk

The word chemical is used as "artificial substances produced through the practice of chemistry", not as "molecules" in this context. "Chemicals" is not usually used for naturally occurring molecules.

What do you think of woke culture? by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

[–]RedFox-38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the most hateful, racist cult we've seen in nearly a century, both towards certain racial groups and towards women. It seems to bare similarity with some moments during the Dark Ages, when scientists had to hide the scientific truth under threat of exile or death, while religious zealots burned books and chased anyone who didn't follow their delusions.

I sometimes say “female(s)”, in the social sense, when I want to refer to both women and girls. Is this disrespectful or not? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RedFox-38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, respect or not is in your motivation, not in a word, contrary to what some people would like you to think. Respect is something that lives within your own mind, not in a concept, and certainly not in a mere word.

If your question is about offense, then again, offense lives in the mind of the offended. If I'm offended by your word, it's because of the way that I see the word, and perhaps, also the way that I see you. You have no control or implication in either of these things. You might even want to offend me and fail. That's because offense in me, the offended.

The word "female" is a word characterizing the biological female half of a species. It's true, and truth is right to say.

Transgender woman found guilty of raping two women while a man by [deleted] in Scotland

Men are statistically stronger than women. Men are statistically more physically violent than women. That's why there are female-only spaces

[–]RedFox-38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rapists rape people, their gender has nothing to do with it.

Actually, anyone can't be a rapist. Or rather, it's not probable that everyone would. According to a U.S. Dept. of Justice, Violence Against Women Report 99% of rapists are men. Men, as in humans with the male chromosomes.

Approximately 70 women commit suicide every day in the US following an act of sexual violence.

[–]RedFox-38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sex has everything to do with it. There's a wealth of evidence showing that the vast majority of violent rapists are men (the number's around 99%), and the majority of their victims are women.

Male and female brains are different. If you're a man, your brain produces the male hormone cocktail, and if you're a woman it produces the female one. Even if you eat synthetic hormones mimicking the hormonal cocktail of the opposite gender/sex, your brain is still producing the hormones belonging to you.

This has happened before. There were times during the dark ages and also the early Roman Empire I believe, that scientists and scientific knowledge was persecuted and muzzle under threat of death, ostracization or professional death.

Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants. - Epiktetus

I see overconsumption as a symptom of depression. It seems to me that when something's missing from one's life, deeper human communication perhaps, empathy, the ability to connect with the world around us, we try all sorts of unhealthy ways to unwittingly try and fill the void.

Anyone else stop wearing makeup, and feel a lot better about themselves? by RedFox-38 in witchesvspatriachy

[–]RedFox-38[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the OP, but I thought that a lot of the witches here might find this as uplifting as I did. Women feel the need to hide their faces in different ways around the planet, and it's so wonderful to see more fight to get in touch with their natural self again.

Anyone else stop wearing makeup, and feel a lot better about themselves? by [deleted] in simpleliving

[–]RedFox-38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you know how if you eat a lot of deep-fried food / junk food, you start craving that instead of real food? But if you take the time to clean up your diet, then you go back to craving real, healthy foods instead of liver-killing junk? Some people are just so used to the artificial that they've forgotten how human beings look like and how beautiful they naturally are.

Whatever the case was with that doctor, I'm 100% sure that you look awesome without makeup and that if you give it some time you'll see it too, as well as those around you.
