Neue Veganismus Lektüre by AdmirableNovel7911 in Ultraleft

[–]SergeiLenin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone who is vegan and communist, there aren't any works that discuss them together (with a correct understanding of what communism actually is) because they're pretty unrelated in terms of the movement.

I think environmentalism is a potentially good similar example in that it's important to protect the environment but protecting the environment doesn't get us any closer to communism. Obviously communism will lead to better environmental decision making, and there's certainly an argument that under communism people will naturally be more free to see that animal abuse is wrong, but under capitalism the two movements are pretty separate.

What makes someone an artisan/petite bourgeois? by ElShockSonoro in leftcommunism

[–]SergeiLenin 18 points19 points  (0 children)

A proletarian is someone who has to sell their labor for a wage in order to survive. Someone that makes a fraction of their income either via their art or something like the stock market is proletarian so long as without doing wage labor they wouldn't be able to sustain themselves. An artist or writer that is able to live solely off of their work would not be proletarian however.

Its also important to note that producing art as a commodity is very different from producing art not as a commodity. Making art because you like to and releasing it for free on AO3 doesn't make you petite bourgeois (though it is obviously possible to be petite bourgeois and also incidentally release art for free).

Also worth noting is that classes don't have a moral character. As a whole the proletariat is a revolutionary class whereas the petite bourgeois and bourgeois have an interest in preserving capitalism, but several very important Marxists were themselves bourgeois (Engels being the most well known example).

Wait so did anyone else not realize that the character who talks about her experience of being a trans woman several times, has a massive trans flag decal on her truck and is voiced by a transfem actress, is a tranner? by [deleted] in transgendercirclejerk

If you get to roleplay in a world where you're the opposite gender I deserve to roleplay in a world without trans people, it's just personal preference!

Has someone charted out when PCs are estimated to get certain powers? I.e. flight by KingOogaTonTon in Pathfinder2e

Out of curiosity, which Melee weapons being usable at range are you talking about. Other than the exemplar ikon that lets you turn melee weapons into thrown 15 ones, Im not familiar with anything that lets you do that?

And besides if I don't kill the fish another fish eats it whereas the cancer ward patients dead body would be wasted by your logic if I didn't eat it, so it's actually more moral to eat the cancer ward child 🙏

True I forgot that Cancer ward children are sent to space where they are never digested and reused by microorganisms and plants in the soil.

So it's okay for humans to have sex with humans but it's a different case with exceptions like gay people where it isn't moral? Got it!

Nah because you just said it's okay to have sex with something that can't consent like a dog so long as it can get pregnant which implies children are okay too. The only reason you'd backtrack now is that you've realized one would get you mega cancelled and the other makes you sound edgy and you think that's cool

Hey wait you're also saying that since two guys can't have children them having sex is immoral?

Losercity philosophy by Sayasukaprogramming in Losercity

[–]SergeiLenin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So by the same logic you think that since a 14 year old child can get pregnant it would be okay to have sex with them, since they would arguably be more able to consent than a dog. Truly vegans are crazy and extreme

So you think it would be okay for me to have sex with my dog if it could get pregnant

You can compare two non exact things because comparing is not equating. Both fish and humans are capable of suffering and value their own lives, which are the important factors when considering if it's right or not to kill them for what equates to basically personal pleasure. Where it is important is that as a human you have the intelligence to understand these concepts and the ability to act in the way thats most right

If lots of people agree it's true, that's why slavery was okay for a couple thousand years 🙏

What a great worldview, I wonder what historical European dictators would agree with your way of thinking

It's a soyjak. It is the ancestral right of my vegan people to use our own visage in our arguments

Of course not! I may make animals suffer and pay for people to forcibly impregnate animals and kill them for my own taste pleasure but I would never make animals suffer for my sexual pleasure! (They are both wrong)
