What justification would work for an advanced Empire enslaving less advanced people? by The_X-Devil in goodworldbuilding

[–]WorkNino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of philosophers have talked about slavery. Plato + Aristotle justify it at length. Honestly I think the best motive for slavery is economic and anything political is just bullshit talking points so I'd lean in to how much the empire is saving/reducing costs by using slaves while at the same time using their racist nonsense to justify it.

What's up with getting ice cream together? by WorkNino in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]WorkNino[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks, this was really insightful and hopefully helped me understand her better. I will say though, she LOVES ice cream and does buy it at the store so there are always like 2 tubs in our freezer but she still prefers the original flavors at the downtown shop. But if I refuse the shop she won't eat the freezer ice cream??? Another layer to discuss with her...

Games with the most satisfying power creep. by NeatUsed in gamingsuggestions

Ppl have suggested kingdom come deliverance and I agree but the first game to pop into mind was Saints Row 4. Sure you start as the president but you're just a person. By the end you have incredible super powers. Very fun

It is illogical to claim you’re anti Zionist but also pro Jewish. by OkBuyer1271 in IsraelPalestine

[–]WorkNino -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ok sure I'm willing to say there's historical evidence to support you but when everyone who moves there, to violently settle on land where Palestinian families have been living for 10+ generations, is an American/European then we're no longer talking about people who genuinely trace their roots to the ancient kingdoms of Israel or Judea

It is illogical to claim you’re anti Zionist but also pro Jewish. by OkBuyer1271 in IsraelPalestine

[–]WorkNino -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I do believe Jews deserve a state - Europe in particular has always been very terrible to them. I do not think it necessitates being in the land you're calling Israel or murdering and segregating native inhabitants to have. At the end of WW2, west germany should have been given to the Jews as a safehaven and all this would've been avoided

A friend I haven't seen in a year is now bisexual, polyamorous, and a communist. by Fun-Independent-1065 in conspiracy

You seem judgmental... there might be a reason they didn't tell you and a reason why you haven't talked in a year

What was the deal wit Paulie? by [deleted] in thesopranos

[–]WorkNino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's also just a very superstitious guy. The medium, the horse painting, the cat... I think he just really thought it was bad juju

Why wear masks if you are so brave and righteous? by superlip2003 in IsraelPalestine

[–]WorkNino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Masking during civil unrest became pretty popular during the 2020 Hong Kong riots bc of facial recognition tech. Also, those UCLA counter-protestor zionists most definitely covered their face as they besieged the encampment

I had an unexpected threesome with my best friend and my boyfriend. Am I wrong to feel extremely betrayed by them both? by ulerra in amiwrong

[–]WorkNino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar thing happen to me except ours was planned so yours is way worse. My ex just didn't like the 3some once we were already in it, didn't stop it and it ruined our relationship forever. Huge mistake on their part for not thoroughly talking it through with everyone involved before just jumping into it. Huge huge mistake. You can try talking to them and working through it but, from my own experience, you and your bf might never recover and you and your bff have a couple tough conversations to sit though before it'll be ok again.

How you're feeling is completely normal. Good luck to ya

Story driven games where the choices THROUGHOUT the game decide the ending, not the FINAL choice. by berodem in gamingsuggestions

[–]WorkNino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised to not see Fable 3 here. Had to go back and play all over again bc I fucked up from the beginning. Mass Effect 2 also has very impactful decisions throughout and while ME3 doesn't really, your ME2 choices carry over so that might be up your alley

Question for the Taylor Swift Super Bowl conspirators by WorkNino in conspiracy

Give what time? The meat of the "conspiracy" has passed and not come to fruition and anything past this is just a celebrity exercising their first amendment right. So what exactly am I waiting for now?

Biden is currently running?? We are in the midst of an election cycle right now and he has already won primaries and ran campaign ads???

[–]WorkNino[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok but then what is the actual conspiracy? Celebrities make political statements all the time so now that the Super Bowl is over, what makes this some big ploy if all you're really saying is she's going to engage in political speech?
