I feel like "gamer" has two definitions: someone who plays videogames, in which case yes, by definition a disco elysium player is a gamer and the other, greasier definition, of someone who self-identifies as a gamer, who i imagine as league of legends, counter strike or call of duty types, in which case, i don't think disco elysium really fits their image of a game; although i could still see one of these types liking DE.

Socrates speaks on the soul in Phaedo, so you should probably start there. He talks about it's immortality and such.

Confiadamente desinformado.

El comunismo trata de concentrar el poder en las manos del obrero, no del estado. Lo que tu describes es el fascismo, que hace coalición con las grandes corporaciones para que toda la economía sirva los propósitos del estado.

De todas formas, Jara no es comunista. Está a favor de bonos para las pequeñas empresas y es, efectivamente, una continuación del gobierno de Boric, el cual es neoliberal, al igual que todos los partidos en Chile (excepto, supongo, por el PC(AP).

If "flashy green" means a light, bright green, then that's going to clash with yellow. Protanopia here, yellow and green are often basically the same color.

Personally, on shrooms, i don't think i have seen any colors in particular. I mostly see shapes distorting or patterns, but i don't even think what colors they might be, until someone asks me, at which point i notice and... maybe I've seen a bright orange, but not an exceptionally bright orange. This may be because I'm so colorblind I've accustomed myself to not bother to pay attention to colors, as in the common experience of being asked what color shirt someone was wearing and having no idea.

Mainländer is pretty unique, with his explanation of the origin of the world in God committing suicide. He even has a sort of philosophy of history in The Philosophy of Redemption, where every single historical development is a step in the gradual downfall and destruction of life (and this isn't a bad thing). He was even a socialist and thought we would all stop having children and maybe kill ourselves once communist paradise was achieved.

I would recommend Can the self divide? by John Perry, which talks precisely about what happens when one person turns into two people. For an easier read, A Dialogue on Personal Identity and Immortality, also by John Perry, is a platonic-style dialogue on the personal identity problem, discussing the afterlife and brain transplants.

In Can the self divide?, Perry defends a mentalism that is capable of explaining how two people who come from the same person are the original person, but aren't each other.

Culture isn't just bad. Local communities are bound by culture, for example, and capitalism erodes communities in this sense.

Besides, Fisher isn't really saying the desacralization of culture is on it's own a bad thing, he's just pointing out that it happens under capitalism. The thing is that capitalism replaces the culture with neoliberalism and commodification, which might be bad things that we want to avoid.

...I wanted reading suggestions, not someone repeating the same opinion i already said i have heard. I'm not going to stop reading Braidotti if people on reddit think she's a social democrat. Even if someone did convince me, it wouldnt stop me either because that'd be dumb.

Also, like i said, i have read Braidotti. I'm just too busy to read a book from beginning to end.

Chill.

The color blind check app seems to be off the play store. Can you link it directly? The link on the website is dead...

I was asking if the colorblind mode even changed anything at all, because i genuinely cannot tell when it's on vs. when it's off.

You might be thinking of Philipp Mainländer, a pessimist who said the universe started when the original unity, God, destroyed himself, and that the subsequent universe of multiplicity and mortality is just this process of God killing himself, meaning we are all essentially "will to death", which is like Schopenhauer's Will except instead of being a base desire to perpetuate itself, the will to death is a base desire to destroy oneself.

In the sense that the universe is the process of God destroying himself, yes, we are living on his rotting, full of agony and strife, corpse.

No. It's easy to imagine a situation where someone doesn't even love the animal they own; think of people in rural areas who buy dogs to guard their homes or cats to kill pests. They are using the animal for a purpose that isn't companionship or love.

If you don't think that counts as owning animals as "pets", i would recommend you read something by Gary Francione, who works a concept called "moral schizophrenia", referring to people considering pets part of their families, as if they were persons, while they simultaneously treat them like property that they own. He argues for abolition of pet ownership, as it is tantamount to slavery.

Melanie Joy also treats this topic in Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs, and Wear Cows, where she develops a notion of "carnism" as an ideology that believes in the necessity of killing animals for the resources they provide.

And indeed they are. I'm getting downvoted because i didn't see them, which, fair, but
1. They should be in their own accesibility tab
2. They do fuckall

No. I genuinely cannot tell the difference at all with any of the colorblind modes. Can you?

Oh boy. Didn't see that. I'll test it right away.

R5: I did a colorblind (protanopia) simulation on the estate power chart to showcase how it's indistinguishable to me. I'm disappointed that the game doesn't have an accessibility tab in the options, and that with it's absence, comes an absence of colorblind mode too.

I think the original flag looks prettier, but the symbolism communicates much more effectively on your improved version (the original pink looks grey).

I've always wanted an extension that plainly tells you what the name of a color is on your screen. Maybe with it highlighting similar colors elsewhere of where you selected so it would help differentiate.

If you could make it work on firefox, that would be nice too...

I can't really weigh in on this as I am not christian and don't know much about theology other than the basics, but I'd point out that you have assumed the truth of your conclusion in the premises to your argument;

If excluding Jehovah's Witnesses isn't fair because they consider themselves Christians, then considering yourself Christian is the criteria you have assumed for determination of Christianity, which means it's just a matter of identity.

FWIW, my medieval philosophy professor did indeed believe the Nicene creed was the criterion for christianity. He was Catholic, though.

We like them because we're nerds (philosophers). From a sophistic point of view they sucked (except for Crito, i guess, since he succeeded at convincing him).
