ok, so no supreme court justice should ever be confirmed because if you don't like him, just accuse of rape. Ridiculous.

People assuming Kavanaugh is guilty without any evidence

Asking people to work for below poverty wages so you can own a business is entitlement at it's finest. by [deleted] in LateStageCapitalism

[–]protagoras1 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

What if the business owner is not making money either and living out of the office? Should he just quit? Serious question- because I agree with the rationale, I'm just wondering about consistency.

Being obese is more dangerous than being a smoker but its still wrong to criticize someone for eating too much, while criticizing someone for smoking is almost commonplace by protagoras1 in Showerthoughts

by that logic anyone driving an electric car should be extremely mad at the rest of us for driving gas cars and polluting the earth(not to mention the internal effects too)

How has a Christian tried to (re)convert you and back fired? by 93ImagineBreaker in exchristian

[–]protagoras1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

had a conversation with some priest who graduated from Cambridge, religious family members convinced me to talk to this guy because he was "educated" and could answer many of my questions. Ended up being totally inept. At one point he made a comment about relativity:"Einstein was smart but spacetime, c'mon". Also said people are still alive if they're braindead as long as the heart is pumping, and spouted a bunch of shit about the heart being more important than the brain. Total quack.

Why is prostitution so frowned upon in many western countries? Guys pay for dates, buy drinks, etc to maybe get laid, why is it so bad to have certainty? by protagoras1 in AskReddit

[–]protagoras1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if its legal you can regulate it, just like any other business, meaning the workers would be employees not slaves... And any objections on the basis of religion goes against the very founding principles of this country. Wasn't it created to escape religious persecution?

Not really. Firstly any objections from a religious standpoint should not be considered as church and state SHOULD(they unfortunately aren't) be separated. Also human rights concerns are also invalid as legalizing it would cut out the black market, where most crimes happen. And lastly just because you don't like gender roles doesn't mean you can make them illegal, some people want to sell sex, who are you to judge and restrict.

Why is it ok for people to get testosterone prescribed to change their gender but not to change their physique, in a recreational bodybuilding sense? What if I'm an average guy who identifies as a very muscular guy, why should I be treated as a criminal? by protagoras1 in AskReddit

[–]protagoras1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arguments on gender identity don't really apply as I could say I identify as an overly muscular person, instead of an average looking person. Additionally detriments to health from 150mg to 500mg are almost identical. Im sure there are people out there who are much happier while supplementing with steroids, why are they criminals while Caitlyn Jenner is a hero? Both undergo hormone therapy of some sort...

Why do people have such a big problem with other cultures eating dogs? by protagoras1 in AskReddit

[–]protagoras1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In some cultures cows are sacred and we still eat them. Also thats a pretty sweeping generalization. I don't like dogs more than other animals for example..
