@Onionkink da fuck? Star Trek is about one dominant colonizing culture that keeps minorities supressed until they are willing to assimilate into the sstarfleet culture.

@c @solidsanek
But... was it an honest take?

If so, why are you mad for me expressing my honest opinion with "let's be honest"?

@wolfie @allison @mewmew @amerika

I think this describes modern politics as best as possible.

You have 3 primary ideological drivers.
1) Equity.
Equity is the primary driving force of the left. They see any inequity, and see fit to destroy it even if that inequity is caused by differenci in hard work/lazyness.

That is why they have no problems with open discrimination.

2) Stability.
Stability is the main driving force of the right. As long as a rule, no matter how authoretarian, can insure further stability, it is good. Because in a stable society, people can live their lives at piece.

As a result, they might discriminate against you, but only, when you are activelly destabilizing the society.

3) freedom (libertarian)
Enough said. If you fuck with me, I will fight. Libertarians believe, that the least government intervention in their lifes is the best option, as long as the basics of law and order can be sustained.

Neither right nor the left is for freedom, but left does attack it non-stop, while the right only sometimes...

@amerika @allison @mewmew
I said RULES... LAWS... I am against discrimination in any way. Let the lazy, sick and retarded fail. That is the equality under the law.

Subsidies are the exact oposite. I have no idea how can you jump from one concept to another so easilly.

@amerika @allison @mewmew
Equality and equity are two different concepts. I am for parity of rights based on unified rules. I am definitelly against stealing from the hard working people only so single moms can continue to push out babies and abusing them while still having enough money to travel without spending a single day at work in their lives.

@amerika @allison @mewmew
Leftism is egalitarianism. It has no other philosophy.

Now that is bullshit. There is nothing egalitarian about open discrimination the left is advocating for. There is nothing egalitarian about stealing money and giving it to the lazy.

Leftists might be commies, but not libertarian.

@mewmew @amerika @LukeAlmighty Northeast Asia's had a good amount of cultural conservatism without conventional religion. It might not be quite the same as religious conservatism, but there is a certain logic to more conservative social behaviors. Interestingly in the US the social conservative response to Covid has been associated with the political left as opposed to the right. But in many respects Boomers were more liberal than Millennials in practice in their personal habits.

@amerika @allison @mewmew
Now here you have fighting words. How the fuck do you want to throw libertarians to the authoretarian left?

@allison @mewmew @amerika
You know that is bullshit right? We have 39 percent of population atheistic and it has no negative effect on conservatism.. (on the contrary actually)

@mewmew @LukeAlmighty

Most people see it backward: we are religious to have culture.

More likely: we have culture, and that includes but is not limited to religion.

@mewmew @amerika
Not what I saw in christian school. Most religious people I met were more likely to believe and activelly push all kind of SJW BS. Not to mention it is kind of pushed in the bible aswell.

@mewmew @amerika If you live in religious-majority country, why do you even mention it?

In here, most conservatives I know are atheist.

Ant sorry, but "regresives" is taken by the left. you cannot use the same word for both sides.
