The dude never existed but had he existed he wouldn’t have said that and has he said that he wouldn’t have meant it the way you think he did.

The Roman state religion worshipped the emperor. His face was on the currency. Monotheistic people are obviously going to take issue with this. About 2/3rds of the population there thought it was fine, just using money not worshipping a human, 1/3rd thought it was totally not fine and you couldn’t use the currency. However, everyone agreed that in the temple you had to change the coins.

Ok so Paul’s followers were running his fund raising stuff and this controversy was still lingering when the author of Mark came on the scene, despite the temple being burned down. Mark needed the fundraising to continue and needed people to think Paul was the best shit ever. So he made Jesus weight in on the issue and weight in in such a way that would apply to the modern times with no temple around.

No analogy is perfect but imagine if Ted Cruz claimed to have found a secret document that George Washington wrote saying that the Bill of Rights doesn’t apply to abortion. That was roughly what was going on.

Even if there were a historical Jesus and he historically took this side on this issue that doesn’t mean he was taking a side on a related issue that hadnt happened yet.

Worst. Neighbor. Ever

“I know you are but what am I”

I design process control equipment for a living and you are 100% correct. When the controller/PLC dies or the power goes out everything goes to a safe state that protects the human. Big part of the design decisions.

It sounds like a porn star name of a Russian actress. Da my name is Slut-sky and I really need help with my plumbing.

If your name is Slutsky you should just give up on life

Because it isn’t real. Unlike the very real humans who died doing this and the very real humans running Saudia Arabia who allowed this to happen.

No. That would involve the general public maintaining a consistent position.

I want knowledge to be free. That means free. That means governments, businesses, NGOs, your local church sewing circle, AIs/LLMs, refugees living in tents, convicts, children, and any other humans or human organizations or anything humans built.

I am willing to accept a LIMITED duration copyright and patent and private science publication system if it could be reformed such that it the brains behind it were paid and couldn’t legally sign away their compensation. Given that we as a society aren’t willing to build this the best course of action is to actively work to break copyright

The Supreme Court and you know how they will rule.

So you are saying I was wrong before?

I see. So you say that any prediction about the future is subjective, except of course this prediction that you are making now? Every rule has en exception, except this rule, but if it doesn’t it does and if it does than it doesnt.

Not to date you too badly but 2500 years ago is when we figured out that everythinf is subjective leads to contradictions.

Hmm is this a true statement no matter what people think of it?

You know I am good with just getting my ass out of the car and walking a short distance to get my 4000 calorie meal. I am fine without implementing an entire protocol

There is no objective truth.

Hmm is this a true statement no matter what people think of it?

This is for the deniers

You made a claim.

Do you really think any deniers are now convinced?

Over a century of data pouring in but this act will be what convinces them?

Yes exactly. Everyone on earth that doesn’t like the idea of paint being sprayed on it is also pushing for a motorway to be built right through it. No exceptions, no questions, no quarter

Spent the whole day doing things about it at my job.

They won’t do that. That would involve being killed. There is a reason why Peta throws red paint on old ladies wearing fur and not on biker gangs wearing leather.

The very worst thing the UK government is going to do is throw them in jail for a few months, maybe a small fine.

Because most protests are about making the lives of normal people miserable until they’re pissed enough to hold someone to task.

And how is that working for you? How is diet-terrorism panning out?
