it’s almost like we’d make better pets than masters.

that’s the question we all have to collectively answer, so i’m asking you now in the hopes that others will see what you say. i don’t want to put words in people’s mouths, i just want them to talk it out.

so what is the most logical step if we are to avoid a global catastrophe?

i can’t tell if this is supposed to be sarcasm or not but this is godawful moral advice.

“stay comfy and forget about it if you can”

do we or do we not have an obligation to be stewards of the earth? obviously the decision is a personal one. i guess i’ve decided with my post existential thoughts that we do, and that if you don’t agree with me, i don’t want you on my team. or the planet for that matter.

but those that aren’t receptive are literally the problem. american politics has been a 60/40 split with unequal representation for decades. the gears of government are locked in a bitter struggle where not enough is getting done and the problems keep piling up.

and how do you deal with that?

what do any of us do when logical, good faith arguments fail and the future of the world depends on convincing idiots that the sky is blue? serious question.

did the current, living Amish oppress them? did I? did you? who is the “you” in your sentence?

they were all born there. we need to stop considering ancestors and consider the living.

agreed. technically, both are native.

good lord. so thankful to be me.

Let anon go camp in the woods for a week and report back.

oklahoma. drop it into a blender and start over.

watch out. we’re in an incel feeding area.

anons are far from puppies. anons should probably be kicked regularly on general principle.

i’m on the spectrum myself, but i was raised before awareness was widespread. i overcame it, and i’m thankful because it’s a lonely place inside my head compared to the joy of sharing interactions with people IRL.

yes, but that assumes that there is some human quality to the internet. yes, we post emojis and people love cat pics, but there’s still something inherently plastic about all of this - something deeply human that is lost in binary translation, which is why it’s important that we hold on to simple things like using our voices and making eye contact IRL.

when yall stop making eye contact, you’ve truly lost your humanity
