The video of her litany is somehow even crazier than this quote. It just gets worse and worse.


This is actually backwards. Autism undermines the ability to evaluate intentions, which vitiates moral reasoning. Fascinating research into how different brain regions contribute to ethical intuition. Here are some relevant lecture slides from MIT.

And now consider,

The correct answer to the first scenario is something like 6 out of 7, and the correct answer to the second is 1 out of 7. People with ASD answer low (2 or 3 out of 7) for both, focusing exclusively on outcomes.

Fun fact: if the air is dirty and the water is poisoned and all the plants and animals are dead, people will want to have lots of kids.


After this Trump debacle, I’m a lot less tolerant of average people. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.


It’s disgusting how much normies hate drugs, and how little they give a shit about mental health. If Matthew Perry were alive, he’d be the first to condemn a government that won’t let people imbibe whatever the fuck they want.
It was his right to kill himself. Fuck everyone who thinks otherwise, you despicable hypocritical monsters. Wanna help people like him? Legalize drugs. Provide mental health support and stop this ridiculous fanatical opprobrium against drug use. But anyone who supports these kinds of kangaroo court proceedings to imprison people who do and sell drugs certainly doesn’t care about human health or flourishing.
Seriously, one of the easiest ways to identify people who are philosophically and ethically illiterate is to ask them if drugs should be illegal.

The way a condition is described or detected and where we choose to draw and name the arbitrary color boundaries is a spectrum. The way we actually are in reality is a continuum (along many dimensions). Some Homo Sapiens are so morally unmotivated and self-obsessed, we say they have ASPD. Yet many people you know are morally unmotivated! Their insufficiencies fall somewhere on that continuum.

Harris had 73 million votes. Biden had 81 million. The population and consequently the number of democratic voters has also increased by several million.
If you do the very basic arithmetic, there are at least 10 million democratic voters who didn’t turn out in 2024. Hope that helps.


First of all, we had close to 100 million eligible non-voters. “Didn’t vote” is definitely the winner of this election. Secondly, those numbers are from projections and statistics. At least 10 million democrats who should have voted, didn’t.
That’s an interesting way to think about it.
