but as much as you loath it (and this was my point from up-thread) you won't defy it when a fuckwad, with a signature, codifies wokism as law...if the fuckwad sez no more bad talk about muslims or islam, you'll abide, even though you know it's bad law
that's what I don't understand, veg
What would you expect me to do? The most I can do is write about it when the opportunity arises and hope that others can see a reasoned argument. Political Correctness has the whole population in a stranglehold--EVERYWHERE.
It's not just muslims of course. You can't criticise ANY 'PROTECTED GROUP' because apparently those people breathe a different air from the rest of us. People get arrested in the UK for saying that men can't be women.
mebbe, I'm suggestin' you ought to resist what you know is wrong...or not...that's solely your call
Define 'resist' then. You expect me to blow up the houses of parliament?
Wokies and 'protected groups' (gee, I didn't know that islam was so powerless and helpless that it needs special laws to 'protect' it) exploit 'hate speech' laws to control and intimidate populations. Of course, those same laws NEVER apply to themselves.

in context, resist means not complyin'...against the law to speak the truth about islam? speak it anyway...illegal to point out men cannot turn into women? point it out anyway...illegal to leave your home without a mask? go out maskless anyway...here, we call it civil disobedience

I wouldn't fare well in prison. Sorry, but I'm not the martyr type. A salmon, yes, but martyr no.

To say that someone has ethical ownership of themselves doesn't mean they have actual ownership in any meaningful sense.

do you belong to you?

Belonging seems to intend what Ought, to be distinguished from what Is. Yes, i Ought to belong to myself, but no, i don't have Actual ownership of myself. The government has more certainty of access and control of me and my life than i do, which is a major fucking problem.

You can't just <poof> meaningful control from the universe just by intending it or dreaming it into being. In the final analysis you're not in control of anything, you're the rider on the elephant.

well, if that's how you see it, I leave you to it

That doesn't address the issue of feeling like we do have control.

I have addressed it...you addressed it...we dismissed one another...what else is there to say?

Lacewing belongs to herself (even if she thinks otherwise)
Your arrogance is ignorance. What does this idea of belonging even mean? You're just making up shit to feel like you're more in control than you are.
I would agree that we are (typically) each responsible for ourselves to some degree, but the idea of ownership is just weird. You are a small part of an immense natural system, from which you cannot detach yourself. You were made from that system, you are influenced by that system continually, you are dependent on that system continually, and your body and mind are going to do what they do within and based on that system whether "you" always approve/agree or not.
The inaccurate and skewed nature of claims you've made on this forum clearly demonstrate how influenced and driven you are by particular noise and madness, and how adaptable and controlled you are with certain agendas. So I don't know how/why you're so proud of claiming ownership for yourself. It would seem more realistic and advantageous for you to acknowledge that you don't know any better. From that position, you might actually start listening and considering what is beyond your current limited notions.
