So you're saying we should impose a blanket ban on something that comes entirely naturally to us as a species because your nostrils might not find it so pleasing? Should we ban ugly people from public viewing as well, with respect to your poor eyes?
Honestly, were defecating in public...
I'd vote to legalize consensual...anything, really. Who am I to tell you what you can and can't do so long as those actions have no effect on me whatsoever?
46 pages in, I'm sure somebody's already said this, but...
Advocates of free-market capitalism do tend to be savagely mislead in that way. I always get a good chuckle when I see these right-wing libertarians on TV, all up in arms about the welfare state and people "living off of the hard work...
We should be.
And the creases in our pants don't?
If you actually believe this to be true you have an appallingly poor understanding of what "human nature" entails. Strapping a Huggies on your toddler is not exactly something that's characteristic of all humans at all times.
Well, exactly.
Encouraged? No. Allowed? Absolutely. What valid reason could there possibly be to tell someone that the flesh and bone he or she was born in is "inappropriate" for public witnessing? It's only natural.
Sarkozy proclaimed that this prohibition of the burqa is wholly in the interest of female dignity. In the interest of female dignity? What exactly is more degrading to a woman's dignity than dictating to her what she can and cannot wear?
Your Dominant Intelligence Is Intrapersonal Intelligence
Reflective and thoughtful, you enjoy spending time alone. You are good at analyzing yourself - and knowing your true feelings. Totally self aware, you are in tune with your dreams and desires. A spiritual and philosophical person, your...

As an asexual, for me, sex is exceptionally, radically, terrifically inconsequential, and though I've no qualms whatsoever with those who regard it as being of great importance, I feel we now exist, dismally, in a tremendously oversexualized and superficial society.
We're railing against the libertarianism/minarchism/anarcho-capitalism espoused by Austrian authors such as Ludwig Von Mises, Friedrich Hayek and Murray Rothbard - all of whom Ron Paul admittedly admires and the works of whom he admittedly bases his political philosophy around. We most certainly...
Meh. Anybody can learn to play a solo like that if they're willing to spend hours and hours every day sitting in their bedroom with a metronome, practicing scales, even a child. It's another thing to have the creative capacity to actually write a good song. Kind of like how all these singers you...
Because I've come to recognize that capitalism is the root cause of so very many of the world's most prominent difficulties.
As in, what particular "branch" of socialism do I "belong" to? I am a Marxist-Leninist wholly committed to anti-revisionism (Marx/Engels -> Lenin -> Stalin -> Hoxha)...
This is not true at all. From "About the attitude of the working party toward the religion" by Comrade Lenin:
"Religion is the opium of the people: this saying of Marx is the cornerstone of the entire ideology of Marxism about religion. All modern religions and churches, all and of every kind...
