Humanity is one because Truth is one. Reason unites us. Deliberate in good faith even with madmen and tyrants… and the Good will follow.

This is what vaccine mandates are about. They gave you a warning. They explained the rules of the game. Did you watch it? Did you understand? Good Day… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTpcT60zA8I

Top comment: “Normally you don't have to pay when you are held hostage.”
“I think, therefore I am” is a proof of rational consciousness, but “I think that AI thinks” is a fundamentally different relation to “I think” being thought by AI: non-reflexive vis-a-vis reflexive, where only the latter relation denotes rational consciousness.

Any systemic incentivisation of identity-based “pride” is a set up. Those fringe groups who took the bait and promote “pride” in their abnormalities are being led to the slaughter, given enough rope and seduced to poke the dragon of the collective unconscious. In this sense, LGBTQ appears to be the same kind of operation as Ukraine.
Breaking NEWS. Dan Andrews unveils the new state logo: Victoria - the Sunshine State. The new dictum, “Victoria - The Sunshine State” will be included on all new vehicle number plates in the state of Victoria, and on all government letterheads. The Premier confirmed that public adherence to this new dictum will be carefully monitored by OSS and any disagreement, disparaging remarks or mockery will be included by the Office of State Security under mental health disorders Act and is considered a threat to public wellbeing.
Tattoos are ritualised self-mutilation, a symbolic manifestation of subconscious self-rejection, an antagonistic personality split induced by trauma. This will not fit every case, but the general causal pattern seems to be as follows: a) I hate you (my mother, or father, or brother etc.) for a traumatic experience you caused me; b) you were the symbol of humanity to me, my ideal, and you revealed yourself as an aberration, as a cause of my suffering; c) ‘therefore’, humanity for me is an aberration, a cause of suffering; d) I love myself, I am not an aberration, but I am human, therefore I hate myself, and I am an aberration; e) but I cannot believe this contradiction, I cannot acknowledge this, because I would go mad, I would cease to exist as a Self; f) therefore I will believe that I love myself, that I am pure and whole, and I will hate myself only symbolically, only my skin, not all of me.
Computer Models are not evidence of the facts they aim to simulate. Models are hypotheses.

How to become more Human:

- accept that you do not belong anywhere,
- assume that there are no likeminded people,
(you just have not realised your disagreements yet),
- acknowledge that you have no tribe,
- accept that you are probably wrong about most things,
- but you need others to make sense of it all.

That is a good place to start.
At this point in history, giving birth in the ocean is probably less risky than trusting the medical experts about what is healthy, especially those who meekly accepted the removal of the right to free medical consent.
There is not more truth to gender politics (male vs female) than to Labour vs Liberal (or Democrat vs Republican etc) politics. It is just ONE party pretending to be divided in order to sustain perpetual conflict and mutual blame game, so that the ruling power can move unobstructed by the rage of the masses. You fall into this trap because you are conflicted within yourself. We are all related. We are all conscious rational beings. Reason unites us.
This paper is under review since Dec 2020. This is how long it takes to publish an academic paper via the regular queue, and the result is typically a rejection. The acceptance rate for the top 10 philosophy journals is around 10%, which includes the invited submissions. The submitted manunoscript can be read here. https://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3883011
Sources of Authority

There are only two possible sources of authority: 1) consent of the ruled (can be implied or performative), 2) objective moral norms (for example, you see someone being murdered and you step in to overpower the killer). These two sources are not equi-valent. (2) always supersedes (1), so that even when you consented to political representation the mandate is not absolute; your consent is conditional on the representative’s adherence to the objective moral norms. Another way, something that is objectively wrong can never be a valid law or otherwise mandated. The challenge is of course to demonstrate, or better, formally prove, that a particular action or order is objectively wrong. This can be accomplished in at least 3 ways: a) by proving an inconsistency of moral commitments of the representative; b) by proving inconsistency of action or order with the mutually accepted norms; c) by proving that an action is a priori wrong or illogical.
Doctors who assert that a young (vaccinated) person who died “had no underlying health conditions” do not understand the medical concept of health. Vaccines, being artificial modifications of the immune system, are contrary to the species-typical innate characteristics that underpin the only consistent standard of Health, and are therefore of themselves an underlying health condition. https://blogs.bmj.com/medical-ethics/2021/03/30/is-transhumanism-a-health-problem/
Revising the utterly exhausted, tiresome illogicality of ethical veganism.

By eating animals we absorb them into our being, and thus elevate their meaningless animal existence as a source of energy for rational consciousness. Ethical veganism is perhaps best characterised as an ‘anthropomorphic emotional projection disorder’; nothing apart from rational consciousness can have moral status.

People who contradict themselves and do not want to know it are bad company. If you let them in they will betray you without even knowing, then blame you for it.
Another utilitarian argument trying to justify vaccine mandates for healthcare workers: https://jme.bmj.com/content/early/2022/04/26/medethics-2022-108229 The authors assert that “Healthcare workers have professional obligations to promote the interests of patients that entail exposure to greater risks or infringement of autonomy than ordinary members of the public.” I would like to see the proof of this outrageous claim. Does this preclude doctors from playing golf or going on holidays while there are patients awaiting care? Perhaps start with golf before injecting people against their will.
