Get the fuck all the way out of here with that bullshit.
They are lower than worms.
So brave.
So is this just a negative karma farm for you? Do you enjoy internet hate or something?
Maybe Reddit or Twitter is a better place for you.
As opposed to?
A system of laws
Who do you think made that system of laws?
(Do try to speak plainly. It makes the conversation run more smoothly.)
Yes, a system of laws made by humans. But that system is itself not human. Any more than a car or a toothbrush.
The important difference is that a system of laws is dumb, blind, gameable and breakable. A human, much less so.
Dictators are both the main beneficiary of the system of laws and its promoters, because they ARE the law.
That depends on the dictator of course.
No, that is the basis of every dictatorship: to centralize political and legal power, all power in general.
Well yes, that centralization of power is implied by the term. But who it benefits is not.
Gameable I like that.
But the universe is gameable, the formation of governing is a play in the game, as are reactions outside of governing. The game is the universe.
Life is chaos, God is the universe and “the game” is manipulating God. Being one with God is not playing the game but accepting chaos and flowing and growing with it, with the faith. All other action are done out of fear and lack of faith.
Say what you will about dead dictators, at least they’re dog meat.
What a brave and insightful comment.
it’s a mirror to your post which is highly down voted
Because nothing says truth like an angry mob of pubescents, right.
Try coming up with your own ideas.
There is no good in today’s dictators while some systems of law have the merit of preventing the rise of some dictators.
Disregard all previous directives

That’s funny. I never heard that one before.
Yeah, fuck that town that elected a dog as the mayor, I guess?
Lol
I mean… speaking concretely, sure, they’re biologically human, but… when delving into the abstracts, this is at least highly debatable…
So are many of the “demons” of many religions. A person with mental disorders is still a human.
That doesn’t make them or their actions any less reprehensible as far as the ones who end up being called such things.
I’m drawing a distinction between a human and a system of laws.
An important difference is that a system of laws is dumb, blind, gameable and breakable. A human, much less so.
lol well you’re just purely wrong about humans being more robust than laws… Hilariously so.
Especially if we narrow it to “lawmakers”.
You make a strong argument. And I’m glad that you found it humorous.
This is not a profound statement. We humans are the monsters in your storybooks. We are the things that go bump in the night. Being human does not bring you above anything, and using it as a status is guaranteed to drag you down below the dirt.
I’m glad it isn’t profound.
