We speak with moral philosopher Susan Neiman, author of the new book
"Call It Evil: Understanding the Trump Era".
Neiman argues that evil
— far from being an outdated religious concept
— is a vital way to understand how injustice works in the world.
The Trump administration’s abusive policies have been aided by a general reluctance to call them out as evil,
part of how people are “brainwashed … by the idea that morality is for losers, suckers, f…

The morally bankrupt, culturally bankrupt, intellectually bankrupt Supreme Leader in Bad Taste ruins yet another piece of prime real estate. He hires only the "best people" to indulge his ego.

The reflecting pool saga is just such a parable for what happens when you sideline real experts and replace them with hubris. 

I had to see it for myself. Yes it’s green, although not radioactively so. Yes, the liner is already peeling, and it’s getting worse. I could see the edge sway in the eddies and currents along the 1.5x1.5 foot hole exposing the slab beneath. 

I know a pool guy who may be able to fix it for 14 billion dollars. …

Nachdem wir jetzt sehen, welches Verhalten von Spahn dazu führt, daß die Union ihn loswerden will, und welches nicht (Maskendeals, geheime Treffen mit Thiel, dubiose Villenkäufe, …), können wir daraus durchaus Rückschlüsse auf die öffentlich vertretene Moral der Partei (und ihrer Wählys) ziehen – und das heißt: was als läßliche Sünde und was als wirklich schlimm gilt.
Und auch erstaunlich, wie schnell das plötzlich ging.
Vielleicht können wir daraus ableiten, was die AfD anstelle…

Berufliche Unfähigkeit (Krankenkassen) und Korruption (Maskendeals) reichen also nicht aus, um aus dem Job zu fliegen. Es braucht eine Frau im Ausland und ein Baby, damit es dann via „Moral“ funktioniert? Erbärmlich

Donno what’s worse, the verse itself or DuckDuckGo’s generated explanation of it. @… partyon.xyz/@nando161/11692511

Understanding Ephesians 6:5
Key Instruction
The verse from Ephesians 6:5 emphasizes the following points regarding the relationship between slaves and their earthly masters:
• Obedience: Slaves are instructed to obey their masters.
• Respect and Fear: This obedience should be accompanied by respect and a sense of reverence.
• Sincerity of Heart: Service should be genuine, not merely for show or to gain favor.
Spiritual Context
• Serving Christ: The verse draws a parallel between serving earthly…
Moral Responsibility: The instruction implies that even in difficult circumstances, the manner of service should be honorable and sincere.
Broader Implications
Historical Context: The concept of slavery in biblical times differed significantly from modern understandings. Slaves often had various rights and roles within households.
Modern Application: While the specific context of slavery has changed, the principles of respect, sincerity, and service can apply to various authority relationships …

І ці люди забороняють нам колупатися в носі.
АМОГУС.
tl;dr Люди на спектрі більш схильні дотримуватися законів, ніж нейротіпікали, у випадку, коли за ними ніхто не спостерігає.

tl;dr People on the spectrum tend to follow the laws more reliably when not watched (than the neurotypicals in the same conditions).
The paper calls it "moral rigidity".
I'm not sure if "flexibility" in this case is something to be proud of. What do you think?…

Heute beim Einkaufen mal die Schlagzeilen der Presse überflogen.
In einer Faschistenlatrine unterhält sich ein Rotzeimer mit einem führenden CDU-Politiker über Moral. Kannste dir nicht ausdenken.

Yes. It is real. He actually posted it.
(Context: Blue Angels, US Navy precision flight team, flew above beachgoers in Florida and jet wash, the kinetic energy of flight, hit the beachgoers. The flyover is in violation of the law, Navy policy and basic understanding of pilot responsibility for anyone older than 5.)
The flyover: yout…

For Donald Trump, it’s always personal.
And he leaves this week feeling betrayed.
First, the US supreme court rejected his effort to restrict mail-in ballots ahead of the midterm elections.
“These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court,”
the president wrote on his Truth Socialplatform. “They are merely a shell of their original selves.”
Then the Federal Reserve defied Trump by raising its benchmark interest rate by a quarte…
