I looked that passage up, and man it's bleak. It's a couple verses away from "Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind." :(

If I thought humanity was unconditionally evil, I think I'd be stockpiling weapons too.

Littles.

In reference to chidren.

Oh, your littles look like they're having fun.

My littles just love dressing up like Elsa!

I give my littles fruit snacks.

What happens when these kids aren't little and cute anymore? Do they start saying "My assholes just love locking themselves in their rooms only to come out and demand hot pockets!"

I'm being cynical. These kids are lucky to be so loved. But jesus, that way of talking is gross.

My mother called me "little" until I started into growth spurts, at which point she transitioned to "kid" and never stopped. I am now mid-30s and still called "kid."

It's just a cute euphemism/nickname.

I've been using the analogy that since people will have car accidents no matter what, why should we put seatbelts in cars? Sure it might save SOME people, but what about the rights of people not to be restrained in a giant speeding vehicle?

Also bike helmets. Because bike helmets only prevent one type of injury it's an infringement of our rights to make everyone who wants to ride a bike wear them. They could get spinal injuries, or break a leg! THEN WHAT, GUN NAZIS?!?!?

Except these arguments are made unironically by many people in the US. Louisiana has a large contingent of people who see mandating seatbelts and safety gear as an infringement on personal liberty. Big gubmint etc etc (see also: traffic laws, parking regulations, sales tax, income tax, child discipline, safety regulations, healthcare, workers' unions, non-Christians, all the other evils of the world).

Edit: Wearing a seatbelt in the back seat of a car didn't become required by law here until 2009 and was much protested. A proposal to actually use the parking meters downtown and require payment for parking, which would have gone to the infrastructure budget and fixed many roads, was shot down for being discriminatory against downtown businesses. It's a libertarian paradise as long as you're a white man.

I like this one. Lack of seatbelts don't cause injuries and deaths, bad drivers do. Technically true, but bad drivers are inevitable, as are murderous and/or stupid owners. You can solve the problem of lack of seatbelts, or lots of guns easily - why go for the insurmountable problem instead?

Seems like an impossible standard to subject children to when it is arguable that everyone would fail at this "informed and rational" criteria when it comes to decision making, and by extension should not be allowed to act autonomously.

[–]FleetingSorrow
Seems very SJWish and dogmatic to me, which only makes sense in terms of a certain predefined/prejudiced sense of what is "good", which is ultimately undefined. It is also unconvincing to ethically judge behaviors based on legalism/societal norms either, which is fundamentally no different than an appeal to nature.

[–]FleetingSorrow
Oh FFS Moderator, I said nothing of ad hominem nature regarding you, only that your argument was SJWish, with all the vague terms of "disparity of economic and societal power" and "not a truly consensual decision (from an anti-capitalist perspective)" etc, now here you are going through my comment history and making opinionated statements regarding my person.
