I wonder what those people claim they keep politics and science seperated. You know, because if you get a lab coat you’re immune

Succesfully iniating this from the fediverse would be such a massive boost in public visibility and discoursive strength of the project of collectivization of information infrastructure (like lemmy).
Imagine we fluffin freed science from capital and basically all the scientists openly stated how useful this was
- Comment on Fossils 5 months ago:
Okay I dont know much about dino categorization, but let’s say: The category “dinosaur” is a sum of descriptions of objective properties of dinosaurs and their relation to other species’ properties (idk, no milk, thus no mammal…). Those properties and relations existed as the dinosaur existed. So I would agree: to that extend the categories existed, without us.
Let’s say the category “poetry” describes a relational phenomenon that occurs when a combination of words or an arrangement of things (sunset, fossils) sparks an aesthetic experience.
This is not just discovered and described by humans, but it can exclusively happen when humans are present. As with dinos: the category “poetry” didn’ exist before us. The difference I’m all about: What the category describes also did’t exist before humans. Yes, there were fossils, but they alone would have never evolved to be a part of poetry without humans, the way dinos were dinos without humans.

To the haters: I dont question your experience of (this) poetry. That I would be sorry for.
I questions the hypostasis, that is declaring your experience of the thing as a property of the thing.
- Comment on Fossils 5 months ago:
No. By my logic human existence is the point in wich poetry exists.
Yes, we almost agree, I just argue: Poetry is not what sparks. It’s the spark.
Sunrise exists: no poetry. Sunrise sparks someones mind: poetry.

Did anyone look this up?
- Comment on Fossils 5 months ago:
Yeah nice, but also no not quite… Before humans and before words there was no poetry. Just stones and bugs and stuff. It needed humans cognitive capacity to emerge/create (not discover) aesthetic categories, like poetry
Sorry for fact checking your poetic meme, but it made this claim that might be understood factual and unreflected mystification of nature is still quite a thing

Same answer, see the post I’m referring to

I picked up that theme in the post I’m referring to. It fits the western narrative of potency

Iran: oppressing women, religion, wasting ressources, limp dick
USA: praising women, rational thought, outperforming, big potent dick
To me this looks like binary construction of reality, wich helps to avoid critique of your own society by externalizing it on the outside. Just an idea, but this might be interesting to consider: How is the US doing on “praising women” lately? How about bad decisions being justified with religion? Directing ressources? (Distribution of wealth)
And does the Penis metaphor actually help you to find an adequate critical stance to politics and your society?
Will this way of going about critique/understanding of our societies help us?
Maybe, does it help the permaboner, christian, antifeminist, billionairfriendly “performers”?
