RWDT XX: The System Is Kapp Putsch

[Cekoviu]

you probably have no idea where it comes from because you were playing neopets instead of engaging with memes

Please, I played club penguin because I'm not a degenerate.

um, hello, based dept.?

Not putting stock into memes is to not put stock into real life.

Not putting stock into life is not an entirely poor decision.

Well, see, the issue is that the death penalty in general means that innocent people will end up dying at some point and I'm not too thrilled with that.

There are ways to address that, for example make the death penalty require a higher stand of proof, such as reserving it for cases where there is no real doubt or dispute of guilt, no the more borderline cases. Also for repeat offenders and those who commit crimes while in prison.

Such safeguards can reduce the risk of a false conviction.

Yes. People who murder in prison need to pay that penalty.

Club Penguin was never based. I recall teleporting to someone’s igloo and finding them in a ‘bed’ (read: chairs placed together) having sex and spamming emotes.

The subject of mimetics is interesting in RL. Internet memes on the other hand? Meh. Can take it or leave it.

Cigarettes promote digestive health.

cigarettes are as american as apple pie you communist

And it's a petty reasoning.
There's no big reasons as to why.

....... yes there are?????
allowing it would basically create a generation of proto-elliott rodgers, that's a pretty big reason

Tbh, I think it's more likely that depression and suicide rates would go up in that scenario among men, rather than a significant amount of men becoming Eliott Rodgers.

Cigarettes promote digestive health.

and they also promote lung cancer, heart disease, male infertility, bad breath, and tooth loss, so

all the more reason to hate them :^)

[Celritannia]

But they do exist.

Reject them all you want, but trying to stop them from happening is stupid.

Egalitarian relationships are a modern contrivance which likes to call itself that. But taking the polyandrous example of the whatever the term is(orgy? agglomeration?) in the news article about polyamorous child abuse, that's not described as an egalitarian relationship. The woman is the hub, and the men are the spokes. So that sounds more like matriarchy than egalitarianism.
In the real world all relationships are inherently hierarchical. Saying "well when we have egalitarian relationships we won't need social norms for relationship exclusivity"(the actual content of pro-poly args) is like saying "when the state gradually withers away into a classless currencyless society, everybody will be perfectly provided for".

My response is here

16?

[Salus Maior]

So, really, it would be counterintuitive to promote that and family values.

Considering my mom lost her dad to cigs when she was 4.

All the more reason to ban them. Americanisation is a scourge.

Yes. People who murder in prison need to pay that penalty.

I'm against the death penalty partially on the grounds of the risk of false convictions, a risk which can be somewhat mitigated but never entirely eliminated, and partially on religious grounds as I believe that even the worst criminal should always be given the opportunity to repent of their crimes where possible. I don't believe that capital punishment is always morally wrong, but I think it should be avoided where it reasonably can be. In modern first world society, we should really be able to deal with crime without resorting to execution, given that we have the resources to punish criminals and protect the public from them in a more humane manner.

its quaint how you were 16 in the time of Moses and a pack of lucky strikes probably cost only a few shekels. keep flexin though

I'm not defending the death penalty, but in instances where it is usually used there is most often a significant amount of time between conviction and sentence, with appeals being an option in that time.
