Oh, it was slapstick. So, would you call Charles Chaplin senselessly violent?

I guess if you seek out slasher flicks... I like science fiction and cartoons

The closest thing I can remember seeing in the last few years to that is in The Boys when A-Train liquefies Huey's girlfriend. But I think giving us a sense of Huey's shock and trauma is absolutely necessary in that scene, because it establishes why he doesn't just take the settlement money and move on with his life. We need to believe this event has profoundly affected him and made it impossible for him to ignore the problems with superheroes.

Violence often does serve a purpose. For example, in superhero movies it's often how the heroes stop the bad guys. That teaches us important lessons about life, like that we should shoot health insurance CEOs.

Bruh what's your problem with depictions of violence on TV?

Is it still expensive if you do the injections yourself?

What's this nonsense? Why don't you just say "they" like a normal person?

If we're going to have a made up system with no rules, it might as well be well ordered.

I simply don't have the stomach for rape or genocide. My reason tells me these things might in some future be be necessary, if there were a contrived situation in which a madman asked me to rape someone or he'll nuke the world. But my "ick factor" disagrees, and would not permit me to act as I reason. Fortunately, I cannot see the likelihood of such a situation in my lifetime. I have a reasonable certainty of upholding my principles if I always condemn those who rape or genocide. Well, as long as I don't get it into my head that CNC is rape.

I do not understand why you are so opposed to humility. I don't know everything. I have access to no fundamental great truth of the world. I recognise my feelings on right and wrong to be just that - feelings. You find the smallness of my ego offensive. This doesn't make any sense to me.

I think all rape is bad, due to my utilitarianism, and my conviction that rape is a deeply violating act which causes suffering that cannot be made up for

Now, explain your ancap objectivist viewpoint.

EDIT: I'm picking up on some big time virgin energy from all the people in this thread who think girlsmell is a fetish. Girls smell. If you didn't know that, it's clear the only women you've ever been with were 2D.

PS: If you prefer boysmell that is also very valid, and if you don't like stinky partners at all I want you to know I stand with the ace community and I'm only meaning to make fun of allos.

 
 
 

Explanation: the people of Sentinel Island refuse to communicate with other cultures, and kill outsiders on sight. They're the only culture untouched by the politics of the rest of the world.

Anything involving more than one person is political, so the only way to avoid politics is to kill everyone you meet on sight. But unlike the Sentinelese, you wouldn't be able to have any friends.
