I’m not sure what your argument is. I’ve been working with pedophiles for 10+ years in the past. I’m curious about how society creates and identifies its “monsters”, that’s all. Not sure you’re on topic.
Come with the great migration.

Maybe that’s the reason. At least that’s what I tend to think. But at the same time, it the rise of pedophilia to the prime type of deviancy looks quite… recent, if I may say? So something is society may have changed in the last decades/century to make it so?
Food for thought indeed, thanks.
Honestly, I’ll vote for them. But they disgust me with all their power struggle about who’s going to be prime minister. In doing so, they’re tearing apart the whole thing. They swore that they wouldn’t betray us. They’re betraying us everyday by showing everybody it’s just a struggle between egos. They’re paving the way for the far right too with this ridiculous display of inflated heads.
I’ll vote for them, then I’ll puke. The only frontliner I’m feeling like supporting in the future is, maybe, Manon Aubry.
France is becoming a far right country on two weeks. Do yourself a favor and stay as far as you can.
Quitted reddit during the great exodus and never came back (well of course apart from when a Google search leads me there for an [outdated] answer). Came to Lemmy, never looked back and never left since then. I plan on being here as long as there’s an instance standing.
How odd. A country elects a fascist who then behaves like a fascist.
Well… Sometimes, even the bad ones, the worst ones, can be exhausted too.
I did. Re-read my message. “A Story Beside”
An RPG on Steam. A story beside. Never thought I’d play a RPGMaker game. One of the best storytelling I’ve seen. An incredible and truly magnificent voice acting and a gripping story. I was left without words at the end.
Played a cracked version of the game. As soon as I finished it, I bought it for me knowing I wouldn’t be doing a second playthrough and bought 3 other copies for friends.
I think I’ll remember it until my last day. Also, a single playthrough of this short game made me understand why voice acting is important, and what it can create when it’s truly good.
My brother/sister in christ, have you considered nuking your neighborhood from orbit ?
Also, if I may add and as other have stated, some do not see consciousness as the most complex layer of the human being. Some even consider it as an off-product of our highest functions.
À very interesting questions. I’ve long felt there was two possible answers to this. You can see a more complex layer at the level of the relationship we have with other beings or even objects (Me + My Favorite Song would be a being of n+1 level of complexity). I call it the Deleuze/Spinoza hypothesis.
Then, you could see it as a kind of personal truth you’re embodying, not as a creator but just as an operator, a tool. Although “personal” wouldn’t be the right word. You would embody, express, a fraction of a deep truth which is specific to each being.
Or maybe something else I’m unable to imagine.

Sometimes I remember my parents have a 18 years age gap, and I can’t quite wrap my head around this.
Cadenza plats music. Cadenza also reads Thomas Mathiesen.
I’m trying to patch together my conception of free will and determinism to sum it up here in answer, but it’s full of holes. Basically it goes like this. Determinism is the rule of nature and, of course, mankind. Free will doesn’t exist. Some measure of freedom and emancipation, on the other hand, do exist. It’s hard to sum it up. Basically, very close to a spinozist stance, just with more holes and gaps. But I’ll stop here since the OP specifically asked to leave philosophical perspectives at the door.
That’s an optimistic answer. But I’ll take it. There’s not much optimism around lately.
