I’m a Christian Anarchist myself...

Yeah... Nah...

You are ignorant, bigoted, and not worth further time. Give your head a shake.

By that logic, I should start murdering and killing random civilians because it’s in opposition to the law. Of course not! Not literally all laws are completely wrong. But I 1000% do not give a fuck about the letter of the law for the things I actually want to do.

By that logic, you aren't the only person in the world and a not so small amount of people are all about that life.

And I would be a lot more quiet if you were from Palestine or Iran or one of the various countries America has bombed into the stone age, or even from the inner city or one of the reservations inside the US. I could absolutely sympathize with them being rude to me. I’d agree with them and take it. I’m an anarchist, and I’m accustomed to reading material written with a confrontational tone; half our modern anarchist literature is just people yelling at the reader

A racist Anarchist? Well I never!

But you’re from Canada. Canada is just as complicit as the United States in the vast majority of the suffering we inflict on the world. And y’all are just as shitty to your indigenous population as we are.

And I’ve been noticing a distinctly…pro-Canada stance in your recent comment history…

Canada has much to be ashamed of, and much more to be proud of. We most certainly do not treat our Indigenous population like you do. We also do a lot of good around the world. There is a reason why we have so many allies.

I am not ashamed to be Canadian, and I am proud to be Canadian. I am also proud of being Greek. Regardless of the history of both.

If Americans have nothing to be proud of …WHICH WE DO NOT… AMERICANS HAVE NOTHING TO BE PROUD OF …then Canadians have almost nothing to be proud of. Yeah your healthcare system and social services are slightly less shit for white people, but Canada is still a settler-colonialist, capitalist, racist project that needs to be abolished.

We have much to be proud of in Canada. Feel free to explain how one "abolishes" a country full of people born and raised here from all over the world.

Like if I should feel bad for living in America, then by taking your logic to its logical conclusion YOU should be ashamed about living in Canada.

Which you shouldn’t. You were born there or were brought there. It’s not your fault.

I choose to live here because I like my country. I am proud of that choice. Just like you choose to live in the US and play pretend freedom fighter.

And to be completely clear: I reject national pride overall. National pride is for people who have nothing real to be proud of.

To be completely clear: Obviously, "Anarchist". That is exactly what people say when they have nothing to be proud of in their country.

You should take a peak on what people in the US have to deal with before you go shitting on Canada.

That also isn't how we got into a housing crisis. That was because the Government stopped building houses, and turned real estate into the monster of an investment vehicle it is today.

My argument is that there is a basic moral code embedded in our genes via instincts. For example the ability to feel compassion and empathy - these are instinctual.

A wiki does not an argument make, and your argument fails to explain why compassion and empathy are not universal in our species and a learned behavior.

We’re not talking about turtles but about instincts, that’s why I said “assuming you’re correct” because even if you are, you’re not disproving the existence of instincts, which is pretty much scientific common knowledge. The specific example is not that important for the argument, which you conveniently avoided.

I asked you to provide an example of inherent instincts, you said Turtles, I demonstrated why you were wrong.

The onus is on you to prove your original hypothesis:

Nobody needs third parties to dictate what good is, it’s embedded in our genes.

I am not avoiding your argument, I am explicitly telling you it is bullshit. This is bullshit and not backed by anything real.

Feel free to source something or jog on.

I wish your friend safety in their travels!
