Guns are power, power is political.

- TazeTSchnitzel 7y agoYep.
- ixtli 7y agoYes. Also, the most boring work. Also all work. Also work itself.
- lukifer 7y agoSex is power, power is political. Freedom is power, power is political. The unfortunate reality is that there are no closed systems in nature. Nothing can be completely firewalled off from politics, power, game theory, status, memetics, social dynamics, tribal value-signaling, etc. The best we can probably hope for is localized, fuzzy consensus on taboos. We might all decide it's inappropriate to criticize sexual behaviors, or bring up religion in polite company; but it's probably fine if someone has strong feelings about adding a stoplight to 3rd & Main, or increasing funding to national parks.
