I see drags argument for benign Gods using various contexts. Drag seems to be knowledgable about religions. I am as unqualified to determine a benevolent or malevolent religion as I am a king. Thereby "no gods, no masters" captures my incompetence in knowing when to allow another power over me.

Science is sometimes used like religion. We called it "Proof by Authority". Thank goodness for science having testability requirements to show the authority is a fool.

The phrase is about hierarchy. Any metaphysical claim can be used to create a "power over" relationship. If a metaphysical belief causes an individual to behave differently a "power over" relationship has been established.

I sense Noble Savage and Orientalism in drags arguments. Why are "power over" relationships stemming from religion only a "white" person problem? Is drag familiar with the Rohingya and their oppressors?

When did this become rapist or not? The choice was between neloiberalism and populist reactionary conservativism.

I understand not making a choice let populist reactionary conservativism win. The established electoral system makes that the accepted narrative. I propose an equally valid choice is rejection of both political groups and the electoral system creating the duopoly of power.

I have voted Democrat since I could vote. I voted third party this round. Liberals should blame me for the problems of the Empire. Vote Biden and move him left was only compelling once. Give me economic substance. Dismantle the Empire.

Sometimes the units are given cute names like "wiggly waggly units" to make physicists cringe. Acknowledging a unit with cute names when the unit is not important is entertaining.

Perhaps poverty and a living wage are different. I often get caught up in the difference between one million and $75k.

What's fifty grand to a

Banning ownership becomes a game of catch. Use whatever you have: 7.62x51mm, arrows, rocks, ect.

Roast pumpkin puree can be added as filler to sauces. Bottom right option seems fine too. Why kink shame?

The $75k figure is from 2010. The article seems to be https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1011492107.

You acknowledge $75k as a living wage in 2010. How would research from 2010 be used for wage suppression today? Was it wage suppression in 2010?
