Individualism vs Colectivism

Post by Dr_Liszt »

Individualism tends to ignore the systemic oppression against a group of people. Therefore it's wrong.

THOUGHTS?

If everyone was an individual there would be no groups of people or systematic oppression. Individualism wins.

But there would only have to be one individual for that to work!

I like tortillas with chicken and avocado. Add some hot sauce. It's awesome!

Well I didn't make it. There's a restaurant on the other side of I-10 called El Jacalito that my wife likes because of their caldo de rez, and they make a pretty decent plate of fajitas, which is what I order. They always serve soup with your meal, and when we went they were out of caldo de rez, which for me was a happy accident. I'm not crazy about soup (although I'll eat caldo de rez, I think it has too many vegetables) but this tortilla soup we got instead was good as fuck.

I was thinking of you last Saturday because I had Mexican and I thought "Bruce must eat the real deal, not this washed up commercial thing." So I was jealous for a while. I've never had real Mexican food.

Also, is caldo de res. And I hate that shit. HATE IT.

No. Sadly. [sad]
The only person from my family that has been to Mexico is my brother. He went to Puebla.

Guatemalans only go to Mexico to become gardeners, and replace the Mexicans who become gardeners in the USA. [none]

No offense, Mufasa, but that went really quickly from punishment to noogie. Like, you need to have some follow-through here, man! Some consistency!
Even as a kid I thought this.

I've never seen The Lion King because I'm too cool for such nonsense.

Thank you, but I'm certain that Aslan > that Musapasta-whatever.

My childhood grief at the death of Aslan was completely undone by the realisation that he was a Christ metaphor. Like, I was really sad about the dead talking lion but actually it's just Jesus? Boring.
