@aral Handmaid's Tale and Nazis are a pretty mixed metaphor.

@silverwizard And what is your purported "stated interest"? Literally the only thing stated interest I can think of that most billionaires have signed onto is the Giving Pledge, which is literally the opposite of the point you're trying to make. They cover a wide range of nationalities, races, and political leanings, and indeed, many of them can't stand each other and think that the other is dangerous for society. Just like people as a whole do.

@hypolite Anyone who says the term "overly broad about what human means" is a deeply problematic individual. Period.

I have nothing more to add to this discussion.

@hypolite I'm sorry, but EVERYONE in the species Homo sapiens is a human. Not some shadowy "Other". The stereotyping of broad groups as otherwise rather than considering them as individual human beings subject to the same human characteristics as others is an incredibly dangerous moral philosophy.

@hypolite @aral @pre Got it. Certain groups aren't actually individual humans, but are actually shadowy collective nonhuman "Others".

Any other groups you'd like to do that with? Jews, perhaps?
