It's not at all what I implied and the fact you keep doubling down on this ridiculous strawman is what really makes no sense. Yeah again were speaking English because it's your language you couldn't even speak to me in any of my more native languages so condescending about it is silly. It's an educated guess given how you talk about what is and isn't science it's the kind of attitude that would get you laughed out of a lab until you fixed your attitude. It's the attitude of someone who watches science videos or has interest in some field of science like astronomy or astrophysics but has never actually studied it instead watching edutainment about it. I wasn't crying about anything simply pointing it out and the fact that instead of simply apologising and moving on you felt the need to double triple and quadruple down just shows the kind of person you really are. permalink fedilink source parent load more comments (1 reply) [–] doben@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 months ago (5 children) There is no natural science. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] Madison420@lemmy.world -4 points 2 months ago (4 children) Depends on what you define natural sciences as I imagine but under the generally accepted definition (geology, biology etc.) it 100% exists. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] doben@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 months ago (3 children) Add all of those together and it still doesn't equal nature hence natural sciences not natural science. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Madison420@lemmy.world -3 points 2 months ago (2 children) That's why people started referring to natural science as empirical science, you're not making the point you think you are because that's a sticking point in science.

You're just using it as a standin for "good" or "acceptable" which again, has no meaning without a subject. Fine for what? Good or acceptable for who? most of the world doesn’t agree murder is morally wrong What? Your slavery example doesn’t work because slavery was and is always immoral Then why, for hundreds of years, was it considered so moral in America that it took an entire war to change it? Because most people individually all just happened to lack this obvious, natural morality? Or is it because ideas of morality are made up, arise from material conditions, and are systemically reproduced in a society? That they were able to create a system of moral justifications that excused them in their own minds for supporting slavery, just like liberals today have a system of moral justifications that excuse them in their own minds for supporting the Gaza genocide? You seem to think that "right and wrong" exist in some pure elemental form somewhere out in the universe, the way carbon and potassium do, some baseline that human actions can be measured against. They don't. Right and wrong are figments of the human imagination, and only by accepting them for the shadows that they are can we stop chasing them in circles and finally begin to think in useful, concrete, scientific terms. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 17 child comments replies: [–] a comment that isn't shown here: deleted, from someone you've blocked, or on another page. view the thread from it replies: [–] Tomorrow_Farewell@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 months ago (3 children) What's the total weight of morals right now, in Newtons? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] a comment that isn't shown here: deleted, from someone you've blocked, or on another page. view the thread from it replies: [–] Tomorrow_Farewell@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago* (1 child) Weight is a force.

Those "western prison practices" include private prisons, i.e. slavery. Many people here will realize how fucking silly it is to argue the USSR was a progressive place. It very unambiguously was. It tremendously improved the lives of people, both directly within its own territory, by helping liberatory anti-colonial movements, and by pushing the Imperial Core to improve workers' rights domestically. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 months ago (4 children) Not every Soviet prison was a labor camp, and many of them were open-air prisons, with weekend visitation, etc. The cartoonist idea of the gulag is a fantasy that did not exist.

I believe in prison abolition in the long run, but I'm also a communist, I view history as a process and not as a static snapshot. The soviets deliberately tried to make a more humane system, and did so, even if they would be seen as backwards today. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] Doom@discuss.online -7 points 2 months ago (1 child) But that's just not true. People were wrongly imprisoned because of the state's personal goals, the same as the Tsarist system the only better part was the lack of funds and policing power Tsarist Russia had to support their desire to imprison and control the population. People were still imprisoned base on their sexuality, the religious identity and their progressive movements. That's not progressive. Nobody is arguing pro western motives here, I don't know why you want to stick to that soo fucking hard. It literally damages every argument you make. Learn to criticize the USSR on it's own actions and stop bringing up the west in every single argument you make it literally weakens it every time. You think across the ENTIRE WEST every prison was wayyy worse than in the USSR? Because that's just not true, the idea of a gulag is definitely made overly cartoonish but being sent to a Siberian labor camp and people dying in these labor camps is absolutely real dude. They did not try to make a more humane system, maybe some people did but some people tried to make more humane prison systems in the west too. Because again, for the like 5th fucking time it is not a this or that argument, a lot of this is cultural global shifts in human rights. Everyone across the world was realizing the need for change. You're making an ass out of yourself trying to push this east vs west thing sooo fucking hard. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) No, the major difference between the Tsarist system and the socialist system was that aristocrats and capitalists were in control of the Tsarist system, while the working classes were in charge of the socialist system. Saying that "dissidents were punished under both" ignores that that means workers and peasants were by far the biggest victim in the Tsarist system, while aristocrats, semi-slavers called kulaks, and capitalists were the biggest victims in the USSR. I can criticize the USSR for its genuine shortcomings more effectively than you can, because I put the USSR into its actual historical context, rather than treating it as a static snapshot that exists outside of history. I never said every prison in the west was worse than every prison in the USSR. I said the justice system in the USSR was better than the justice systems in the west on average. This is the actual comparison being made, not the ridiculous strawman. Bringing it back to culture rather than material conditions, and erasing it from its historical context, is nothing but quasi-fascism. I don't think you are intentionally relying on fascist rhetoric, but fascism is the path idealism and metaphysics leads down, which is why taking a scientific approach to history is critical. permalink fedilink source parent [–] EmmiLime@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 months ago (5 children) Mate you are a bloodthirsty shitlib, you are clouded in your racism permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] a comment that isn't shown here: deleted, from someone you've blocked, or on another page. view the thread from it replies: [–] EmmiLime@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 months ago (4 children) You: also you: continues to post all over the thread You listen to what the genocidal, colonial empire says about its enemies and spout it all over the thread.

As for history you're probably right that in and of itself it is not a science but it is a core part of much of the rest of the social science fields, this however doesn't do much to further your argument that the social sciences as a field are illegitimate. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 19 child comments replies: [–] a comment that isn't shown here: deleted, from someone you've blocked, or on another page. view the thread from it replies: [–] gualudengren@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago (17 children) First off you said social sciences were illegitimate also you have a very feeble grasp of what makes a field legitimate, we obviously have not found an encompassing theory for all society, but so what?

As for the rest of your nonsense all science is, is: A systematic method or body of knowledge in a given area. Psychology is absolutely a science. As for history you're probably right that in and of itself it is not a science but it is a core part of much of the rest of the social science fields, this however doesn't do much to further your argument that the social sciences as a field are illegitimate. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 19 child comments replies: [–] a comment that isn't shown here: deleted, from someone you've blocked, or on another page. view the thread from it replies: [–] gualudengren@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago (17 children) First off you said social sciences were illegitimate also you have a very feeble grasp of what makes a field legitimate, we obviously have not found an encompassing theory for all society, but so what?

[–] gualudengren@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago* (2 children) It doesn’t solely mean crazy or deranged, it can also mean plain stupid. Take a crack at which I meant. Similarly that still doesn’t make it ableist bud. Yes it does bud. You are a an albeist asshole and should be ashamed of yourself. That’s absolutely your implication hence the word imply. But it wasn't it was a straw man not even in the same area of thought of anything I said. It’s not, there’s natural science, social sciences and humanities.

Whatever, Cowbee has been very open and responsive and all you do is talk in circles, misinterpret Cowbee's posts in bad faith and then be insulting. Okay looking at your posts in your profile, you're someone who hates Russia A LOT, calls DPRK the "Kim regime" and China "China's single party" like it's a horrible evil dictatorship.

People were still imprisoned base on their sexuality, the religious identity and their progressive movements. That's not progressive. Nobody is arguing pro western motives here, I don't know why you want to stick to that soo fucking hard. It literally damages every argument you make. Learn to criticize the USSR on it's own actions and stop bringing up the west in every single argument you make it literally weakens it every time. You think across the ENTIRE WEST every prison was wayyy worse than in the USSR? Because that's just not true, the idea of a gulag is definitely made overly cartoonish but being sent to a Siberian labor camp and people dying in these labor camps is absolutely real dude. They did not try to make a more humane system, maybe some people did but some people tried to make more humane prison systems in the west too. Because again, for the like 5th fucking time it is not a this or that argument, a lot of this is cultural global shifts in human rights. Everyone across the world was realizing the need for change.

Saying that "dissidents were punished under both" ignores that that means workers and peasants were by far the biggest victim in the Tsarist system, while aristocrats, semi-slavers called kulaks, and capitalists were the biggest victims in the USSR. I can criticize the USSR for its genuine shortcomings more effectively than you can, because I put the USSR into its actual historical context, rather than treating it as a static snapshot that exists outside of history. I never said every prison in the west was worse than every prison in the USSR. I said the justice system in the USSR was better than the justice systems in the west on average. This is the actual comparison being made, not the ridiculous strawman. Bringing it back to culture rather than material conditions, and erasing it from its historical context, is nothing but quasi-fascism. I don't think you are intentionally relying on fascist rhetoric, but fascism is the path idealism and metaphysics leads down, which is why taking a scientific approach to history is critical. permalink fedilink source parent [–] EmmiLime@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 months ago (5 children) Mate you are a bloodthirsty shitlib, you are clouded in your racism permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] a comment that isn't shown here: deleted, from someone you've blocked, or on another page. view the thread from it replies: [–] EmmiLime@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 months ago (4 children) You: also you: continues to post all over the thread You listen to what the genocidal, colonial empire says about its enemies and spout it all over the thread.

I can criticize the USSR for its genuine shortcomings more effectively than you can, because I put the USSR into its actual historical context, rather than treating it as a static snapshot that exists outside of history. I never said every prison in the west was worse than every prison in the USSR. I said the justice system in the USSR was better than the justice systems in the west on average. This is the actual comparison being made, not the ridiculous strawman. Bringing it back to culture rather than material conditions, and erasing it from its historical context, is nothing but quasi-fascism. I don't think you are intentionally relying on fascist rhetoric, but fascism is the path idealism and metaphysics leads down, which is why taking a scientific approach to history is critical. permalink fedilink source parent [–] EmmiLime@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 months ago (5 children) Mate you are a bloodthirsty shitlib, you are clouded in your racism permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] a comment that isn't shown here: deleted, from someone you've blocked, or on another page. view the thread from it replies: [–] EmmiLime@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 months ago (4 children) You: also you: continues to post all over the thread You listen to what the genocidal, colonial empire says about its enemies and spout it all over the thread.

[–] Tomorrow_Farewell@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 months ago He literally just argued work camps were more progressive than western prison practices. Those "western prison practices" include private prisons, i.e. slavery. Many people here will realize how fucking silly it is to argue the USSR was a progressive place. It very unambiguously was. It tremendously improved the lives of people, both directly within its own territory, by helping liberatory anti-colonial movements, and by pushing the Imperial Core to improve workers' rights domestically. permalink fedilink source parent
[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 months ago (4 children) Not every Soviet prison was a labor camp, and many of them were open-air prisons, with weekend visitation, etc. The cartoonist idea of the gulag is a fantasy that did not exist. Meanwhile, the west had concentration camps in the Congo, India, etc. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [+] Doom@discuss.online -7 points 2 months ago (3 children) I never said a gulag, I laughed at how silly it is to propose the concept of a progressive prison. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 months ago (2 children) The simple fact was that across the soviet justice system, conditions were both enormously better than the Tsarist system, and comparatively better than the majority of capitalist countries, especially if we count western concentration camps in the colonies that Hitler later recreated in Europe. I believe in prison abolition in the long run, but I'm also a communist, I view history as a process and not as a static snapshot.

People were wrongly imprisoned because of the state's personal goals, the same as the Tsarist system the only better part was the lack of funds and policing power Tsarist Russia had to support their desire to imprison and control the population. People were still imprisoned base on their sexuality, the religious identity and their progressive movements. That's not progressive. Nobody is arguing pro western motives here, I don't know why you want to stick to that soo fucking hard. It literally damages every argument you make. Learn to criticize the USSR on it's own actions and stop bringing up the west in every single argument you make it literally weakens it every time. You think across the ENTIRE WEST every prison was wayyy worse than in the USSR? Because that's just not true, the idea of a gulag is definitely made overly cartoonish but being sent to a Siberian labor camp and people dying in these labor camps is absolutely real dude. They did not try to make a more humane system, maybe some people did but some people tried to make more humane prison systems in the west too. Because again, for the like 5th fucking time it is not a this or that argument, a lot of this is cultural global shifts in human rights. Everyone across the world was realizing the need for change.
