For it to be scientifically accurate of a comparison, the ratio of weight:human needs to be equal to that of rider:horse.
In case my phrasing is confusing, to illustrate what I mean here is an example: a 200lb horse carrying a 100lb human is equivalent to a 100lb human carrying a 50lb weight.

Stupid fairy tale is about as relevant as the Greek myths.

Puritanical work ethic bullshit coming from the mouth of someone with hands that have never known callouses.
Fuck his shitty religion; he can shove that fairy tale book up his ass. I don’t give a fuck what “biblically” we are supposed to do.

This is why I always donate my finished books to my local library. I don’t need them, and if I want to read it again I can always just go check it out from the library.

I would assume there would be arguments around transporting them increasing the chances of it breaking. It would really only make sense to move these back to their country of origin and have them remain there to minimize potential points of failure. The rarer the artifact itself (another rusted out sword or plain clay cup versus a one of a kind manuscript whose pages have become incredibly delicate) the less their respective owners are going to want it to be moved.
Instead, we should be allowing more people the ability to travel and take time to go explore other cultures in their country of origin instead of trying to transport priceless artifacts across the globe.

I just have a rubber handle icepick in my glove box that works wonders on gas station speakers.
Can’t play an ad if there isn’t a speaker.

Explains a lot of ignorance in general tbh

Legitimately, the majority of people would still miss the signs. People just don’t want to admit how little we truly pay attention to what is around us at any given moment. Our minds filter out so much information before we even have a chance to process it.
- Comment on Pull to enter, you say? 2 weeks ago:
We have socially conditioned ourselves to ignore signage if we aren’t specifically looking for it. 99% of signage in today’s world is usually just an ad being shoved into your face trying to sell something. It is a bombardment of annoying and intrusive information to the point our minds have trained themselves to filter the visual noise out. It is literally too much for our mind to process, so most of it gets deleted from our consciousness in the same way the hole in your vision from your optical nerve is being hidden from your perception unless you specifically expose it.

Good thing they weren’t specifically talking about billboards and instead were speaking to the much broader spectrum of advertising strategies.

The State itself kills way more than any negative effects of burning down one of their institutions.
Those services are provided to people through the distribution of resources to communities that need them. The state only exists to control how this happens, and predominantly works to frustrate these efforts to distribute resources equitably in order to facilitate profit growth for the capitalist market.
As an Anarchist, yes, I fully believe a stateless society would be leagues better than one that suffers under an unjust hierarchy that only exists to serve the interests of capital.
Nice red herring though with the last point. Never said other States would just sit idly by. Which is why forms of defense will still need to be organized and there are many different ways to organize community defense that don’t rely on a state hierarchy.
Burning a State building only burns down a building, nothing more.

What a myopic take…
State Buildings are not people, why should we have empathy for inanimate objects? Militant organizations exist to defend people from systemic oppression (at least leftist ones do, cannot say the same for the right wing types) specifically because they empathize with the plight of those being oppressed.
