This is part one of “the botany of desire”, exploring how four plants, apples, tulips, cannabis and potatoes have adapted human desires, which in turn has made them some of the most successful plant species around the world. The rest of the parts are on Dailymotion too for those interested.

Make a negative post about the US and watch the same people complaining in this thread suddenly become super-“patriotic” and defend the way things are in the US at all cost. You need to redefine what it means to be patriotic IMO. As long as patriotism in the US is understood as reflexively defending what the American government has done at all times, there’s nothing anyone outside of the US can do to help.

Patriotism should be looking after the interests of your fellow citizens, and that should routinely mean being opposed to the government, not rallying around it as soon as it’s criticized by an “outsider”. It’s bizarre watching so many people from oppressed minorities being gung-ho flag wavers while the government is planning to put them in internment camps.

And you do understand that unless you specifically mention that, saying that you’ll be dead in four years can only be reasonably interpreted as you having a terminal illness, right? Hence, saying that I’m a liar when I made the only reasonable interpretation of information provided by yourself, is bad faith at best. Do you not see that? I’m not your parent, I’m not aware of your deeply held thoughts, and I’m frankly not interested enough to investigate it on my own. I hadn’t checked your profile because I don’t care what you mod, why would I you narcissistic weirdo?

So you’re being purposefully vague and express yourself in a way where you obviously want to, need to feel like a victim of a slight from strangers on the internet. This isn’t healthy behavior dude, take a deep breath and have a look at how you’re behaving. You don’t need to be a perpetual victim. Just be yourself, it can hardly be worse than whatever the fuck this garbage behavior is. You’re spreading your misery, it’s just bad all around for everyone involved. I won’t ever be engaging with your rubbish again, it somehow manages to perpetually be sadder than last time. Get a grip.

God you’re pathetic, and have a short memory. Here’s your comment from not too long ago when you wrote that you’re gonna be dead in four years. That’s terminal by any definition. At least try to keep your lies straight, you being the mod of c/Jewish doesn’t in anyway imply that you’re not lying… Again. Just pitiful.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Diamond market⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
I was as unaware of your self-proclaimed Jewish heritage, just like I was of your supposed terminal illness you hid behind the last time. You sure seem to like to view yourself as a missile-seeking target it seems. With an uncanny ability to lower the bar to boot. Kudos.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Diamond market⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
So typical for you to just ignore the whole content of the comment pointing out your asinine argument thinking you’re conveying some deep reasoning, just in order to be able to reply to a tiny shred of it like an internet smart ass. Just Squid things, it turns out it’s useless to hope for you to say anything non-pathetic, that’s just who you keep insisting on being. Good for you big guy! Merry Christmas.

The whole economy has already crashed multiple times, based on frivolous financial speculation on a massive scale with fiat currency. Gold, which is not a rock by the way, is at the very least finite so it inhibits the ability of these people to print fake money and burn it up, destroying people’s lives in the process. I’m not saying a gold standard would be preferable, but I do believe the question to be far more nuanced than “idiots wanna base money off of rocks, instead of just feels as we do currently”.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Diamond market⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Well, we do label everything nice as “exclusive”, as in excluding others from ownership. So how nice things are deemed to be seems to be fuelled by pure spite for other people. You can’t have it, so it’s “exclusive”, meaning good and desirable. Our values in modern societies are just awful and misanthropic.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Germans: what genocide?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
That’s because the crime of genocide tends to contain within it multiple instances of crimes against humanity, breaches of the Geneva convention, attacks against civilians and so on. It’s basically the ultimate crime containing all the other crimes within it. And the highest authority on international law in the World, the ICJ, has said that it is plausible that what Israel is doing amounts to a genocide. It really is very clear and simple, if you’re willing to see that is.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Germans: what genocide?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

What exactly are people referring to when the label this a genocide?

This is The UN Convention on the prevention and punishment of the crime of genocide detailing what constitutes a genocide.

Like, what line was crossed where this changed from defending against terrorists to commiting a genocide, in your opinion?

Here’s South Africa’s 84 page indictment with details and receipts on how the genocide Convention is being violated, assuming a good faith and genuine question on your part.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Germans: what genocide?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
The US and Germany are both signatories of the UN arms trade treaty . This is article 6 (3):

“A State Party shall not authorize any transfer of conventional arms covered under Article 2 (1) or of items covered under Article 3 or Article 4, if it has knowledge at the time of authorization that the arms or items would be used in the commission of genocide, crimes against humanity, grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions of 1949, attacks directed against civilian objects or civilians protected as such, or other war crimes as defined by international agreements to which it is a Party”

Mass murder is the name of the game in war. So arming other militaries is always in support of mass murder. But in the eyes of international law some mass murder is acceptable as part of war. But genocide and the other crimes recounted above have been deemed to cross the threshold of acceptability in international law, and therefore are meant to stop the transfer of arms immediately. If the US and Germany were to acknowledge that these crimes are being perpetrated by Israel, they’d have to stop transferring arms. Mass murder in itself is admittedly wrong, but that alone is not sufficient to trigger a halt to arms exports. Therefore, it is of great importance to keep repeating: this is a genocide, and those arming the perpetrators are complicit in their crimes.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Germans: what genocide?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Germany has supplied 30% of Israel s weapons, and has continued to do so during this ongoing genocide. If Germany or the US were to acknowledge the ongoing genocide, they’d have to stop supplying those arms immediately, hence stopping the annihilation of Gaza. So it’s of immense importance to keep repeating what most of the world already acknowledges: this is a genocide, and those arming the perpetrators are complicit in their crimes. History will not judge Germany well, but I guess that’s not exactly a new thing for a veteran perpetrator of genocide.
