You know someone who won’t be able to learn from this comment?

The humans have slightly more agency than the bull, but sure.

I don’t think one can have much of a problem with this if they also support companies that utilize factory farming.

“Those Mayans sure like their human sacrifice, but hey, it’s a different culture. To each their own!”

Yeah, invoking cultural relativism on behalf of the culture that cheers humans smashing other humans’ brains into senility does not make a strong anti-bullfighting argument.

Good old cultural relativism, excusing and justifying cruelty and bigotry you can afford not to care about personally.

Torture and abuse culture isn’t something that should be glorified or respected...

That doesn’t solve anything merits are still entirely relative.

I think you have to defend on a thing on its own merits. Invoking cultural relativism means you also have to accept things like genital mutilation, sharia law, etc.

Same reason why idiots vote republican and cling to dirty industry and fossil fuel as a primary source of energy.

I have a hard time wrapping my brain around the fact that there are Cosby supporters. It would be like saying Jim Jones was just handing out cool beverages on a warm day.

Also, Ben Roethlisberger is 35 and has openly flirted with retirement,

Agree. Was going to make the exact same comment. Diana is an excellent writer and reporter.

Excellent writing. Thank you.

And now it is only a 1% fatality rate, I moved a decimal point. So it has gotten safer and easier, but still not as safe or easy as renting Everest.

Yeah, thanks. I replied to myself that I screwed that up but, you know, Kinja. I called it safer than Jarts.

Dammit, math is hard. 100 out of 10,000 is a 1% mortality rate.

That is an actual thing on Everest. It’s located on the other side in communist China. The only thing is, it’s overcrowded with bros who just took up mountaineering a few months ago and now act like they know everything there is to know about mountain climbing.

It’s a fucking joke dude. If you read that and suddenly need to support Trump, you were already there anyways.

The Bernie Step would have still been there.
