4ish orders of magnitude’s between fly neuron counts and a human’s. Not to mention mammals tend to have more synapses per neuron than invertebrates.

So I’d say, no humans are not next.

Probably easiest to go to fish next for simplicity, but with the prevalence of mice in neural studies, maybe we’ll skip fish and move right on to mice.

Then to some primate(s), maybe working our way up through several species.

Then humans.

No, have you?

I heard my sister say “Yeah I usually wear a double zero” and it was at that moment I realized there is absolutely no regulation of women’s clothing, only chaos.

I think the most extreme and consistent bipolar weather I’ve seen was in Nevada where during the night it’d get down to 30°F (-1°C) and then almost as soon as the sun came up the frost would evaporate as daytime temperatures rose to 113°F (45°C)

In terms of chaos, I’d say Utah takes the cake. Not just because it can go from snowing to 90°F weather and back repeatedly in a week, but because during those chaotic weeks you can drive less than an hour in any direction and find completely different weather.

If violence in the chaos is desired, the southern Midwest probably wins. Tornadoes and golf ball sized hail will fuck up your day and then everything is unbearably sunny again. The east is a close second since it gets wrecked by hurricanes occasionally, but less frequently than tornadoes hit the midwest

I doubt Californians think their state is bipolar. Same with other temperate states.

Anarchy existed long before Noam Chomsky…? Also, full disclosure, I didn’t even know Noam Chomsky was associated with Anarchist thought. I only know his name since it comes up in linguistics (I’m not a linguist just ADHD and interested in conlangs)

Anyway, I don’t really see how anarchy can at all be libertarianism since the latter isn’t socialist…? Perhaps I’m just not familiar enough with modern libertarianism, but iirc libertarians tend to very strongly believe in private property and keeping businesses free from government regulation. Neither of which are beliefs shared by any anarchists I’ve ever met.

On the note of CIA control, isn’t the easiest method of controlling leftists trying to create division and separation between leftists because smaller groups cause less of a threat? And, if that’s the case, aren’t these anti-anarchist memes a form of that exact kind of control tactics?

I feel like I’ve been seeing lots of anti-anarchist shitposts lately. Is there some new Lemmy tea à la leftist-infighting that I’m unaware of? Or is it just typical rage bait from ml?

There is life deep within the earth that will likely survive no matter what happens to the planet. The sun could fade, we could nuke the surface, have an asteroid completely resurface half the planet, and microbes will survive and eventually recolonize the entire world.

Not that we’d want a mass extinction of so many unique and beautiful things, but it is a comforting thought to realize we can’t really do anything that would render earth entirely devoid of life. And even if everything we know was lost, life would rise again to reclaim the rubble.

Can’t tell if this is meant as a jab at Anarchists or Communists.

The Anarchist doesn’t want there to be a centralized hierarchy since it gives people absolute power over their fellow men, so they’re asking like “what part of DICTATORSHIP do you not understand?”

The Communist is asking “what part of dictatorship of the PROLETARIAT do you not understand?” Because they think the society Anarchists want is a form of a dictatorship-of-the-proletariat.
