I read that you dropped "name the trait" in reference to your veganism.... Peter Singer ... Veganism and hatred of the disabled - how do they go together? I thought you vegans are against suffering and want to prevent it, so why this latent and unfounded hatred? :)
First of all, who are "you vegans"? You are communicating with me, an individual, and not an imaginary, homogeneous group that follows the same dogma and thinks the same thoughts in every aspect of life. Such a portrayal of a group already reveals a lot and takes away any desire for further discussion from the outset. Nevertheless, I will still address the rest of your message.
Yes, I have already presented "name the trait" as a kind of verifiability for logical consistency in the context of veganism, and I am also familiar with Peter Singer and his philosophy. Furthermore, I am, of course, aware of the criticism of his preference utilitarianism, especially in my home country, which is not surprising given the country's history; historically, Germany cannot dissociate itself from the accusations of eugenics during the National Socialist era.
Without wanting to unnecessarily deepen this discussion, I would like to ask you whether you have also familiarized yourself with his writings and philosophy or whether, like many, you simply repeat what is commonly criticized without delving into it further. That's how your previous message comes across to me. Personally, your standpoint seems to deliberately misinterpret his writings to build a semblance of an argument, if it can even be called that. Your attempt to introduce a kind of strawman in the form of the allegedly homogeneous group of vegans does not really cast your message in a better light.
I am happy and willing to discuss philosophy and other topics at any time, but only if I see a certain meaningfulness and a real exchange in it. In your case, I see neither.
And by the way: Perhaps you should ask me about my reasons for veganism before arguing against it and assuming that Peter Singer's philosophy is my sole reason, because - and I can tell you this much - it is not.
And I yearned to gather each tear's soft remain,
as if pouring them back;
was to spawn a healing rain, to ease the pain;
in eyes that saw through all the things I've done,
forever closed, when two souls began to feel like one.

you inspired me to eat two steaks and two burgers extra every day :)
Arteriosclerosis, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, peripheral arterial disease, arterial hypertension, cancer; just to name a few, because the list goes on and on. But if that's a risk worth taking to you to try to annoy a person on the internet who couldn't care less about you existence and your actions, then by all means go for it.
Klingt voll cool :) Stehst du dann auch auf so nerdy zeug wie cosplays, comic con oder sowas in der art?
Ich kann die Begrifflichkeit nur begrenzt einordnen, aber ich denke nicht, nein. Ich war noch nie auf einer Convention oder ähnlichem und für Cosplays kann ich mich auch nicht wirklich begeistern.
Es gibt ein paar Spiele/Bücherreihen, welche ich recht interessant finde. Dazu zählen zum Beispiel die Monster Hunter und die Metro Reihe, wobei ich bei letztgenannten sowohl die Spiele als auch Bücher sehr unterhaltsam fand.
Was bedeutet für dich Schmerz?
Schmerz verdeutlicht mir am Leben zu sein.
Ich sehe in seiner Existenz nichts unliebsames, vielmehr setzen mir die langen Zeiträume der Gleichgültigkeit zu, wenn ich zu lange nicht von ihr ablassen kann; Oder will. Die wortkargen Versprechen von Apathie und Lethargie können anfangs betörend wirken, aber alles hat seinen Preis.
Why don't you answer my message in your inbox? :(
By being anonymous, you make it quite difficult for me to match you to a specific question. But if I haven't answered it, it's most likely because I don't find it interesting, don't have the time, willingness, or creativity at the moment, the "question" wasn't a question but another unnecessary side note on a topic of your choice, or a mixture of the reasons above.
You write beautiful poetry, you are good looking, athletic, have abs, are intelligent and can express yourself beautifully. What's the catch? Why are you single?
I've never shared anything about my relationship status here; intentionally, by the way, as it only leads to strange questions or messages.
I guess the catch would be that my flirting game involves me sending cat memes and that's it.
Would you agree that you should follow your heart and that what makes you feel good is always right for you?
Again, I would like to mention that words like "right" and "wrong" have no special meaning. I think nothing is inherently right or wrong, just as nothing is good or bad; these are all just categories into which we divide the world so as not to be overwhelmed by its complexity. With that being said, I don't think that everything that feels good is good or right for you unless you look at it from a hedonistic point of view.
It is sad to see that you have such a wrong image of yourself, you are such a sweet, romantic and talented man <3
Is it really me who has a false image of myself, or is it you? You know me through a self-directed blog with selected content, I've known myself for over a quarter of a century, completely without euphemisms and in raw form.
With fear I watched your rage unleash,
a rage that seemed to find no peace.
Grew into footsteps — worn with ire,
cursed to bear the same old fire.
Now grown, my fear lies in the past,
although your shadow still is cast,
whenever rage runs through my veins,
binding me to your old chains.
