balderdash9,

I think someone else in this thread said it best. The more power you have the more temptation there is to fulfill your whims. Why do you think billionaires live the way that they do?

At least, that’s how I see human nature. I made this post because I think there’s room for reasonable debate.

balderdash9,

The Ring of Gyges is a hypothetical magic ring mentioned by the philosopher Plato in Book 2 of his Republic (~375 BC). It grants its owner the power to become invisible at will. Through the device of the ring, this section of the Republic considers whether a rational, intelligent person who has no need to fear negative consequences for committing an injustice would nevertheless act justly.

So many ideas trace their roots back to ancient Greece/China. I guess there’s nothing new under the sun.

balderdash9,

That was the weirdest video essay I’ve ever seen. Liked and subscribed lol

balderdash9,

Why would they have to tell you? Everyone knows!! /s

balderdash9,

Some of the popular ones that are OC, yeah.

balderdash9,

idk why, but this made me laugh hard

balderdash9,

When I first got on Lemmy I only posted OC. But Ive since realized two things: 1) creating content takes time/effort and 2) no one cares or notices that you’re just doing OC.

So now I sprinkle in reposts if I haven’t seen them on here before.
