I’m saying that competitiveness usually also comes from fear.
My point was that it’s a negative sum game, we are all competing with each other in an unhealthy manner, in which we are all poorer collectively as a result.
100% agree
Isn’t competition in the US just another way of fearing being a less than person? I’ve known healthy competitors that just compete with themselves, but it’s rare.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump reportedly gifts cabinet members and White House visitors with Florsheim shoes
3·5 days agoIt’s probably somehow a dick move on his part, like flood the zone is for the media. If the republicans are uncomfortable, they’re less likely to talk back, maybe?

politics @lemmy.world•Trump reportedly gifts cabinet members and White House visitors with Florsheim shoes
12·5 days agoWhat?
One female White House official observed wryly: “All the boys have them.” Another added: “It’s hysterical because everybody’s afraid not to wear them.”
Edit: The more I think about this, the more I love it. All of the republicans are probably in ill-fitting shoes and very uncomfortable. Noice.

1·7 days agoI believe all of those things you listed were much worse in the 70s
Who are the current young people’s parents? Do you think any adverse effects are biologically inherited?
You are being really dumb about this. MSG comes from beets or seaweed or other shit. A person might be allergic to beets OR seaweed. I know you think you’re being smart about this, but you’re not.
What is MSG made from? Could it be that they’re allergic to the base and that there is a threshold? I hope to fuck you aren’t a scientist and you are an amazingly shitty person.

You’re going to have to elaborate on what a genuine disability is there chief. Let me help you out:
- lead poisoning.
- microplastics
- plastics in general
- glyphosate (round up)
- air pollution
- mosquito spraying
- etc.
