@sim people are different, a writer who spends their days at a desk and occasionally going for walks will require less protein than an olympic athlete
same with lifestyles, some people can work harder with little need for recreation, others need a little more chaos uncertainty to thrive and be creative
the idea one can provide a single heterogeneous moral mean for all humanity seems detached from reality , unless you're aiming for something very abstract that can be so generalised
@sim yeah I figured it was either Aristotle or Plato, should have guessed from the discussion about the mean
everyone has their own mean I think, so to judge someone for being "vicious" is often projecting our issues onto them, doesn't really help anyone
have you read any Girard? he goes into projection and mimetics alot; things hidden since the foundation of the world almost turned me Christian, it's that trenchant
@sim any clear delineation between virtue and vice, barring the most egregious of acts, is not east to fine and often a matter of one's personality
@thedonnerd @11112011 what if you reported the newws
