I’m not seeing how this in anyway even really touches on this issue at hand. A paper on human development to show that “science says” we have a “human” at the moment of conception?

At the end of the day this is going to just be about what your definition of a “human” is rather than anything “science” has to say.

The one you list lastly seems like the only actual reason. The others are things they DONT care about

Christian nationalism is just the merging of Christian and American identity. “America is a Christian nation”. You hear similar often from pandering and or deranged Republicans

On the science side it's a human from the moment of conception.

This basically underpins the whole thing and is pretty hand waved away

I’d really love to see some better propositions for quantifying value that’s better than straight up corporate profit. I’m with you a 100%, just looking for the path to get there.

I agree that we shouldn’t devalue it, and that was my initial word choice. That wasn’t the intent behind the choice, but I get it. I’m not sure “essential” is a good descriptor either. It is essential, but that’s not the defining quality we’re after.

Only if we continue to be dumbasses

We need to take universal basic income more seriously as a future policy

Having robots to do grunt work and that somehow being bad for our society is just the dumbest timeline. Fucking cunts
