shitting in clean drinking water is one of the dumbest things you can do

its actually very smart and cool if you have proper plumbing and water treatment. obviously if you're some kind of slav monkey you should save your clean water for boiling as a weapon against gypsies

Thats right my guys. Use a shitload of energy to manufacture and transport ozone and build filter beds that cover massive areas of arable land to allow fatboy here to squirt out orange semi-lipid remainders into water cleaner than that drunk by 90% of the world's population.

yeah lets spend an enormous amount of time and energy building a system which deliberately pollutes clean water then haemorraghes nutrients and pathogens into nearby bodies of water. smart and cool yall

yah p much. if you hate your terlet so much theres always the option to unlock your ancestral memory and drop thine trousers on yonder cobblestones

this would make sense if, like in the pre-industrial period, we had guys who went around at night picking it all up to spread on the fields and tan leather and such

while i can''t disagree that the pre-industrial period's human waste policy was certainly a marvel of public health and aroma, i should also add that they likely abandoned everybody's beloved crap-in-the-streets-everywhere policy due to capitalist conspiracy

goatstein back in the premodern days of poopeating there was a magic man who told us not to urinate in running water

thats stupid because urine is sterile and drinking running water that a lot of people peed in is better than drinking it from a stagnant pool exposed to the same

Urban sewerage especially is vital to modernity, railing against it seems pretty dumb. It’s like how people whinge about cars in New York while forgetting that before they were invented, the city was drowning in horse in horse shit.

if your model for modernity requires you to destroy your sources of fresh water and strip nutrients from fields you should probably reconsider it

urban sewerage actually made public health much much worse for quite a long time; in the uk it took things getting so disgustingly smelly members of parliament were vomiting in the house of commons for things to change

and by the same token communism killed millions yet this was a failure of implementation and not idea. except thats not a totally fair analogy because toilets are still a thing that people care about

haha goatstein is a communist lol

when you think about it paedophilia was basically the norm for much of human history, and now contemporary society has this massive neurosis about the sexualisation of children that brings it to the level of an Absolute Evil. maybe this is better iono but it certainly contributes to all kind of social ills like frustrated incels shooting up workplaces & baby finland

actually menarche is generally the time when women were considered to become sexual and it historically occurred mostly in women around the ages of 16-17, hope this helps.
