That’s not weird. That’s how functional societies reconcile when they aren’t subjected to endless propaganda and fear mongering.
I mean, it is weird in the sense that it is unusual. But that doesn’t make it bad, in fact it should become more normal.
Yeah, I wouldn’t say history shows humans usually treat outsiders really nicely but I agree this should be an example we strive for.
I’d go so far as to say it’s bad that it is unusual
No what’s ‘weird’ is so many not understanding that ‘weird’ isn’t automatically negative. or maybe more disturbing that so many automatically go there at first instinct.
Migration leading to mixed cultures instead of genocide and colonization. Americans: “This is so weird!”
“In this here melting pot, we burn away all our differences until we’re left with only the pure white flame of Christian nationalism.”
I had to put the statement in quotes because while being hyperbole, it’s not too far from how some people think, and I don’t want to be confused with those folks.
Need photos this sounds adorable
This post has been up an hour and we have no fucking information this is unacceptable.
That’s not weird, that’s how things should be. Working together.
I don’t think jewelry wearing is compatible with the Amish conception of propriety and modesty but I’m not going to say it wouldn’t happen.
My grandpa rents some of his fields out to an amish guy who also rents a lot of other fields in the area. The amish in our area are known to be pretty loose with their rules so my grandpa wasn’t surprised when the guy showed up with combine harvester but he was kind of surprised with how new it was. My grandpa asked him how he could drive a combine when they weren’t allowed to drive cars. To which the amish guy responded, “Well, I don’t actually drive the combine; it drives itself. I just sit in it.”
Sounds like the Amish would be ok with a robotic vacuum as long as it charged itself from a solar panel.
Quite possibly. A lot of their electricity aversion stems from avoidance of relying on an electric grid owned and maintained by outsiders.
(Which to be fair is also pretty based)
Are there actually Amish people in India?
I can’t tell if this is real or not.
American Indians, the term hasn’t died out in the New World quite yet.
