what is "unnatural"?

half baked idea but i was considering how society is structured in a way where working against one's own nature in pursuit of some form of success is in certain cases applauded (e.g. overworking, sexual repression), yet calling something "unnatural" is still considered a valid way to claim that something is bad

and not just that but what is socially viewed as natural or unnatural seems to overtake what is 'truthfully' natural or unnatural

i don't know i was reading this article on opposing intellectual property and somehow wound up thinking about this

let me know what you think ?

i feel like what is “natural” is what ppl think the average is, so generally if something is higher or lower than average it’s considered unnatural? idk

“unnatural” might just be a negative connotation of saying different or smth

yeahh,, that is weird. “truthfully” natural or unnatural, could that be what is biologically natural or unnatural? this reminded me of sapiens by yuval noah harari which ive been reading. he argues such a thing doesnt exist. anything a human is physically and biologically able to do has to be natural, by definition. yet society still condemns the unnatural (often using myths about science and biology). thats kinda whack ngl

natural Deb3 d serr uno d los nombres d dios (El), dios:orden, logica sentido. Estricto acomodo, desgraciado universo k amaramos conjuntamentE (mente!!) lo poco natural debera d ser aquello que altere nuestro orden, la degeneración debe girar en torno a un bien establecido para poder corromperlo (kien decidio eso?, kien coloco lass barreras dl bien???) amame, quiereme, bajo sus definiciones, lo natural puede moldearse a las necesidades d la clase dominante, es una carta trampa. es efectiva. como sonido, amor, amor. Lo antinatural es la prueba d que dios no existe (el dios k decidas, el dios de las decadas) no es real. fuera del mundo, lo inatural debe de encontrarse fuera dl mundo, como las estrellas...
