@"Skyclark " Incorrect according to you.
May 26, 2021 at 16:26
@"skyblack" According to you. I just gave you some examples.
May 26, 2021 at 16:22
@"skyblack" So we just disagree on the word. To me some beliefs are knowing. And some knowing is wrong. I believe and know the sun will rise tommorow....
May 26, 2021 at 16:17
@"skyblack" OK. Your using belief in terms of not being factual. I don't think this is the best way. Some beliefs are true or facts. I believe in my a...
May 26, 2021 at 16:09
@"Tiberiusmoon" See now your admitting everyone is not biased. So take it on a case by case basis. And those people that are biased,mainly they choose...
May 26, 2021 at 15:26
@"NOS4A2" Bingo! Common sense and some balls at last!
May 26, 2021 at 14:48
@"Tiberiusmoon" But your general point still doesn't stand. Not everyone is biased by society. Do you not believe in individual agency?
May 26, 2021 at 14:47
@"Joshs" Full disclosure I've always been convinced that first hand experience or a type of phenomenology is the grounding for all knowledge in princi...
May 26, 2021 at 14:44
@"Joshs" Very interesting! I think freud was really too wedded to science and too concerned with publishing work deemed scientific. Would you class ni...
May 26, 2021 at 14:42
@"Apollodorus" Now this is a thread! I'm sure I'm gonna disagree on lots of things,and I'm not a plato fan. But finally,someone does justice to the my...
May 26, 2021 at 14:38
@"Tiberiusmoon" But your using an extreme example. And not everybody has anger issues. You are universalising behaviour.
May 26, 2021 at 14:32
@"Hanover" Is it OK for a poor white person in South Africa to call a poor black person a derogative slur because he feels he has black privilege? And...
May 26, 2021 at 14:30
@"Joshs" So do you think husserl was right to change his mind? I feel psychologism is correct.
May 26, 2021 at 14:23
@"Tiberiusmoon" The fact that racism exists does not mean everyone is biased but means that some people are biased.
May 26, 2021 at 14:21
@"Hanover" Nobody really says I have a prejudice against bananas. And I doubt many would be confused at the use of the word this way. But,in cutting t...
May 26, 2021 at 13:51
@"Tiberiusmoon" The problem with your theory is once again it makes a mockery of words,and assumes its conclusion without warrant. If everyone is soci...
May 26, 2021 at 13:25
@"Tiberiusmoon" So your assuming people want to change. And assuming everyone has been corrupted by their culture. Any proof of either?
May 26, 2021 at 12:49
That's better!
May 26, 2021 at 12:47
@"Benkei" How about putting the original post from tiberiusmoon? No argument? You mean no answer!
May 26, 2021 at 12:46
@"Baden" Scared of truth.
May 26, 2021 at 12:44
@"Benkei" Yep. So specialised that you can hide behind the definition when it suits. Its called lawyer double speak. Go and clarify with 180 if he thi...
May 26, 2021 at 12:41
@"Baden" I've backed up everything and you and your cronies are just dancing around the issue. It's seems to me you think YOU are the arbiter of what ...
May 26, 2021 at 12:39
@"Banno" And? You know they have Korean and black jesus. Is that racist as well?
May 26, 2021 at 12:35
@"Baden" Absurdity hypotheticals?! Have you seen some of the governments in Africa? False? It's that you didn't agree mate. Nothing was false.
May 26, 2021 at 12:34
@"Baden" And there are no powerful oppressive black leaders?
May 26, 2021 at 12:31
@"Baden" So by the same token black jesus is racist as well?
May 26, 2021 at 12:30
@"Baden" Well,given the context I saw different. Any other contexts? Because it seems that if its one of yours the context is stretched to incredulity...
May 26, 2021 at 12:28
@"Baden" Of course. But what contextualisation? Whether it's backed by institutional power or individual? Because both are racism.
May 26, 2021 at 12:21
@"Banno" Go tell your wife mate.
May 26, 2021 at 12:17
@"Banno" Voyeur.
May 26, 2021 at 12:16
@"Benkei" You mean based on your reading habits and comprehension skills! The problem is glaring. Myself and others have said these definitions are du...
May 26, 2021 at 12:14
@"Banno" Its a shame you don't get it though!
May 26, 2021 at 12:10
@"Banno" All true news. Not your fake stuff. And well above your pay grade.
May 26, 2021 at 12:05
@"Baden" Nope,I judge people as I meet them through behaviour,not the town they inhabit. Run out of ideas mate?
May 26, 2021 at 12:04
@"Benkei" Biased in favour of Family! Wow. Your hilarious. So now bias has no meaning either. Wittgenstein and banno have dropped dead on the ice!
May 26, 2021 at 12:02
@"Benkei" Because it allows people to hide their bigotry and Racism under the guise of being just prejudiced. I mean people say black people can't be ...
May 26, 2021 at 12:00
@"Baden" Who the hell said I agree with your sophist definition of prejudice to even include Family. So everything is prejudice now? Get our of town m...
May 26, 2021 at 11:57
Come on @"Banno",are you seeing @"Baden" with his outlandish eccentricity of words? Or have you gone silent about the linguistic and behavioural sins ...
May 26, 2021 at 11:55
@"Baden" Absolute sophistry. A mockery of words. So this renders pretty much any relationship with anyone a "prejudice"?
May 26, 2021 at 11:53
@"Banno" Read benkeis Post above. Obviously doesn't seem to be historical in the Netherlands. @"Benkei"
May 26, 2021 at 11:50
@"Baden" In your topsy Turvey world. Family is a prejudice! That is the best nonsense comment I've heard since I did not have relations with that woma...
May 26, 2021 at 11:49
Always funny when someone reduces religion to virgin sacrifices. Making a strawman for his own complacency and anxiety about religion. News flash; Rel...
May 26, 2021 at 11:45
@"Banno" Funny how it's clear what my position is. Yet you want to differentiate as to make prejudice acceptable or some lesser sin.
May 26, 2021 at 11:40
@"BitconnectCarlos" Without a doubt any sane person would pick his close Family above all else. As for "ethnic" or "religious" grouping me personally ...
May 26, 2021 at 11:39
@"Banno" Most ironic thing is a lot of philosophers in the Canon were blatantly racially prejudiced. Your quote is just an Elitist philosopher saying ...
May 26, 2021 at 11:35
@"Baden" It seems to me your are just using bigotry,and saying "look,I'm not racist, I'm better than blatant racists". Being a trump supporter or Demo...
May 26, 2021 at 11:29
@"Banno" I thought language was use according to you. The meaning of words is not always static or from dictionaries. Even by your dictionary,prejudic...
May 26, 2021 at 11:18
@"Baden" Just so we are clear. Prejudice towards who and why? Why the need for pre-judge,which implies judging too quickly and wrongfully. Give me a c...
May 26, 2021 at 11:05
@"I like sushi" @"Jack Cummins" I have followed this forum for maybe a couple of years before I joined so I know the partisanship in terms of certain ...
May 26, 2021 at 10:57
@"I like sushi" I do get the US is somewhat different in the media. But still,right is right. If in these peoples quest to dispel racism you become ra...
