Any life affirming philosophy is good but without any of the wishy washy philosophy which can seem new age etc.

The thing about smart mother fuckers is that sometimes, they sound like crazy mother fuckers to stupid mother fuckers... Some quote by some guy

It would certainly send a message to China for sure. The war would be over in days. This passive approach is costing more lives than it is saving. I m...

Just tell Biden to go Bush on Putin. Pre-emptive. Also tell Biden not to give two craps about Europe if it becomes collateral damage in all this. Russ...

I think you give the elites to much credit as for politicians most have no principles and are naive. But then because anyone can make it we all have t...

No doubt Russia is using the same logic you’ve outlined to gain their advantage. Both can play at that game. Conceding territory for such idealistic r...

Most empiricism stuff and deductive knowledge through logic can be certain. 2+2 = 4

That does not matter. Humans still don’t know how consciousness is produced in our brains even with dissection, MMR, MRI, etc

Don’t get me wrong from a literary point of view they can express themselves fairly well. I get a sense that he has a superiority complex compared to ...

The optimist invents the airplane the pessimist the parachute. Both ways of thinking are necessary.
