You saw words made of pixels not pixels.

I'm at the tattoo parlour now.

Agreed.

I'm convinced we're not going to find logical inconsistencies in each other's positions but different ways of describing the same thing that work on t...

Stuff that can be seen.

They're seeing the same thing in different ways.

Go for it although I'm unlikely to go too far through this whole rigmarole again. The theoretical differences are mostly just going to boil down to pa...

The object of perception is blue pixels arranged in strawberry shapes. You see red strawberries rather than blue ones because the act of seeing inhere...

The blue pixels arranged in strawberry shapes are mind-independent things which conjoin with the act of perception in which hue adjustment takes place...

Scientifically speaking, grey/green, but that doesn't mean it's necessarily a mistake to call them red. The illusion exploits a loophole in definition...

What I like about the dentist is all that drilling and scraping. Makes me appreciate the upsides of being a mod on a philosophy forum.

What about a "What do you like about going to the dentist" discussion? Might get more takers.

To be fair, I don't think it reflects antisemitism on his part. More like he's too obsessed with himself to care much about this kind of stuff.

Probably safer to just say I'm on @"Mongrel"'s side. Whatever that is.

Yes, and I agree Hanover should pay for everything. It's about time he put his filthy lucre to good use. Mr. Porat is in the basement. Gagged. jamalro...

(As in, obviously the intention isn't to make money, or if it is, we're going about it in a very perverse way.)

I'm not going to get in between you two on the ownership thing. I'm not sure exactly what @"Mongrel" was suggesting. But just as a point of order, we'...

We'll stick that one in the next feature requests list. ;)

It's pretty certain we won't go back to WSN. I know @"jamalrob" likes the set-up here, and so do I, and we haven't done a poll but I doubt it's any le...

Hey, that would be great. I think @"jamalrob" and I are quite happy with most of what we have here, but if you can come up with something better at so...

I thought the unmoderated section at old PF worked well too. But being sent there was essentially a ban - if a very slightly less severe one - and sti...

Anyway, I have to go to work. If anyone wants more reassurance about mod policy, I'll be happy to do that later. Our right-leaning members are as impo...

Those will have to be dealt with too, of course. (It goes without saying that all posts that contravene the guidelines regardless of their political o...

I can confirm that and also that in the end I came round to agreeing with @"Sapientia"'s view. Anyway, tell you what folks, when the next poster expre...

I'm aware of your opinion on this one, thanks, @"Agustino". And I've given my reasons. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

You are utterly ridiculous. Really.

Don't say I never make an effort for you folks. ;)

Well, seeing as everyone's so interested, I will oblige: Straight on to the main issue that got him banned. The Nazis carrying out the holocaust being...

This is almost too silly to respond to. Read my posts above, slowly if necessary, and figure out where you went wrong and why. Hint: your zeal to accu...

Yes, you are wrong. There's an "or" in that sentence (two in fact). You said I accused him of holocaust denial, which I didn't. I stated a policy of w...

"Racists/homophobes/sexists: We don't consider your views worthy of debate, and you'll be banned for espousing them." Antisemitism is covered under ra...

No I didn't. I said: Which is a statement of policy. He did the first one.

Downplaying the holocaust is a form of antisemitism. If you're not aware of that, it's your problem. I do too in general but that's not how it works h...

Well, the fact that we're rid of an idiot too is a bonus I guess. (Y)

I thought you'd use this as an excuse to attack the left. How boring. I would hope if there's one thing the left and right could agree on it would be ...

@"The Great Whatever" The statement "Torturing children is wrong" is ambiguous. It can mean torturing children is wrong in general, or it can mean tor...

Correct, few things are impossible, but he is gone and he is not coming back.

No mistake. Nobody gets to downplay, belittle or deny the holocaust or its seriousness on this site. Weasel-worded obsfucations aren't going to cut it...

Ok, objection noted. Good night.

You could be right. Though I think I'll try reasoning with him first. Different views are fine, but Nazis and their ilk don't get to stay here nor do ...

Damn, it's late, I have work in a few hours and after having spent the last couple debating a Nazi, I'll have to go to the office and sit next to anot...

Well, Emptyheady just got banned for being a Nazi. Anyone for a bagel?

Blah blah blah. You are a Neo-Nazi sympathizer then. Well, goodbye.

I don't think we need to normalize this. The guy just said killing six million Jews in Nazi Germany was morally more acceptable than the Venezuelan go...

So, their poor policies which have resulted in crime rates increasing dramatically is worse morally than the killing of six million Jews. So presumabl...

Answer my question: What is it that the Venezuelan government has done that is worse than killing 6 million Jews?

So what is it that the Venezuelan government has done that is worse than killing 6 million Jews, for example? Also, I want to repeat that the disculpa...

No you didn't answer my question. The Nazis were responsible for the holocaust, yes or no? This was worse than anything the Venezuelan government has ...

Way I see it is that by trying to disculpate Nazi Germany from the holocaust, you're still spreading Neo-Nazi propaganda.

Oh, this is the imaginary Nazi Germany that's not responsible for killing all the Jews and so on because it was Nazi Europe that did that. I see. Now ...
