The problem is that you can not soundly prove your claims. You can not soundly prove that I'm conflating statements and beliefs, that I'm misrendering...

One has to prove that neo-nazi problem exists, if it is relevant and to whom. Neo-nazi activists are present both in Russia and all western countries,...

I didn't talk about existence, but about relevance on a negotiation table as you seemed interested to discuss.

Unfortunately for you, my objections to your ignoratio elenchi fallacy do not depend on my theory as I clearly stated: Which I'm not questioning. Inde...

A logic reader will understand that you are not logic.

A logic reader will understand that I'm not conflating anything. And it's precisely b/c I'm not conflating belief and statements that I can prove wher...

Both of your claims sound correct as much as the 4 following ones: If all propositions can possibly be either true or false, and false propositions ca...

This is a very messy argument. But before tossing it into the trash bin (along with all your other catastrophic arguments), let’s clarify a few points...

You are taking it too personally, sir. I had fun primarily in being articulate, clear, focused, logic and versatile while formulating my objections ag...

Look, I didn't mean to wreck your self-confidence. You put yourself into a corner, despite my repeated warnings, and started beating yourself with suc...

Here other objections: The major problem of your definition of “belief” , among others, is that - in a case of belief based on ignorance of the releva...

Where? can you give me a few links? The challenge is: can you justify that claim in a way that is understandable to me (based on assumptions that we b...

This objection is maybe based on my poor phrasing. I re-edited my text to better express what I wanted to say.
February 25, 2022 at 21:47
I misunderstood your argument because this is how you presented it: Jack believes that broken clock is working. The above report is in proper linguist...
February 25, 2022 at 19:51
@"creativesoul" Let's not forget that you made the following claim: So I would expect you to prove that "Jack believes that broken clock is working" i...
February 25, 2022 at 19:30
Well if we accept all your premises (and I haven't accepted any so far) maybe you are right, yet it doesn't prove that your report is accurate. I poin...

I might conflate whatever you see me conflating if you continue to frame my questions. But I will return to such a claim of yours later because I susp...

try again (6th time):

Then quote yourself when you explain what "is working" stands for. Because this is what I asked. And if you not find it, that's because you did not an...

No. In the example "Jack believes that clock is working", the belief content is the fitness condition expressed by the completive clause, so it's the ...

Impossible? We are discussing here if "that clock is working" is more or less accurate than "that broken clock is working". The full account I'm askin...

I answered that already. Belief contents express the point of view (the intrinsic fitness conditions) of Jack's believing attitudes which best explain...

February 21, 2022 at 10:41
So you do not claim that “At t1, Jack believes that broken clock is working” is more accurate than “At t1, Jack believes that clock is working”? Becau...

Indeed, there is loss of explanatory power, b/c by removing those parts you are attributing to Jack a contradictory belief so you can not distinguish ...
