It's part of the dialectical process.

I think it's just an expression of one of the meanings of "knowledge."

I agree with this. I interpreted Adorno differently. I don't want to drag the thread through parts of the text that have already been covered, but jus...

The concept is the union of opposites, the union of subject and object. The nonconceptual is the disunity of same.

When I was reading ND, this is the meaning of "concept" I was thinking of. If you were using a different meaning, we would come up with very different...

I didn't say knowledge is confidence in one's belief. I said we use the word to express that we're confident. The reasons for that confidence vary. In...

I don't think your conception of knowledge is going to stand up to a skeptical challenge. At any time, we may be mistaken about our justifications. So...

I think the concept is about how the mind works, so it's dynamic. It's about standing the thing against a backdrop of its negation, like the black dot...

Carbon monoxide levels are higher, which you can duplicate by stuffing a rag in your tail pipe. Or tale pipe.

I guess I agree with your professor.
September 23, 2025 at 20:10
I think this is all pretty thoroughly incorrect. You could start with just understanding Hegelian dialectics.
September 23, 2025 at 12:10
That's ok. I'm permanently wildered.
September 23, 2025 at 09:01
A reason to think about negative dialectics in the first place is the failure of Marxism to accurately predict events. Many people put everything on t...

I don't know what you mean by "John's subjective truth." S is either true or false. Having a limited, subjective perspective just means there is falli...

If you start stuttering on purpose, you may have a moment where you can't stop. I advise against it. Unless you want to stutter.

Ok, but doesn't that mean the "other America" you spoke of is 80-85% of the population? Is that what you meant?
September 21, 2025 at 23:05
80% of the US population is considered urban., but Trump got 49.1% of the popular vote.. I think the community you're referring to is educated urbanit...

There are all kinds of things that squash looks like. I don't guess I need to mention any of them. Maybe it's called buttercup because you put a whole...

It occurs to me that I like steamed squash better because I like the fibrous texture, which isn't there when you broil it. So you just call all winter...

Why does it need to be brown? Salmon is good steamed also. An acorn squash is not a pumpkin. I didn't know there was a buttercup squash. Butternut is ...
September 21, 2025 at 01:18
I think it's easier and faster to steam it in a rice cooker, then put sliced almonds and honey over it. The broiling takes forever.

According to CBS, the FCC's threats are clearly unconstitutional, and ABC/Disney could easily bring it to the Supreme Court, where all nine justices w...

That's incorrect. It's "Jews.". But Soros is legendary among day traders. More like Hell Boy.
September 20, 2025 at 00:43
Regular Christians don't think Jews are trying to destroy white people. Kirk did believe that.
September 19, 2025 at 23:41
That's correct.
