This sounds like speculation, NATO’s stance is flexible especially during this conflict. As the Russians are clearly playing dirty then NATO expansion...

I see a way for Ukraine to still emerge victorious but having to concede territory only short term and momentarily and in so doing joins NATO aka US a...

If Russia entered this war purely for the egotistic fantasy of reuniting the former soviet bloc then that kinda of error can prove fatal to future lea...

A most eloquent quote Frank and a great summary of Sophocles - Antigone. Indeed the two deceased brothers Polynices and Eteocles could almost be twins...

That made me laugh. It seems it will have little impact on the war maybe now Russians have confidence and confirmation to retreat. They won’t though. ...

Philosophy needs a marketing department for sure but there’s a lack of funding

Words can impact your silence especially if said loudly. Language is meant to communicate between two skulls orders and ideas. If one monkey is being ...

Anyone know what the leaked info contained ? Some jackass shared sensitive info about the war apparently…what was in it ?

A most valid point, albeit with the niggling notion of defining the word unchanging (including motion). Aristotle seems to imply that the eternal is s...

We have some semblance of transparency at last as to what you meant. But you know nothing and Socrates would be proud. Knowing is a very close relatio...

Still spending more time on style over substance but what do I know. Knowing is a tricky word if you make it out to be

That’s actually a rich one
