You said he's only being charged with witness tampering. Your only argument to support that is that you're not a lawyer and therefore are unqualified ...
please be specific. Right now it seems immensely clear to me that he's being charged with numerous things other than intimidating witnesses, and it's ...
Do you have any resources to demonstrate why you think he's being charged with just witness tampering? https://www.theguardian.com/global/2023/aug/02/...
No, I think you're misinterpreting a whole lot if you think that's the meat of Trump's alleged crimes. That may be ONE of Trump's crimes, I guess, tho...
It's because it's politically motivated, which makes sense - it's conservative Revenge, in Trump's own words. Dems dared to hold Trump responsible for...
I'm glad you pointed out China is really just a perverse form of capitalism. China doesn't really prove anything in favour of or against communism, im...
I think your approach is promising, but I also think it's at least currently incomplete. "Consciousness is just computation", while I agree is actuall...
If you assume anything is primitive, you can answer the same "how" question. How does consciousness arise? It's primitive. How does life work? It's pr...
I have the opposite intuition - doesn't a physical structure require a framework of sorts? And one would think mathematical (or computational/algorith...
The strength of a conspiracy theory decreases the more people you need to be in on the lie. Climate Change as a conspiracy theory needs the vast major...
"Follow the money". Fantastic advice. Let's follow the money for your source. https://climateinvestigations.org/heritage-foundation/ https://www.thegu...
it's a good question, and even though I feel like I have an intuitive understanding of the idea, I don't think I could express it clearly myself. It's...
When I said it's not like we can explain it with something else, that wasn't an ontological statement - that wasn't me saying, ontologically, i KNOW n...
That's of course fine for you to think that, but your question was 'why should we suppose?' and the answer is 'because everything we can sense and det...
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the question, but my impulse is to answer that we've seen physical brains by opening up skulls. That's why I suppose they...
I like this response. I don't really jive with the logic that "science doesn't have a complete account of consciousness, therefore science will never ...
I'm just directly responding to the question of evidence. I think the hard problem of consciousness IS a hard problem. I don't disagree with you that ...
A pretty simple piece of evidence is how frequently we observe that changes in matter produce changes in consciousness. Drugs are an example. The chan...
Sounds remarkably similar to max Tegmarks mathematical universe. It seems to me to also imply a sort of mathematical causality - if these numerical va...
Ok so you realise it was your idea to do that, so let me just reiterate how inappropriate is for you to complain to me about how bad your idea was. If...
I think you should just let go of the "force" wording. When someone disagrees with you, on a philosophy forum of all places, they are not "forcing" yo...
this is very funny If you feel like you're being forced to believe something because someone says something you disagree with, yes I think you need to...
I suppose that's an accurate description, but it was focused trolling with a purpose. I'm demonstrating the absurdity of the claim you made that you'r...
I just wanted to discuss who is forcing you to think a certain way. You said it was me. If I didn't make you feel threatened, did I physically harm yo...
That podcast I linked before - if you don't want to listen to the whole thing, the most relevant bit is between 20min - 35min. They're talking about t...
I interpreted our exchange in exactly the opposite way. I never told you there's all these obvious problems with whatever your world view is. You said...
If you're interested in hearing a couple scientists talk about it casually, and wildly speculate far beyond that, this is pretty good: https://spotify...
I've made as much sense of it as I'm going to. If you don't understand the intuitive notion that the rules by which reality evolves from past states t...
There probably isn't a point, I said upfront that I'm not capable of convincing you nor would I even want to. Most people don't see the would this way...
no, I don't see a problem. I don't think there is any explicit problem with the idea. I think you may not like the idea for your own philosophical rea...
They somehow think that republican leaders harping on ad nauseum about how mail in voting is untrustworthy and every voter should come vote in person ...
You must be insensitive to your own rudeness. That's understandable, most people have an easier time perceiving other people's rudeness than their own...
A good representation of what? You keep saying things like "inadequate" or "not a good representation". Some measurements are adequate for some purpos...
you have two examples to the contrary and that doesn't give you pause. If making it easier to vote were good for conservatives, why in the world did D...
Bingo. These guys see that when voting is made easier, a lot of people vote left. They see this as evidence of corruption on the left, they completely...
