I know this feeling when you yourself, understanding the topic very well, put forward a hypothesis - a very well-founded and well-developed one. In th...

Yes, that's exactly what I was talking about. It is stated on paper: you are free from everything, just do not violate the rights of others. Freedom l...

Let me ask you a question. Why do you consider all opinions that differ from yours to be reductionist and one-sided? What if I personally agree with m...

Thank you for your response, I am really interested in the idea of outdoor practices. What is particularly interesting is the lack of a methodology fo...
September 16, 2025 at 02:44
I really liked your idea of outdoor activities. I've been thinking about this for a few days. May I ask you to reveal a little more about how an outdo...

There is very much said in detail about liberalism as a system that optimally balances societal interests in motion. I also want to draw attention to ...
September 14, 2025 at 20:00
A very interesting topic. I would also add numerologists, astrologers, tarot readers and other palmists who have become popular recently to the group ...
September 12, 2025 at 07:09
Of course, we have significantly deviated from the main topic of the topic. But this did not make the discussion less interesting. Your position only ...

And I believe that a society that strives for constant liberation from anything restrictive and oppressive is liberated to the point of freedom from b...

Okay. Let's assume that this is true. Then what is objectivity in ethics? Does objective ethics exist?
September 10, 2025 at 17:21
In my opinion, your judgments are very accurate in that liberalism does not appear out of nowhere, like a miracle that suddenly leads society to prosp...
September 10, 2025 at 09:25
I wonder if someone who doesn't exist at all can question his own existence or non-existence?
September 10, 2025 at 06:30
Your questions are good and involuntarily lead to the idea that "Objectivity" as such is essentially a subjective idea from the point of view of epist...
September 10, 2025 at 06:15
A very interesting question, despite its simplicity. Here is what Wikipedia says: If we proceed from these premises, we can assume that abortion: 1. O...
September 10, 2025 at 04:57
I think that 5-10 years ago I would have definitely and unequivocally answered this question - "Yes, I would be happy with objectivity!" Objectivity i...
September 10, 2025 at 03:28
For me, the key task of philosophy today is to protect the subject, its fragility and vulnerability in a world where objectivity reigns supreme. Let m...

Yes, I use the concept of "everything that is not X" to describe Y, and vice versa. You require clarification, and this is philosophically justified, ...

Unfortunately, I don't know why they wear them or why others change their gender. To be honest, I haven't given much thought to these questions. Perha...
September 05, 2025 at 12:02
Contemporaries often use the term "global south" in the context of alternative associations like BRICS or G77. Although my understanding of the concep...
September 05, 2025 at 11:16
If I understand correctly, you think we have misinterpreted the fact that liberalism won (which is what Fokuyama's main idea was built on)? Well, your...
September 05, 2025 at 09:31
I was not clear in my original post and have corrected myself above. I apologize. This is a very important remark. I would like to develop this idea a...

I was relying on Donald Trump receiving 312 electoral votes and Kamala Harris receiving 226 electoral votes out of a total of 538 electors. But your p...
September 05, 2025 at 06:53
These are very good philosophical questions. It used to be simpler: you had some set of ideas that you could develop throughout your life, moving alon...
September 05, 2025 at 05:29
I will try to explain what all this means, as descriptively as possible, without emotions and personal prejudices. It is no secret that the US uses so...
September 05, 2025 at 05:12
This is exactly what I wrote about: The ideologies of the USSR and the USA functioned like secular religions. They demanded faith, had their "prophets...
September 05, 2025 at 04:16
Well, the answer to this question is not obvious and it is not so easy to answer it. In this case, we are talking about the mindset of citizens. The i...
September 05, 2025 at 03:47
This is a very important binary opposition that is often overlooked. Many theorists have a certain conviction that first an ideology (a set of ideals)...
September 04, 2025 at 04:01
In my opinion, man is valuable in himself. Your argument is close to the conservative critique of democracy (for example Edmund Burke or even Plato in...
September 03, 2025 at 10:44
I do not dispute this statement, but I go further: Why is it necessary to think differently at all and the ability to do so is a good thing? Regarding...
September 03, 2025 at 10:30
That's what I'm asking: why did we decide that they need this choice? They built a society where choice is not needed, they were moving towards it. Wh...
September 03, 2025 at 09:53
I have seen this for myself. Moreover, I am sure that you cannot simply come to someone and call them a democrat or a liberal. As Le Bon asserts, ther...
September 03, 2025 at 09:46
I suggest you look at the situation from a slightly different angle. Not because I want to convince you of the correctness of something, but because, ...
September 03, 2025 at 09:09
I once witnessed a girl who was a guest asking a local girl why she wore a hijab, explaining that it infringed on her rights, her freedom to express h...
September 03, 2025 at 07:28
I think I've figured out where I was wrong here. Classical philosophy, like our everyday language, is built on the substance paradigm. In it, the worl...
September 03, 2025 at 07:07
I'm sorry, but I see contradictions here.
September 02, 2025 at 19:56
So your system is valuable to you, but just an empty template to others?
September 02, 2025 at 11:50
I hope the stone consciousness supporters will pass by and not look in here :lol: The balance offers a scale. This is Relativism again. Maybe this is ...
September 02, 2025 at 11:24
You write compassion for all sentient beings. Ok. Let's define who is sentient and who is not. Here on the forum there are many adherents of the idea ...

I don't like any of the approaches. That's how we live. In the deontological approach, you have to believe in something (but what about non-believers?...
September 02, 2025 at 10:05
Any act (active action) leads to the violation of the boundaries of another. This is inevitable: A single-celled organism eats something, which leads ...
September 02, 2025 at 08:51
Yes, your judgments look consistent. In all possible acts, the hammer can manifest itself in an unknowable way. Perhaps we will never know it in all i...
August 31, 2025 at 10:37
This way it is easier for me: the hammer appears in the act of meeting; and even more briefly: the thing is revealed in the Participation. You asked q...
August 31, 2025 at 06:04
Still, a hammer has a modus (potential, opportunity) to be a hammer, as does a stone, especially when attached to a stick, as does a microscope when u...
August 31, 2025 at 05:31
The hammer's hammerness is revealed in the act of nailing. I am saying that it was inherent in the hammer before the act (modus), and then became a pr...
August 30, 2025 at 23:48
Hammerness is just an example (and as I mentioned, perhaps with an inaccurate translation). The idea is that a hammer can be used both as a tool for h...
August 30, 2025 at 23:34
Not at all, just try to read it all again. I understand that it's a bit boring
August 30, 2025 at 23:17
The spirit of my idea is close to the Kantian model, but it adds new layers. Kant’s noumenon can be compared to what I call the modus, and his phenome...

I just discussed the same topic in another thread. I think you'll find it interesting, so I'll just copy my answer My fascination with the processual ...

Friday saw you and other participants in this thread ask me some interesting questions, but I wanted to take a short break before I answered. I'll get...
