I didn't say it was necessarily bad. Clearly it's been a big win for the Democratic party. Every coup is bad for the coup-ee and good for the coup-er....

:100:

Not hurriedly, sometimes it takes centuries. As a historically contingent activity of humans, math evolves. We extend our concepts to incorporate new ...

I yearn for the American people to punish the Democratic party for the fraud they've perpetrated on us these past four years. It's not going to happen...

"This" meaning the post I wrote? Or the Newsweek article I quoted? Unclear whether I need to defend what I think, or what Newsweek thinks. Suffice to ...

Ok I see. Well I'll respond to the PM when I get a chance. We're having an interesting discussion, but I prefer for such discussions to be in the publ...

It's good. I needed to rationally state my position, not just get upset. It's frustrating because J6 is a massive article of faith on the left. And I ...

I take your point that Hersh, for all his achievements, has had some misfires over the years. He's certainly no spring chicken. He broke the story of ...

Right you are. I drank my own Kool-Aid. J6 is an emotional topic for me. Thank you for giving me a chance to gather some of my thoughts. You don't nee...

Ban academic paywalls. That's a cause I can get behind. Especially when it's taxpayer-funded research. But even the so-called privately funded univers...

Spare me. In 2020 leftist BLM/Antifa mobs killed 20 people and caused $2B with a 'B' in documented insurance claims. All you're doing is throwing out ...

Not necessary, I willingly took the bait. Over on the political forums in the Lounge, someone actually suggested to me with a straight face that Biden...

LOL. Like Caesar decided not to be head of the Roman empire. Where do you get such nonsense? Seriously, you actually believe what you wrote? That Bide...

Sorry I mentioned it. Oh please. He left as gracefully as Caesar did. The Dem hysteria that started on election night of 2016 has been extremely damag...

Even ultra-lib Joy Reid called it a coup. Biden was not removed by lawful means. If there were a crisis, there's nobody making executive decisions. Th...

Never so obvious before. Propping up Biden for four years then swapping him out in a humiliating operation, if someone doesn't want to call it a coup....

Ok! Haha very humble of you.

They won't 25A him. They've just humiliated him, forced him to make a hostage video, and left a huge power vacuum at the top of the government. This c...

As I said, if you saw this play out in a corrupt foreign country, you'd call it a coup. Not conspiratorial? Perhaps you should look up the word. They ...

And then they call Biden a great patriot for gracefully stepping aside for the good of his country. Just like Caesar did.

I watched the Biden speech tonight. I've seen more believable hostage videos. As I understand it, he is not quitting the race for any particular reaso...

Mr Bee, I saw your post last night. As I processed my news stream today it was "top of mind," as KJP once said. I found six items to help people proce...

A lot more are calling it a coup than are claiming the earth is flat. What would you call it? The Dems lied for three years to hid Biden's infirmity, ...

Ok glad we got to the bottom of that! Ok. Fictionalism is a useful point of view. Avoids having to defend what math "means." Oh you baited me about th...

He's the old one now. Kam at least has put some youth into our political process. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out.

Thank you. "Today I learned."

Whatevs.

Help me out. The jazz player?

I don't see why not. If a bookmaker had to set odds on the proposition, he'd assign it as 1. Anyway let's agree to disagree. Nobody. That's why it's g...

I said no such thing. If the freeway didn't exist, I'd take the old dirt road that people used before they built the freeway. I'd still get where I'm ...

After reading all that i was a little unclear on pre- versus regular old determinism. The text passages are the kind of philosophical writing that alw...

Not entirely sure I caught that. Was I right or wrong to analogize the media to a pack of rabid jackals? I'm always struck by the way the narrative tu...

Choke me in the shallow water before I get too deep. -- Edie Brickell. I have some darned fine conversations with myself. You are free to do so, of co...

Biden made that same point the other day, noting that the same kind of Dem chicanery that they're using on him is how they ended up losing to Trump in...

Some are calling it a coup. Certainly if you saw this plot play out in some corrupt foreign country you'd call it what it is. Biden hasn't been seen i...

Yes it's funny that the other day Biden himself said, "That's how we got Trump in 2016," meaning the Dems letting the party insiders override the will...

Well ... letting the matter drop would be for the best. But ... can you explain to me how today being Sunday, the probability that yesterday was Satur...

Better deep than shallow. I discussed this with myself and determined I'm right. I prefer not to argue the point, if you'll forgive me. I'll read and ...

Joe has to resign the presidency, the sooner the better. There's are negative and positive reasons. The negatives are that as long as he's President, ...

If you fix an interpretation and change the axioms, you'll get different truths. This is obvious. Not worth arguing about.

You should go back to what I originally said that you objected to, and you will see that I am right.

If your statement S is an axiom, you will understand my point.

Hmm. You could fix the interpretation and change the axioms to show that truth depends on the axioms plus the interpretation. That's not the usual way...

We should go back to agreeing to disagree, since your understanding of probability 1 is contrary to, well, everyone else's. Is this a standard philoso...

Virtually every professional mathematician lives in the world created by this movement. Nobody notices because it's like fish not noticing water. It's...

Glad that helped. That's interesting. Which page views? I think you've mentioned in the past that you look at papers written or something like that.

That makes perfect sense. I understand you now! Yes I was thinking of the empty set. Perhaps what you're describing I might call, "invalid," or an err...

You managed to entirely misunderstand my answer. Since judgement is apparently a Britishism, I accept that and have no trouble with it; no more than I...

Ok I'll do my best. When we manipulate symbols, we use syntax rules. There's no "meaning" associated with the symbols except the meaning in our minds....

Oh that's interesting. Is judgement with the extra 'e' a Britishism? I was not aware of that. Ok.
