So there are no other roads to take? It's either the authoritarian regime imprisoning or poisoning critics of the state, propaganda to the point of to...
Unlike you, I make an effort to understand my interlocutor instead of picking stuff out of context to make some smug response. I still don't understan...
And one of the moderators is one of the worst offenders of this thread's behavior. :shade: Outside of that, we've got reports that the planes that bro...
His mental issues were not due to his thinking. It could catalyst, probably due to social alienation, but that his philosophy drove him to it is just ...
Nietzsche would have been nothing without all that came before as well as all that came after who built upon his philosophy. The actual existence of h...
No philosopher exists in a vacuum. They all build upon the old, reshape and refine while laying the ground for future philosophers. Philosophy is esse...
Russia's propaganda-stated intentions of rescuing Ukrainians took a really big hit today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHpX6_B8ArE&ab_channel=BBCNew...
What is stupid are your kneejerk responses. I asked you for yes and no answers. I asked if there's enough evidence to draw a conclusion of a possible ...
Are you unable to do anything but kneejerk posts? 1. Is there enough evidence to conclude the possibility that Russia would have invaded Ukraine anywa...
Most seem to just focus on point 5 and the result in point 6. What about Russia provoking neighboring nations into wanting to join or joining Nato, in...
Except it was just part of my argument. As well as you totally not fucking understanding what I write as usual. If I point out a hole in the logic of ...
Can you read what I wrote? And then understand what I wrote? Fact: Nato is expanding. Fact: Russia doesn't like it. Fact (based on these experts): Nat...
I analyzed the possible obsession with Nato in terms of how debates and discussions has been going on for 30 years now. To the extent of leading to bi...
What are you even talking about now? If you mean that there's no point to analyze interlocutors as part of the analysis of global events you've missed...
Going back to my previous argument that because we haven't really had any superpower dictators since the soviet era ended, intellectuals have generall...
As long as Putin isn't hiding his wealth inside the oligarch's accounts, which some speculate he does. And when the war chest is empty, where does he ...
Agree with all this. It's what I've been saying many times in here. Everything we know from the inside of Russia, past its propaganda machine (like ex...
It's kind of natural that people are skeptical towards populations in nations that have consistently shown questionable national behavior, the same wa...
I tend to demand fewer fallacies and biases from the ones I debate against. More careful attention to how facts stick together with the premises and c...
Defending against an invasion is just as long as the invader isn't just in their invasion. An invasion that is just needs to have a just cause. A just...
Don't bother with him. I'm beginning to think there are people in here that are truly part of the Russian propaganda machine, apologists for Russia an...
Yeah, that video pretty much sums up most of it. The main part is that people genuinely seem to be unable to understand that reasons don't equal justi...
A usual response when someone doesn't understand simple fallacies. So what is your premise then? I asked for a premise in support of the statement you...
Yes, and it might be that they had the plan to invade, but it might be that the result of Ukraine will dictate whether they will do it or not. If Ukra...
By trade, I also mean how influential China has become world wide. They have a lot of influence in corporations around the globe that's about more tha...
I think China is too dependent on trade to easily just join up with Russia. China needs a variety of trade much more than Russia does. Russia could ba...
This dynamic is also breaking up in modern culture, hence we see the reaction of both women and men on the extreme ends aggressively enforcing against...
It's also interesting that you think it's about facts when your conclusion looks like this: I see no facts here. Nothing about the Nato expansion is i...
It's been a staple of Socialdemokraterna since the second world war and it's just become a mantra at this point. There's zero actual discussion within...
Yes, it's literally a joke that our government is still talking about neutrality as they do. Times have changed and we have to act with more dedicatio...
I'm still not talking about capitalism, that's what you brought up. I agree with you on the point of it destroying the planet, but that has little to ...
:rofl: So when I ask for that, for your initial conclusion, it doesn't apply? You do know that philosophy also requires logic, rational deduction and ...
Yet, Scandinavia's free market system is still capitalism. Your argument was that capitalism corrupts democracies, then it should corrupt Scandinavia ...
They don't want to live under the boot of Russia and Putin. They fight for their right to be free, they fight for their will to live in their country ...
And yet, it can work well in a society like in Scandinavia. I'm guessing that you only focus on the US now, but that's just one of many democracies. I...
Exactly. People treat everything as some capitalism vs , when almost everything boils down to, in any form of government and economic system, low or h...
You have had numerous times to provide support for the belief I asked you to support. Instead you spend post after post talking about how "obvious" yo...
So you have nothing as a support for what you say. You can't argue without fallacies. And you are unable to engage in a discussion through a more prop...
That's called a tu quoque fallacy. I asked you to provide some support for your belief so that the rest of your argument can be built upon it. But you...
How is this relevant to what I asked for? I asked for support in premises for your conclusion. My example of propaganda has to do with a possible coun...
Again, can you please provide more substance for your conclusion? Stop trying to sidestep things like you always do. I'm waiting for you to answer thi...
How is that explaining any valid premises for your conclusion? You conclude that: How do you know this? This would require you to first assume that an...
Biological laboratories do not mean bioweapon research. Biological laboratories exist in almost every country, acknowledge of its existence does not m...
This is so faulty on so many levels of fallacies that it becomes utter nonsense. It's like one of the most bullshit sentences of an argument I've ever...
No, you conclude it as facts, move it into a premise for another conclusion and there's your maelstrom of ill-conceived arguments. That's why it's suc...
Still not a bioweapon lab. You know, there are labs in every nation working to prevent stuff like the pandemic we just went through. There are high-le...
