Well, bye bye forum!

Yes, I’m not really against change, I just noted if there’s a possibility to customize for a cleaner look, that would be nice. Clean minimalism is tim...

I don't want to be too much of a negative voice, but I find the new forum a bit cluttered and I miss the clean appearance and design of this old one. ...

Isn't it just the basic nature of the hard problem of consciousness at its core? You are fundamentally detached from experiencing my true self. For th...

This is what hypericin essentially brought up and I answered to earlier in that post. What I constitute as true self in this discussion is essentially...

Yes, all social interactions mainly display a projection of a true self that becomes distorted by the means of communication. But I think we evolution...

That would be scary; a big floating text post hovering abstractly in the sofa. But, it’s exactly that, the interpretation of text will always skew an ...

There’s some philosophy in there about the nature of identity. Something akin to Hans-Georg Moeller’s philosophies of profile identities. How much ”yo...

What is the punishment for such crimes? What does the law say about such acts?

He's an accelerationist of the fundamental problems with the US. In that sense there's something good that might come out of all of this, because inst...

The only power that the US has had is that it has always functioned as a societal manifestation of trade and the market. It's been a hub for business,...

Obvious racist is obvious. As I've been saying before, I don't think the problem is Trump, just like the problem isn't the racists. It's the people wh...

Calling things “state-run” is giving too much credit to the organizational level of how any of this operated and fundamentally… why? It seems more tha...

Isn’t all really a larger interconnected web of trade and ownership over companies established in many nations around the globe? While some nations ha...

Well, technically playing the market like that is textbook market manipulation at the highest level. It’s obvious he’s been doing it, he even said out...

Unfortunately, Gavin isn’t enough. The rot is deep, and it requires a rebirth of what it means to be the United States. The good people in the US are ...

This is why people call it christo-nationalist death cult. Basically, there’s no difference between Islamic fundamentalists in Middle East and Christi...

I guess kicking off the tail lights warrants being executed by two agents firing multiple shots… and civil unrest due to what had already happened is ...

…and the system that enables such a king to be elected.

This is at the core of the problems with US politics. It's built on a system in which the power that can be abused is also the power who decides who's...

But the democrats aren't doing well either. They're so out of touch with reality they can't even muster much opposition against what is happening now....

What was the cause for arrest? It was a legal carry, don’t you understand US laws? So what are you saying then? What did he do wrong? So far you’ve am...

Stop bullshitting, what did he do wrong? You said “play stupid games” about him, so what games did he play to warrant being shot do death? Why can’t y...

What strawman? You defend the actions of the ICE agents by pointing out that the victim did something wrong, i.e he committed some crime to warrant be...

He had a legal carry that he didn’t even draw or have his hands on. Just stop. The evidence is clear here and you’re just grasping at straws to defend...

Arrest for what? What's the crime here? Please elaborate because you are downplaying this event. I don't understand how you think you're not doing tha...

No, he did not, he carried legally, didn't draw his gun. He was filming them, legally, they had no right to beat him down, and they removed his legall...

I am not, I'm just generally opposed to obvious fascism. Especially when it starts to threaten our neighbors and us with supposed military action. The...

So the latest killing was a straight up execution of a man they pinned down. Video really looks like the kind of violence in war zones. So now, there’...

He never had a mind. He's a mad king and has always been. The only reason we've not seen this is because he had adults around him who slapped him if h...

You argue like both laws and ethics overall was something that everyone just decided on overnight. Morality and laws grows out of society over time. M...

Laws are formed out of the morals of the people. Laws are just the most extreme form of the consensus of morals. And if laws are based on morals that ...

Though, morality changes and shifts with time. It is not a decision made by a majority that “now we think like this”, but rather a defining set of val...

I tried to use an overly ironic twist to it all. Because I think the biggest travesty isn’t that a monster is a monster… it’s that so many people in o...

Sounds like the US is only Trump… maybe the rest are just slaves in his empire then. Apethetic or by will, they salute to him, and every single citize...

I wish everything I’ve ever hold in my hand would automatically become my possession. Just imagine how successful one would become. I could just grab ...

But that is not true. The inventions and engineering done in scientific projects are often created to solve a problem with that scientific research. Y...

Yet, most inventions people use today have come out of large scientific projects as the engineering required spawned much of the technology we use tod...

Science? The main purpose of the mission to go to the moon is primarily for scientific reasons and to establish a scientific base of operations in the...

:up: The difference between advocating and analysis is often obscured by those who use "freedom of speech" as a tool to attempt bringing in a trojan h...

But I’m more interested in how the republicans will deal with him. If they don’t, in any way, then the republican party is dead by becoming a conserva...

Then others can follow his lead and claim they don’t need to abide with international law to deal with him. But it seems no one has the balls to do an...

I really hope Danish and allied military gets to Greenland and defend against such a thing. Attacking Greenland in a way that leads to combat against ...

Yeah, seems plausible.., I’m constantly reminded that I give Trump and his idiots too much intellectual credit for decisions, when in reality most of ...

Maybe because most people think that the problems with an authoritarian regime is only the leader. That's only true in authoritarian nations in which ...

I don’t really speak of the opposition, but everyone who sees him for what he is. This isn’t really about political sides, it’s an about normal people...

The big irony would be if the Swedish sub that took out a US carrier during Baltic exercises… in the end took it down for real during an invasion. Wit...

I really hope that Denmark invokes article 5 if they try to annex Greenland. And seriously push back against the US with military force. It would caus...

Here’s my take on the AI stuff… Good to have: 1 2 9 (especially if it can also be recommendations when reading a thread as to find related discussions...

Hate is the reaction of our narratively constructed world view having an immune system, rejection towards that which threaten it. Some of it is logica...
