Moral relativism says that the "truth" about the consequence being deserved is subjective and objective morality says that the "truth" is an absolute ...

I am pretty sure OP is talking about moral relativism and objective morality. "There is no truth about what a person is, what he has done, and what he...
June 28, 2020 at 01:29
What is objective justification? What do you think OP is arguing for and against? @"Enai De A Lukal" You can answer too, what do you think OP is argui...
June 28, 2020 at 01:12
OP distinguished objective truth from subjective truth? Which is significant since creating your own truth is the heart of relativism.
June 28, 2020 at 01:00
All you did was make OP's post more ambiguous.
June 28, 2020 at 00:54
The person who misunderstood your post was Baden who is clearly leftwing, I called you a leftist because of past experiences.
June 27, 2020 at 15:01
Objective truth is just an epistemological position, it's a statement about your requirements for certainty or our collective requirements for certain...

The US has rather fucked views on democracy, the American dream is about the opportunity to succeed even if the majority don't. The US is barely a dem...

I don't care what some people say, they aren't spokespeople for their race, races can't even have spokespeople and even if they could I'd still say th...

I disagree with the idea that there is a "black culture" to begin with and I'd say the term is racist. The thing is that you don't know whether or not...
June 26, 2020 at 15:59
I'm well aware of your separate thread and fdrake is literally talking about a discussion we had in that thread. But yeah, you got me big time, totall...
June 26, 2020 at 12:51
I don't think I've talked that much about the rioters but I think I've been pretty consistent. I don't think that public opinion in the US is the prob...
June 26, 2020 at 12:33
Prejudicial? Please, spare me. You can't be honest with yourself and what this thread is. That's fine, I didn't expect to make an impact.
June 26, 2020 at 12:00
From page one, people have been condoning violence and you still have people condoning violence so has this thread ever not been talking about that? W...
June 26, 2020 at 11:50
Has it occurred to you yet that you're the most racist, classist, sexist, hateful poster on the forum? Nobody brings up race more, nobody brings up ge...
June 26, 2020 at 08:34
I hope you realise how extreme the people you're debating in this thread are. Baden and StreetlightX are batshit crazy leftists who say all kinds of s...
June 26, 2020 at 06:59
I think that at the heart of modern-day racism isn't views on genetics but essentially associating personality characteristics with races. I don't thi...

I think the idea behind the forum moderation is that we have basically some of the worst posters on the forum given moderator status. I feel quite con...
June 26, 2020 at 05:07
Maybe it's not circular but what I meant to say is that power is not only created by public opinion but the ability to sway public opinion must be def...
June 26, 2020 at 00:18
Sure morality is subjective but your argument is circular, the ability to influence public opinion is power and you say public opinion is influenced b...

Well, capitalism certainly didn't fuck the native Americans, colonialism did. I think you're all over the place and so is @"jamalrob" and it's common ...
June 23, 2020 at 21:40
How is capitalism responsible for colonialism or land ownership?
June 23, 2020 at 09:30
Death casts its shadow over life, life is a dream to be forgotten. The meaning of things isn't to be dictated or negotiated, the finality of death and...
June 22, 2020 at 21:03
The person you refer to is almost certainly a troll and if not then he's just an idiot. Most topics here pretty much anyone can throw their hat into t...

I took that into account and deleted a far harsher reprimand and edited into "get a grip". My kindness is great.
June 19, 2020 at 03:43
You ignored all the constructive responses and cried about the one you didn't like. I think you need to get a grip.
June 19, 2020 at 01:01
"Life is hard work" but that hard work isn't your job? What is your hard work? It is just kind of silly to say that death is not scarier than living, ...
June 18, 2020 at 22:21
You must really dislike your work if it's worse than being dead.
June 18, 2020 at 12:17
How do you deal with a migrant crisis then? How do you educate someone on how to handle that without your biases coming into play? The right-wing and ...
June 17, 2020 at 18:48
The goal of the education system is to both educate AND grade you.
June 17, 2020 at 16:42
I am the highest moral authority in the universe, your arguments and interpretations are nothing to me. If you were to die, what would really change? ...
June 17, 2020 at 14:57
The whole squad is here now, excellent.
June 16, 2020 at 07:27
You can't control how people look at you or what they care about, objectification is a bad term, it doesn't really draw a clear line about what's appr...
June 15, 2020 at 07:58
How do you decide the requirements for being a politician without being yourself political? You cannot create an impartial course on these topics. Bes...
June 14, 2020 at 13:01
You've proposed a 3-4 year degree split into several large topics, you have to be realistic about how deep they're getting into those topics. People f...
June 14, 2020 at 00:37
I don't think that the demagogues you're talking about would be changed by this course, I don't think that the already educated people who wanted to g...

Doctors don't just get an education, they have to pass exams that show their competency, then they need to do internships and then if they got past al...

Democracy isn't just orientated around the election day, you can demand for an elected government to start doing a better job on an issue and make it ...
June 13, 2020 at 17:48
Your suggestions don't seem practical to me. I prefer making voting mandatory because I think it leads towards more moderate leaders, radicals are lik...
June 13, 2020 at 15:57
I like what you're saying here but I don't think the world is ready to hear it. Maybe in another 100 years.
June 13, 2020 at 15:27
I'm not sure it's necessary to graduate from kindergarten to understand your abysmal one-liners. I'm sure they've heard some of the older kids use sim...
June 12, 2020 at 09:16
You're so funny, after just mocking me for saying "race has nothing to do with racial injustice", where'd you pluck that idea out from? And then misun...
June 12, 2020 at 09:04
I was highlighting your ridiculous, distracting remarks in a comment about ridiculous, distracting remarks. Your argument wasn't being addressed, I do...
June 12, 2020 at 08:50
I don't think the term "annoying" is going to be taken seriously as philosophy.
June 12, 2020 at 08:18
Yeah, I agree with all of your statements, not much else to say.
June 12, 2020 at 08:15
Err, that's not what I was paraphrasing. Nor do I have any idea what your meme is talking about, please don't tell me that's your understanding of my ...
June 12, 2020 at 08:09
I meant to paraphrase you, not give a thesis, if I've done you wrong then please feel free to clarify what you meant, doesn't matter much to me as the...
June 12, 2020 at 07:30
I even paraphrased you without making fun of your grammar, gotta give me props for that.
June 12, 2020 at 06:52
It's a necessary, modern approach and it's going to become increasingly important to focus on how the state protects free speech rather than how they ...
June 12, 2020 at 06:43
Lol, that's not a good example, it's an unreasonable comparison. Rejecting Nazism isn't a contentious issue, you can't compare it to the very many far...
