It's philosophy, I always come in expecting to convince absolutely nobody. It's really hard to get reliable information about what the alt-right is an...

How would you rate the West in how racist and unfair of a society is relative to the rest of the world? There isn't an example of racism or racial pre...

So I keep talking about interpretative relevance in this thread and what I mean is that something with interpretative relevance is something we draw m...

If you made a list of problems for a race, I would rewrite the list as problems for citizens in America and then we would proceed to come up with solu...

We are without power and all I can do is aim to be the change I want to see in the world. Black people are just people with real problems, I hope thos...

Okay, why did you bring up that racial intolerance in South America and Africa are the fault of European colonialism? You're telling me that you had n...

I am not talking about the alt-right as synonymous to racism, I've laid out their views in this thread. I am scared now, if I was talking about racism...

Oh, I agree, the alt-rights views about the "white race" are absurd. It is clearly a reactionary movement to recent events portrayed on the media. In ...

I shouldn't have said "for good reason" but rather the reasons for why they think race is important are fairly self-evident when you consider the rela...

I have been asked this many times in the past, I heard about her and objectivism after forming most of my opinions on this and so I suppose my answer ...

Alt-right speakers I've listened to talk about the sanctity of white cultures, of white people having indispensable value, of white people banding tog...

You've hit me with white blindness, white privilege, white=normal and so on. These are all condescending, ideological assertions which make me really ...

White supremacists certainly don't agree but I don't see the point in arguing with you. What you're saying has actually nothing to do with the topic N...

Your post isn't exactly on topic but that we celebrate individuals means we celebrate whiteness? Are you okay? Einstein wasn't even white, he was a Je...

Oh yeah? So what is OP guilty of? Who are the vulnerable people and who are the privileged people?

Sure, the "vulnerable people" and the "privileged" people have nothing to do with ethnicity. To say this while supporting someone who absolutely was b...

His post is a criticism of a political movement, how in your mind is that an unstable foundation? My interpretation is that you're far more of a racia...

OP clearly framed the context of how the left prioritises the lived experience of particular groups as a political agenda, he explained his interest i...

The real problem with this way of thinking is that regardless of how generously we should accept the validity of lived experience, the idea forces us ...

We need to sit philosophy down and get his approval, the question is how can we convince him?

What constitutes "proof of an empirical claim" is an epistemological position based on interpretation. It's not nonsense, it's just subjective. It is ...

The notion that atheists don't believe in things which they have no proof of is true of only a portion of atheists. While some atheists believe that a...

There are many reasons for an atheist to be an atheist, many of them are not based on empiricism. There are many reasons for a believer to be religiou...

Who's blind here? So many privileges exist, what's your solution? Why do you think the only privileges which people harp on about are group identities...

I am referring to expertise where it is possible to show results with your expertise. A political pundit or historian or a philosopher, might struggle...

From the social constructionist perspective, every social problem is the result of a social cause and society can be held accountable for every diffic...

I agree this problem happens all the time, most of the conversations I have with you, in fact, you tell me I'm an idealist even though I argue/explain...

I will do what I can but that isn't much and I'm okay with that.

Yes, I feel that putting racism aside, indiscriminately treating all cultures as equally valuable is one of the most disgusting ideas around. It makes...

What happens after life is inconsequential to what happens within life. A lack of an afterlife is as meaningful as a lack of prelife existence.

All of these problems for my descendants... I wish them luck, I don't care if they blame me, I've given up.

Life has no objective meaning. What is the meaning of life having no meaning? The answer is clearly subjective. If someone decided to commit suicide b...

If a thousand people see something and tell you about it, you must interpret whether a thousand people seeing the same thing means it happened or not....

I think that racism is a subgroup of a type of thinking which makes assumptions about people that are not only unsubstantiated in any acceptable way b...

If you're not racially motivated then racial differences shouldn't matter. I don't like it when people discriminate to draw conclusions which are enti...

The thing is that what you're saying mostly makes sense only from a racially concerned perspective. Having the same skin colour as me doesn't make you...

Ethnicity is different because it's not a choice and it doesn't even mean anything. I am not trying to remove all prejudice, I am just asking whether ...

I don't remember Fooloso as being a conspiracy theorist, he had appeared to me to be just saying that it existed on both sides when I previously read ...

Fooloso's post is about how political correctness occurs on both sides, your response was that the modern extreme left is benign. You have no idea wha...

I'm talking about the modern extreme left, I never said that you said the extreme left was always harmless but pretty much the exact opposite. What's ...

I got no idea what that comment is supposed to mean. Nobody is an advocate of political correctness and if you wanted a particular type of example you...

If such a thing was your intent it was well veiled... I sadly don't think enough see your views as absurd and that encourages me to think you were ser...

Actually, I'll also point out that's an absurd characterisation of the extreme right as well. I will make a point to discard what you say in the futur...

I hope you don't expect too much from me, I agree that you'll hear more about political correctness being bad than actual political correctness. Nobod...

There's all kinds of different "white" cultures which aren't racial, people who like country music for example. It would just mean that, for example, ...

Political correctness is both an ideological invention and a way of avoiding fights. I think political correctness as an ideological invention is most...

Well, that is certainly true but I do not feel that people who openly think and speak in racial terms receive the condemnation they should and treatin...

There's a difference between being allowed to talk about differences and highlighting them. I am not saying the word racism should be removed from the...

You've made a lot of good points Robson. I can see that if you see continuity between what you think you would do in a situation and what someone else...

This post was about extent for novelty in interpretative structures and challenging alternative ideas about how they explain the existence of undesira...
