Why don’t you actually try and address @"Harry Hindu"’s post.

So either this is true of Trump and Baden, or it’s not true of Trump and Baden? Which one?

That’s not what I meant. My question was are you asking me personally what is behind this will to absolute epistemological certainty, or were you refe...

There are no negative consequences I’m trying to avoid. I was interested if, in your theory, there really was a place or system for people who didn’t ...

Well you can’t answer it because you don’t know. Some random post on Parler. The usual “rambling and raving”. I mean really, is this the sort of refer...

Well what are you meaning when you say “a tiny number”, it’s a reasonable question. And you’ve referred to my argument, which as far as I can see is t...

Well, enough of these pleasantries.

No need. You’d run.

They’d smell your fear from down the street.

Nazi is getting a bit tired. You’re going to have to find something new.

20,000,000. You’re a joke. I bet you can’t wait to taste the blood yourself.

Actually it’s 74,222,958 votes, or 46.8 percent of the votes cast. 74, 222, 958 wannabe mass murderers? You may as well surrender now.

Did you read the quote from Persson in my post? Is this sociological or addressed to me?

So you’re just throwing all these people into the same pot. Where do you draw the line, or is it all Republicans, all Conservatives?

The fuck they do. What do you call “tiny”? What exactly is my argument?

Who said that? What could that possibly mean?

They’re not going to succeed and they know it. It’s all virtual signalling.

So they call themselves “wannabe mass murderers”? It’s whose alleged goal, whatever that is?

I think you need to calm down. There’s almost a sense of pleasure in all this sky falling in stuff. From protestors to terrorists to mass murderers.

So, to paraphrase, philosophy is good for those who are born without the talents of the wise and realise this. They can minimise this condition in lif...

For or against?

Do you understand why the electoral college was established?

So no enforceable contracts on paying rent for leasing a place. Consequently there would squatters, which defeats the purpose of owning and renting pr...

Nor am I suggesting that. What I meant was that if it does not come to us naturally then we would need instruction. And if we did not get instruction ...

“ Far from establishing a rational consensus about what is morally right, and about what the ground and meaning of this rightness is, moral philosophe...

So in this utopian world no one would be allowed to rent because there would be nothing to rent.

Frege was an anti-Semite. Jews aren’t that alien to Europeans. Edit: Frege, “ Hmmm, what is meaning? Get that Jew out of this building!”

Not hanging around are they?

“Hume and Kant were racists,” I’m not asking anyone to act in the way I think they should. It just seems to me that anyone who applied an intellect of...

That’s a pretty bold claim. And “stop paying”? How does that work? I didn’t want to own a home for many years. That sort of commitment just didn’t app...

I’m not quite sure what you mean. You seem to be saying, for sample, that Aristotle’s thoughts regarding women was the result of his intellect. But it...

On the surface that seems like a wonderful thing. But what is the benefit? If we can’t use philosophy to hone in on something, slowly reducing it to t...

That’s an interesting take on things. We’re still babies on the earth. So philosophy is still very rudimentary. And taking into account our recent app...

I haven’t started this OP to prove anything but to follow a vague thought I had, which may be seen as the hat representing philosophy. Your post sugge...

I understand where you’re coming from in terms of your posts about capitalism, but not everyone wants to own a property, and there are many reasons fo...

First of all there’s no need to apologise. And though I began the OP I’m not the moderator of it. And even if I was I wouldn’t silence you because of ...

Of course. So I don’t see why you feel you can make judgements about my mental state.

How old are you @"Jack Cummins"?

No, I’m not saying that at all. (BTW I’m aware of China reaping the rewards of globalisation. I just think their success is interesting to look at.) I...

Unbelievable hubris.

Okay. The period of the video and the video itself is about globalism. Globalism may have pulled some people out of poverty, which wouldn’t have been ...

Yes, but that’s not how it’s used, Michael. Re. White privilege.

So you think it’s lack of reason that’s behind the whole violent, tangled up, troubled world? Just keep piling on more reason, eventually it’ll work. ...

quote="Kenosha Kid;487732"]You're obviously not going to defend the point, I give up. What point? Make it clear and I’ll address it. Is this it?

Well stop trying to read “ the subtle underlying message” because there isn’t one. Just because we like philosophy and just because some people have t...

So you don’t think it’s true that the money the government spends on public programs comes from taxation?

That is not the subject of the post.

And so it goes.

This isn’t in my post. It’s not even the subject. This is: “Which makes me wonder if it’s possible that philosophy has nothing to do with life or how ...

Sorry, a bit of confusion there. I mean globalism has destroyed so much. It’s not the great success story overall, i.e. American jobs, sweat shops, et...
