On the other side of the fence Maw, there was this video I listened to awhile ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NEvuQWR3oo It explains how the lef...

I didn't whine to anyone, I just clicked flag on your post. And I didn't flag you because you disagree with me (or you "exposed" my baseless criticism...
February 19, 2018 at 19:29
Well, I really think that the left should abandon this form of identity politics. On the one hand, for ethical reasons: it simply is unethical because...
February 19, 2018 at 19:28
What about Christianophobic, which most Western atheists and leftists are? No doubt that there are atheist intellectuals out there, but there aren't t...
February 19, 2018 at 19:20
Okay, I read sections I and II of the article. Seems to me to be entirely delusional - it is like I am reading actual fantasy. I had not been acquaint...
February 19, 2018 at 19:07
Thanks, I will look into it!
February 19, 2018 at 18:41
Just so you know, I reported your post which, in my honest opinion, ought to be deleted. First of all, I never swore at you or was disrespectful, and ...
February 19, 2018 at 18:34
Thanks.

@"Baden" @"Hanover" Can we have the above comment moved to a different thread please, and I will reply there? Thanks!

I haven't listened to the thing, but I'm not tempted to after you've presented it as "explaining the place of Trump" when this place is associated wit...
February 19, 2018 at 17:14
A program claiming to explain the place of Trump titled "The Roots of White Supremacy" is propaganda, and ought not to be taken seriously. After losin...
February 19, 2018 at 16:16
For example, given the transcendental aesthetic this is wrong. Those "intelligible objects" are given at minimum mediately, through the pure intuition...

Not necessarily, but he's the first Republican to have adopted the right attitude when fighting the Democrats, and not give in to their presumptions, ...
February 19, 2018 at 14:07
You should open a new thread about this, it would be interesting to discuss. A direct confrontation between Kant and Aristotle/Plato/Aquinas is never ...
February 19, 2018 at 14:01
I mean the issue is that the other Republican candidates, prior to Trump, were pretty much fighting the battle on Democrat ideological battleground, a...
February 19, 2018 at 12:50
I think that's the other way around - not bound by time, and therefore not subject to deterministic laws which can only apply within time. But free wi...
February 19, 2018 at 11:01
For sure, but if I look at the past 20 years or so I haven't seen any Republicans do that pretty much. Bush didn't. McCain didn't. Romney didn't. Etc.
February 19, 2018 at 10:59
The good thing about Trump, as opposed to many other Republicans, is that he's not afraid to be conflictual with Democrats when he must. For example, ...
February 19, 2018 at 10:56
Trump to win in 2020 again!
February 19, 2018 at 09:58
Ehmmm... I can't. Once, when I was an even tinier hamster, in school, we each had to sing a song in front of the class (with the song also playing in ...
February 19, 2018 at 09:56
We never know ourselves as we are. We know THAT we are, but not WHAT we are. The access we have to our own subjectivity is also given mediately, throu...
February 19, 2018 at 09:49
I get what TimeLine is trying to get at, but she's still wrong that we can have access to the noumenon. Contrary to the Cartesian version, in Kant, th...

Exterminator @"Baden" had a hard time controlling me before, and back then I had access to less resources. Ever since the gods from Plush provided me ...

Yah, I am protected by a shell called cuteness :fire: :strong: :grimace:

This is you TimeLine: :monkey:

February 19, 2018 at 09:03
How does it get destroyed by use? :eyes:
February 19, 2018 at 09:02
Well, it is not only my definition it is also Kant's definition of the empirically real. Certainly, Kant would never have thought that physics, or wha...
February 18, 2018 at 22:11
I don't object to that, but please don't use a word with heavy connotations when you want to put forward this sort of idea, because then you'll be mis...
February 18, 2018 at 22:04
We generally ask both questions - if you imagine that we must treat each and everything in the world by solely asking what we can do for them is (some...

:rofl:
February 18, 2018 at 21:12
Hmm, I see. Then you're more likely going to enjoy literature atm I think, since the Critique (and the Prolegomena pretty much) go step by step, discu...
February 18, 2018 at 21:11
Careful what you watch man, seems like you're using the internet to look at the wrong stuff there :naughty:
February 18, 2018 at 21:07
My comment was more tongue-in-cheek with reference to this thread: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/2871/what-would-kant-have-made-of-non-euc...
February 18, 2018 at 21:06
You're talking about the dichotomy of thing in itself and appearance and have no clue what that even means. Great. I mentioned that your metaphysics i...
February 18, 2018 at 20:09
???? Yes, that is in a place where I quote your wrong use of thing in itself.
February 18, 2018 at 20:09
Where did I pull it out when you are the first to have mentioned it in this thread? :brow:
February 18, 2018 at 20:06
It's not about what you can accept. You can't just pull out a term out of Kant's philosophy and completely misunderstand it. The nature of the transce...
February 18, 2018 at 20:03
That is not the rose seeing me, but rather I seeing myself in the rose, through the way I choose to relate to it. The thing-in-itself is not accessibl...
February 18, 2018 at 19:44
What do you mean it doesn't mean the model is accurate? If that model makes certain predictions (such as light bending around massive objects) and we ...
February 18, 2018 at 19:28
I see Plush changed the emojis. This is a problem because the previous laughing icon becomes >:O How does that make any sense?! People will read old p...

Thanks.

Can anyone gain access to this article? https://www.degruyter.com/view/j/kant.1970.61.issue-1-4/kant.1970.61.1-4.5/kant.1970.61.1-4.5.xml
February 18, 2018 at 11:57
You should listen to the last few minutes of this for a more detailed explanation on the same matter that I was talking about above: https://youtu.be/...
February 18, 2018 at 11:46
So to be more clear, by reality I mean the empirically real, that which physics addresses and that which we encounter in experience, whether directly ...
February 18, 2018 at 11:13
A beautifully worded statement, but just because it's beautiful doesn't mean it's true. In what sense does the rose "see me"? I don't see how consumer...
February 18, 2018 at 11:11
Only if you take reality to be the noumenon. But if reality is the phenomenon, or the empirically real, then what you're saying here is false. Many pe...
