Well that depends what you mean, but I suppose that would hold true on a macro-scale, though even in such a society there would be places where black ...

So if I am the cause of it, how am I not morally to blame for it if I could have stopped myself from being the cause of it for one? It's not the same ...

I think in today's world, especially on college campuses in the US, I can imagine it can go that way, precisely because so much of sexism is focused o...

Only if you have some absolute revulsion from wrong-doing. I have a revulsion from it, but not absolute.
August 18, 2017 at 22:32
Then in what sense am I to blame? I think I am absolutely to blame morally, if I wasn't negligent - a vice - the tragedy wouldn't have happened. Is th...
August 18, 2017 at 22:30
:s so let's see - if we're in a chemical laboratory, and due to my negligence I forget the gas on after I leave, and there is a big explosion later ki...
August 18, 2017 at 22:20
Because I think all four components are required to give a full moral account of the situation - an account that can be comprehensive of all situation...
August 18, 2017 at 22:07
Maybe you are right, if you look at it that way, it is a missed opportunity. I'm perhaps too often confrontational with such people, and in the end I ...
August 18, 2017 at 22:00
The action itself - murder - killing another human being - is wrong. Not based just on the intention of the agent, which in both cases is to kill a hu...

He did actually open a new account under the name of John Harris, so wouldn't say it's that impossible >:O - but that one is unfortunately also banned...

It's good to keep yourself clean of Sand :P
August 18, 2017 at 21:44
Ah, I see, you must have performed some exorcism on your own self :-O
August 18, 2017 at 21:44
I don't make a difference between the two of them. That's another reification right there in my opinion. It's the same underlying action, you're just ...
August 18, 2017 at 21:39
yet* :P >:O Thank you, those are very kind words for you to say! I have also found the discussions with you very interesting and insightful as well! :...

Okay so he wasn't running for President when he became a republican right? He wasn't in fact running for any office, correct? Amy Schumer? Pretty much...
August 18, 2017 at 21:06
We shouldn't now condemn the violence of groups like Antifa and BLM just because if we do the white nationalists will feel happy?! Why the hell should...
August 18, 2017 at 21:05
Unfortunately such replies seem to be quite common here many times. I agree.
August 18, 2017 at 20:58
Well, why does it matter what the white nationalists think? They are very deluded people if they think they can associate themselves with a man who ha...
August 18, 2017 at 20:57
I am not aware of the Nieto thing, do you have a link? As far as I know, he still claims that Mexico will ultimately pay for it. Yes, I am aware of th...
August 18, 2017 at 20:48
Why do you think that? In his last speech, Trump actually said, for example, that "the driver of the car was a disgrace to himself, his family and the...
August 18, 2017 at 20:34
Whatever his views happen to be. That's been a general trend with Trump. For example when the whole media was up in arms about his desire to build a w...
August 18, 2017 at 20:18
As I said, I am quite puzzled by all the outrage against Trump. I really haven't found Trump's speech to be as crazy and as bad as these people make i...
August 18, 2017 at 19:54
>:O Apart from the laughter points, the very fascinating thing psychologically, is why the hell is he so afraid the cops will KILL him? I mean he's no...
August 18, 2017 at 19:30
You want to purchase them? :D
August 18, 2017 at 19:28
I think the line of the left is that since sexism is used against women (or at least used to be used against women) more frequently than against men i...
August 18, 2017 at 19:19
:-O You should've threatened to put the cops on him. Then he may have turned from that big loud-mouthed dirty boy into a whimpering coward, like in th...
August 18, 2017 at 18:53
Excellent! X-)
August 18, 2017 at 18:43
Like these nuts? https://nuts.com/images/auto/801x534/assets/0efa260340dac6fe.jpg P.S. Hopefully this isn't a pornographic image for some people and a...
August 18, 2017 at 18:37
I don't understand how someone can be "silenced". It's an online forum! How do you "silence" someone? I suppose by banning them perhaps. Otherwise the...
August 18, 2017 at 18:36
>:O More legal proceeding will be the end of the American experiment in democracy, since people will very soon start losing faith in it. And this isn'...
August 18, 2017 at 18:33
:s What's this got to do with anything? The point is that the other side shouldn't irrationally block legislation that would be good for the country M...
August 18, 2017 at 16:38
Well, actually he does have quite a good point. The US is a failed democracy because each party tries to use entirely legal means (such as the courts)...
August 18, 2017 at 16:13
:-! You have developed quite an obsession with Kevin it seems

If I didn't have so many PMs to write and so much work to catch up with outside of here (+ find time to go to the gym), maybe I could give that a look...
August 18, 2017 at 12:42
>:O just kidding!
August 18, 2017 at 11:35
Okay, I will now have to be careful. Is a picture of Borat in a swimming suit considered pornographic? :s
August 18, 2017 at 11:26
To those people who are still insisting, some via PM that I have something personal against Mongrel, let me clarify one last time that I have no ill f...
August 18, 2017 at 11:11
My apologies Janus for the very delayed response. I do appreciate your comments and our discussions, so please don't take this as disrespect towards y...

It seems that some moderators are indeed wise...
August 17, 2017 at 22:22
So tell me unenlightened, if there is an extremist around who cannot bear to have conversation with those who disagrees with them, and actually - thro...

August 17, 2017 at 22:07
Well yeah, clearly from that member that told you to fuck off. That member is literarily quite deluded, and has proven to be someone who lives in thei...
August 17, 2017 at 21:54
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3CMsjY5c_Y I can sympathise with the trouble of the moderators. They have been put in an impossible situation. If the...
August 17, 2017 at 19:43
Yes I agree with this. And the fact that these leftist groups appeal to the existence of groups which are even worse than they are is no excuse for wh...
August 17, 2017 at 17:56
Thank you.
August 17, 2017 at 17:29
Ah okay... I wasn't even aware of this. I will look it up. Anyway, I'm going to have to prepare dinner now.
August 17, 2017 at 16:28
I do understand that, but I really feel they're so extreme in their reactions. It's true that in my opinion Trump should be more clear about the fact ...
August 17, 2017 at 16:27
If you're referring to condoning the violence against - say - Iraqi people at the hands of American soldiers, just because of 9/11, then I agree with ...
