I just like tossing ideas out there and spend too much time on the internet to concentrate on my studies. I don't know. I just get bored. Like I said,...
A highly contentious, but charmingly optimistic statement. I have decided to leave this forum for the time being, and, so, don't think that I'll be ab...
I'm only attempting to give you an understanding of my general attitude towards the ostensibly hard-earned wealth of sociopathic academics. As an ethi...
"Therefore, whoever tells a lie, however well intentioned he might be, must answer for the consequences, however unforeseeable they were, and pay the ...
Well, thank you. I actually kind of posit that Existentialism was developed in parallel to Empiricism, and, so, don't think that you can chalk this al...
I don't know. Perhaps such a mathematical system would only include positive numbers? Like I said, I have yet to hash this all out. Anyways, I have le...
I was just typing as you replied. The Copernican Revolution that needs to occur within the Left is that of a change in mindset towards revolution. The...
And, here, I thought that I was just defending a point. Y'know it kind of reminds me of this story that I once heard about a man with a peculiar manne...
When you divide by zero, you can say that it is positive infinity. When you divide by positive or negative infinity, you can say that it is zero. That...
As, I am sure, this is both warranted and welcome, I will elaborate. The problem is not the wanton experimentation in writing, philosophy, or politica...
Jean Buadrillard once actually cited Ecclesiastes as stating that "the simulacrum is never that which conceals the truth—it is the truth which conceal...
Love is the only force in the world capable of inciting the experience of ekstasis long thought to be exclusive to divine revelation. Every form of fr...
Kant seemingly makes sense. It all makes sense if you believe in some sort of abstract transcendent ideal and in a quasi-eschatological "kingdom of en...
Responding to your question and not your post, yes, absolutely. Extreme, perhaps, isn't quite the right word, as the really are very few political ter...
Anything divided by infinity is equal to zero and anything divided by zero is infinite. I've been told that this isn't necessarily true in almost ever...
Well, now that you said all of that, I'm not sure what this has to do with Kant. To me, the supposed right to put yourself at risk does, to varying de...
Upon a second reading, it still seems to be about how the categorical imperative bars you from the freedom to ride motorcycles. I don't know. Whatever...
The inherent flaw in your reasoning. "But the edge is still Out there. Or maybe it's In. The association of motorcycles with LSD is no accident of pub...
I see it somewhat blankly. The cage is like Chekov's gun. Once the cage is built, it just finds a bird to live in it. It's about how authoritarian soc...
Gus, have you ever thought about giving the answer, "Neutral Evil", to the question as to what you Dungeons and Dragons alignment would be, but though...
I feel like Marx and Engels foresaw something in Stirner, which is the reason for their diatribes, absurd as they are. I'd still hold it against them;...
I had forgotten what I had learned in Civics class, and, so, meant to say that Kennedy proposed the Civil Rights Act. Johnson just signed it into law....
Truman is responsible for the Truman Doctrine, more or less the foundational basis for the Central Intelligence Agency arming, training, and funding N...
How can you say such a thing? I'm actually kind of a Communist, but still know that those ones and threes need to be swapped. By the "Cuban Missile Cr...
I'll just tell you not to learn anything about the history of Philosophy and to just get into Gilles Deleuze, but I'm not too sure that I would listen...
I am one of those "someone's". Our job is to collect the shopping carts from the corrals and bring them back to the store and not to collect them from...
I feel like you've been talking to our detractors too much. You can just read Concluding Unscientific Postscript or Either/Or if you want to get into ...
The World as Will and as Representation, you can read without any prerequisites, though it can be difficult to understand. Either/Or, you can read wit...
\ Well Marx and Engels did renounce dogmatic interpretations of their theories on a number of occasions, despite their long and proud history of isola...
No, I agree with that there is a lot more to life outside of Politics, specifically, the politics of Communist revolution, which, to go to the letter,...
I don't know. I was just longing for the ecstatic and feeling optimistic. While I do believe that you, in good faith, are perfectly capable of engagin...
Trump's new plan to start some sort of Patriot Party poses a significant problem, but, to try him for treason is absurd. The punishment for it is effe...
Oh, this goes on. It's kind of an aporia that people tend to assume that chauvinists make for good leaders and that the wealthy know what is best for ...
I don't know that I agree with this distinction between the seriously politically motivated and the general public. It's true that a situation as such...
I highly doubt that science proves that most human beings have an innate predisposition to follow authoritarian leaders, which begs that absurd conclu...
Oh, I greatly discount such claims as well. "Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, givi...
