If these people were guilty of something, then they might have deserved such treatment. If they weren’t guilty of any such thing, then they didn’t des...

We never stop perceiving the world. Gravity is a constant reminder. Biology never turns off. These worldly constants are always in our perceptual spac...

They’re throwing concussion grenades into the crowd of people indiscriminately and without warning. They’re shooting less-than-lethal rounds into peop...

The protesters were too stupid to run away from pepper spray and rubber bullets. Don’t forget, there was also the one that was too stupid to run away ...

We didn’t get to see any of this in the J6 inquiry, which used Hollywood producers to gin up a slick narrative, but with the release of the footage we...

Another anti-democratic legal theory tossed in the dust bin. But then the judge falters on basic 1st amendment jurisprudence, giving anti-democratic f...

I was not speaking about judges.

Biden fired them all. He went after Trump appointees and filled the positions with his loyalists.

New York judge lifts the gag order that barred Trump from maligning court staff in fraud trial https://apnews.com/article/trump-letitia-james-fraud-tr...

“They do sound like the sort of thing Trump would say. Therefore, racism is fine, I guess.” We’ll have to name this fallacy Badenism!

I was trying to illustrate how fallacious such comparisons are. You’re comparing rhetoric; it’s like saying they’re all fascists because they swear. I...

A fascist dictator campaigning on rooting out fascists? Pretty wild. Politicians use inflammatory metaphors and dysphemism. Trump’s rhetoric is closer...

You’re literally thinking like Hitler now.

Hitler claimed the jews were using the big lie to deceive Germans. Praxis claims Trump is using the Big Lie to deceive Americans.

Perhaps you can quote him and we can analyze his "echoing" of "fascist rhetoric", words that are plucked directly from the headlines that report on it...

On the one hand I'd implore you tell me in your own words what was wrong with Trump's speech, but on the other hand I don't need you to because I know...

Big Lie, capital letters, exactly as written by political operatives. Everything is decided for you. Your only duty (and ability) is to repeat it. You...

No. They saw a virtual candidate in Joe Biden, someone who didn’t leave his bunker and had abysmal attendance at his rallies, but got the most votes o...

Look how effectual everyone’s words are. They can convince no one but themselves.

The aspects of the body are the body, at least when I look. What distinguishes them beyond the words used to describe it?

As previously illustrated, community hasn’t faired so well to quell violence, or worse, has supported it. When communities come to head we call it war...

I guess you’d have no choice but to depend on others if you are unable to defend yourself. Sounds terrible, to me.

A fellow citizen might try to kill you though, so I should hope it would be easier. A gun is a great equalizer in that regard. How do you propose the ...

Wow.

They said some things…the total extent of your complaints.

So another nothing burger. Look at the lengths you go to fabricate a reality you know is not true.

Did he stay?

A lot of it has to do with history. Gun laws have been used to blindly suppress certain classes: black people, first peoples, Catholics, immigrants, a...

It’s obvious that more guns equals more gun deaths. I don’t think there is any point arguing against that. For the gun rights advocate, and to any rig...

I like the way you put that. I’m sold.

I thought that was a little jab at me. It was a good one, by the way. But I think my question still stands. How many contexts would be necessary to ap...

I played it longer and it follows the one sentence you’ve quote. “ You can’t do that, you can’t go after people. You know, when you’re president, and ...

I suppose we should wonder how fatal it is. Certainly he doesn’t mean one will die if the philosopher never lists the correct amount of contexts, or u...

The quote I gave is in the ensuing remarks, but suspiciously missing from your context.

The media was kind enough to quote him out of context, frame it, and you were silly enough to fall for it and defend it. Shameful.

“You can’t do that, you can’t go after people. You know, when you’re president, and you’ve done a good job and you’re popular, you don’t go after them...

And you think he’s going to do this in the 2028 election, even though he can’t and won’t run in 2028? Utter nonsense.

He’s literally not. All I have to do is look at the preceding context (which you suspiciously leave out) and see that you’re wrong. “They have done so...

But you thought he was saying it allows him to terminate the constitution, which is an absolute lie. False. He was explaining why it was wrong.

This is true. A fraud at that level allowed for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles of the constitution. That’s why it was wrong. ...

The Durham report was damning, and completely lost on those who followed blindly the false reporting around that time. The involvement of the Clinton ...

Jim is Jim. Jim acts. He’s not a set of anything. We tend to abstract Jim into states of Jim. We name the states we have abstracted, make of them a se...

I don’t see a problem. Jim remains the same throughout while what he performs does not.

You can tell what is and isn’t driven by straight propaganda by its constant repetition. Repetition makes true. It has been the hill upon which the an...

Yes. One can abstract out a specific action from another by considering it on its own as a state, by placing limits on its duration, naming it, and pr...

Thanks for making it more clear. I was just trying to picture it, the haphazard result of dividing what I believe is one entity into two. A “perceptio...

I would oppose any such view, personally.

I think these details are important because no one mentions these components of perception, as far as I know. Which extension do you mean?

It cannot be said that a nervous system can perceive because perception involves more than nervous systems. For instance, in humans, lungs, a heart, b...
