Oh I see. It’s not that he didn’t do it, it’s that he didn’t at the times you wanted him to. It’s not that he called out violence and bigotry on all s...

Clearly Trump pressured him, but it’s what act Trump pressured him to do that is the question. If you have no evidence or reasoning beyond proof by as...

It might work. But the utilitarian argument for government doesn’t cut it for me. Slave plantations worked. Some treated their slaves better than othe...

Paine believed Biden’s lie that Trump never denounced white supremacists and furthered that lie up until just recently. Instead of indignation of thos...

Here are the moments I could find that Trump “pressured” Raffensperger to do anything. Here he is pressuring Germany to say it if he finds it : Here h...

If I believe what I am writing I am not operating on bad faith. I try my best to explain my reasoning. I don’t try to deny the value of evidence. I tr...

Do you think I do not believe what I am writing? The point of exposing my beliefs here, rather than some echo chamber, is to have them exposed to crit...

Why should anyone want to debate about the most transformative figure in the history of the United States when we can talk about T Clark’s poetry?

If you like government so much, maybe you’d like Somalia better when they had one. It had all the regular stuff: totalitarianism, corruption, politica...

I’m curious to hear what definition of “threat” you are using to assure yourself that those are threats. It certainly doesn’t fall under any legal def...

Only if there was a threat.

It’s true. Crime pays. Taking people’s money can have its benefits.

Used to? That’s the second time I asked that question, right after answering yours. So you still do it. What have you received?

Oh no, his feelings. Poor guy.

How much have you payed for the Department of defense and have you gotten your money’s worth? I wager you have no clue what you’re paying for or where...

Yeah, “and we’ll find hundreds of thousands of signatures, if you let us do it”. Who is this we? It’s us, the Trump team The notion that Trump is pres...

How many of them checked the signatures as per the Trump team's request? Or shared the data? It's ok, you don't know the answer to that. Neither does ...

The office of the Secretary of State in Georgia.

The votes he’s speaking about are the votes people were going to make but couldn’t because someone already voted for them. It’s why he pressured them ...

If they shared the data and reports maybe none of this would have happened. But they didn’t.

For not looking at the fraud and sharing their reports and data with the concerned party? Yes.

There isn’t. Unions often have the power to discipline their members, whether by fine or the denial of union benefits. So crossing the picket-line may...

Trump and his lawyers were pressuring them to look at the fraud and to share their reports and data. The Big Lie™ is the criminalization of these effo...

Maybe if you weren’t paying for the salaries and benefits of union administration you could use that money to save for emergencies.

I would not pay for the Dept. of defense or the fire department given the chance. How much have you payed for either service and have you gotten your ...

Have you ever paid for something voluntarily, for instance for a product or service? We do it all the time.

It’s more of an attempt to say the vat represents the body, shedding what is necessarily a fundamental factor of mind and self in favor of an untenabl...

Obviously it is of more interest than the foot, and people spend a great deal on it, but should that be the case? I’m not so sure. For instance, the q...

You might be surprised but you don’t have to always pay for things with stolen money. Another crook.

I have no illusions. I don’t think any statist wants any sort of freedom, that much is clear, nor would I expect anyone to accept any ideology. At any...

No, I’m asking “Why would someone trust the DOJ and Georgia officials?” Not everyone is so enamoured with party as you guys. Trump especially. He’s be...

I don’t believe experience happens in the brain. When I shake someone’s hand I believe I experience the situation with my entire body, since the entir...

Anyone who facilitates the worst conspiracy theory in the history of the United States in an attempt to subvert the duly elected president should not ...

Why would someone trust the DOJ and Georgia officials? It does make a difference because everyone who has criticized that particular remark never stip...

Trump already has done so given the opportunity. There are currently 8 ongoing national emergencies stemming from Trump's administration. But there ar...

Actually, after a quick read of the transcript, I’m pretty sure that Trump was speaking of the illegal ballots of his opponents, that if he found them...

Yes. It’s not like he’s asking him to find illegal ballots.

They shouldn’t be.

I’m aware that many or even most would disagree. Liberalism may have had some brief inroads, like a 50 year presence in England, but it was all in opp...

That’s the biggest farce because in a republic one is allowed to believe an election was stolen and take steps to challenge it, especially after tradi...

That’s fair. I’m mostly addressing the hypothesis that one can somehow wire up a human being and go around the senses themselves and illicit a similar...

He could truthfully claim the things he sees are fabrications if he reaches out for the tree and discovers that there is no tree there, that it is som...

A misquote, a mischaracterization, a laughing emoji, and of course it is aimed only at those with whom you disagree, namely me. On message, for sure, ...

I've heard the stories of White Death and now I view you in a different light. But there is something to be said about reservists and a combat-trained...

But wouldn't he be referring directly to the light and the patterns, even if he mistook them for a real tree?

What's your role in your government? American institutions in particular do not have the greatest track record, to be fair. But it's true; the mistrus...

Here we do not get taxed for lottery, but the lottery corporations are all run by provincial governments, so they get all the revenue anyways. But rec...

I don't see how it is possible. Much of the sense organs and their sensual periphery point outward, and as such any direct manipulation would require ...

To be the same principle the body would in some way need to be silenced, or asleep, or unconscious, as in the movie Matrix. Of course, in these states...

Not only that, but the BiV argument removes the entire body, replacing it with "a vat of nutrients which keeps the brain alive" (Putnam, Brains in a V...
