I would argue that “injustice” suffers the same problem as its antonym. It has no referent, but we know it when we see it. Better to reason about stat...

I don’t expect you to get on board. I could care less what others believe. I’m just saying compassion isn’t a feminine trait, but a characteristic of ...

Compassion is a characteristic of men and women, and therefor not a feminine trait. End of story. I’m talking about biological characteristics and tra...

Dictionaries record usage, “trends” in definition, and “feminine” means “having the qualities or appearance considered to be typical of women; connect...

I always understood that something is feminine if it is characteristic of, or appropriate or unique to women.

If not a man, then what? Some other sex?

What is feminine supposed to describe, if not females? What other objects in the world ought to be described as “feminine”?

Is your sex contrived?

I walk around and see the sexes, the biology, often despite the performative and contrived. I imagine a feminist would know what a woman is.

I’m just saying that’s not what I was talking about. By “acting like a woman”, I thought you meant he was effeminate in his mannerisms and dress, not ...

Perhaps it will stick. Perhaps it won’t. Indipendent? It makes you wonder who comes up with these. Anyone can alter his mannerisms, behavior, and dres...

I would tend to think of them as acting feminine rather than being feminine. There is nothing feminine about chest hair or an Adam’s apple, for exampl...

Take the words, for all I care. One can read the distinction between gender and sex until the cows come home, but one cannot really see it outside of ...

There is some interesting confusion about the distinctions between sex and gender, between states of affairs and states of fantasy. In the mouths of t...

It looks like the commies are having a tough go of it. “As well as the footage from Zhangjiang, other videos have captured “big whites” wrestling peop...

It doesn’t matter to me if you feel restricted by my definition, or that you believe my rhetoric can somehow exclude your reflection. These are your p...

“Case in point” is an illustrative example of your assertion “Stipulating a criteria, one way or the other, is a political act”. But you were unwillin...

It cannot be done for the same reason disembodied brains show no mental states. Mental states are a one-to-one ratio to states of the body as a functi...

It’s complicated because such pronouns refer to women, not men.

We’ve seen where that has gotten us, though. Men are being allowed to compete in women’s sports, or to disrobe in their change rooms, for example. We’...

I say that because you said that you know they are not a woman, but are willing to treat them and speak about them as if they were. Have I read it wro...

I’m not sure it is ethical to lie for my boss, or any other person above me in any hierarchy.

I didn’t say you said anything about sacrificing truth, but you are willing to knowingly utter a falsity to preserve someone’s feelings, with little c...

To what extent are you down with sacrificing truth to protect someone’s feelings? I might convey in manner and dress that I am a king, but would you r...

His was a strange criticism and a political act at the same time. It’s no wonder truth suffers around issues such as these.

A poor argument.

A woman is an adult female of the human species. Any man can try to look like one but the biology ultimately betrays the act.

I think the word “absurd” is better applied to your conception of existence and not so much to existing things. This is why we ought to rid ourselves ...

Another Trump-era hoax collapses. Do you remember falling for this one? Gretchen Whitmer: Michigan governor kidnap plot case collapses What’s next?

I’ve seen a lot of anti-Russian atrocity propaganda that I feel it important to show the other side of it. I am not in any position to negotiate cease...

“ A video posted online on Monday and verified by The New York Times appears to show a group of Ukrainian soldiers killing captured Russian troops out...

More Biden family corruption. It doesn’t seem to end. Imagine if this was another president and his family. We’d never hear the end of it. https://the...

The rouble is back to what it was before the invasion. Remember when Biden bragged and called it the “rubble”? Hilarious.

Maybe it’s the other way about. You’re doing exactly what I caused you to do.

What is silly is the amount of time you’ve spent to say very little. I have to wonder why you tried to refute my initial point.

Yes, I comprehend it. But you don’t cause me to comprehend it, is my point.

I think you’re trying to insert a chain between two disparate events in order to say one caused the other. Sorry, I don’t see it, or you haven’t made ...

My point is that neurons cause particular neural activity. The body performs the actions, therefor it causes them.

Trump conspiracy theories in a Joe Biden thread. I guess it was doomed to happen.

Every fishing expedition, with the force of the American justice system, has found very little in the case of Trump. Even Stormy Daniels lost her case...

The tendency towards collectivism is too great, towards individualism too rare, that there has never been a society that values the individual. Man se...

“Intentional pattern”…nifty phrase, but “patterns” is a weird way to describe mechanical sounds, and “intentional” would apply to any sound we make on...

Myriad investigations into Trump—lawsuits, committees, district attorneys peeking through his life. Nothing like that against Biden.

https://archive.ph/TTGgz More Biden family grift and corruption. Of course we knew about this for years, but we suppressed it for political purposes.

I’ll pass on the YouTube video. Cells in the inner ear transform vibration into electrical signals. No other thing or force is causing this to happen ...

The effects of spoken words on a human being is the same as all acoustic waves, at least the ones our biology is capable of detecting. The waves vibra...

I don’t understand. Why is it magical thinking to believe pricking a person with a needle would cause them to feel pain?

For instance?

It has become exceedingly difficult to find what Russians are saying about any of this. Any view that could be construed as Russian or anti-Ukraine is...
