Well everyone, this is the end of this epic thread. There will be no Trump thread on the new site, and that’s probably for the best, so our bickering ...

The best moment in Trump’s State of the Union Address is when Trump asked everyone there to stand if they believed in the fundamental principle that t...

It’s a strong win for the neosocialists and globalism. But even without IEEPA, Trump can quickly recreate much of the current trade policy via other m...

Interesting concept for the enervated and sat-upon peoples of the EU. Exclusive: US plans online portal to bypass content bans in Europe and elsewhere...

I don't understand how one cannot be pleased at this kind of disclosure.
February 18, 2026 at 17:30
One way to help is to point to those involved in his orbit, like the Clintons. You could also point out that Epstein was coaching a congresswoman in a...

I just find it hilarious that it exonerated those who you hated, but exposed those who you support.

To what extent is the problem of perception also a problem of identity? If one sifts through the menagerie of mental entities proposed by the Indirect...

One of Obama’s top lawyers. It’s almost crazy they wanted this stuff out, then it keeps backfiring in their faces. So funny.

What?
February 14, 2026 at 05:07
So every country that requires ID to vote is disenfranchising millions of people. But I hear no one making such an argument against other countries, l...
February 13, 2026 at 23:05
“Widespread”. That word just seems to always find itself in front of “voter fraud” whenever an apologist speaks of it. Is plain old non-widespread vot...
February 13, 2026 at 21:27
But if they wanted to, they could get one. That’s the reality. Sorry, even the heritage foundation doesn’t know how many illegals have voted in electi...
February 13, 2026 at 21:06
I think it’s condescending that you’re treating people as if they cannot do the basic requirements of getting ID. In fact there are plenty of supports...
February 13, 2026 at 20:54
So you are assuming, without evidence, that these people are American. Tough titty. If one cannot provide a drivers licence, he cannot legally drive. ...
February 13, 2026 at 20:36
You city gives you a birth certificate when born. You get a certificate of citizenship when you become a citizen legally. Is that not how it works in ...
February 13, 2026 at 20:23
Birth certificate, social security number, passport. Do you require ID to vote?
February 13, 2026 at 20:04
How do you know they are Americans if they cannot prove their citizenship? As of January 2024, more than 7.2 million migrants had illegally crossed in...
February 13, 2026 at 19:00
The “Save America Act” passed the house, finally. Why do certain politicians not want voters to prove their citizenship, like other civilized countrie...

A second axis? is it going to be named Up/Down? Top/Bottom? Can't wait to read it.
February 12, 2026 at 18:19
In my opinion the left/right political spectrum is largely hokum. The idea in English is little more than the 20th century exaggeration of Thomas Carl...
February 12, 2026 at 17:55
I could see it. It’s a small town of less than ten thousand and Trump is the most prominent figure there. Trump probably knows the guy.
February 12, 2026 at 17:07
Sometimes you just don’t want anyone to know you’re an informant. Do you suspect something nefarious? Then the sheriff of Palm Beach must have lied to...

Is that back when you said the FBI was going to collapse under his leadership? I’ll give you my answer in two more years.
February 11, 2026 at 06:18
I knew it. Like clockwork, the spin has begun. It's fascinating how the anti-Trump mind works. https://twitter.com/TheDemocrats/status/202123674246075...
February 10, 2026 at 17:24
Like I said, I'm very interested in how this is spun. If you read the ABC article, it appears they are insinuating Trump is a liar for saying he didn'...

I don’t think Carney is guilty of anything. Epstein and Ghislaine had their hands in all elite circles, world wide. Of course the pictures prove nothi...

That’s right. The former Governor of the Bank of England and now Prime Minister of Canada photographed with child-sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, ju...

February 10, 2026 at 16:35
I was interested in how you lot would accept this information in order to maintain your story. Will you recall this information when your disk jockey ...
February 10, 2026 at 16:18
Just kidding. According to the document Trump was informing on Ghislaine Maxwell 20 years ago, while @"ssu"’s European elites and @"Questioner"’s Mark...

This is most damning revelation of Trump in the Epstein files so far. This will support @"ssu"’s conspiracy theories. https://abcnews.go.com/US/police...

Well, there are photosensitive molecules in your skin and elsewhere if you ever feel checking it out.
February 09, 2026 at 04:01
Have you never felt the sun on your skin? You might need to get out more.

I find computational metaphors for mind to be trivial, so I do not believe there is anything like data or processing going on in there. But that’s a d...

Clearly I’m not in the habit of believing everything they say.

I wonder why they don’t want ICE to wear body cams? Because it captures the behavior of the deranged agitators. ICE surveillance concerns shift Democr...

What is precluded and how is it precluded?

In fact I argued that we perceive the light directly, described how it is possible, and can describe the properties of this real-world medium. I don’t...

None of those are possible unless he first believes he can survive as a disembodied brain, which is a huge leap. Of course you’re allowed to say what ...
February 07, 2026 at 19:05
Yes it does. One has to assume he is a brain and little more. One has to assume that senses are little more than inputs. These assumptions regarding t...

It isn’t possible that 2 is true unless one already assumes the premises of indirect realism. Moreover, it is rational to assume that things are the w...

Before one considers the indirect realist’s thought experiments he ought to ask how an indirect realist can get from propositions about mental states ...

It’s fine to be skeptical of the senses and for the reasons you outline, but it is unprincipled and inconsistent to refuse that same level of skeptici...
