I think it's upstreams all the way down. I had missed the possibility that, yes, while stances and beliefs about matters of fact consist of intentions...

I read BG&E, Genealogy of Morals and Zarathustra years ago. I enjoyed them.

I implore you to release that syphilitic mustachoid from your heart.

God damn man, put the Nietzsche down and go outside.

Some people have reported that not working in the past. I rewrote this post three times and it didn't recall this second sentence on one of them. The ...

No option for it on the back end. Can't be implemented.

I think the following is an option - upstream, downstream and alongside relations are allowed between stances and evidence, it just so happens that th...

Yes. Who would've thought the rulers of the republic would be reading Foucault.

Great OP and interesting paper. Before I go off half cocked, I was wondering if Chakravartty or Pincock have any writings about how one might adapt on...

Just generally that marketers are reading about the creation of subjectivities and epistemes as a fundament to their study.

What was it?

I called your idea it. I have plenty of ideas like that. Sorry for hurting your feelings.

Yeah. And it surprises me that you believe how stuff happens has no bearing on how we can, or should, talk about how stuff happens. It's an incredibly...

I think you misunderstand me. What I'm saying is that if someone has some metaphysical idea, and if that idea tells you something about how stuff happ...

A real "scales dropped from my eyes" moment was learning that Foucault was part of some marketing classes.

I think that's over general. If we're aware that a coercion, addiction, or being inebriated impacts someone's capacity for choice, then studying how c...

Seems about right. Also seems about right. I'm willing to bet how I used "should" is how you used "must". I'm sure we're both aware that what must hap...

Yeah we use AI leveraged SEO for pre-blitz scoping of consumer trendsetters and market bottlenecks. It's just how it's done.

The Unwomanly Face of War, Svetlana Alexievich goes into these norms in quite some detail. Even though it's about women in WWII, some of which were pa...

Yes. Protein branded food. It's fucking everywhere. Protein chocolate, protein sandwiches blah blah. Tescos here has "protein wraps", which are both l...

Yeah I think it fits your theory somewhat well. I don't think it fits the narrative you're criticising very well. It seems a vestige of a more gender-...

I think the point you made in the OP is rather important. There was a recent poll in the UK which showed that around 40% of high schoolers believed th...

The ideas you expressed approval of, through Kant, are very Christian though. While his views on the matter had {at best} a mixed reception from theol...

I think you're assuming that "free will" is a space of concepts, whereas it's a fairly demarcated one in public parlance. People think of a self causi...

Yeah. At least you know what you're smoking.

I just have a take. 1) Free will as a concept arose as a response to the theodicy. AFAIK this is just true. As a concept it was never meant to make se...

Aye. I think it's quite clear at this point that "free will" as a concept is a theological atavism. The body's volitional processes are nothing like a...

Yeah. The account of choice where a choice is an experiential component of an action is just an instance. The action in the OP is the body's evolving ...

Nice. That's the flavour of account I gestured toward with my response earlier. The further Z being a functional state of the body, the choice to kick...

Oh, "creates and sustains". Every time you see the phrase "in and through". "Posited and presupposed". All the same shit.

Feedback isn't reciprocal causality. On the level of a system feedback relationships occur sequentially from one variable at time t to another variabl...

People in general will make token gestures but likely won't organise, or otherwise do what is necessary, to change things.

Can you stop tagging me in these things please. I'll comment on them if they interest me at the time. Thanks.

Oh boy.

Nice post. I want to add 4. to that list: 4. Neither dream X nor event Y can be said to cause the other. The relation between X and Y is not a causal ...

Glad somebody is. Ah well, at least the news is exciting.

Apparently the answer to the OP is "rearm". @"Benkei" you doing alright?

Does anyone have any idea whether this tidal wave of shit is malice done incompetently or incompetence done maliciously? The news has been a multiple ...

Ah right. I hear rage along the grapevine these days, no longer involved in research. My recent exposure to it {in person} has been in addiction studi...

I've run out of steam for now. Thanks for the excellent discussion.

I don't understand how you can construe the post-phenomenological heritage a minor paradigm when it's quite hegemonic. It isn't hegemonic everywhere i...

The following inference: If I construe the spirit of an obligation as "engendering the kind of world that obligation seeks to create" and the obligati...

Yes. Even though the central "destructions" in the critique have been elaborated in secondary and tertiary literature for years. I want to say as the ...

Well no wonder the paper is hard to read.

Unconditioned meaning foundational to perspective?

It seems to me you're describing a psychological difference, rather than a perceptual or epistemological one. Like it's a core belief. It is, and they...

Not all of this vitriol is aimed at you @"Joshs", I've just been reading this for over a decade and I'm sick of having it explained to me like I've ne...

Every single thing which is said has those caveats! There's no extra information in the post-phenomenological gloss you provided. You've either got th...

That translates to "a thing which was said".

Except for that claim.
