Do I seriously need to hold your hand? You must be a p-zombie or an AI training bot. It follows that, in a society that values freedom and individuali...
We're not talking about people that respond by saying. "No! What you are saying isn't true! You're manipulating these people to incite a riot.", or ac...
We agree, we're just using different terms to describe what is happening. So if you want to say that our brains are different and it is because we hav...
Exactly. Our brains do not have the same information. We're not talking about ANY reaction, just unethical ones, like rioting. If someone tells you to...
You spoke about being "all-knowing", which is what I was responding to. Now you're talking about access to the proper information, which proves my poi...
If that were the case, we would all be responding the same way, but we don't so your theory does not fully explain what we observe. How is saying some...
Exactly. And I am not off topic discussing authoritarianism and libertarianism in a thread titled: The Authoritarian Liberty Paradox. This is a typica...
The transgender issue IS a rabbit hole, so to even participate is to jump down a rabbit hole and argue with esoteric posters. Philosophy often involve...
Using your own words, they are a biological woman, so use the women's bathroom. I've asked this before: Why the "biological" qualifier for woman and m...
What does one mean by the "majority shouting down the minority"? What is a real world example? In a democracy isn't the majority the same as the gover...
I'm talking about how certain political groups limit our freedom of choice by only telling us part of the story, and part of the story they do tell us...
Wrong and wrong. I don't need to know the expansion rate of the universe to know if Joe Biden was mentally incompetent while President or not or to kn...
If the author does not want to appear biased then they would take a more objective position. By focusing on the lesser of the two "evils", your intent...
Ok, but now I've moved on to ask about why there is a difference and to question the validity that there even is a variance. Read the rest of the post...
:up: Which is exactly what Democrats and Republicans are doing. Neither wants to appear authoritarian because in a culture that values freedom and ind...
We typically don't have to because the other more obvious male and female sexual characteristics occur almost always with the male and female chromoso...
Now that I think a bit further about it, in what way is there even a variance? Either you take the pill or you don't (whether it's tomorrow or next we...
What would real world examples of radical individualism and radical institutionalism look like? I gave an example of radical individualism as a hermit...
Well, you wrote this: Isn't that what I just showed that there are times where the "influencer" had no influence at all? If that is what you meant to ...
Exactly. Was extreme collectivism also criticized? It seems to me that the answers lie between the two extremes - that we are individual members of a ...
Not in a government composed of two political parties where the political parties do not speak on behalf of the state, but on behalf of their party. W...
You forgot the most important example. Example 3: Oscar replies: "No, I will never eat this pill because Mavis is full of shit and has a history of ly...
I'm not trying to defy determinism. I'm embracing it. You simply aren't reading. The difference lies in the reason why we observe a difference in beha...
No, it isn't. You're conflating human's social nature with their sexual nature. Right, which is to say that the group's membership is dependent upon o...
What do you mean by "It's never 100%"? Does 100% of everyone that is not deaf hear spoken words? Yes. Does 100% of everyone that hears the same words ...
You're moving the goal-posts. You asked: in response to this: I provided the links to show that Trump supported Democrats. Now you are asking for link...
Free speech is not using scribbles in any way you want. If we were to do that, how would you hope to communicate with others if you simply decided to ...
There's plenty that can be found with a 30 second Google search. The fact that you can't do this yourself is evidence that you aren't willing to quest...
And no one is using the phrase, "immaterial soul" except you, so you are straw-manning. In the sense that they follow the same natural laws, yes, they...
Provide a citation that defines a social construction as such. What you described could just as easily be categorized a delusion. Fear of the governme...
You have a history of cherry-picking and straw-manning other's arguments, so I don't trust you haven't done the same here. Your reputation precedes yo...
Michael has defined gender is a social construct. A social construct is defined as an agreement between members of a society. Gender as a social const...
No one is saying that isn't the case. The question is what goes on between the word entering the ear and the response that follows. And it logically f...
I'm tired of going in circles with you. I've already answered the question using your own definition of gender and you are still having a difficult ti...
We went over this in our characteristics of sex. Artificial parts do not qualify as actual sex parts, just as a dildo does not qualify as a penis. A h...
It's not a deflection. It's an unwillingness on your part to be intellectually honest. If the social construct states that bathrooms are generally div...
The question was answered. Did having genital surgery change their sex? I asked the same question in my example of a woman with a double mastectomy. I...
I already did but you've been cherry-picking. According to your definition of gender as a social construct, gender would be the agreement among member...
Give me a break. The left was willing to accept money from Trump and accept Musk's electric vehicles until they decided to run for president as a Repu...
To be able to even understand the concept of language-use means that you have to be a realist. You have to have reached the stage of development where...
I also said that women have used the men's bathroom and men have used the women's bathroom, but you keep cherry-picking. So generally speaking, bathro...
For me, meaning is the relationship between some cause and its effect. The existence of scribbles on this screen would be an effect with the cause bei...
Context is needed in all these instances. We only communicate in one word sentences when no other words are needed to provide context. Words that have...
No, it's not. Yes, because bathrooms are divided by sex and not gender. It's really that simple. It is you that is conflating gender as a social const...
Wrong. No one ever simply walks around and says, "bank". "Bank" is often used with other words and it the other words that provide the context of the ...
Of course not, but I did have the capacity to learn a language, and some have a better capacity than others, which manifests in the way they use a lan...
