No, and that's what.

Affects the way we perceive things AND the way we imagine things to be in the absence of a perceiver?

Is there such a thing as "THE orthodoxy"? It rings puffy and tendentious.
January 17, 2022 at 01:35
It's supposed to get stuck and we're supposed to go silent.

A third possibility: the things we encounter are dependent on human contact to take the form we perceive or imagine them to take. The things we encoun...

More likely Americans now see how powerless they are against the force of a Big Lie when properly buttressed by the media and Facebook. He lost the re...

Here you seem to take my position: Enlightenment philosophy hasn't yet trickled down to the rabble. Here, again, "we" is used too broadly. What a sign...

It was a conditional: "If." It wasn't an attack. Rural America is rife with ignorance and superstition, dull-mindedness, racial tension, religious pre...

Of course the Dems are gonna soak it up. They're desperate, as always. They see the power of the Big Lie. Everyone sees how media and technology are n...

Sorry, you don't merit refutation.

Where there are no facts there are no refutations.

If only Trumps folks (minus Trump) and BLM et al could grow up and join forces we'd have a revolution to be proud of.

You linked to a propaganda network airing a scripted interview with a political quack and below it you said beware of propaganda. That's what's warm.
January 06, 2022 at 23:03
That's warm. Newsmax as source-cited site by side a Cassandraing about propaganda.

Here you express admiration for purveyors of violence.

Next let's prove the sun is shining. It happened in plain daylight. Your obfuscations are transparent. I can smell your smile.

December 22, 2021 at 23:45
Was it a "violent uprising against the government?"
December 22, 2021 at 23:45

I do.

If not "insurrection," what do you call the events of January 6th?
December 21, 2021 at 20:32
In what sense were the events of January 6th a hoax?
