Interpretations may not be sacrosanct to formalized systems of logic, but are they truly nonsensical? Any epistemological modality that isn't purely f...

Yes, that is precisely what I was asking.

Before resurfacing from unrelenting tragedy, which we most certainly can, have we ever asked whether to rise?

Artistic license accords expressive liberty, irrespective of wherein it manifests. As long as it doesn't detract from or obfuscate the precise meaning...

Artistic license, in all probability.

Prior to commenting, I'll preface my stance on the philosophical implications of a purportedly infallible society, under the reasonable inference that...

The human being, bereft of sentience, is nothing more than an intelligent animal. Do you want to share credit for that quote? I think it's terrific, a...

'My understanding has been that misanthropy is a distaste for human society, more than a deep understanding of it. As such it would be invidious to di...

'As some have mentioned, misanthropy finds one or two crimes of which only some are guilty and indicts the entire species. It’s unjust, fallacious, an...

I think misanthropy is completely aligned with an existential viewpoint because existentialism makes the error of thinking that we exist for not purpo...

If misanthropy is just a condemnation of certain human behaviours then everyone is a misanthrope. There exists an unmistakable distinction between a c...

That's a terrific statement. Recognizing the immorality of the human being without experiencing either despair or resentment is no small feat.

I concur with you on the matter of misanthropy being far more commensurate with a personality than a philosophy. As far as generalizations are concern...

'In what way are their perspectives different?' Two structurally and phenomenally identical minds that exist in simultaneity will bear the same edific...

'Because I’m directly aware of 4 and 5 and can directly ‘see’ the difference between the two. On the other hand, I cannot directly see any person behi...

I entirely concur. I was merely conveying that given the character of the quote, one would hypothesize the above. 'You' was used interchangeably; I wa...

So for any two things, I either know that they’re the same, or I know that ther aren’t. How, then, can it be that I don’t know whether or not King Cni...

I remember reading a number of journalistic articles that cited astronomical increases to S&P 500 stocks, and consequently the net capital owned by th...

I I'm entirely in accord with the arguments you, and this forum, have previously put forth. A number of the distresses we've seen become pronounced ar...

I feel as though the most defining victim of this infamous pandemic, aside from its egregious death toll, has been the socioeconomic mobility developi...

If I understand your analogy correctly, a physician loses power of all consequence when a disease becomes incurable - but the intent to save the patie...

That's a very interesting take. I'd never thought of intent and consequence being two halves (possibly even two sides of the same coin) of action, but...

These are very cogently put forth thoughts on the metamorphosis of human imagination and expression, but what are their philosophical underpinnings?

Instantaneous truth, or truthlikeness even, seems to me as a more reliable judgement than infalliblism. You've already cited the inevitability of chan...

Wow. I've never contemplated that particular contrast - between wholistic ideas, and imperceptible details.

I too quite possess quite a cursory and disjointed conception of all philosophy, meaning that this is a novelty to me too. I don't feel quite as entra...

I imagine the grandiloquence your writings exert isn't deliberate, but concision in language might lend itself to be of utility to your arguments. Ino...

Dabbling in solipsism is a perilous prospect; it attempts to beguile you, and should it prove to be successful, you find yourself inescapably immersed...
