Someone looking for proof? Interesting that Sand should admit that. I was.

Now... Can you formulate a valid objection?

There are obviously two different senses of the term "post-truth" at work here. Yours and mine. I'm neither denying nor affirming the coherency of you...

The ethical impact is clear... Are the ends good for the overwhelming majority, and if not what needs to be done in order to correct the situation? Th...

Post truth...

The claim "No post-truth" doesn't follow from "Some folk doesn't mean all folk, or even most folk". That is a non-sequitur. I've never claimed that a ...

So, throughout history the term "truth" has been used in a few prominent and starkly different ways. This has caused much confusion and all sorts of c...

I'm telling you that nothing you've said is based upon the meaning of the words in the quote box. Those words were expressed by me. You want proof of ...

Can you formulate a valid objection?

Meant to write... It's not my concern that you write stuff based on stuff that I do not write. If you do not acknowledge the depth of that issue, ther...

It's my concern that you write stuff based on stuff that I do not write.

Nothing you've said applies to what you were purportedly reporting upon, and nothing you've written shows otherwise.

Sigh... Semantics are for rookies.

Is that a yes?

You done yet?

Non-sequitur. Try again.

So, the popularity of talking about things while avoiding using the term "truth" grew exponentially and along with it grew greater misunderstanding th...

A bit of different context... So, throughout history the term "truth" has been used in a few prominent and starkly different ways. This has caused muc...

Treating others poorly makes some folk feel good about themselves.

I have no reason whatsoever to think/believe that you're speaking sincerely Sand and every reason to conclude otherwise. I've no further interest in a...

Creative is setting out the problems within the current society that is being called "post-truth", and he doesn't care what you call it... I'm not imp...

Tom does not think in statements, and yet we report upon Tom's thought/belief. The content of our reports is not equivalent to the content of Toms tho...

Tom has no conception of truth, and yet has true belief. How, exactly can it be the case that Tom has true belief? If true belief requires truth, and ...

A factual statement:An overwhelming majority of US citizens think/believe that most and/or all politicians are dishonest. p1. Citizens vote for politi...

So. most of us are familiar with what it takes to discover something for the first time...

By the way, there's nothing in the last reply that I find unacceptable. I mean, it seems we agree on all that as well... I was moving onward prior to ...

To me, the issue is understanding what non linguistic thought/belief consists in/of. It's not statements. Agree?

This presupposes knowledge of all the problems. We do not have that. What we do have is a list of all the things that we think/believe are a problem. ...

What's so difficult about defining the problem? Let's set them all out. If there is a single thread that ties them all together, it's something worth ...

Now we're talking... I'd like to see it continue.

How important is rational thinking as it pertains to the topic? Never mind how long deliberate deceit has been happening in government. Never mind who...

I'm sure that some don't give it much thought Jeep. I suspect Augustino has more faith in the institutions to prevail on the other side in better shap...

Ok. And yet not all thought/belief counts as truth, reasoning... So why should it's content? Good question. We could determine whether or not it makes...

Yup. I tried to make Heiddy's notion of truth fit, but it seems that those who most often talk about a post truth world aren't thinking along those li...

What are you talking about? I just read it... again. I see no proof. You claim otherwise. One of us is wrong. Use the article and show me and everyone...

So Srap... What about the last question I asked regarding the content of another's belief and your report thereof?

Meta is just plain wrong.

Ancient writing systems are meaningful. There are no examples of potential meaning.

Use the article to prove what you claim...

Potential meaning is an empty concept.

One who has watched those interrogations soon finds out that there were no laws broken. Warren exposed how the banks oversaw themselves basically, and...

You obviously have not watched Warren interrogate those involved in the matters.

The reason why "It is raining" implies belief but isn't equal to "I believe it is raining" is because sometimes "I believe" implies doubt/uncertainty.

Is your report of another's belief equal - in content - to the other's belief?

I can only laugh here... I've nothing further with you Meta...

We can look at available footage of Trump talking about things at different times and clearly note self-contradiction. For instance, taking a look at ...

Ok... Now that that jello has been nailed to the wall... Let's get back to the topic, shall we?

Sure we can... Remember saying this? That claim admits that you insulted but only after someone else did...
