If the mind is something we all have, and it exists in it's entirety prior to our awareness of it, then in principle it can be studied... if we know w...

My bad. It was Street... not you.

So, while this framework may lead to interesting and novel considerations regarding the three different kinds of thought described, it does not have w...

Harsh words towards one who is so overwhelmingly on the right side of history. He was not for the bank bailout in '08 by the way. You repeated that co...

Interesting way to parse some thought out nonetheless... :smile:

There are some thoughts that consist of correlations drawn between language use and other things. All of the 'kinds' in the OP include such. The third...

I think we are, but I could be wrong. It wouldn't be the first time, nor the last. :wink:

That's precisely the sort of characterization that is misleading in the sense of it diverts the focus away from socialism saving the day and changes i...

There is no medicare for all... even now... He did refuse to open the exchanges.

That's a slight mischaracterization of a few things actually...

Socialist measures are fixing the economic crisis... or stabilizing it at the least... The irony. The ignorance. The media puppets.
April 07, 2020 at 18:39
Joe Biden is actually bragging about being in charge of the oversight regarding how the '08 stimulus bill was spent... as if that was admirable??? :br...

I was thinking the same thing...

There is a fine line between courage and stupidity. The above overtly implies that self quarantine is cowardly, and not doing so is courageous. I'm re...

In short, judgment is a metacognitive endeavor and as such it requires pre-existing thought and belief, and the ability/faculty for thinking about tho...

Well, from what I remember about the notion(the academic one), I do not agree with the notion of "truthbearer"... But yes, not that I care, but I've b...

Exactly. True and false belief exist in their entirety long before we become aware of them.

Why do you think that neither party wants Bernie? Sickening.

Trump says by Easter, he hopes to have all the churches open and everything going again... His expert said he came from a perspective of hope... then ...

I hope this government gets it right this time around... What would Bernie do? I trust him. :wink:

When profit is the sole motive, it comes at the direct expense of everything else.

Yup. Predictions, in particular, are verified/falsified in just the same manner. Of course, we develop expectations long before we can begin performin...

If that is realism, carte blanche, then I'm certainly no realist. Statements do not express propositions. They express thought and belief. There are n...

It doesn't seem like some grand conspiracy to me either. Just many nefarious agents all doing what's allowed. I'm just attempting to get some question...

So... hypothetically, such an investor could sell off all his airline stock at a lower price than the current market value, or would those lower price...
March 17, 2020 at 08:45
So, it all started somewhere and snowballed. Who first began dumping huge numbers of shares at a lower price, and who is buying them? Is this a matter...
March 17, 2020 at 08:40
Right. That's what I'm asking about, but I'm not asking for generalities. I have a strong interest in this. What and/or who determines the selling pri...

Hey Jeep! I'm remain hesitant to use the notion of 'dark art'. However, there is something very suspicious about it all. Yeah, I appreciate the view y...

March 17, 2020 at 02:39
Same playbook Trump has been using... to expose him will expose so many others throughout history who've basically done the same things... I explicate...
March 17, 2020 at 02:05
Too kind. I may have told myself to fuck off! :wink: I'm a little angrier than usual nowadays. Again, my apologies. Thanks for bringing it to my atten...
March 17, 2020 at 01:54
By the way, you were right. After I reread our exchanges, I definitely did come off as being an asshole... My apologies. :flower:
March 17, 2020 at 01:47
Well, that's certainly understandable. No. I'm not denying that presidential polling is accurate. Rather, I'm wondering to what extent the polling is ...
March 17, 2020 at 01:41
No, it's not. At least, not in the case currently under consideration. Invoking the notion of intuition offers no help here. Muddies the waters. Five ...

I never made that claim, but could easily argue for it. One can easily know that the statement "the cup is in the fridge" is true or not long prior to...

It's called one. It is a question that is placed into the category of being a philosophical one. Your question involves metacognition. Truth does not....
March 16, 2020 at 05:31

March 16, 2020 at 02:43
Nothing at all wrong with that. Not sure why you would think otherwise. We share the same concerns here.

There is enough footage to stitch together the big picture... Leaders need good judgment. Biden showed a lack thereof during the debate tonight when h...

Take undeniably true statements. Use them as a means to discriminate between different philosophies.
