Given timetables and the likelihood of Trump winning the election (since we can rest assured thy economy will go down the drain), Trump is going to st...

Looking it up on wikipedia, I guess so. Truth is I have neither purpose or method to my writing. But am enjoying it more and more and I'm starting to ...

I still have some moves but inching towards Garret's body type unfortunately. But when dancing with Gloria I was closer to the first movie than Garret...

No apologies necessary. Your comments are always welcome. I'm also reworking my spacebug story to be more historically accurate following your and 180...

I think people's trust in political processes, especially in the US (but also where I'm from), is entirely misplaced. Your optimism is their reason fo...

It's a feature. You're glad for nothing. Way too little too late. When are you going to shoot your politicians for genocide?

Reading it back: anticlimactic in every way. I think I should make up some shit while staying closer to the truth and regret.

Probably can use a bit more editing but now you have at least the whole truth and nothing but the truth. :wink: Dear Vincent, Your inquisitiveness mov...

You're not reading what I wrote. I'm not saying market actors act immoral but they cannot claim a moral right to market outcomes, because the market d...

I already demonstrated a clear example where there's a fair exchange in the market but nonetheless there's no fair outcome. I'm not shifting language ...

this should work too: /uploads/resized/files/s6/xsq63mlgu1tz5qd5.jpg

interesting, if I have time, I'll see if I can dig up the original notes of what happened and see if an alternate ending works.

But this is simply not true. The market aims at an efficient exchange goods. They were developed for convenience not for moral reasons "let's meet in ...

At most you can claim you followed the rules and "playing by the rules" is still moral. But the rules are not aimed at moral outcomes. To have a moral...

Let's say I have a moral claim of ownership to a painting I made. Someone steals it. You buy it from him in good faith and a year later sell it onward...

Are you dense? This is totally not relevant to the argument. The argument is that the particular store I selected is not a moral choice but an economi...

Vikings used the rotting carcases of sharks. An acquired taste indeed.

Yes Tobias, everybody else stopped doing that. We use socks nowadays.

Thanks for the feedback. What were you hoping for in the ending? The whole thing actually happened except that I was so nervous around Gloria and inex...

Called that because they stuff cod in their pants to pretend to have a bigger package. No thanks.

I shared a story I probably should've saved for the competition but... Meh. https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/13300/letter-from-oslo/p1

Don't play dumb. Obviously I know "the market" isn't a human being. We're discussing market outcomes, which result from human interaction. Again, your...

Fine, we'll go back to my original claim. I was merely being charitable that some people do try to take it into account but since there's a clear info...

Lmao. That must be why people, perfectly capable of working, are still starving, because the market takes care of them and why we needed environmental...

I'm not stating shit. I've argued my case that since you have no moral right to specific outcomes of market transactions if the market does not take i...

As I stated before, this is false. Repeating it, doesn't make it true. This is a procedural argument because we live in a society that recognises cont...

So? What moral or legal argument are you trying to make?

There's neither a legal nor moral argument that you have any right to pretax income.

Have you seen the documentary "Biggest Little Farm"?

What kind of nonsense is this? Wage slavery has only gotten worse. Why do you think minimum wage has been stagnant for over a decade? Because of explo...

Try Rawls, Hobbes, Rousseau.

Nice attempt at trolling. How about you quote some respected collectivist or communitarian thinker instead of trying to maneuver respondents to defend...

"Collectivism" as if it's a bad word. Lol.

You're not a peasant, more like a food heathen.

What's a prosecco salad?

:vomit: Worst ever! Here's some carbohydrates with some more carbohydrates. Also it doesn't taste like anything.

Maybe not in the US but they are in other parts of the world. So a sandwich is not a sandwich which is not sandwich. Also @"hypericin", wraps and burr...

I assumed, in good faith, you hadn't read the article and was friendly enough to actually share the link instead of the quoted blurbs from Joshs. If y...

No. If your take away was that the next ice age is relevant to global warming now then you simply cannot read.

I can tell you haven't read the article. https://www.technologyreview.com/2009/12/21/207026/global-warming-vs-the-next-ice-age/

Ice ages are irrelevant for the timescale of global warming that we need to deal with now, so it's not a "widening if understanding" but a waste of ti...

So I see now everybody is wasting their time in the glaciation thread when the actual subject is the man made climate crisis we have on our hands now....

Informative as was your previous post. I thought you were a psychologist? Hopefully @"Tate" you're getting "up to speed" and we can start discussing t...

This is not about everybody else but you just writing really bad posts. If everybody interprets it a certain way, you're going to have to work on how ...

This. We can end this thread here and now.

I did: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/723090

Xtrix only deleted them after I raised the issue that I thought you were trolling. The only reason I didn't delete them is because I wanted others to ...

So your argumentation is about winning instead of edification? Good to know, I guess. Must be why you don't want to discuss with @"boethius" anymore s...

Who are your "opponents"?
