#indyref2?

Ad hominem. That's three fallacies in a row. I'm labelling the nonsense you call arguments and not missing a beat.

Being equals is really divisive...

How do you do that? I can't reread anything without going totally bored. I only reread legal texts to verify the exact argument or rule.

And as a bonus we get a non sequitur. Why are you even on a philosophy forum if you don't even know how to argue a point?

Cool strawmen. Once you're capable of articulating an argument I'll get back to you.

Every system has emergent properties which therefore do not require them to be formal.

Nice. Victim blaming. If only women didn't wear skirts. If only black people weren't distrustful of the police. EDIT: On the other hand, I suppose it'...

Ahah. I hadn't picked up on that because being approached by the police for riding your bike in the wrong place is a common occurrence in the Netherla...

Nobody gives a fuck about HK any way. It's barely in the news. I've stopped buying Chinese stuff or products with Chinese sourced parts. Difficult, ti...

Pacta sunt servanda. Well, if we're talking bonds, reneging on promises happens quite often with sovereigns. Takes about 3 to 5 years to win the trust...

Drunk people are more likely to get run over, so when they do, according to you, the cause of death isn't blunt force trauma from a car. If it wasn't ...

Where are all these fears coming from about stuff that isn't going to happen?

I'm having trouble placing the kizzee shooting as an example. If it went down as described it doesn't seem totally unreasonable or am I missing someth...

Wasting my time

Right. So Trump was worried about votes not being counted all that time and not voter fraud? The shapes you'll bend yourself into to defend the guy. :...

Banana. Republic.

Isn't that incitement and therefore illegal?

I don't refer to "it" when speaking about animals either. If I know it's gender, I'll use that. Otherwise most animals are either grammatically female...

4 more years of Trump and it might.

That's quite obvious if you compare the lack of progress for minorities in the US and then look at Western and Nordic Europe since the 90s or so. Stil...

It certainly solicits the worst of the racists to come out touting their guns. It shows the double standard more clearly. It shows which politicians l...

How is peaceful protesting working out for them so far?

Funny how you make less sense three replies in whenever I engage you. Who are these others I'm blaming? I believe I was talking to you and about your ...

uhuh. So you're a liar and pretend it's my fault. Keep going charlatan.

I haven't called any Americans fascists, but that lie serves to underscore your lack of ethics as usual.

Nothing wrong with law and order. It's the combination with an imagined enemy and government propaganda to that effect. If it isn't Jews, it's antifa.

Create fear and offer more law and order. Reminds me of fascism.

I condemn your total lack of morality. I'm horrified by any killing but where was your condemnation these past months? Instead you were justifying pol...

And here is at last the epitome of the partisanship of a Trumpster. Never mind all the protesters killed over the past months but if it's one of their...

Read the thread.

This was cool : https://www.instagram.com/p/CEeHxqgF7gU/?igshid=1m4bdyxueuzhe

Well, I guess I should be lucky it surprises me as it says something about the state of things in the Netherlands (which has a long way to go as well)...

We already dealt with it pages ago. No need to repeat it.

Please don't turn this in another anti-natalism thread.

Rittenhouse movements Another thing I don't get. Rittenhouse would not be arrested if it wasn't for the available video. He walks up to police in the ...

Trumptards go out and kill protesters and then whine about protesters yelling "Breonna Taylor" in Rand Paul's face. So there we have it, protests are ...

:rofl: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/gop-no-new-2020-platform-trump-agenda The "greatest democracy" in the world has a two party system where one p...

50% of the population of the "greatest" country in the world are deathly afraid of a lot of things. Communists, Mexicans, black people, the Chinese...

I zoned out when she said "I urge you to judge based on results..." Trump hasn't done shit. So no need to hear the rest.

No different in the EU, I'm afraid. Although it's a matter of degree, particularly Eastern Europe has more issues with minorities. And we're definitel...

Do US police have Rules of Engagement? Because aside from all the systemic issues with regard to the wrong incentives, lack of education etc. if we wa...

The first one I heard "I speak to you as a mother, a former prostitute..." I'm a mysogynist apparently but it made her speech a lot funnier.

I saw the Blake shooting. Why are guns even drawn at that point? Blake is unarmed...

It disappeared. What happened?

clips? I'm not that interested in US politics I watch the DNC or RNC.

Fuck yes.

Do countries not share our look at each others data or something? The US has just ok'ed convalescent plasma as a treatment. I think it's almost 2 mont...

Marx wanted class distinction to disappear by adjusting social and economic rules in such a way everyone becomes part of the same class. Also Marx wro...

I don't know where voting based on plurality is decided but if one thing needs to go, that's it.
