Haha, :cool:

The Iron Giant.

I agree. Monsterous amounts of frustration for a holistic learner abound.
July 29, 2018 at 20:06
I would tend to agree. Although, it's much harder to grasp the 'big picture' of some course or field of study right from the getgo in college settings...

What say you?
July 28, 2018 at 03:38
But, all the fear-mongering aside. National socialism, if it can be understood without connotations of fascism, isn't all that bad. Agreed?
July 28, 2018 at 02:58
Indeed.
July 28, 2018 at 02:54
There's also a more nefarious and sickly part of me that just wants to see Trump squirming and watching his base be composed of a diminishing pool of ...
July 27, 2018 at 04:41
I'm not too sure about Pence being Prez either. Dems stand to benefit more from dragging out the investigation. Trump will just be a lame duck after t...
July 27, 2018 at 04:35
I believe the consensus was that the PSR is or was an epistemological principle first and foremost in the piggybacked thread mentioned in the OP. I'm ...
July 27, 2018 at 04:18
Yeah, that goes without saying. I'm more into letting this drag out until the next relection just to sear it into the memory of everyone who voted for...
July 27, 2018 at 04:06
As far as I'm aware a conspiracy to commit a crime against the US government is sufficient to get one's self in the slammer. So, foreknowledge has alr...

What would count as corroborated evidence in this case, @"Benkei"?
July 27, 2018 at 03:43
Hmm...
July 27, 2018 at 03:41
If memory serves me well, yes.
July 27, 2018 at 03:40
Shit is hitting the fan.
July 27, 2018 at 03:34
Trump's antisocial personality must be going in overdrive.
July 27, 2018 at 03:30
Aww yeah, that's was' up...

This is pretty big: https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/26/politics/michael-cohen-donald-trump-june-2016-meeting-knowledge/index.html

Nutty.
July 26, 2018 at 23:25
In case I haven't dumbed it down enough; What is a sufficient reason?
July 26, 2018 at 17:48
So, thank you for taking the time to address this issue of causes. I seem to be interested in what that 'something else' is. What do you take it to me...
July 26, 2018 at 17:32
Duu it. Haha.
July 26, 2018 at 05:42
Bruh, we have another broseph. As long it doesn't become a brotherhood, we should be fine, yea?
July 26, 2018 at 05:05
Aww yea, almighty flower!
July 26, 2018 at 04:46
I still don't think I understand what you're saying. If so, let's return to the OP. What do you think about the questions posed in the OP?
July 26, 2018 at 04:43
I think the difference is superficial. Surely, a reason for why an event happened the way it did is pertinent to the topic at least. Anyway, how would...
July 26, 2018 at 04:17
:cheer:
July 26, 2018 at 04:10
In case anyone is concerned, as BitterCrank voiced his concerns, the baby in my avatar is doing fine. He struggled but is fine.
July 26, 2018 at 03:50
I bring up the post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy due to such a problem of induction about certain events given a sufficient reason for their (unknown?...
July 26, 2018 at 03:38
So, namely if we have modalities we are concerned with, and as you stated: Then, how are we to know what causes led to what event given uncertainty ab...
July 26, 2018 at 03:35
:lol:
July 26, 2018 at 03:25
How does one then avoid the post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy under such a state of affairs?
July 26, 2018 at 02:58
This post was in part inspired by what @"StreetlightX" has to say in the older PoSR thread, here. I've just been putting it off in addressing the issu...
July 26, 2018 at 02:04
Just my two cents; but, the logical atomists, I think, correctly assumed that things can exist as atomistic elements/objects of the world. One could s...
July 26, 2018 at 01:58
@"ssu", what do you think about this, in regards to China representing a fascist state? Any further thoughts welcome, as this is a pretty interesting ...
July 26, 2018 at 00:50
You keep on treating fascism as if it were an exclusive thing to Nazism, which it isn't. Nobody mentions it but Japan was fascist in the past too, not...

https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/199457 I think that's pretty accurate...
July 26, 2018 at 00:04
Unless they lead by example. Think China...
July 25, 2018 at 23:54
No, it's just depressing that you believe such things. Nothing to address here.
July 25, 2018 at 23:11
Can we get a sidebar to inform us on what target we're trying to reach each month, monetarily? That could help with trying to meet our funding goals.

Then we invent electric cars!
July 25, 2018 at 04:15
He did come pretty late on the scene. There were others closer to the actual formalization of fascism in Italy. Like, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gi...
July 25, 2018 at 03:29
Yeah, well, I don't disagree with that. I just thought that the intelligentsia and other thinkers of fascism thought that to be some perversion of the...
July 25, 2018 at 03:25
Yeah, but CRISPR is making all that nonsense obsolete. Just watch what new gene therapies will come about to the public in the coming years.
July 25, 2018 at 03:22
I'm thinking more along the lines of the intelligentsia and where they drew their inspiration from to envision a fascist society.
July 25, 2018 at 03:19
What do you mean?
July 25, 2018 at 03:13
Hmm, where is it still in practice, I mean on a national scale?
