Batshittery in Poland. How could you be a white supremacist in specifically such a place given their recent history?

A way of life.

@"ssu", I'd be highly interested in your input in this thread. Sorry, and thanks!

:party:

*pig nods knowingly* Six of one, half a dozen of the other.

Comes and goes for me. How about you?

Then, is all that is left is coping? I suppose this is unimaginable to the idealist or poet?

Can one deny the reality of depression?

Quite a wallowsome day...

Haha, yeah...

Yes, it's a medical one. So, what about it?

Haha, yeah. I guess I do like the guy. I mean, if you value a better future, then he's doing his best to ensure one for the human species. Well, depen...

Voter turnout should tell us whether the moral debauched land of Murica is complete or not...

Well, that's kind of really a general statement, where does one begin with such a statement?

In what way?

At this point, it's an engineering problem as far as I know. Something which Musk is great at optimizing or delivering on.

Kinda sad to see the guy go. But, his posts were not subject to change, or at least I didn't see much change when he first started posting up until hi...

Hobby-horse away, given no other interest in the topic as far as I see.

After ten years and a small fortune in experimentation with medications, I think I'm on fairly safe and sustainable meds now: -Zyprexa and Strattera. ...

I was going to post about this here; but, wasn't sure if the audience was the right fit. First, one has to applaud Elon Musk for making this possible....

Well, part of what my OP is/was trying to impart was the idea that hotelling is tantamount to making concessions to your rival. And, given that your r...

Well, this sounds more like shifting the Overton window than Hotelling; but, I suppose they go hand in hand, yes? What if I said, that the politics of...

As a direct realist or indirect realist? I don't think antirealism meshes here in any way.

There's a lot of insight here. Hope I can address it all and if I don't, feel free to point out any omissions. This is what is very unique about the U...

We can continue this conversation here: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/6273/hotellings-law-in-us-politics

Yeah, but my main point is that hotelling's law doesn't apply to Trump, and hence you need something like a progressive or democratic socialist candid...

Whatever floats your boat.

Keep in mind, @"Wayfarer" that I'm talking not about hotelling, but rather voter turnout...

It would literally be a repeat of 2016 just Clinton with a penis. If you mean that Biden is only more popular given his exposure to the media, then ye...

This is basically Biden's strategy. And, it didn't work in 2016, so why would it now?

I think Kamila Harris is the dark horse in this race. Out of all the potential candidates, she and Warren have the highest chance of toppling Trump.

Yeah, Bernie probably will lose out to Warren; but, I'm fine with that and I suspect he is too.

:party:

It does create a straw-baby though, which can't consent/agree/vouch with or for their own life, though.

People who are surprised of all this just haven't spent enough time in the US...

What an impoverished life it must be to only desire happiness...

I'd pull out of the stock market until this bubble bursts.

And, at the end of the day it's still the same old crap with this guy. But, you know... Things could always be worse...

The illogicality is really showing here. How can you ask for consent from a fictitious straw-baby?

Oops, sorry. Hah. My internet autism is showing.

And, what about that makes you so fond of them?

You haven't yet demonstrated (for the above in any way to be a sound argument) that existence is necessarily suffering.

Well, the professions you mention are in the business of trying to make people happy. The heterodoxy of philosophy doesn't coincide with trying to mak...

Yes, socialism along with communism are the only two forms of government that concern itself with what is ethical on an individual level. I suppose th...

Yeah, so I think this is the difference between you and the majority of other antinatalists that I have seen hereabouts. In that in your case you aren...

From the paper: --- They were explicitly told that the questionnaire was not an exam and that there were no right answers. --- And therein is the diff...

Not bad! Though I do feel for educators landing last place on that chart...

Well, I hope others can see past this hyperbole and gross overgeneralization.

What other forms are there, asks the uneducated pig... Well, how do you go from surmising that concern for one's self isn't always the ideal path towa...
