Just as I predicted, the virus is no longer a hoax. https://designpraxis.biz/img/corona.png

Show-offs.

Sorry I Kant help.
February 04, 2021 at 15:18
I will attempt to. In a previous post you wrote: Presumably you consider it vile because this brief statement has the effect of: This may be an oversi...
February 04, 2021 at 04:35
Would you mind explaining how I did that?
February 04, 2021 at 02:17
I think it’s that murder in general is not politicized, whereas things like capital punishment and abortion are. No politicization no need for politic...
February 04, 2021 at 02:13
Seems that everyone is so eager to jump on the politically correct bandwagon that they don’t even think of explaining themselves. What fantasy world d...

Companies rebrand. Of course you've noticed the bite in the Apple logo, so whatever sublimated meaning was being attempted with Newtons apple was repl...

There are plenty of topics with low quality OPs that are not locked or deleted. There are other topics like Is Murder Really That Bad? that are not lo...
February 03, 2021 at 22:50
That’s interesting, and had the topic remained open someone may have come along to explore it. We’ll never know now, but at least we’re secure in our ...

It was always kinda fucked up if you asked me, with “the fall of man” jazz.

Not entirely, no. For a small and literally iconic example take the Apple logo. Did you give that symbol its meaning? Millions have been spent in atte...

That sucks. I'd have probably taken door number two (black eye) cuz it's my foolishly impulsive Irish tempered nature. On an almost completely unrelat...

The best things in life are free. :flower:

I just looked at graphs for silver and gold. Both corresponded to econonomic trends such as the downturns around 1980 and 2010. Did the Hunt bros even...
February 02, 2021 at 00:11
If you're suggesting that those ultimately pulling the strings benefit from a divided nation I tend to agree. There's a great book about psychedelics ...
February 01, 2021 at 23:55
Of course, but we should acknowledge that no one had or has sufficient control for the situation to be handled ideally, or perhaps even halfway well. ...

Personal factors are exploited in order to ultimately result in particular actions. It’s not folk psychology.

No, NOS is a wily fucker. :razz:

If you have a theory about how lockdowns are somehow being used as a method of manipulation I’m interested in hearing it.
February 01, 2021 at 19:56
Ignorance is easily manipulated, it’s as simple as that. Would you deny it?
February 01, 2021 at 19:26
Which would ideally have a depolarizing effect.
February 01, 2021 at 19:19
The recent Capital insurrection suggests that words, specifically words that compose a big lie in that particular case, can have serious consequences....
February 01, 2021 at 18:57
Yes, I understand your general take but you mention miscalculation and my interest is your previous claim of manipulation.
February 01, 2021 at 18:47
The purpose of fear and stress is to avoid folly. Even if that were easily possible our values are not so easily reconfigured.
February 01, 2021 at 18:44
Do you mean that some of our ideas may be more important because they construct our worldview and our identity within that framework, or something lik...

I’ve visited beaches like that and further confess that they have their own unique appeal.

I forfeit the right to consult with attorney before posting... In my opinion it’s a good thing that marginalized groups are depicted in high status po...
February 01, 2021 at 02:26
Sorry, much of my effort is spent trying to take you seriously.
February 01, 2021 at 00:17
The list isn’t “created,” it’s a statistic, right? And as far as I can tell those are your words and therefore your particular narrative. I just read ...

You asked “What are BLM saying then - when protesting outside city halls” and I posted a video of BLM protesters saying things outside of a city hall ...

I’m not very good at conspiracy theories but I’ll give it a shot... perhaps there were no arrest related deaths in 2013 and because this fact didn’t s...
January 31, 2021 at 17:08
It’s hard to make anything out but I’m pretty sure no one is yelling “there’s a racist killing spree being conducted by the police,” though I did spot...
January 31, 2021 at 16:57
I did not stigmatize, and I can only envy the enlightened society that you guys live in where being a black or gay is a complete non-issue.
January 31, 2021 at 03:21
I think you’ve said it more than once actually, so I’ve had ample warning. Also, I honestly don’t think what I wrote is vile so will likely post more ...
January 31, 2021 at 02:27
Like what I mentioned. We all got virus problems now. Ban away, by the way, if I’m too vile.
January 31, 2021 at 01:04
We identify deficiencies and defects for different reasons. Defects can be found just about anywhere and the world can be seen as perfect with no defe...

https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/ardprs1516pf_sum.pdf Indeed, no one is claiming there’s a racist killing spree being conducted by the police. You ...

Being that there's no moral stigma associated with astigmatism, I think we're safe for the time being and can speak freely on this forum about our def...
January 30, 2021 at 00:12
My astigmatism is a human defect and I would guess that few would hesitate considering it a defect. Homosexuality is different (assuming it can be con...
January 29, 2021 at 21:18

It would be helpful if you were to explain exactly what it is that you think you’re prohibited from expressing/discussing.
