I don't see a contradiction. I do a lot of painting and the activity is unquestionably aesthetic. Think of an art form like music, it can be an aesthe...

It’s not irrational to reject another’s perspective, no.
July 29, 2025 at 20:37
My aim, as I said, is to try avoiding useless bickering. My interest is something you brought up: looking into the character of the anti-woke. You ask...

I looked for a possible outline (rather than a puzzle piece) on the Amazon sample and was disappointed. To my surprise I did find this nugget of wisdo...

I forgot to include anti-woke, which is also quite influential. If Bud Light’s gesture didn’t feel like a push there wouldn’t have been pushback. Awar...

Credit where credit is due–that's a real product. I photoshoped this however: https://i.postimg.cc/xT3w12FV/temp-Image-YL06zo.avif It illustrates a pr...

The same reason the political class loves anti-wokeism.
July 29, 2025 at 06:08
I said that I almost included it myself but didn't think it necessary to make the point. That's not saying you were wrong. Awareness is the preconditi...

Rather, your unwillingness to to employ CT expresses your anti-wokeness.
July 29, 2025 at 02:52
I almost added homonormativity but thought it superfluous to the point. Anyway, wokeness critiques visible social structures. You’re employing culture...

I was attempting to adopt woke-speak or what the anti-woke decidedly don't speak. I thought that was clear. How would you view the incident through th...

Most concisely would simply be what the term implies: asleep or unaware. Take the controversy surrounding Bud Light and transgender influencer Dylan M...

Frankly, it appears that you're looking for an 'obtuse buyer' of your book and that's why you avoid openly discussing its contents. Good luck with tha...

A succesful woke spectacle but triumphant? Due process prevailed over woke mob justice. And I think it could be argued that the long-term backlash res...

Curious that you only look at one side of the spectacle. The testimony of both Ford and Kavanaugh was emotional and lacked the explicit language or rh...

My point is simply that religions are inherently exclusive and fail the excluded. Your example illustrates this well. In Orthodox Brahmanical Hinduism...

Obviously a lot has changed in religion since then. Though I didn't watch the video my interpretation is that Are48 is essentially pointing out that r...

I assume that your particular distillation of wokeism helps you to better deal with the concrete complexities and diversity of life.
July 24, 2025 at 16:22
The purpose of the allegations is obviously distraction.

I’m notably no closer to understanding this foundation from which solutions to humanity’s problems might be found. Don’t you believe that it would be ...

The only real value that religion has is the potential to make the imperfect perfect and imperfect and neither imperfect nor perfect.

Doesn’t this handover more executive power to any administration and is that what you really want?

So do you think a general conclusion is possible for religionists?

You’re fast, I corrected that within a minute.

Just to note a basic division in testimony, non-theistic religions tend to report experiences of emptiness and such, while theistic religions tend to ...

I have no doubt that it's extremely complicated.

That hope and love are intertwined in faith indicates that its function has to do with human bonding rather than salvation. Why should salvation requi...

I don’t know, the term ‘samadhi junkie’ suggests that practitioners may develop a strong personal predilection for the experience.

It seems to me that secularists and religionists are equally capable of seeing purpose, meaning, and beauty, as well as order and truth.
