You're speaking in riddles again, Gnomon, which is fine, but it's getting old.

:sad:

Is there any legislation in the works along these lines that you know of? Anything that someone might contact their representatives to support?

For what it's worth, Trudeau admitting systemic racism. Remarkable by comparison to POTUS. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q62ISvIgxkQ

I don’t recall claiming sainthood. Anyway, shouldn't you be dismantling my narrative? Trump isn’t divisive? The divisiveness is not strategic? and wha...

Is there something preventing you from responding for your fallen hero and righteously defending his honor?

The first thing that comes to mind for me, and I could be way off-base from not fully grasping your theory, is that what’s at the core of human morali...

The core values of the white man expressed in systematic racism, for instance?

Talking to a ghost... Part of the reaction is controlled by an ass with far more influence than any intelligent society should empower, proving beyond...

Offense, eccentricity, or your approach to anything is beside the point, as I've mentioned several times my concern is communication, and the issue st...

Did an advanced search for 'fifth dimension' posted by Posibility and read several posts from various topics. Fifth dimension is affected. I happen to...

If it were I wouldn’t have mentioned it.

To Sever & Protect?

You’ve repeatedly shown that I can’t explain anything to you. I’ll read about it though.

Someone who remains willfully ignorant about a concept like metaphysics is called a troglodyte. And are you suggesting that you deliberately obfuscate...

This is a public gesture, Frank. You don't say anything about taking a break for reasons not directly related. Lie to yourself all you want. I don't l...

Unless posts were deleted or are located somewhere else I don't see the baiting.

A case for that can't be made, assuming the baiting posts involved were in the systematic racism topic. What am I missing?

The gesture would seem much nobler if the high principled would at least wait for someone a bit better than Chester to be banned. Shouldn't have to wa...

I remember learning that around three million children die of malnutrition each year and thinking, ‘how did I not know that? how does everyone not kno...

If we must consult the dictionary, it means a more emotional or forcible response than is justified. Justified means having, done for, or marked by a ...

Fortunately for you then, a lack of self-awareness doesn't violate the Term of Service.

I think there are pretty clear lines where lawful police force ends and brutality begins. There are also legal lines that appear to be designed to sus...

Sure, do whatever you have to in order to understand science, philosophy, and religion better, but again, if you want to be understood, learn the mean...

To be fair, you are Irish, right?

I don't see how it can be said to be an overreaction then. Particularly since the situation doesn't seem to be improving. In fact, we seem to be slidi...

That's just plain favoritism. :razz:

No.

Trolling is deriving amusement, or perhaps in some cases rubles, from riling up an unsuspecting audience. Good hooks are anything that questions a per...

Poor wording on my part. Please allow me to rephrase. You appear to evaluate this to be an overreaction to the incalculable suffering caused by system...

I think it would be sufficient if you simply learned what most understand metaphysics to be and consequently used the word appropriately so as not to ...

You evaluate that this is worse (an unjustified reaction) than the years of systematic racism and the incalculable suffering that it has caused now sy...

Not to worry, it will trickle down to the lower classes like rain from heaven.

There are reactions and there is justice. Yes, they should not get confused. Maybe it would simplify things if you explain what you mean by the riots ...

I believe that people riot to demand justice, not to dispense it. You're the one claiming an "overreaction." This means that you believe the rioting i...

Unfortunately, this is not true. It may be true for anyone who reads this topic but it's definitely not true everywhere. Also, claiming an "overreacti...

Whatever, it was just a suggestion that would help to avoid misunderstandings when you say things like 'metaphysics was banished from philosophical di...

You sure, because it isn’t leftist stupidity that’s turning his own party against him. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5w7kwtLJtVc https://m.youtube.com...

Facebook makes good decisions?

Lol, as if anyone needed this peek so see the obvious.

There's the moral issue of objectifying women.

I guess it depends at least in part on how good she is at virtual sex, as well as how good virtual sex is, for that matter.

To help avoid potential confusion in the future, I suggest that you consider contrasting materialism with idealism and try not to think of metaphysics...

The point about the economy is that a downturn was inevitable. It only takes the slightest prick to deflate a balloon. A wide range of things could do...

Sweden isn’t even close to herd immunity. And what, if there were no lock-downs people would dutifully go to work and continue being good consumers, r...

If I might butt in for a sec. It's unclear what you mean by 'spiritualism' but it's odd that you believe metaphysics has been banished from philosophi...

Do they dock your rubles for going off-script? I think you’re supposed to say that ‘blue lives matter’. Anyway, indeed, change isn’t always easy, espe...

Could he be a worse leader and bigger asshole?
