  1. He's kinda the antichrist of Capitalism, which disturbingly, for a MAGA, is kinda Marxist. Discuss. Bing Videos
  2. Indeed, it's a square peg in a round hole that required a certain amount of cognitive dissonance. I think Stephen Fry was correct in what he said, "The rise of the right is the lefts fault, bc we'd rather be right than effective". Which is kind of Orwellian, but more Animal Farm...
  3. It's only valid bc everything has something to do with quantum, but that's not the same as understanding anything about quantum... 🙄 We, by which I mean the royal variety, don't understand either; what makes you think your guesswork is helping to fill anyone's gap of knowledge and understanding? As @Eise has pointed out, these question's have been thoroughly thought about by, for want of a better word, professional's throughout the age's; guessing has no value other than a spurious ego boost, if you're nearly correct.
  4. Well, that was the point of my joke.
  5. Don't we all? We all tend to adopt almost everthing, from the dominant culture, bc it's cool...
  6. Good joke 'ish'... 🙄 But I was asking @swansont
  7. What should I be focused on?
  8. Same tactic, ignore the point you don't understand... That's entirely possible...
  9. I'm not trying too, that's a French thing...
  10. My point is, you think you're ism is superior with nothing more than an empty assertion, the very definition of banging you're head against a brick wall... 😉
  11. I think you've missed the point of an 'ism'...
  12. Even more repellent, why would the English adopt a French word? It should be flushed down the loo...
  13. As always the fundamental question is, who's going to pay? The liberal's just want us all to pay 'our' bit towards 'our' advance, and the conservative's think they've already paid enough, with their blood, sweat and tears. The old industrious mouse parable and why it's missunderstood...
  14. Inflation exists bc we all insist that growth is essential and then we all make bets and the house wins, until it doesn't... 😉
  15. It's not even significant, education... Some things are better left unsaid, for example "being down and out in London and Paris"
  16. The modern world, eh, we all need each other but no one wants to pay the taxes... 🙄
  17. Science is a product of philosophy, in fact I think it could be argued that science has become anti-philosophy (edit. which is just another philosophical POV). Philosophy is just a way of thinking, that seeks to eliminate our own biased perception's in order to seek the truth of humanity, science seeks to eliminate humanity from the equation.
  18. Which direction, is correct???
  19. The liberal's are the people that accept they're human and have little understanding of those who ask, bloody stupid question's;"We'd rather be right, than effective"...
  20. The perception of wealth depends on many thing's, not least of which is our relative comfort; we're willing to accept hardships, so long as that guy does too...
  21. Maimonides, Aquinas, Spinoza etc. do you question their philosophical credential's? You're conflating the student and the teacher, theologies object of study is the bible, which contains a god, but is widely assumed to be written by people...
  22. Lest we forget, has been forgotten and replaced with the latest iteration of the Hitler youth, that are now pentioners...
  23. What makes you think it's not ? For a very large number of years, it's been a very effective and practicle philosophy for large swathes of the populous in every society on earth; what do you consider theology to be? Indeed, we all need a little magic from time too time. 😉
  24. Is there a number you'd be happy to validate???
  25. That too has it's nuances, which is worth remembering... 😉
