No Jake. The “every day” element is a silly excuse. It is absurd to claim certainty of something and ridicule those who even withold a position, and then go on to talk seriously and passionately about things that would require the thing you are certain about to not be the case. You are clearly not that certain if “every day life” pressures you…[Read more]

doesn’t the fact that people can resist acting upon desires, even innate desires, indicate that some form of Volition does exist after all?

Actually, Unseen is certain that there is no such thing as free will. So, in effect, choice, volition, decision etc are totally meaningless. If you could not have done but what you did…then moral r…[Read more]

Why would we want to fuck up all of that good work by adopting a policy of “respect” and “understanding” towards would-be child molesters?

Enco you don’t think logically through many of the things you say. You are a would-be rapist. You have the potential to rape. Men in fact rape women FAR more than women rape men. Would it make sense for women t…[Read more]

America did shit all militarily as Ukraine has been ravaged. It fucked up in the former Yugoslavia. America’s adventures in Iraq also led to an extreme increase of Jihaddist terrorism in Europe. I fail to see how for a god damn second how America is “protecting” Europe. Enco, you are so f***ing deluded sometimes, you are incapable of seeing past…[Read more]

Nothing like Joe Rogan to be part of a reliable source of information. Climate change is already disastrous in many quarters of the world and it is insane to claim otherwise. This ranges from now nearly uninhabitable island nations (rehoming an entire nation classifies as a disaster), tap water so toxic it sets on fire, numerous species going…[Read more]

So here is Enco rationalising limits to freedom of expression (mostly reasonable ones I think) and yet doesn’t seem to have a problem with not limiting free speech when those words contribute towards inequality, terrible suffering of the marginalised and the brutal consequences of radical hate speech. Nice. Clearly it means: limits for things that…[Read more]

If you’re travelling with the Wilburys then I’d imagine you’d be going to the end of the line.

I think Jake’s right. It has to be a psychosis. How could you possibly function in the real world with that sort of scramble in your head?

“Probably not on this forum for much longer, though. If I had to place bets, it feels like the banz hammer is immanent.”

Or you could simply walk out of the door, the same way you came in.
We tend to reserve banning for people who are unable to process the information that they might not be wanted. The kind of people with no sel…[Read more]

or let you down, really. Principally because he doesn’t exist, but also other reasons.
