  1. But dude, we know that already. We know exactly who all these Trump acolytes are. They never cared about a Nazi salutes or language. This is the least of our problems now.
  2. I get your position. It's not unreasonable. In the end we gotta pick some perspective to settle on. You picked yours, I picked mine. We'll see who was right in 30 years.
  3. I have heard enough of these ecological people talk their utopian fantasies that I don't want to hear any more. These people have no serious vision of human civilization. These are hippie socialist eco-peasants and their ideas will fail. Meta-crisis-group-think is what that is.
  4. Dangerous or not it will be done. Just because you are so risk averse does not mean your plans will work. Yes it is dangerous, but nukes are more dangerous and we have gotten this far. Your thinking is too short-term. The repair will take 100-200 years. And that is fine. Does mankind have something better to do? You got somewhere to be? We will burn oil for another 100 years. Then we will be developed enough to move onto something clean and repair the damage over the next 200 years. That's our situation. So buckle in.
  5. Only because you click on that kind of content. I have never seen one anti-woman video in my YT.
  6. Dude, lay this canard to rest. Inflation is not high. It is at normal levels. The economy is as good as it will get. It's downhill from here. You don't even know how good you had it.
  7. Self-hosting video is not a thing.
  8. He's not a Nazi, he's just an immature megalomaniacal oligarch drunk on power and ego.
  9. I know. They usually respond much faster.
  10. If you don't enjoy a field, you will not be successful in it. Frankly, I don't see that you are serious enough to land a philosophy professorship. These are extremely competitive jobs even for the most outstanding doctoral students. Either you get extremely serious about it, or you pursue something less competitive. I don't want to discourage your passions, but you also need to be very realistic about how competitive academic positions are or you will waste 8 years of your life chasing a fantasy and be left broke and jobless in the end. To be a philosophy professor you need to have some genuine talent and skill for heavy philosophical research. It's kinda like chess. To play chess professionally and make a living off it requires hardcore-mode.
  11. Sent email to Vimeo. Waiting on them to fix it.
  12. We're not going to explain to you why Trump is bad. It's your responsibility to do the research at this late stage in the game. Take responsibility for your own education. There are dozens of YT channels explaining all the problems of Trump.
  13. I have been waiting on Vimeo to fix it. I just sent them another email. It should be fixed soon. They are dragging their feet. Sorry for the delay.
  14. I disagree. I think most of it can be reversed. CO2 can be removed from the atmosphere. Sunlight can be blocked from reaching the Earth. Climate can be controlled and manipulated to suit mankind. Forests can easily be regrown. Animals can be cloned and farmed. Fisheries can be rebuilt. Corals can be regrown. Ice sheets are a little harder, but mankind can adapt to that. I wouldn't even assume collapse. Climate change does not have to mean collapse. Society will adapt. These predictions of collapse are highly speculative. So I suggest inventing solutions for a non-collapsed world because as of now that collapse is a fantasy.

  16. A baboon comes into the world inherently less intelligent than a human. So a neo-Nazi will just point to that. You assume that all humans are equal but a neo-Nazi rejects that assumption.
  17. I will update my book list with lots of political books. But they are not directly about Nazism or racism.
  18. Of course. Only a young immature fool can find that worldview reasonable. Did you watch my video from last week? I gave you a blueprint for how to understand that Nazism is a low perspective. That's all your best points of argument. You could literally write a book deconstructing Nazism from that one video. That's the power of these teachings.
  19. I posted it a long time ago. Search the blog via google.
