  1. I don't agree, and don't see evidence of what you claim, quite the contrary. I'm a California Dem who voted for Trump. He's bringing people from diverse positions together, and won South Texas, a solid Blue area for over 100 years. You are incorrect.

  2. Nihilism is a poor position to argue from, both sides will disagree with you, and only losers will support you.

  3.  @ThuDude1  Elon doesn't care about being "right" in the sense you describe. Neither does Trump. They DO things, not just SAY things, and are not so self-absorbed they work toward the other side being wrong. Pragmatist don't work that way. The prime group attracted to Trump this go round are pragmatists. I'm encouraged by that. Imagine all the hate thrown at Trump, the actions of the DOJ and even an assassination, yet he stands and serves. That's what I see, right in my face.

  4. Yes, for some, "meaning" may be a Sadist who finds fulfillment through that "meaning". Careful what you wish for. The pursuit of "meaning" has had bad outcomes here in California.

  8.  @LordHaragnok  It wasn't put up because he was a slave owner, but a Founder, one of the writers of the Declaration of Independence, that trump's his ambivalence at being a slave owner.

  14. The new PM of Canada agrees with you and will be aligning with Trump's economic and Populist views. Things already looking up for 2025.

  15. Here in California K-12 has been self-actualizing "meaning" for more than 30 years. To paraphrase "careful what you wish for", CAREFUL WHAT YOU SELF-ACTUALIZE. Not all humans should pursue and express what is meaningful to them. We are not "social constructs" and some are born Sadists. Just saying.

  19.  @mattlist213  A 19th-century statue of Thomas Jefferson that's been in New York City Hall for more than century was removed from the City Council chambers Monday, weeks after officials voted unanimously to banish the statue because of the former president's history as a enslaver.

  20.  @LordHaragnok  Sculpture conservator Joshua Craine completes the cleanup of the Abigail Adams statue at the Boston Women’s Memorial on Commonwealth Avenue Mall. (Robin Lubbock/WBUR) 2020 BLM protests. John and Abigail Adams were not slave owners, did not allow slaves to work at WH when they served there.

  22. John doesn't understand he is two or three standard deviations beyond the average persons understanding and capacity for what he means by "meaning". We are not all the same. There's a Pareto distribution for "meaning". I asked Jordan Peterson that question and never got an answer.

  24.  @mepulley7913  "hate and grievances"? I didn't hear or see that, "Make America Great Again" was about love and unification. You may laugh or think I'm being sarcastic, but the Trump dance to "YMCA" was fun, it was the Dems who campaigned on ancient hates and grievances of social justice, not Trump.

  28. When science, a methodology for exploration and discovery, is framed in by ideology, we all lose. SA have moved away from the scientific method, and now endorses a religion, full of myth and doctrinal belief.

  29. A highly recommended book on the impact of printing on 17th-century Europe is "The Printing Revolution in Early Modern Europe" by Elizabeth L. Eisenstein. This influential work explores how the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century transformed European society, culture, and intellectual life during the subsequent centuries, including the 17th century. Eisenstein's research delves into the profound changes brought about by the dissemination of printed materials, such as books, pamphlets, and newspapers, and how these developments influenced religious, political, and scientific thought. Her book is considered a seminal work in the field of print culture and offers valuable insights into the complex ways in which printing technology shaped Europe during the 17th century and beyond. It's a well-written and comprehensive study that will provide you with a deep understanding of the subject.

  30. Pierre Poilievre will be the next PM of Canada and will make a great partner with Trump, they share similar views of economics and populism. That alone will bring great change to North America.

  31. JD Vance did not flatter him by calling him Hitler. Marco Rubio didn't flatter him by publishing a website with all his bankruptcies, RFK Jr certainly was not a Trump "flatterer". I believed what you believed, but no more. Trump is a pragmatist, first and foremost, wants anyone who can perform competently and do the job. He's only flattered by does and winners. Look at Pierre Poilievre, the next PM of Canada, also a populist pragmatist. They will get along well. The EU is also moving toward a more pragmatic system, Germany especially. Serving "big business", no, the Socialist/Academics were doing that, attempting to steal the means of production for themselves. Trump will deregulate and free business from the socialist ideologues.

  33. He's already brought change, as he did the first time, you are too blind to see it. His election has influenced Canada and the EU to move to the center/populist position and we've seen changes here in California, just passed Prop36 and fired Soros backed DA Gascon. More to come.

  37. Yes, most know that "one fire" did not destroy the great libraries, and the decline took centuries, while Greek and Roman texts were of great interest to Islam, they came under attack by religious authorities which led to persecutions like that of Ibn Rushd. His philosophical views, which often challenged traditional Islamic theological interpretations, made him a target for religious orthodoxy. Roman and Greek text were eventually deemed heretical and suppressed, leading to a further decline in the great library. A modern tour would be somewhat biased, don't you think?

  38.  @born5601  Then it's not a functional model for those who cannot perceive or utilize it. It's the Platonic Philosopher's Lie, the Gnostic hearsay of special knowledge, the monarchists nobles oblige and the post-Modernist credential called "Education". I agree a meta-Framework or "model" is useful, but the devil is in the details.

  39. Trump has already delivered change, not just in America, but in Canada, the EU, and the Middle-East.

  40. Eric, not that tough, Marx said the bourgeois will repeat history so history must be destroyed. Orwell understood it to mean "“Those who control the present, control the past and those who control the past control the future.”. Kamala's father taught a form of Marxist economics, but it's also something she would have learned at her HBC, that Capitalism exacerbates inequality and the government's role is to redistribute that wealth. I don't believe she has a clue what that means in practice, and hasn't the ability to put any of those policies into action.
