Can we just officially close this section already?

Well, wait till you see him post them.

Thenā€¦ wait till he does again.

And again.

And again.

And again.

And again.

And fucking againā€¦

With no variation.

Like a souless factory automated line, reproducing the same drivel without change.

Iā€™m dead serious, very good chance he is a Alice Bot, a attempt by Microsoft to make a sentient artificial debaterā€¦ one they stopped funding but forgot to turn off, left to wander the wastelands of the internet saying Daseinā€¦ Daseinā€¦ Daseinā€¦ a virus without sentience, proclaing a authentic vision of consciousness.

Fewer concepts are more ironic and fucked up than this. Donā€™t tell me God doesnā€™t have a twisted sense of humorā€¦ as Satyr Knows :wink:

Reminds me of this cartoon.

Have you ever seen the cognitive explanations for how that shit is supposed to work. It is some of the most bizarre stuff Iā€™ve seenā€¦ Iā€™ve seen a lot over the years, it is when you see people explain the neurology of it to people who donā€™t get it, itā€™s like WTF. Is that supposed to be the brain of a cow or bat or dolphin or some shit? Not human.

Some floating around on Reddit like sites, explaining it to the unenlighted. Everyone starts calling bullshit, but they refuse to give in and just say they donā€™t get it.

Maybe they didnā€™t draw the shit with vibrant enough colored crayons, donā€™t know what they think is the reason nobody gets the explanations they offer for how Dasein works. Not my first stroll around for a theory on how cognition works.

Ah, yes, the mature and superior philosophers who aim to reduce the discussion of philosophy down to, say, one line at a time.

Indeed, and never in the same post.

In other words, a Kid. :wink:

Iambigous, I find it fascinating that somehow you have managed to now redefine maturity as word count.

This is already more than one line. So that in and of itself disqualifies him as mature and serious philosopher. Right, One Liner?

Thanks, Turd. That allows me to segue to this: viewtopic.php?f=25&t=189516

Feel free, One Liner, to contribute. You know, one line at a time. :laughing:

I donā€™t capitalize it. Satyr and Turd do. And I am quick to point out that, pertaining to the overwhelming preponderance of human interactions, dasein [as I understand it] is not in the least bit relevant.

Indeed, and going back [so far] to the Big Bang. Or [perhaps] going all the way back to Turdā€™s rendition of God.

He is a Catholic, right Turd?

On the other hand, of late, Satyr does not appear to know much at all. Or, if he does, he does not appear interested in sharing it with folks at KT. His lectures are now down to a trickle. In fact, he hasnā€™t posted anything in days.

Summer vacation perhaps?


Note to others:

Why is it that ā€“ sooner or later ā€“ I manage to reduce the particularly feckless objectivists [of Satyrā€™s ilk] down to intellectual glop like this?

They bitch and they moan about the lack of mature and serious philosophy here but what they seem particularly in a huff and a puff about is that others refuse to think about, say, everything in exactly the same manner as they do.

And by everything I mean this: anything.

Go ahead, One Liner, engage Turd in a discussion. Respond substantively [if only one line at a time] to one of his threads.

Let us peruse the predictable result when you actually dare to suggest that he is wrong about something.

And by something I mean this: anything.

In fact, I challenge you!

Iambiguous, I am my own authentic/inauthentic person and always strive to treat others in the same manner (politics is of no interest to me).

Dude, just accept your a Objectivist and move on. Iā€™m certain he more than likely called you one by now. Everyone except AImbigious is a Objectivist, even when he is one (which is usually the case). You will always be in the wrong. He will always be the underdog proving himself right to his adoring audience, whoever the fuck they are.

Ultimately, everyone becomes an objectivist (even if they donā€™t believe it themselves).

Not me, only Dasein, 100% of the way.

Being-there, done that.

Objectivists: Like shooting turds in a barrel.

Hmmā€¦

Maybe itā€™s time to lock this one, Carleas. :wink:

Iambiguous, why are you so full of contempt?

We should just lock Turd and Iambiguous in a steel cage letting them fight it out to the death already.

Sounds like a good idea to me but who is going to take on the winner?

And to think that all I ever really wanted is for Turd to admit that he is in way over his head when the discussion shifts from Nihilism as an intellectual contraption to nihilism as ā€œfor all practical purposesā€ an actual thing ā€“ reflected in the behaviors that we choose ā€“ here on the ground.

Instead, ā€œdown hereā€ I thumped him time and again.

And now [as with Satyr] his only recourse is to make me ā€œdisappearā€ from his life. That way he doesnā€™t have to be troubled by the points I raise at all.

And, sure, I have to admit itā€™s a pretty effective strategy. =D>

I have come to the conclusion that there is a lot of dick swinging here at ILP.

Is he saying dasein, dasein, dasein again? Just ignore him, half the site has him on ignore, for never making coherent, meaningful statements. I honestly doubt if he exists, or is just a copy & paste preprogrammed Alice Bot saying meaningless drivel in response to questions he isnā€™t capable of understanding in response. A lot of huffing and puffing on his part. Ask Satyr, he knows. :wink:

It wasnā€™t a statement directly targeted at Mr Big but instead was a generalized observation about the behaviour on ILP.

As long as Iā€™m not a intended end target, Iā€™m okay with it.

You here that fuckers Iā€™m not a dick swinger. Iā€™m better than that shit. Donā€™t you wish you were humble like me?
