Do intentions not matter?
So a drug-addled billionaire stealing the USA to further his own ego trip towards world dominance should be treated the same as a poor homeless mother stealing a loaf of bread to feed her children? They both display overt stealing behaviour after all.
“In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.” - Martin Luther King Jr.
You seem to be committed to the dogma that only "things" are "real", - that non-physical equates to non-thing.
Empirical knowledge comes from the whole of experience, not just from immediate sense-data of the physical objects around us.
As William James said, science is not empirical enough.
Why assume all forms of existence are subject to "empirical slicing"? Phenomenological entities aren't. Nor are any other non physical entities.
Quine says the ontological problem can be asked thus: What exists?
And answered thus:
Everything.
You must let go of Positivism before examining Being.
The Daily Heil is always patriotic.

Brilliant.
Kinda silly to think foreign governments need an app to undermine the US when you can just buy the president.

It appears that ketamine gives you the same sense of "listen to me because I'm a genius" (whilst everyone else can see that you're a deranged fuckwit) that many other drugs do.
Elon Musk is proof that all the money in the world doesn't make you any less of a fucked-up Trumpmonkey.

Makes you wonder how Siri or Alexa will handle classroom behaviour.
The billionaires know full well there's a Climate Emergency. They'd just rather hang onto their wealth than let humanity hang onto their planet.

Marc Andreessen breaks down the concept of "The Deal." In the past, there was an understanding in society: a tech founder would start a company, create jobs, get rich, pay taxes, then donate their money to philanthropy - all with the support of the press. In the last 10 years, every part of "The Deal" was broken; money became evil, tech became evil, and philanthropy began to be seen as evil. INE EREE ON AIR ESS Tone. It was great And then you go public 囗x
By “free speech” they meant “make it illegal to dislike me”
“Americans are being buried under an avalanche of misinformation enabling the abuse of power. The free press is crumbling. Editors are disappearing. Social media is giving up on fact-checking. The truth is smothered by lies told for power and profit”

We are officially living out the part of the history books that makes school kids ask, “why didn’t anyone do anything to stop this?”
How does he plan to do this? By giving Putin huge chunks of Ukraine and legitimising his claims to Crimea?
What a deal.

The Tory press has always preferred paedophile princes to black people.
Day 1809 of #Brexit: ‘When lower-income families’ tendency to spend more on necessities and less on luxuries is factored in, German families are 21% or £2,300 a year better off than their UK equivalents and the gap with Dutch families is even wider, at 39%.’ www.theguardian.com/business/202...
Mmm... Not all great thinkers are "he".
That gets you another follower. ✌
Who'll be playing his victims I wonder? Or will the film just ignore the more sordid facets of his biography?
I guess we'll have to wait and see...
