@CapitalismMag @_Billy_Beck_ @OPARAynRand Billy, look at all those capitalised words, he's fuckin' got you, mate! 😅

@_Billy_Beck_ I saw just "No one -- Objectivist or otherw..." in my phone's notifications, and fucking *knew* this was going to be about Danneskjöld.

Also, you said "no one", is that really no one apart from you, out of everyone you've ever encountered?

@_Billy_Beck_ "German jazz band"

That's pretty fucking good.

[Daniel Walvin @DanielWalvin]

@_Billy_Beck_ Dammit, I initially thought so but I hedged! It's gonna be the death of me, I tell ya... 😅

[Daniel Walvin @DanielWalvin]

@_Billy_Beck_ Yes. Which brother, and are you the taller of the two?

[Daniel Walvin @DanielWalvin]

@_Billy_Beck_ Nice. I got there consciously when I was 9 or 10 (as consciously as a 9 or 10-year-old can), but who's counting, right? 😉 (Plus I didn't have a religious family upbringing — school vaguely tried to make us religious with their morning assemblies but it was too little too late)

@_Billy_Beck_ No his mind is not for rent
To any God or government...

@_Billy_Beck_ Over-abstraction, an error that may or may not be honest.

The most dangerous thing in the world is bad philosophy.

The second is work that looks like it's been done properly, but hasn't.

Be careful, y'all, and Merry Christmas.

@Koestghost "It should be illegal" and "It is totally fine" being the only two poll options is a pretty concise encapsulation of so much of what's wrong with the world.

[Daniel Walvin @DanielWalvin]

@Chris_D_Brewer Yes. Optimism is a good and important mental tool, but putting a narrative behind it implying that consciousness directly alters reality is an irrational (woo-woo) way to unlock it, and so necessarily leads to harm long-term, in spite of the short- to medium-term value it brings.

@Koestghost My "balanced, realistic, and rational perspective" is that Petolicchio is a pussy who's too afraid to come to a firm conclusion.

[Daniel Walvin @DanielWalvin]

@Koestghost Was it a dress rehearsal back then, or not quite yet?

[Daniel Walvin @DanielWalvin]

@Koestghost @TRHLofficial Thanks; by "woke" not being a respectable target of opposition, is that because it's not a precise concept — i.e. isn't a concept — or for some other reason?

[Daniel Walvin @DanielWalvin]

@Koestghost @TRHLofficial What's an "opp-target"?

[Daniel Walvin @DanielWalvin]

@Koestghost 1913.

@Koestghost Right-wing collectivism.
