@ZeteticV3 The chair is just the basic classroom example btw. Broadly speaking, when we look at anything at all in this world, how is it possible to know what it is?
@ZeteticV3 Ok metaphysics 101. Try and answer these questions: what is a chair? How do you know something is a chair? How can a giant bean bag and an office chair on wheels both be the same thing? What occurs in the human mind where we see each of those things and know that both are chairs?
@guyfelicella I love recovery. We get to live and enjoy life as other people do. And it's available to us all. Your problem Guy, is that you are constantly shilling the stupidest libtard bullshit and it's insufferable. I'd still give you a hug though. But I don't even want to see your posts.
@ZeteticV3 Yes space is a metaphysical concept. So is literally everything we experience as human beings. But any epistemological critique that "debunks" the factuality modern cosmology for you is present 1000-fold in your own utterly retarded flat earth cosmology.
@MFerguson1337@Tablesalt13 By setting interest rates the BoC essentially controls the issuance of credit by private banks, plenty of which goes to purchase bonds. They are the mechanism which increases the money supply. Govt borrowing is always inflationary. And that's not even counting QE.
@peterrhague@worstall So in the case of war it is a different thing to impose legal standards upon the defeated nation after the fact. If the allies recognized any legitimate lawful authority of Germany to govern itself or the occupied states they couldn't have attacked them in the first place.
@peterrhague@worstall By the standards of the countries hosting the trials it was illegal all along, and to be in a state of declared open warfare is to be actively challenging the jurisdictional authority of the nation you are fighting, hence all the bombing.
@identitykrysis If thats the case, why not let every Canadian choose for themselves instead of banning American products through legislation you ignorant self centered fuck
@BreeAlta@LichTamara What if the army came and rolled through the convoy tianeman square style and crushed most of them to death with tanks. Would you have absolutely agreed with that? If not please explain the difference, in terms of civil rights, between one and the other. I'm genuinely asking.
@Bellrules@LichTamara So if the same illegal and authoritarian practices were used to target people promoting a political cause that you supported you would have no problem with that either?
