I'm here to learn/discuss as much as I can. Philosophy, politics, economics, and technology.

@mattyglesias Can KM explain what constitutes as "wasteful spending"? What makes spending wasteful? And if he is asking Biden's conscience wouldn't that mean he is appealing to what Biden is thinking/feeling?

@Hyde_Michael98 @aufgehendeRest I think listing Korsgaard is better than listing kant.. because you are taking a stance on who brings kant into the 20th, 21st century. What's the best way to think of kant today.

I would have picked safer choices like Arendt or Rawls.. but korsgaard is way more orthodox kant.

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@aufgehendeRest @Hyde_Michael98 Kant is listed as Korsgaard, no?

@aufgehendeRest Moshe is the son of maimon. Moshe ben maimon. So I'm guessing it's maimonides father who is to praise. I don't think the Rambam would mind that.

@lakerdaddy50 @Wolfiesmom So what exactly is the $8 per month getting you?

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@existentialcoms The socialists believed in solidarity, they believed that the people can lead the way. But when they need leaders to implement the system and lord over it. Then you just have a new caste of rulers.. who need to manage it.. and will easily be overwhelmed or prone to self interest.

@archaeologyart Shouldn't there be a 1000 years more of Roman emperors? Didn't the Roman empire end in 1453?

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@euthyphro Never understood plato's notions of the relative form of the tall and the short.. seemed kinda silly. Was that brilliant and I was too dumb to get it?

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@SteveSchmidtSES @4lisaguerrero Huh, his name is literally "Cope land"

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@mattyglesias Chicago --> blues/jazz ?

@Cellularlinks @ezraklein What harm could his tax returns do to him, if he is a bankrupt sham, thats not gonna make him lose his base. His base was with him all the way from his first blatantly racist day.

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@ezraklein Are we living over the last 4 years in that south park episode where cartman* gets millions in inheritance and buys himself an amusement park?

In this case cartmen is trump, kyle are liberals

@mattyglesias Did Columbus really believe the earth was pear shaped with a nipple at the top? Did Columbus sail the Atlantic sea cause he stupidly thought the size of earth was many times smaller than it actually is?

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@ErrorTheorist Not sure that will be enough to rescue Atlantic City's economy 😥

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@AJentleson @NateSilver538 Wasn't McConnell at odds with Trump sporadically throughout '16, with Trump revying up attacks on McConnell after the October surprise? Did the public spat between them ever matter?

[StevenS @TrusbsSteven]

@leesharon59 @OB4292 @goodreads I no read. Until newspeak version available.
