Well you did ignore me a bunch of times. Now you just can't help yourself engaging.Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 7:23 pm Yeah, it sure pisses me off and definitely I think that you're capable of undermining things I write. This is all very plausible. Keep it going.
Even though I don't contribute anything valuable. I guess you just love wasting your time?

Right, because originally I was trying to post "seriously" with you. You're a waste of time for that.Skepdick wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 7:24 pmWell you did ignore me a bunch of times.Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 7:23 pm Yeah, it sure pisses me off and definitely I think that you're capable of undermining things I write.

It's just that the board is so friggin' slow. I'm doing stuff on the computer where I don't want to constantly focus on it. It's kind of tedious stuff that I like to take regular breaks from.Now you just can't help yourself engaging.
It's frustrating to me that boards like this are so slow/that so few people post on them. I miss the good old days when IRC Undernet #philosophy was really active. For some reason chat in general really died out about 15 years ago.

The medium just changed. Everyone is on Discord/Slack now.Terrapin Station wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 7:30 pm It's frustrating to me that boards like this are so slow/that so few people post on them.

Same idea - different gift-wrapping.

Thanks. I don't recall hearing about that before. I'll check it out.Skepdick wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 7:32 pmThe medium just changed.

Re: is/ought, final answer
Haha--that didn't take long. It appears I've been banned from the philosophy channels on discord already. They have some pretty ridiculous moderation. All it took was me expressing that I'm a free speech absolutist and that in my opinion, people who are offended by a word like "transgenderism" (which someone else brought up in a discussion about it) should work on not being offendable instead. And then I mentioned that a lot of what people consider "harms" I do not, hence I do not base anything in my ethics on that overly broad term, and I said that a lot of what people consider harassment is something I have no problem with. The fact that that was enough to goad a moderator into banning me is rather frightening in terms of its social implications for freedom of expression/freedom of ideas (and the implications those sorts of draconian, intolerant attitudes can have for other social actions).Skepdick wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 7:32 pmThe medium just changed.

At any rate, if that's all it takes to be banned there, there was no way I would have lasted long regardless of the topic or the moderator(s) hanging around. I'd be bound to offend some control freak moderator's sensibilities daily if I chatted enough (as in more than a 10-20 minutes at a stretch).
