But I do not necessarily see it as 'your responsibility' to back up and support 'your very own statements, views, judgments, beliefs, and/or claims, at all, but others certainly might, for very good reasons. I, however and instead, just question you to see whether you can and will actually back up and support your statements, views, judgments, beliefs, and/or claims, or not. And, the answer to this is fairly obvious by now.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 amAgain, I think this is the kind of thing you need to mull over and not see as other people's responsibility to explain to you.
Talk about attempting to twist things around, absolutely, in order for this one to try to 'justify' not being able to just back up and support its very own beliefs and claims here.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am You give the burden of your weaknesses and interests to other people as their burden of proof.
To this one, "iwannaplato" not clarifying nor justifying its own positions and beliefs here is all because of 'my supposed weaknesses'.
Look "iwannaplato", I already claimed that what you said can, literally, be taken literally, and be able to be proved absolutely so.
Talk about trying to twist 'the blame' for it just not clarifying or not supporting what it claims here, turning 'the blame' onto 'me', and then trying to 'now' claim that it is 'me' who is somehow not 'taking responsibility' for some weakness that I supposedly have here.
To me, a huge weakness, especially so in a philosophy forum, is believing that one can just freely express their views or beliefs, and then believe that it does not have to back them up and support them in any way at all, and if absolutely anyone even just asks them to, then it the 'other one' who has some imagined, and alluded to only, 'weakness'.
Talk about another example of attempts of pure deception by this one. But, this was the common practice of one who believes that it has power and control over 'others'.
'What', exactly, needs more work.
Obviously, 'this' does need a lot more work. But, you allude to so many possible things, without actually saying what they are.
you, once more, do not know what the word 'problem' means nor refers to, exactly, in the way that actually works, so I am left, once again, what you mean, exactly.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am Now if you feel the urge to universalize my reaction to you here this is an example of the problem.
Talk about hypocrisy at the highest level.
Even when I explained, exactly, why what this one said was not meant to be taken literally, but could actually be taken literally, this one is still missing 'the actual context' of what 'my question', which it quoted here, is in relation to, exactly.
I would not say that to everyone also. But so what, and, who cares?Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am I would not say that to everyone: it is not a rule for online discussion forum behavior.
This one seems to still not yet be able to understand that I have already shown how what it said could be taken literally, and that this is why I asked 'the question', 'Why should what you said and wrote here not be taken literally?'Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am It is a good question for you to ask, but not to get someone else to give you a verbal answer, but as an area of knowledge you have a weakness in and that you need to explore, and mostly in face to face life with people, perhaps supported by works of the type I have suggested elsewhere.
This one here still seems to believe that what it said could not be taken literally, and so it still seems somewhat in bewilderment that I would ask such as 'the question' that I did here. It seems to be missing context after context in our discussions.
What this one also actually does here is allude to things, like, 'you "age" are poor at context', but very rarely ever gets around to saying nor explaining in relation to 'what', exactly.
And, this, as will come-to-light is because what the actual context, which it perceives, I am poor at recognizing and/or understanding is usually not what my words and questions are even in relation to, exactly. What this one keeps missing here is that it keeps missing the actual context that I am referring and/or alluding to, exactly.
Now, this one could keep presuming and believing that I am missing 'the context' in regards to what it is saying and meaning, but completely misses the Fact that just maybe I saw and recognized 'that context' from the instant I saw and read its words, but then just move on, forward, to highlight and show other things to the readers here.
So, to this one 'now', 'part of the reason people think it is possible that I am a 'bot' is, supposedly, because 'not that much of my communication is repetition and requests for repetition'.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 amNot that much of your commmunication is repetition and requests for repetition (when you remember that people have said things). This is part of the reason people think it is possible you are a bot.This in your view, judgment, and belief, correct?
Which, 'we' have already agreed upon and accepted could be Wrong and/or Incorrect, correct?
Or, is it, once again, that it is me who is 'poor' at context and 'need' to mull over this, as well?
LOL So, because I replied to a sentence, then, to this one anyway, what this means, absolutely, is that I lack patience.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 amDo you see how much you lack patience. The very next sentence addresses this issue,Yes, because 'body language' is really, really important when the only thing to look at and/or hear are words alone, right?
Why do you not stop and think for a while, or 'mull over things', as some would suggest. Did you not consider, even for a second, that I could have deleted that clarifying question, once I read your next sentence?
I left that sentence there, on purpose.
Do you lack patience and this is why you are not 'mulling over things' here, before you respond?
It is like you want to be the "teacher", and expect everyone just accepts what you have to say and believe what you believe, while 'I' am not worthy of questioning nor challenging you over what you say, believe, and write here.
Oh, and by the way, if you waited to read my reply to your 'very next sentence' instead of being 'so impatient', then you would have seen that I have already addressed the issue that you addressed. As, I instinctively knew 'it', and 'this', was coming anyway.
Why do you take so much 'to heart', as some of you would say here, "iwannaplato?
Also, I was never so-called 'critical' here. Why did you once again presume and believe things about 'me', which were not even in thought, let alone said nor presented?
Which, can only be seen, and 'read', by the 'words' alone here. As I just said and showed.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 amIwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 8:54 am While the last is not present online, understanding that words are the tip of the iceberg is so easily grasped when one understands body language.No, words are not the whole iceberg here. Sentences, previous interactions, thread titles and focii, what is not written about and more.But words are the 'whole iceberg', as some would say and point out here, when words are all 'we' have, exactly like what 'we' have here, in this forum.
So, this one still believes absolutely, because it previously was believing, absolutely, that 'body language' is a great way to understand that words are the tip of the so-called 'ice', 'now', and that 'this' belief and claim is actually even true here, where only words alone are presented and can be 'read'.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am Body language, as I said, is a great way to understand that words are the tip of the ice and this is true even here.
It is like this one actually, believes, absolutely, that human bodies with non functioning eyes are not able to understand, at all, that 'words are the tip of the ice'. (Whatever that is actually meant to be fully meaning, anyway).
It might even now start claiming that it cannot explain what it actually means here, fully, because here it can only use words, alone, and/or that only when one is looking at 'that body', then they could understand what it is fully saying and meaning here.
The GUTOE can be and will be written in 'words alone', and this will provide a full explanation, which includes the full meaning, of all-there-is. It will also be illustrating, drawing, painting, or showing the full Picture of all-there-is, or the 'whole iceberg' if you like "iwannaplato", crystal clearly too.
Well to those who do not have the belief that words, alone, cannot explain and show the full and actual Truth of things to you human beings anyway.
So, how does this relate to your claim above here?
Well one who did try to argue this, really, has really not looked to deep, yet.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am Sure, one could argue that we are just atoms in some complex pattern.
Yes, arguing for a position, view, or belief and "yourselves", before one obtained the full and accurate knowledge about human beings would hardly come to understand you human beings 'that way'.
But you human beings are no more complex than language nor even the most simplest things in the Universe. And, to think or believe that you are, further shows just how egotistical you human beings can be.
Really?Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am but your ridiculous focus on each word is doomed to failure because you are so clueless about context, even the context of online communication.
And, here it is "iwannaplato" who talks about 'body language' is needed to understand something, which it just made up. It is also "iwannaplato" who cannot 'see' nor 'read' the context of what I have even been saying, showing, and pointing out here. But, it is 'me', again, who is supposedly the 'clueless' one, here.
But they do not, necessarily, 'have to, but they, certainly, can. Or, more correctly, a word itself's meaning does not change, but the meaning you individual human beings individually 'give' meaning, can certainly change. Thus, why I sometimes ask clarifying questions here.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am I strongly recommend you look up the philosophy of internal relations. A word's meaning changes from one sentence to the next, from one specific interation to another.
In case some were not yet aware why I do it so regularly.
Well it was you who just provided the actual reason why knowing 'the definition' one 'has' or 'giving' a word at any particular moment is very, very useful.
If you human beings really do want to come to understand 'each other', and thus ultimately "yourselves", then this is not going to happen by just pre-assuming what 'the other' is saying and meaning. Which by the way is why there is so much squabbling, bickering, 'arguing', fighting, warring, even killing among you adult human beings, in the days when this is being written.
When you come understand what 'the other' is actually meaning, and not just presuming nor believing you do, then this when real understanding can come about, and from True understanding, then 'the whole world', as some might say here, can be shifted, turned around, and even 'turned on its head, as some might also say here, and then the opposite of warring, fighting, and bickering can really Truly start 'to begin'.
Why do you presume or believe that I do not yet fully understand you others, already, let alone presuming or believing that I do not even have the ability to understand you human beings?Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 am But until you learn about context your communication and ability to understand others will be very limited.
Do you have any actual bases for this presumption or beliefs of yours, besides of course other than just your own pre-existing presumptions or beliefs here?
But I never, ever took your words literally because of some presumed belief of yours 'weakness in communication skills that I supposedly have'. I took your words literally, for the very reasons that I have already explained, to you.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 amObviously they could be, but were they taken literally because you have a weakness in communication skills?Okay, if you say so.
But what you have said, and written, here still stands for all to look at, and see. And, if you want to believe that your words here could not be taken literally, then all is well and good.
Did you 'see' the explanation, 'read' it, 'take' it 'into context', and 'understand' it, properly and Correctly, Iwannaplato"?
Or, do you have some sort of 'weakness in communication skills', which is what has allowed you to miss 'the context' of things here, once again?
Once again, you ask a question, posed as a clarifying question, even put a question mark on the end of it, but then instantly answer 'your own question' 'your own self'. If you think a 'rhetorical skill set' will work here for you, then okay, please consider. But, to me, you are just exposing your 'currently' held onto beliefs and presumptions, only.
Which, you may well now claim that this is another example of a 'poor reader', of being 'poor at context', or of being a 'weak communicator', without you ever considering that actually you have completely and utterly missed the very reasons why 'your words' could be, literally, again taken literally.
By the way, if I did not already know, exactly, the very reason why I took your words literally, then I would have something, at least, possible 'to consider' here. But, since I do already know, exactly, why I can take your words, in 'that sentence', literally, all is done here. Which at no point you seem to have considered possible here.
Now, you could choose to reconsider things here, and just take an actual 'look over' our discussion here, and at other places, as 'see' if actually it is 'your very own' 'poor reading', 'poor communicating', and 'poor comprehending and understanding' skills, which has been more of an issue here, than your perceived 'it is the others flaws' here belief here.
Which is, of course, up to you.
This one is so sure of "itself" 'now' that it is even starting to believe that it knows, absolutely, what my iq level is.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 amSee, you really don't understand context. I did way what I meant, but determining what someone means includes noticing context. Others would have, you didn't. We all miss context sometimes, but you have a more severe deficit with it than most, certainly at your IQ level.One day you might start saying and writing here what you actually mean.
Talk about only 'seeing the things', that align with what one is already believing is true. you here "iwannaplato" could not be providing me with a better example of 'confirmation bias' at work, for me to use as direct and prime examples and proof.
Now, you claim, 'See, you really do not understand context'. Have you ever, ever considered that, just maybe, I can see and understand 'the context' but speak and write here to make it appear as I do not, so that you end up saying and writing things that I might want you to? See, how you also do not provide any actual proof of what you actually meant and/or the actual context, and also not provide any actual proof of how I, supposedly, really did not see 'context'? you just say and claim I do not, and then expect everyone else to believe you. Just like a "teachers" and "preachers" do.
Also, if you really did write what you meant, then why was it you who said and wrote: There are many clues in there that this should not be taken literally.?
It seems very hypocritical and/or contradictory to say 'this' as well as say and claim that you did write what you meant. But, then again, you may have, once more, taken out of context what I was saying and meaning, and/or just thought I meant something else, again. Or, you might have just missed what was actually happening and occurring here, this time as well.
To be able to determine what I mean in my words here better from now on "iwannaplato" you will have to notice 'the context', also.
Others would have noticed it here, but you obviously did not, right?
Oh, and by the way, sometimes when one 'sees' the 'weaknesses' or 'deficits', which they say are 'in others', sometimes what can happen is 'a mirror' is being held up to them, unawares, and the 'severe deficiency' that they are 'looking at' and 'seeing', which they actually think or believe is 'in the other' is really more so 'in them'.
But, let 'us' wait, and see.
Unless, of course, you still believe, and so just want to 'look at', all of the 'weaknesses', 'flaws', 'deficiency', and 'severe deficiency' is all 'in me', and so are all 'mine' only.
Which, if you do, then I am very more than willing, and wanting. to.
In regards to 'what', exactly? Or, just in regards to everything?Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:30 amYou can try to be right.But, until then, and maybe contrary to what you 'currently' believe is true, some of your words above here could, literally, be taken literally, and also be actually proved irrefutably True, as well.
Those words, however, as you just pointed out are not necessarily the ones you believe could be.
I know I can defend what I write and say here. And, as I continually also say and claim here, I LOVE being questioned and challenged over all of what I say and write here.
I just keep waiting, patiently, for those who are Truly interested in doing so.
But you do not 'try to' blame 'me', you just do it, right "iwannaplato"?
Also, let 'us' 'now' consider what I 'try to' blame 'you' here for, exactly?
Oh, that is right, you said and claimed that; 'There were many clues in what you said that should not be taken literally', and I more or less just said, that your words, literally, could be taken literally, because I could prove them actually irrefutably True.
Now, I wonder what I have been, supposedly, 'trying to' blame 'you' here for, exactly?
Of course I have a deficit. And, the actual clue for the actual deficit, which I knew I had before I even came into this forum, and which I know I still have, is written within the sentence, 'I am here to learn how to communicate better with you human beings'. The actual and irrefutable answer is written 'withing the words', themselves, or 'between the lines', as some might say here, now.
In fact the actual meaningful answers, and solutions, to a lot of what I have been alluding to, and pointing out, here can be 'read, between the lines', again as some might literally 'work out', and be thinking here 'now'.
But already done.
'We' just wait for you to 'see', if you can see and recognize your own deficits here. That is; if, to you, you have any, or any that you think would need looking at, and over, anyway.
My absolute and irrefutable deficit here I have been very, very clear about, from the outset, and which I have proven absolutely True, hitherto up to this point of, literally, 'these words' and 'this writing'.
