where would you put the comma to fix that?

but this is what I’m saying. perhaps it’s possible to have life from other elements, but carbon-based life simply dominates it to a degree that it doesn’t survive

the logic here is extremely iffy

is there a known reason carbon is so scarce on earth compared to the rest of the solar system?

by augustulus 3y ago
it could be that carbon-based life somehow pre-empts x-based life when carbon exists in the environment, even if there’s more of x

Despite your plethora of deeply hypocritical accusations, I’m going to cut this down to the central tenet Who are you accusing? What are you accusing them of? Why do you think they’re being dishonest? Next time you say something, remember t

whether or not your accusation directly refers to GP is irrelevant if you read your own quote, it says “lying or lied to ”. I included the “lied to” because I knew you would try and sneak out of it like this, and yet you did it anyway beca

my friend, anyone can come to these conclusions by reading your literal words: >capitalism is not the simple proposition that profit justifies anything, even if some people sometimes suggest that it is >in order to advance their agend

some people learn to justify their opinions. some people learn to bluster and accuse and talk about how many articles they’ve written are you denying that you claimed this form of capitalism doesn’t prioritise profit above all else? are you

by augustulus 3y ago
you don’t have to justify your assertions to me or anyone else, but make sure you can justify them to yourself. have a think about what you said and see how deeply you can support it. you don’t have to reply. you don’t even have to bluster

by augustulus 3y ago
do you have a counter-argument? because what I’m reading here is “you’re wrong and lying or lied to because of an ‘agenda’” and that’s it what do you think GP or someone who has lied to GP really thinks? why are they lying? what’s their age

this is all true, but what is the better system? Communism has its merits, but it’s extremely reliant on competent, benevolent leadership and struggles to be economically viable in an American-dominated world. I think that a Keynesian, well

besides the fact that you’re essentially running on a platform of “make crime illegal”, you run into the obvious problem of who decides what a lie is? who decides whether a lie has taken place?

here’s your argument: “the BBC doesn’t focus on my genre enough therefore the entire thing is bad, but it’s especially bad because I’m convinced that I’m required to pay it to watch any relevant TV (also I think they’re politically biased

at what point did I accuse you of lying? I pointed out that you (probably accidentally) accused me of lying, if that’s what you’re confused by? or do you mean that I accused you of being confidently wrong? being wrong isn’t lying does the f

what I don’t understand is why people say things that they don’t know are true. you can’t know this is true, because it isn’t. next time the tv license people send you a letter, actually read it

>quasi-communist I must have been asleep the day paying for things became communist. the BBC has the same payment model as netflix, except you pay yearly instead of monthly, and it’s done on an honour system instead of at the door. total

writing and acting are basically all that matter. acting is reliant on direction, so the idea that the direction is bad is out. writing is also massively influenced by the broadcaster, special effects are irrelevant if you’re not a child, a

as usual the stock market is to blame. in the 100 years or so it’s existed, the BBC has never really had a sustained drop in content quality, and yet its model is somehow taboo

surely it’s healthier to be aware that anxiety largely doesn’t come from within, but from the enclosure of the zoo that most of us live in. the alternative is to think it’s your fault

my analysis of my own experiences is that weed smoothens your emotions. the lows are higher and the highs are lower. but then again, I’ve never dealt with major anxiety beyond a few brief stints however, I would be extremely shocked if ciga
