That's certainly allowed. Happy holidays!

What's the essay you're referring to?

Children are (rightly) dedicated to play (they're the ultimate aesthetes). When adults take it too seriously, it can be dangerous. philarchive.org/rec/BLAPA-12

Goodbye? I wasn't trying to be rude. I was just trying to explain why I (apparently) misinterpreted the title of your book.

Ironically, you're implying that it's those of us who are Covid conscious that are in a cult!
December 25, 2025 at 8:29 PM
That rings true. However, the members of the cult are not themselves liars; they're in denial.
December 25, 2025 at 8:27 PM
Sorry if I made an unjustified leap there. But isn't it encouraged by the presence of the word "lying" in the title?
December 25, 2025 at 8:08 PM
Since you clearly don't think it's due to denial and/or incompetence, what do you think is the motivation?

Blue books = denial.

You're working with the wrong philosophy of language. Check out Charles Taylor's The Language Animal (2016).

Rawls was (literally) not a serious thinker.

I am, I really am. Very much so. But you're a pink bunny.

In what sense do I base my argument on being "an anesthetic"? I don't understand. And who, and in what positions, do you think I failed to talk with? Jewish historians? Pro Hamas protestors? I don't follow.

Could you give me an example of what you mean?

While I very much appreciate your efforts, this post ultimately serves only to feed antisemitism. Here's why: open.substack.com/pub/charlesb...
