You are making the positive claim that existence exists outside of our mind. The onus of proof is on you.

2019-02-13 02:19:31 UTC  

Because existence has to be focused on

2019-02-13 02:20:23 UTC  

Awareness is not a passive but active state, when you close your eyes does everything vanish metaphysically

2019-02-13 02:21:08 UTC  

Knowledge is what makes possible the discovery of fallibility.

2019-02-13 02:24:13 UTC  

Would something you perceive in a dream exist as much as something you perceive while awake?

2019-02-13 02:24:33 UTC  

No, because it does not consist with reality

2019-02-13 02:24:49 UTC  

How do you know you are awake?

2019-02-13 02:25:56 UTC  

Through introspection and checking the facts of reality

2019-02-13 02:26:58 UTC  

Would you be able to know when you are dreaming?

2019-02-13 02:27:04 UTC  

Non contradictory identification

2019-02-13 02:27:19 UTC  

I dont dream much if I do I dont remember it

2019-02-13 02:28:08 UTC  

Some acid wouldn't be a bad idea for you.

2019-02-13 02:28:25 UTC  

Open the doors of perception, bruh.

2019-02-13 02:29:18 UTC  

There's a difference between someone on drugs and someone off drugs

2019-02-13 02:30:17 UTC  

Life is a trip, bruh. Don't forget to bring a towel.

2019-02-13 02:37:38 UTC  

@halfthink You should pick up Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology if you have already read the novels

2019-02-13 02:38:32 UTC  

I haven't read the novels, only a bunch of excerpts from her philosophical writting.

2019-02-13 02:38:55 UTC  

Atlas is great

2019-02-13 02:39:06 UTC  

So is The Fountainhead

2019-02-13 02:39:33 UTC  

I don't like what little I've read of Rand, and particularly don't like objectivists.

2019-02-13 02:40:09 UTC  

I wouldnt pin Objectivists on Rand as a lot of them are evasive and misunderstand her work

2019-02-13 02:40:26 UTC  

They are more mixed than Objectivists

2019-02-13 02:40:32 UTC  

Just as everyone misunderstands marx.

2019-02-13 02:41:23 UTC  

Well Marx is misunderstood

2019-02-13 02:41:35 UTC  

He's incoherent.

2019-02-13 02:41:45 UTC  

That might be why

2019-02-13 02:42:30 UTC  

Read the first few chapters of Human Action if you want to understand where I'm coming from.

2019-02-13 02:42:40 UTC  

Okay

2019-02-13 02:42:45 UTC  

Mostly deals with epistemology.

2019-02-13 02:50:49 UTC  

Even if you dont want to read the Rand. Id highly recommend picking up Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology if you want to see how full of shit everyone is and learn to integrate

I checked the channel and immediately thought it's just halfthink being a retard and everything being ancap vs libertarian self-destruction.

2019-02-13 02:56:15 UTC  

Then I saw: "Well Marx is misunderstood"

2019-02-13 02:57:41 UTC  

@whiic He is though

Alex Jones is the best waifu

2019-02-13 03:00:39 UTC  

**NIGGERS**

2019-02-13 03:01:12 UTC  

Just reminding why the left wing is hella cancer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFlMoAasW4A

2019-02-13 03:01:47 UTC  

Left bashing is just annoying at this point

2019-02-13 03:03:03 UTC  

Annoying or not, it's our duty. Preferably with a large rock or sledgehammer.
