Does cogito ergo sum explains conscience?

@Eduard I think that's deeper than physical consciousness

Physical?

@ThePangburn If you need help setting up Discord for streaming, shoot me a DM

I've got the words... but in the end we are perusing semantics... plus I'm not very well read on the subject... so I dont want to talk out of my ass... cause that's easy...

The best way to learn crital thinking skills is to listen to those people who speak in such a way as to demonstrate those skills.

Skepticism and a step back is required...

My professor made me take notes... on paper... and tell what I wrote... in many cases I understood nothing like what I heard... therefore.. listening is essential...

@brittm whats "SJW"? asking for a friend

But I've seen people triggered by trigger words... the world unfortunately is a massive marketing furnace... that's why stepping back is necessary... the things are made to trigger us...

and absolutely critical thinking skills can be taught

There are many other ways to fight social justice... I dont think shouting does any good to anyone...

@Eduard do you know about ibram kendi?

Nope
