as for those other definitions, yes, they are arbitrary. However, they work and are the best we have. You can't really have a definition there that isn't arbitrary.

"look at all these globeheads reassuring eachother on there religion"

2019-10-30 16:20:48 UTC  

u think GE is a religion?

2019-10-30 16:21:01 UTC  

guess its a valid assumtion from FE pov

2019-10-30 16:21:23 UTC  

notice I put quote marks

2019-10-30 16:21:34 UTC  

truther

2019-10-30 16:21:36 UTC  

😛

2019-10-30 16:21:47 UTC  

i somewhat view that as negative

2019-10-30 16:22:09 UTC  

but its meaning being a sceptic here right?

2019-10-30 16:23:29 UTC  

they never give a consisnent deffinition

2019-10-30 16:24:03 UTC  

the most common usage I've seen is one that values truth

2019-10-30 16:24:18 UTC  

so I use it because that's the deffinition they gave

2019-10-30 16:24:47 UTC  

then they get mad that I use the lable

2019-10-30 16:25:35 UTC  

annother deffinition I've seen is simply someone who values truth and believes conspiracy theories

2019-10-30 16:26:08 UTC  

Wich is odd because those 2 are unrelated so it's wierd

2019-10-30 16:27:28 UTC  

not really

2019-10-30 16:27:59 UTC  

they don't imply each other nor do they contradict each other

2019-10-30 16:28:10 UTC  

So.its odd to have it included as one

2019-10-30 16:30:34 UTC  

how would it be of I had a word that means someone that likes steak and lives in Alaska
and I call that word Alaskan

2019-10-30 16:30:49 UTC  

Morning u globies =)

2019-10-30 16:31:14 UTC  

Afternoon then =)

2019-10-30 16:32:03 UTC  

Ye

2019-10-30 16:33:02 UTC  

I've had.someone define truther as someone who believes in the truth of flat Earth and (insert conspiracy theory)

Well in that case I don't believe any truthers exist

2019-10-30 16:34:30 UTC  

saying X believes in the truth of Y

implies Y is true to begin with

and if I don't believe Y then I don't believe the statement

2019-10-30 16:35:06 UTC  

modus tolens

2019-10-30 16:35:34 UTC  

depends upon evidence for each

2019-10-30 16:36:21 UTC  

evidence for what

2019-10-30 16:36:41 UTC  
2019-10-30 16:36:53 UTC  

either

2019-10-30 16:37:31 UTC  

you can believe A because Y said it, but if researched the evidence shows B to be correct you then go with B, k

2019-10-30 16:38:04 UTC  

that's not what's going on here

2019-10-30 16:38:18 UTC  

it is

2019-10-30 16:38:38 UTC  

Most start with believeing A

2019-10-30 16:38:47 UTC  

because we;'re told dont question

2019-10-30 16:38:50 UTC  

dont think

2019-10-30 16:39:01 UTC  

then when we wake up we find the evidence is for Y

2019-10-30 16:39:06 UTC  

I've been told to think entire life

2019-10-30 16:39:33 UTC  

thats because your old

2019-10-30 16:39:39 UTC  

You don't know what's going on here
