@reedpopper No more than you
my sides
why was i added here
To be bullied by me
are you the leader of your local chess club
I'm the leader of this server.
is this the first time you ever led anything
@Firefly Is just my alter ego :^)
Is this the first time you've been served in short order?
what
nigga are you having a stroke
Immaterial doesn't mean nonexistant
That is such fucking retardation
I don't know who taught you that but he should kill himself
give me an example of something immaterial
Concepts
You cannot experience concepts. Yet they exist in some fashion.
What is thought it not material also
Mathematics is an example
Numbers don't stop existing because you can't *feel* them
maths is based on existing measurements of physical things
They have a relation with materials
But they are not material themselves
they do lmao, they only exist bc we use them to designate concrete things
They measure materials, but they themselves are not material
It is a concept
oh my god
You're braindead
the dichotomy you talk about does not exist
do you realize that symbols are as material as the other concrete things they designate
It doesn't exist because you've been hopped up on theoretical writings rather than common sense
Symbols transcribed into material
ask any man on the street and they'll tell you that numbers are things written on a paper or a computer lmao
how's that not common sense
If you make a symbol out of materials, then that symbol is then represented in a material form
Ultimately the very concept or thought of the symbol lies not in the material world
The text formed on your screen is material

materialist philosophy: talks about physical material in the world we are experiencing, eg something that is real
immaterial philosophy: talks about concepts about things that do not actually exist in the world like God or other imaginary probabilities
