bahahahaha
So, once I returned home from the surgical operation, my microwave decided to catch fire, and my A/C decided to give out. π
I'm what?
No worries; I repaired both in about an hour.
Alive and well in this channel.
Why would I not be
Don't analyze it too much.
How's your day unfolding, my friend?
@Boop / λΈν / C'thUwU, freedom of speech has been around for some time. π
I'm working rn, you?
I'm just going over some financial spreadsheets, brewing some more coffee and catching up on my lack of cancer in-take for the past 6 hours.
What do you have going on over there, as it relates to your occupation?
Time to roll out the guillotine
"liberal" "democrats"
This whole anti-Brexit (i.e. anti-democracy) thing should be made unconstitutional
What a waste of tax dollars
Sorry, pounds

The interbred, more of a Marxist cast, @Xaverius. I'd argue for their dropping of "liberal," given they're nothing akin to Locke.
I hear Kafka is spinning in his grave
Sure
You?
Of course.
Radical?
Only to the extent by which entities must be restricted from infringing upon it. I'd consider myself radically anti-collectivist.
I'm very much on board with that
Morally radical individualism, pragmatically eh, gotta roll with the punches
I thought you would be, given your past remarks. You seemed to advocate for individualism in our previous discussion, which my reflections are modeled to serve that model. So, I'd consider myself a Classical Liberal, who has adopted Objectivist philosophy along my journey.
I'm sure you're familiar with Ayn Rand.
Indeed, ET. Pragmatism is a necessity to prevent an accidental subversion of your intent.
I'm somewhat familiar with Ayn Rand's objectivism, although I don't fully subscribe to it
Thus, that's where you can find yourself in conflict with the isms.
I believe a distinction between idea and reality should be made, because survival and utopia are two different battlefields
Correct.
There's the war for heaven, and there's the war against hell, which I believe is not the same thing
Why do men abandon their principles so easily when they face hell, but hold them up when they see heaven in their reach?
Especially true in the fields of economics, when both egalitarian and utilitarian values are best served by leaving the individual to their own devices.
Well, the Milgram Experiment might have a lot to say about that, ETBrooD. But, that is a rather broad question.
