yet id bet they wouldnt bother with background checking politicians for ties to the same forces they pretend to "rally the people" against, its pathetic watching the charade and responsibility shifting really

Again you dodge to another party

really? because I thought we were talking about the need for background checks...

This has nothing to do with politicians

I’m talking about legislation regarding gun control

and thats fine but at the end of the day its just paper with fancy writing on it made by elitists that probably care about their paychecks and power more than they do children's well being unequivocally

legitimized by threat of force upon non complicance like the protection racket it really truly is

What does that have to do with what I’m talking about

What warped sense of linear logic do you think your pulling off

my point is I dont see it wise to put my well being and the well being of people I love into the hands of laws that can be changed and amended to suit the aims of those that would see them dead... and you shouldn't either

besides the fact that values etc do way more to influence people and things more than one would imagine... scared me at first but im not even surprised at all anymore

So you believe that words do more than words

since when are intentionalistically held values merely words?

When you tell somebody your values are they not words

And also what are laws except written values

in the functional sense yes, but insofar as them being quantum probabilities (which exist as energy waveforms, as they have been proven to be by empirical science) id think not...

From what I can see I doubt you understand the idea of wave functions (also because in this context it doesn’t make any sense here since this about ethics and not physics ) but I’ll bite

you dont have to, I guess its just my opinion but if the quantum world precipitated the physical world and not the other way around it would make sense of a lot more than people are willing to to say the least

why do your arguments always turn into this retarded bullshit

You do realize that the “quantum world” is within the physical world

highly unlikely that this experiment concludes an imminent universal origin but as good of a presupposition as yours

Also I do agree that this metaphysics shit is pretty.... well shit

@ThatPreciseBloke the “quantum world” is literally the smallest **physical** thing

yes where "reality" as we understand it practically ceases to exist; "why" is the question

It doesn’t cease to exist

never said it did, but the interference pattern made by electrons as the default actions on part of those actions suggests that matter acts as a wave (energy) as supposed to particulates (matter)

If you define reality as Newtonian physics then I have some pretty bad news for ya

not purely but go on...

If you’re not defining it like that then why say “where ‘reality’ as we understand it practically ceases to exist;”

because by any sort of empirical observation "reality" is (at first glance) an unmoving continuum as defined by natural and/plus universal law, which includes ones that define physical processes...

It’s almost like observing the world at a macro level doesn’t give you an in-depth view of how things really work

Next you’re gonna say reality breaks down at the cellular level because of the Krebs Cycle

nice presupposition but id think im at least smart enough to not know cells are x^100 number of times bigger than anything quantum or even atomic (and thus from a material POV, already were "probabilized" into existance, at the quantum level) but k den

Combine that witht the fact that the universe ostensibly originated from a very very small point and you have no less than a definitive, scientifically backed idealism

This

This is amazing

im sure it is 🙃
