Why not just ignore as if he isn't even there, every such post receiving zero acknowledgement. Easy enough to do, but most people don't do it. The thread can then continue until it liquidates on its own.Lacewing wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 6:54 pm Uh oh, Age has arrived to bombard this thread with his usual projections and excessive critiques and corrections about what he imagines about everyone and what they say, while proclaiming his superior insight based on his distortions and projections.

I do ignore his posts (as do most people). But I've noticed that his style of posts (as I described) have brought some threads to a halt. And this one was just getting started.Dubious wrote: ↑Sun Feb 12, 2023 12:56 amWhy not just ignore as if he isn't even there, every such post receiving zero acknowledgement.

I didn't say it's okay for him to do as he does, did I! If I thought that why would I say to simply ignore him? It's the usual-prescribed solution to something which has no merit. Not being moderators, it's not possible to do anything directly about it except to ignore and that's all I meant to say. Even if not completely effective it can still keep the momentum of a worthwhile thread going. It was just an impersonal generic statement accusing no one of anything. I don't know what made you so upset. It's amazing how often people mentally metabolize a simple straight-forward thought into the opposite of what is meant. I always considered you above that kind of thing, so ubiquitous among many. I guess I was wrong.Lacewing wrote: ↑Sun Feb 12, 2023 2:05 amI do ignore his posts (as do most people).

Why do you imagine that it's okay for him to do as he does, and we're all supposed to ignore it? But you imagine I should not comment on such a thing, and you do not ignore me doing so?
Why are you imagining me as 'so upset'? Of course I'm aware of the ignore function. I felt like pointing out that he was about to sink another thread.Dubious wrote: ↑Sun Feb 12, 2023 2:43 amI didn't say it's okay for him to do as he does, did I!

I understand that! I was explicitly pointing out it didn't need to happen! Why let an idiot ruin a good thread? Ignore function or not, best to ignore the extraneous noise of a disordered mind and remain reasonably on track with the OP. That's all, nothing more to say, goodbye!Lacewing wrote: ↑Sun Feb 12, 2023 2:54 amWhy are you imagining me as 'so upset'? Of course I'm aware of the ignore function.

Whether or not it needs to happen, it still happens. That's my point.
Why let idiots ruin anything that they ruin?
Sometimes people prefer to walk away from things instead of trying to ignore them. So, moving on...Goodbye.
AND ONCE AGAIN we have "lacewing" making CLAIMS and ACCUSATIONS WITHOUT ABSOLUTELY ANY PROOF or even ANY EVIDENCE AT ALL PROVIDED.Lacewing wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 6:54 pm Uh oh, Age has arrived to bombard this thread with his usual projections and excessive critiques and corrections about what he imagines about everyone and what they say, while proclaiming his superior insight based on his distortions and projections.

LOL you say you WANT TO and even CLAIM to have put me on your ignore list, but you just can NOT help "yourself" as you HAVE TO LOOK AT and READ what I SAY and WRITE here.Lacewing wrote: ↑Sun Feb 12, 2023 2:05 amI do ignore his posts (as do most people).Dubious wrote: ↑Sun Feb 12, 2023 12:56 amWhy not just ignore as if he isn't even there, every such post receiving zero acknowledgement.

WOW I KNEW 'I' HAD CONTROL OVER 'you', but are you SURE 'I' have this MUCH CONTROL?
There is NOTHING Wrong with HALTING the False, Wrong, and Incorrect BELIEF that BELIEF IS NECESSARY for human beings, BEFORE 'it' is SPREAD and BELIEVED TRUE.
LOL
Instead of a discussion on the merits, or demerits, of the article in question ‘Humans the Believing Animals’ which I critiqued in a post: Mon. 2/13, 4:21 pm, there are instead arguments arising here between those who post, that are not relative to the article in question; to its merits or demerits.Age wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 6:04 amLOL
Even when people are ON each "others side" like "dubious is, or was, the "other" STILL can MISINTERPRET, and become "obnoxious", as CLEARLY SHOWN here above.
Happens all the time. The secret is in not giving a crap what anyone thinks, just posting as one sees it...or as Porky Pig would say "That's all folks!"Age wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 6:04 amLOL

Are you here suggesting that some one posted some things that were not relative to the article mentioned above?owl of Minerva wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 1:41 pmInstead of a discussion on the merits, or demerits, of the article in question ‘Humans the Believing Animals’ which I critiqued in a post: Mon. 2/13, 4:21 pm, there are instead arguments arising here between those who post, that are not relative to the article in question; to its merits or demerits.
Is what you just posted here related to the topic title and the article in question? Or, is it just another form of disruption?owl of Minerva wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 1:41 pm This is disappointing. It appears that people who have no interested in philosophy, whatsoever, are posting here because they have nothing else to do, or they enjoy being disrupters. As in social media in general it is a problem.
If you would like to have a so-called philosophical discussion' about the believing animal, that 'you', adult human beings are, then what does a 'philosophical discussion' entail, to you, EXACTLY?owl of Minerva wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 1:41 pm It requires monitors to disrupt the disrupters, otherwise those who are interested in philosophical discussion, not in cat fights, must look for alternate venues.
Look, that 'you', adult human beings, in the days when this is being written are so-called 'believing animals' is IRREFUTABLE. FULL STOP.owl of Minerva wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 1:41 pm As philosophy’s popularity or relevance, is not great, its venues, unfortunately, are few.
