I think you are reproducing in your own words the exact point the author was trying to make

He calls his position on animal welfare “extremist”. That’s hardly a smuggling. And anyways I found his linked blog post pretty thought provoking, even though I hold a different po…

What in that blog made you write him off? I also clicked through and found very thoughtful writing on the topic, though I still disagree with their position as I understand it.

I…I think there are no humans in that thread. Maybe only sinan-can-demir.

They’re rolling out the experiment flag I’m guessing. I get walled too.

Because, if you don't take it off, "you" will cease to exist and instead gradually become the rich and much beloved appendage of an earring. The entire story is about the definitio…

Imaginary numbers are purely theoretical, but they turn out very helpful in almost every engineering discipline

I certainly don't understand all you're saying through this tortured analogy, but yes an "army" of judges that issue rulings is much, much better than an army of soldiers that issu…

That analogy doesn't work well. Their situation involved foreign powers enforcing jurisdiction and property claims over their land with a regular standing army; a completely differ…
