Official: Post a Picture of Yourself

I wonder how Dawkins would feel if he knew he was a hero of the nazi underworld?

Actually, Dawkins wasn’t around back then in Miners Mills. Nor, for that matter, was James Bond. And the productions were of a whole different kind.

Back then, they revolved around the manner in which kids were all the more indoctrinated to view the world around them as others insisted it was. The new productions deconstruct that. They suggest a paradigm that folks like you are particularly averse to.

But: how about phoneutria? How averse to the new productions is she?

On the other hand, I don’t have Becky around anymore to tell me.

Yeah but you weren’t going on about genes and memes either. Because Dawkins came up with that.

As per usual, you miss the point entirely.

That part as an extra if you grew a pair? Forget it. I’m giving it to one of the Stooges now. Larry I suspect.

You know, when he grows a pair. :sunglasses:

These are the lengths you are willing to go to not to acknowledge where your objectivist theory comes from?

It comes from Dawkins, lad.

I know how sensitive you all are (objectivists) at having it pointed out to you that your theories about reality are only one among many and come from a person.

You dirty nazi.

I go to the length the role calls for. Up to but not including directing, acting or scripting the scene.

Or, here, the post.

[size=50]Also, if you are going to play the straight man in our routine, I’ll need better lines to bounce off of.[/size]

So? You didn’t get it from Dawkins?

It is simply an objective truth?

You know, objectively true for everybody, as it were?

Come on iam. Let’s bring this sucker down from the skyhooks.

I’m sorry but even in the meta-theater we need a context. Dawkins may be in the production but no one can point to him as the director or the actor or the playwright. Let alone as embodying them objectively.

Least of all as “the star”.

Becky once created this script in the yahoo group Existlist – groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/existlist/info – in which “Dawkins” was member.

Selfish genes and socialist memes as it were. And I was the “star”.

Unfortunately I just found out that yahoo groups will soon be defunct. You used to be able to click on them and at the bottom of the page was a year to year collection of every single post!

I was going to go back to around 2004 - 2006 and show you an example of how it worked.

The context is: Dawkins wrote the book where the gene meme paradigm is postulated.

You refer to them as though objective truth.

And so I asked “do you all nazis read anything other than Dawkins.”

So. Where did you get the genes/memes idea?

No, that’s your context. All I’m trying to do here is what Julian and Becky and I tried to do in our “productions”: to encompass individual reactions to particular contexts as the subjective, existential embodiment of dasein. Both genes and memes are intertwined in that. Instead, it comes down to emphasis. Folks like Satyr are really, really big on genes. Others, like the “blank slate” crowd, are really, really big on memes.

“Them” in what context? What can be differentiated in that context as the objective truth from a subjective opinion?

What particular Nazis in what particular context? How might Dawkins take on genes and memes be examined there? In regard to, say, the Final Solution. The extent to which Nazis can ground it in the objective truth rather than the ideological bent of Hitler. And, then: how were Hitler’s views of the Jews rooted subjectively in dasein, given the existential trajectory of his own life experiences?

Truth be told, I don’t remember the exact moment when it first came to my attention. But that’s true for all of us. We pick up on things over the course of years over the course of countless experiences. We think things today that we have only the vaguest understanding of how we first came to think it.

[b]Now, once again, in this routine, you’re up.

And what you will no doubt do is ignore 90% of the points I raised here. Instead, you will focus in on one thing and ask another “general question”.

Either that or something along the lines of “You dirty Commie Nazi asshole!”

Or, most excruciating of all, you will shoot for “clever”.[/b]

Or, sure, let’s just end the “routine” here and now.

If for no other reason this is the “post a picture of yourself” thread. And, truth be told, I don’t even know how to do that.

Care to continue this in another thread, in the philosophy forum? ilovephilosophy.com/viewtop … 1#p2784791

Or, sure, if you’d prefer to name call and go to the gutters, we can do it in the rant section. :sunglasses:

You got it!

After all, I’ve been after you for weeks now to go here:

And this:

Picture

Different Photo

Lots of people talk shit about me; lots of people hate me, but, they’ve never sat down with me and had a drink with me. I’m a really nice person.

When you see my photos, it gives you a slightly clearer vision, but not complete.

Those are the eyes of someone who has been sent to hell by everyone for no reason at all, and slowly crawled my way back one person at a time, and holds no grudge.

let me guess

Did I nail it or did I nail it?

I’d say you nailed it…

Very reflective of his own words… and I did try not to laugh
at your analogous video, but I failed. : (
