“From the undeniable acceptance-the axiomatic status-of this apriori of argumentation, two equally necessary conclusions follow. First, it follows from the apriori of argumentation when there is no rational solution to the problem of conflict arising from the existence of scarcity. Suppose in my earlier scenario of Crusoe and Friday that Friday were not the name of a man but of a...

Your angry and defensive stance
Only tells me that you’re afraid I’m right. If you ask why I’m vegan, I’m going to tell you why (I think it’s wrong to take another life for the sake of my eating and life style preferences). Of course eating whatever I wanted would be easier, and, of course, not thinking about where my clothing and cosmetics came from would be much easier. But it is because I hold...

Our goal is to end animal cruelty, speciesism, racism, and sexism, really...

Welcome to FOX News. Where we call children “Bastards” and “Dorks”
You know what they say, if you don’t have an argument, make fun of them and call them names. This is high school all over again, just on a much larger and more dangerous scale.

It always amazes me how averse people are to eating a “hotdog” made out of tofu and seasonings, yet are so eager to eat a hotdog made from multiple pigs’ assholes.

Gallup Poll: Tea Party just as large as America's...
poorrichardsnews:
The Washington Post and others this week published articles about the diminishing size of the tea party movement. WaPo bemoaned the tea party’s “outsized” influence in Congress and pointed to a recent New York Times poll that showed 18% “support” nationwide for the Tea Party. But what does that number really mean? For more perspective, let’s look at a Gallup Poll from this...

There’s a study running soon in the journal Global Environmental Change called “Cool dudes: The denial of climate change among conservative white males in the United States.” It analyzes poll and survey data from the last 10 years and finds that … are you sitting down? … conservative white men are far more likely to deny the...
