im not dodging the question i just dont think i will be answering it.
Something doesn’t have to be real for you to have the experience of having perceived it
Phantom phone buzzing
Hearing someone call your name when it’s just normal ambient noise
You experience it even if it only happened cognitively
its less cerebral and more... idk... appealing to the part of the brain that enjoys mythology and the monomyth and good stories
i wouldnt compare it directly to the more abstract stuff
No, he straight up refuses to read even a Wikipedia article. I'm not asking him to learn everything. But a short source is not too much to ask
Ethics is cool but meta ethics is way cooler

He's actually proven he won't read the article. He got one linked, read the first paragraph that makes an assertion that's rejected in the second paragraph, then comes in here saying "yeah, Wikipedia says I'm right because it made this assertion!" He actually refuses to put in any effort
When people refuse to understand that better goods and worse evils can exist i get upset
Is it because you have no formal education on any of these topics and are too fucking lazy to read anything and educate yourself?
do you mind giving an example?
What's your educational background with respect to science, math, philosophy of science, and philosophy of mathematics? Not just formal, but self-education as well. And what form did the self-education take?
are you a universalist or a relativist (feel free to add nuance and not answer directly)
You can google it
is that really different from what i'm saying? (asking for clarification)
He won't. Then he'll cry that he doesn't understand because you didn't spoon-feed him so his interpretation is right. Exactly what he did with the "what is a matriarchy?" and "define consciousness" shit he's done over the past few days
"better goods and worse evils" doesnt give the right results. do i need to just read metaethics or is there something i can search to get a simple illustrative example?
i don't agree that he refuses to make any effort. i think he hasn't put in the effort you expect of him.
perhaps to the lament of yall but so it goes
i mean i am curious as to how one might spoon feed a particular distinct definition of consciousness thats "sound" or idk what because ive never investigated it myself

you cant expect me to know your narrow specific definition of matriarchy. if i google "matriarchy" most of the results are synonymous with "matrilineal" which isnt what we were talking about.
you were literally referring to matriarchy within the context of Modern Matriarchal Studies. i dont mind you using niche definitions as long as you communicate effectively.
