Fichte cooking on gun control already in 1796:
The important thing to keep in mind about John Searle is that in addition to being an asshole and a sexual predator he was also shit philosopher
Efforts to paint the moments we're in as “anti-American” while romanticizing US history and its foundations do not dig us out of fascism; they dig us deeper in. Tell the truth about how this country came to be and what it is now, or expect more problems.
The WaPa headline says: 60,000 Gazans were killed. 18,500 of them were children. These are some of their names. Then follows an enormous list of small print names
Thousands of small print names interspersed with some photos of some of the child victims
NEW: 18,500 children have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.
The Washington Post has just published every single known name.
A seminal moment.
Salient line from Kant's Universal History:
Everything in the large is woven together out of folly, childish vanity, often also out of childish malice and the rage to destruction, so that in the end one does not know what concept to make of our species, with its smug imaginings about its excellences
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
With this vote, Congress makes ICE the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency in history, with more money per year at its disposal over the next four years than the budgets of the FBI, DEA, ATF, US Marshals, and Bureau of Prisons combined.
Important that this "interruption" came after the secretary had literally declared war on Californians' right to self governance
Trump official declares that the US military will stay in LA until they "liberate the city" from its elected officials.
It honestly shocks me that they will *talk* like this already.
Hey Rudolf C, tell me about your dog Luchs!
"Well, he's made up of classes of classes of many-place relation extensions. He's the best boy 😍😍"
Still my fave music video i made
Russell telling Husserl he'd read his logic in jail.
Russell goes hard: "I'm taking your logic with me to jail"
Andry José Hernández Romero
Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.
No one has heard from you in 43 days.
As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.
Truth
In literally their own words:
On one side: trans people are "cheaters and possibly perverts".
On the other side: "people who say that are bigots".
NYT: omg the incivility on both sides!!
Sound like fun! The Groundwork is so much more interesting through that lens, as a conceptal analysis
These two posts:
* “We need to treat antifa and BLM like terrorist organizations,” said Joe Kent, Trump’s pick to lead counter-terrorism efforts.
* Trump to Bukele (president of El Salvador): “Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It’s not big enough.” 1/
Bolzano's definition of a "science" is great: is what you're saying knowledge and "important enough to be set forth in a special book"? Then it's a science.
We have had nearly two decades of panic about Free Speech on Campus and not a single case, not even the ones they made up, were as bad as what's happening now
New Yorker cartoon.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

One of my favorite things about Michael was that once he'd really get rolling in lecture he'd just close his eyes and speak for like 10-15 minutes on something before opening them again, as if he were moving around in pure logical space
Michael Friedman has passed away at just 77.
Michael had the sharpest and most comprehensive intellect I've ever known. He was also a good friend.
He spent his final years contemplating Kant's theology and moral philosophy - may he find timeless peace in the ultimate unity of freedom and nature!

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

In the U.S. you can be arrested or potentially deported for criticizing Israel. Terrifying and disgusting
im obsessed with the early modern period because you go to any scientist's biography and it's like "then he wrote a 400 page treatise about how the world-soul is sentient but not conscious and thereby it cannot go to hell"
Hey look good news!!!
