dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in [email protected], it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Your position from the first comment is free will and determinism both exist.

Are you sure about that?

Dialectical materialism holds that both are at work but that material conditions are dominant.

Am I supposed to take "both" to not include "free will?"

You're supposed to review your claim to see whether it's accurate.

What claim do you want me to review?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The one I quoted

I stand behind my impression that “both” was intended to mean that diamat is ultimately compatiblist. A claim I disagree with, as I am not a compatiblist, yet I see no conflict between that and my dialectical materialist outlook.

Do you really not know what I'm challenging you on?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The question is not yet settled by simply debunking religious dogma?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I guess that's a yes lol

This conversation has gone all over the place, I don't know what point you were originally trying to make.
