Mob rule. Not rule of law w individual rights. Always referring to "our democracy" w fake outrage that its "under attack" (by Trump+). Many R's also seem unaware that we do not live in a democracy. Constitutional Republic w elements of a democracy.

Oh, I like your Post, Solver!

Yuuupp when they can’t win with the facts they resort to violence.

"If nothing exists, there can be no consciousness: a consciousness with nothing to be conscious of is a contradiction in terms. A consciousness conscious of nothing but itself is a contradiction in terms: before it could identify itself as consciousness, it had to be conscious of something. If that which you claim to perceive does not exist, what you possess is not consciousness."

The struggle to act with moral integrity would be a special case or an extension of acting according to epistemological principles properly applied. I would guess moral evaluation and subsequent activity can be one mode of a consciousness properly focused.

The new book will be called, “It takes a tribe...”

They are violent because they don't have an argument. They use the media to brainwash people. When that doesn't work, they turn to force.

At this time, if you have an argument that's not enough? Why?...Because we've allowed it to slip too far. It's over the cliff now. It's over. I'm getting calls now almost daily from families I know who are begging me to speak to our state assembly member because they know he knows me and has met with me on past issues (and I appeared to have an impact on his work). But, I'm telling them it's over. Doesn't matter if he listens to me. Want to keep raising your family in Cali? Good luck...You've let them say "it takes a village" regarding your children all these years. Now, get ready for the consequences.

Simply because they can't handle the truth. They know they are in the wrong, so their only recourse is the use of force.

If you say “hug a green tree” and those words are interpreted by someone as a code to blow up a church, then the words, “hug a green tree” are violent words, thus people should be punched for saying these words.
Is this insanity or just neo-postmodern logic?

The latest tactic in postmodernist assaults is the claim that "words are violence." By that they mean that anything you say that they don't agree with pierces their soul, giving them the right to use physical violence as defense against your verbal "attack."

That reasoning explains why leftist demonstrators feel free to punch, kick, or club anyone they believe is an opponent. They feel they have a right to punish the non-believer without shame or guilt. Mussolini's Black Shirts and Hitler's SA held to this belief, and the Antifa thugs are showing the same attitudes.

Until they get angry.

Because communists are violent.

Go back and study the basics.

I think we give these loonies too much credit. I'm not sure they are 'spoiled'. They seem to think they have an entitlement I can't comprehend. I never felt I was entitled to my parent's accomplishments. This doesn't seem to be the case today. I find this attitude very interesting.

So, what you're saying is that it takes a strong, substantial attack for others to see and understand the GOODNESS of our "Western" civilization. They (the post-modernists) are doing our work for us.

When people start to realize how good we all had it before, they'll want to go BACK.

That elusive "moral high ground" must be abandoned to apply the STICK. In our (self-righteous) "morality", our "leaders" have allowed criminals to run rampant. This IS (under Trump) being stopped. It HAS TO stop. There IS NO moral high ground if you're lazy or don't have the courage to enforce MANNERS, CIVILITY, and the Rule of Law.

Without reason, violence is all that’s left

So structure the "environment" to de-fuse uncivil discourse.

About the first quarter of me way through that clip, me dino began to think that one dude talking sense would at the end be attacked.
Me dino is peaches. Me dino is cream.

Because they are spoiled rotten and use to getting their own way. And they will use any means possible to get their way.

Why is the New Left Violent?
Me dino have dis simple answer me do.
Albeit dat movement old or new?~~:
Communists are always violent.

That's it,.. in a gray Nut Shell...

This is another great article from Stephen Hicks.
Now for a moment I thought, this is not new, then I recalled I had seen it earlier in The Spectator.

This whole postmodernism thing is a sorry retreat from advances in logic, philosophy and science and consequently in well-being that humans have achieved over ages.

I wonder if there is another contributor to irrationality working with postmodernism - altruism. Rand's views on altruism leave me uneasy, I get around that by inventing a term false-altruism, where it is really the self interest of some elite group being promoted with fake arguments to appeal to the intellectually deprived. There is also the type where motivations are genuine but the actions are so badly thought out that no benefit results. What is left, the desire to help people who are badly off, with sensible plans, and using resources contributed voluntarily, is rare. Is Objectivism against all types? Or, just against the dishonesty and lack of thought that seems to be so prevalent? The motivation is deep in the human mind, it comes from the need of genes, rather than individual humans, to survive - described by Richard Dawkins.
Can this be overcome? Should it be overcome?

Anyway, some postmodernism gets support from the unthinking who want to save the planet or whatever, what we called the do-gooders, the rest from the lack of any thought whatsoever.

Because they cannot win with or defend their failed ideologies.

To be or Not to be...they answered: Not to be...

“were they born that way or manipulated to be that way.”
Most were originally manipulated, but have currently made the choice to stay that way because they have been programmed to reject civil conversations with people having different opinions.

Parasitical humanoids are like that. They have no mind nor conscience...question is why, were they born that way or manipulated to be that way.

Something I have noticed...when the sun is not engaged with the earth, (sun spot or coronal hole stream) with our magnetic shields down 25% a lot of people are going bonkers...seems to happen a lot lately.
We are in that kind of cycle (nature) and it does mess with the human brain.
Those that have achieved or kept contact with their minds do not seem to be affected.

Also, applying the above: does not a snake or any wild animal, fight for it's life when cornered?

I’ve been watching a few of these,
