It's the odd person that actually adopts solipsism as a viable philosophy. But not far removed from solipsism, though, is the insulating quality of the internet. Persons can trash each other face to face in the newsgroups without fear of the social consequence. It's a behavior that most would find unconscionable, or at the least regrettable, in public. The behavior here is akin to road rage, where drivers are insulated from each other by the personal universe of their vehicle. I've had some good, liberal friends over the years with whom I've had some rather passionate political discussions. I generally haven't agreed with the basic tenets of their respective political philosophies; but, I've recognized that, for the most part, they were (and are) decent persons. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

I didn't say I had adopted it; I stated it was a step up the ladder from the mindless badinage of the righties. Understood. You'll have to forgive me if I was too subtle in disassociating you from the strict definition of the solipsist in my commentary. I'm really too busy to invest much time in these discussions, and I try to compose these notes on the fly. I'm not always careful enough in my hurry. To be honest and to be pragmatic, I really shouldn't be investing any time (else I could be charged with the hackneyed "you're a 40 year old living in your mother's basement" ad hom - shades of the Idle Race's "I Like My Toys"). -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |
