Thanks you for writing this, yeah it appears that we are talking past each other (particularly in my debate with Jimmy). I was going to write another post to try and clarify this debate, but decided against it for five reasons:
1. I already promised Isusr I would make a different (and hard to make) post this week and I don’t want to spam out posts.
2. The downvotes are telling me this is clearly a controversial/community-splitting topic and I’ve been making too much of those lately
3. I’ve now already made two posts on this topic so I’m starting to get sick of it.
4. While my english has improved remarkably these past years it is apparently not yet at the level where I can discuss contemporary philosophy without taking the risk of not effectively communicating with my interlocutor (this might sometimes be the fault of your interlocutor but it has happened two times in two weeks so I’m giving myself at the very least partial blame)
5. I have exams right now, so I should really be studying more for those.
Maybe I’ll make one in a couple months if no one else has made a post on it yet.
