… another country doesn't want American visitors. Great Britain has announced we are on the their red list. MAGA

Does that make us a sh!t hole country?

We've always been a turd hole country to you and your buds.

When there’s mold growing on the walls do you eradicate it or let it bloom?

If you don’t love it, then leave it. We’re going to fix it.

The enablers of marxists and the clueless dependent telling the productive to leave cause they're gonna fix it. #fvck the fourth and defund the police!

Testing way behind where we should be (graph is tests divided by confirmed cases - should be ideally above 50-100):



Need to be testing at 4-10x current level, and doing a much better job as SD/other measures to limit spread.

... you got to love the clowns who think HCQ is being dissed because Trump supports it. They have the situation 180 degrees turned. The only reason they are supporting it is because Trump does - projection on a massive scale. Don't wear a mask (that's akin to the Holocaust); don't social distance; take your daily 300-400 mg of HCQ, you'll live forever and the genital warts will clear up.

… we are on the verge of having a new all time leader in daily infection rate. New York currently holds the record for the most in a single day at 11,824. Let's hear it for Florida who yesterday managed 11,458, now in second place and climbing.

yeah. it couldn't be both sides. you are seeing so clearly.

so who would you test, that's not able to get a test now?

… sorry, but one side is right and one side is wrong. Either HCQ is effective and safe or it isn't. The media may be playing games, but the real scientist aren't.

if you've made a conclusion already, i'm glad you don't read my lab results.
if you are consumed by your political beliefs, your politicians will ultimately let you down.

The bitter-end irony:Lockdown delayed the escalation to 14% seroprev immunity in the <70 population & ironically ended up killing even MORE elder citizens in LTC.

Lockdowns killed citizens both directly thru economy/access & indirectly by delaying herd immunity in the young.

my politicians or political beliefs have nothing to do with whether HCQ is effective and safe. NO ONE HAS PROVEN IT TO BE SAFE AND EFFECTIVE - scientific reality, not hope, not wish, not belief. The most recent nonsense out of Henry Ford most certainly did not do that. An effective vaccine will be in hand long before anyone does. If you think it is safe and effective, of just don't care, knock yourself. There are doctors, not many, who will prescribe it for you.

Of Pretend Sleep and Authentic Dreams
It is the intent of this author and purpose of this blog to propose afresh from its beginning, a genuine problem in philosophy. A problem of method-induced creeping ignorance, wrought in the name of science. A Tadpole or boot trainee is never considered a fully skilled soldier, until he or she first knows how not to endanger or abuse others with their weapon. In similar critical nature, until one understands how a philosophical definition or principle can be manipulated for ill intent, one has not really learned it. Such is the nature of ethical skepticism; an applied ability to spot the condition wherein skepticism is employed with the specific goal of cultivating ignorance inside society. In order for us to hone our skills at spotting scientific deception through means of this false skepticism however, it becomes necessary that one approach afresh, many core ideas of philosophy.

Philosophy is a tar baby as well; for in the moment you eschew or jeer philosophy, unfortunately you have pretended to the role of philosopher. Given all this, for me the question arises, ‘then why not do philosophy well?’ While the philosopher runs the risk of dealing in sophistry within such a blog effort as The Ethical Skeptic, and accordingly I examine my own steps with a skeptic’s eye for this misrepresentation by means of locution; nonetheless, I feel it to be of greater importance to foster public understanding of our errant versions of skepticism than retreat into a presumed parsimony. A personal regard of such urgency that I hold this clarity as paramount over the red-herring effect that events of the day or persons seeking more than their 15 minutes of fame might serve to impart. So for myself, becoming a philosopher therefore is a must. The fundamental bad philosophies decried in this work, the habits of Bernaysian belief engineering, methodical cynicism and pseudo-skepticism, have served to underpin the origin of much conflict, ignorance and suffering on the part of greater mankind. What we do know is used to control us, while what we do not know serves to harm us. Skepticism is the process of becoming dissatisfied with this state of affairs.

Many find this site to constitute a hard read. Technical and legal writing constitutes a significant portion of my trade/businesses. I can often be found crafting agreements or specifications, documents which are by their intent precise and effective; not inane prose by any stretch. One should not attempt to casually speed-read or glean through this material and then pretend that their shortfall in mental effort now somehow translates into my responsibility. Moreover, such austerity and precision of language is purposed. The Ethical Skeptic is written so as to filter out the average low-bandwidth troll or subscriber to Skeptical Inquirer; those who fell prey to their doctrines, precisely because they could not fathom philosophical rigor in the first place. This material, while not purposefully abstruse, is also not going to be simply (read that as ‘equivocally’) worded, nor compromised in such a way as to pretense talking down to another level. If you cannot comprehend this material, then neither are you developmentally ready to receive its tenets. A skilled reading acumen however, may discern the ode concealed within its passages. One can find a cache of blithering common sense straw man one-liners some other place. On average I invest days or weeks of actual research and thought into the meta-ethics woven inside my blog posts. When you observe a social skeptic weekly rambling off the same tired list of century-old conclusions regarding an array of subjects inside of which they could not possibly hold necessary expertise – this, take as an indication of the level of effort contribution as well as their being compensated in some form for their fallacy-strewn journalism.

Moreover, this blog is written for those with ‘soul in the game’; they who bear the fortitude to suffer, appreciate and comprehend the philosophical precision requisite inside understanding. Stamina driven forth by a passion in searching for Karl Popper’s proverbial ‘treasure buried underneath philosophy’s heap of ruins’. This site contains a graduate level of philosophy and beyond; featuring an ethic which venerates heroes based on their ideas and not their antiquity nor academic repetition. It is said that knowledge may be obtained through study, yet wisdom is attained through arduous and complete life. Beware of those who suggest they obtained wisdom from study. Accordingly, you will notice herein a relative dearth of respect for ancient Greek and Christian Reformation philosophers; those attempting to prove or disprove God through means of clever casuistry. Such work is foolishness; mere abuse of antiquity and icon as surreptitious appeal to authority. If the essential depth of your philosophy is derived from academic aperçu on Seneca, Plato or Nietzsche, and not through the robust struggle of your own life – let’s be clear, you are pretending. Instead, I have crafted this site for those who have encountered the wall of dissatisfaction in their maturation as a doctor of philosophy – a dissonance which indistinctly broods inside the minds of captive, oppressed and real, scientists. Those who are walking a life path of gaining wisdom.

If a man’s thoughts are to have truth and life in them, they must, after all, be his own fundamental thoughts; for these are the only ones that he can fully and wholly understand. . . . a man who thinks for himself can easily be distinguished from the book-philosopher by the very way in which he talks, by his marked earnestness, and the originality, directness, and personal conviction that stamp all his thoughts and expressions. The book-philosopher, on the other hand, lets it be seen that everything he has is second-hand.

~ Arthur Schopenhauer, “On Thinking for Yourself” (1851)
There are three types of person. Those who create great ideas, those who pan them, and those who take the credit for them. I strive always to be, and have always played role as, the former. Therein, I have found that the latter will most often secretly reward an ability to create value through ideas; while at the same time ignoring the midmost: the doubter, debunker and cynic. These characters reside in a perpetual state of resentment towards creatively intelligent minds, accentuated by a ripe frustration over the lack of recognition their ‘critical thinking skills’ beget. Their distress mandates the formation of skeptic clubs which offer the means of celebrity and self aggrandizement they so desperately crave. Never fathoming that their ilk come at a dime-a-dozen. Therefore, take this as a hint about skepticism as well. It is a discipline of value creation, and not one of critique.

What I have to say in this blog therefore constitutes a genuinely novel, non-obvious to the artisan, teachable and isolate problem of philosophy, developed from mankind’s prior art inside the subject. Five of the nine critical factors that make for great new philosophy. I will also strive to make this work cogent, clarifying, useful and agenda free as much as I can (the other four critical factors). Nonetheless, what I have to say in this blog is also quietly on the minds of curious citizen and scientist alike. Good minded people who grapple with an inner dissonance. A difficulty explaining just why we possess discomfort with the bien pensant who clamor to dominate and promote a specific set of grand conclusions; and while possessing scant experience or credential, claim as well to speak on behalf of science. Those pretending to be asleep – among whom we formerly numbered our membership. We who are awakened by such dreams in authenticity instinctively grasp this; however, have nonetheless found frustration in articulating its core dissonance. Until now. And in this regard, I seek to disambiguate ethical skepticism from its misrepresented skeptical straw man. In this regard as well, I am not the only ethical skeptic.
