| about: | To mniey boli. -- "The most important things about beliefs are whether they are true. The most important thing about motives is whether they are good. But motives don’t tell us whether beliefs are true." ― J. Budziszewski And beliefs don't tell us whether motives are good. -- Being "nice" is not the same as being "good". Nice people are often some of the worst specimens. -- When a good and true comment is downvoted, it is actually the downvoter who is demoting himself and removing himself from the kingdom of truth, turning instead toward the darkness. -- I will, on occasion, steel-man the positions of others in the comments. I do this, because sometimes their positions are not given a fair shake. I take this to be a good act. -- Let us just say that HN is not exactly the creme-de-la-creme. |
