I agree with Germies - Transgender women can never be women... women are women and that's it....

Just sticking to the subject matter there..... holding up my end of the conversation... avoiding personal vitriol as the only means of discourse and as a way of proving the user of such to have no mental accuity.

Quote:

................................women are women and that's it.......

yes indeed. And women are beautiful.
transgenders, not so.

Meaning?

Oh, you mean things like Hello Kitty One Direction, fake Gucci, Ford and Holden, and the number one internet search of all time - angry cat.

Yes, these things give us meaning, just as back in the Middle Ages, fake Jesus thorns, nails or foreskins filled the number one relics list.

Meaning doesn’t actually mean anything. The question of meaning assumes its own answer. Meaning simply joins the dots of supply and demand, fulfillment and desire. These are economic things. You can’t mean something you don’t already have, or want, or are led to believe. You can’t believe something you don’t already mean.

This isn’t nihilism, it’s existential. You can’t have a paper cutter without the existence of paper.

There is no "meaning", Mistie. If there was, you could tell me what it is.

It's little wonder you lefties are so pessimistic and miserable. And it's also no wonder you don't understand religious people or conservative people. Step outside all that rebellious literature you read and broaden your horizons.

Broaden my horizons, Mistie. Tell me what you mean.

All leftist literature lambastes the past and present - to them it's all one stinking pile of sh*t. What foundation does that give for a meaningful, or even happy, life? Zero. Why do you think conservatives place so much stock in the past and tradition? Because it tells them where they come from and who they are. Lefties sh*t on the past then wonder why life ıs crap.

Meaning is the past?

That’s not what I read in Edmund Burke - or Andrew Bolt.

Would you care to explain?

That’s a hard one, Mistie. Do you mean like in Scouts?

Is this what should replace economics as the focus of social and political thought?

Esprit de Corps?

What a total bugger** Paki prat. "Is this what should replace economics as the focus of social and political thought?" he asks. What a total stupid mindless cadre.

As if life HAD to be all about economics because Marx said so in the 19th century. As if other aspects of human life had to be waived away limply as mere 'superstructure' because Marx said so 150 years ago.

What a fuddy-duddy, reactionary old Paki bVgger you are, Paki Bvgger. Islamic suicide bombers do not die for Marxist economics. The little front bottom in Parramatta didn't shoot the police accountant for Marxist economic reasons.
