I'm more interested in understanding and providing different perspectives on the formation of ideas than trying to convince others to accept my actual beliefs.

OK, but what is your thesis? In order to understand, one must have a thesis, otherwise it is just trolling.

Case in point, the Civil Rights Movement was successful from certain perspectives, but unsuccessful from other's perspectives, most notably from those who feel like their quality of life or position has diminished since then regardless of the moral implications of such a conclusion. The question remains, was it a valid movement even though there were negative consequences, ie teens missing school, fear, civil unrest, violence etc.?

If someone feels the urge to be aggressive, that's their decision, or perhaps a limitation brought on by a over-reliance on an echo chamber for civil discourse. Quote:
Additionally, understanding also comes from empathy and perspective, two things that can be hindered by a predetermined thesis.

We've lost track of the original allegory: Quote:

My point was that you're strategy is effective.

What's your question? "Why" what?

I'll take that as a compliment whether or not it actually is one!
I'm strategically choosing my words, with varying degrees of success, to express my thoughts as best I can. It's understandably off-putting to those who disagree with what I have to say because an atypical statement requires a atypical response, which aren't already in the chamber.

I didn't ask what the original allegory was, I made the original allegory here:
Quote:
Quote:
Examples:
I could go on, but the entire US Constitution is upheld by government mandates to protect the rights of Americans. If you want to argue that the EV doesn't reflect the will of the people, then by all means. (Your welcome) However, you couldn't be more wrong about the word "mandate" itself... it is essential to Democracy.

Sidestepping the discussion by attacking the person seems to be your go-to strategy when you have no other meaningful input. At least you’re consistent.
It’s a shame you deleted your other reply to me earlier today. Your consistency could have been on full display on one page.

Back to basics and I'd like to concentrate more on the risk to Firemen tackling EV fires which are explained in this vid with cobalt poisoning added to the list which can be career ending, the huge amounts of water used to douse EV fires are then contaminated running into drains and how do you tackle such an emergency in a multi storey car park?

"However, you couldn't be more wrong about the word 'mandate' itself... it is essential to Democracy." - Again, no; diversity of thought is essential to Democracy. Regarding climate change. You keep using the term "climate change skeptic". Any discussion on climate change must be segregated into natural climate change and anthropogenic climate change. Your discussion on climate lacks sophistication. Mandated adoption of EV does not address the impact of natural climate change. Natural climate change is far more impactful on the planet than anthropogenic climate change. Most of us here who understand climate science are of that position, that adoption of EV is not going to impact natural climate change. You mistakenly call it an echo chamber. You call it an echo chamber because you don't separate climate change into natural and anthropogenic causes. That's where the need for sophistication of the discussion comes into play.

You're bringing together the ev mandate with the civil rights movement. These two are probably as related as the effect that going EV will have on global CO2 levels. |
