THE REBEL FLAG

[BlueTiki]

....but I find life's experiences, etc., emotions, etc. have more to do with our individual decisions....but anyone should be able to put something on the table and have a logical discussion based on the facts alone (like detectives do).

I do think common sense should override some of the shit the "critical" thinkers espouse at times.

Mr. Bill Cosby is still a POS......

I'm not sure what is your definition of critical thinking.

To me, critical thinking comes from applying reason and logic to unfamiliar or uncomfortable situations with a (for lack of a better term) open minded approach that might end in a result contrary to personal beliefs and emotional attachment.

One should identify preconceived notions, bias and outcomes to allow themselves to empathize with opposing views.

The same applies when "researching" and interpreting data.

Unless it's Whoopie Goldberg still defending Bill Cosby.

Then just give her the finger and mutter "dumb nigger".

My brother once told me: Sometimes the best response to an intellectual argument is "Fuck You!".

Works for me.
