Like a historian,univ teacher,politicians,travelers,cultures,I'm not a #pragmatist I'm a #idealist &it's never pragmatic to piss culture off, #drag for me was so inspiring,actually this is my begin for a day,this actually happen every day my transmission,meeting,visits,traveling in North Korea,C-hina,Russia,Romania,Israel,Hungary,United state of america,Sweden,Norway,Iceland,Alaska,Greenland, Deutschland,Peru...no matter what happens in #Tennessee I'm with you!but I'm with you,here&now

I link to think I'm an #optimist, a hopeful #idealist, and a right-now #pragmatist.

I'd like to tap in the last of those atm. Is there anything we can do now (within months) to decrease #GunViolence?

I'm not looking for "Take away all the #guns" or "Give everyone guns" idealists but #pragmatic solutions.

What I want (what I really, really want) is to know if there are meaningful ways we could reduce the number of victims (especially children) that would work across the political spectrum?

Through a #pragmatist lens, #psychedelics offer the occasion to alter your grip, your praxis-grip, on reality. As, of course, do many other things. Such as education. And all spiritual, political, scientific, and esthetic perspective-altering experiences.

Are you experienced?

"Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."

Things I know about this quote:
1) It is not from #Goethe.
2) It is true #pragmatist wisdom, drawing upon the same #faith that accompanies #pragmatism's grasp on life.

Oh dear - you really have swallowed the idea an individual can possess "the Truth" and everyone else is WRONG

You mistake me - I am a #pragmatist who accepts that we are where we are - with #brexit implemented and harming our country - the question I think is - how do we get out of this trap?

I do not think posting that I "repeat facts" whilst any who do not accept everything I say "accept lies" is the way to do it

Have a happy new year!

This 3-way interview from '02, featuring #Rorty, #Putnam + #Conant is very interesting.

Most interesting about it, to my mind, is that it's Putnam who comes across as most down-to-earth, most authentically, experientially connected with real-world concerns. In other words, who comes across as most genuinely #pragmatist. Even when referencing #Kant or #Plato, he is less abstract in tone and content than either Conant or, especially, Rorty. Symptomatic.
