Hi Platt, I will use your last statement below to amplify. Not because of its combative nature, but because of what it points to as a result of the conversation previously from you (in my interpretation).
[Platt] Why don't you simply say: Platt is a conservative and supports free market capitalism, so I will do whatever I can to slime him. Not what one expects when trying to reach mutual understanding. [Mark] Free market support points to individual freedom. For this reason, I believe your answer to X's question and the subject matter would be that you value the individual (or biological level) as having the highest quality. One doesn't have to choose of course, and the question is simply an effector itself (let's call it the X factor). In this interpretation of your responses, I would have to agree with you. The individual is not subordinate to society or intellect as MoQ suggests with the hierarchy. This would be similar to the trunk of a plant not being subordinate to the forest and flowers on one side, and the roots on the other. It comprises the individual component, and shines from its own merit. Placing people into boxes makes discussion easier, but often results in one battling his own ghosts. As such, such discussion is not directed towards you but towards a personal phantom. There is no defense against that, and none needed.
