I was exchanging some words with a friend, after I had mentioned an article. He suggested that the article &#8220;could easily be Israeli propaganda to legitimize a new attack on Gaza.&#8221; I tried to explain that such information seemed contrary to Israeli interests &#8212; that if Israel wants to publish propaganda, it should write something [...]]]></description>

I have seen both teachers and books describe neoliberalism as an ideology in &#8220;opposition to government intervention in the economy&#8221;*. Its adherents tend to be vilified as zealous believers in the invisible hand and this definition of neoliberalism is then used in a straw man argument, with neoliberalism clearly shown as false due to the [...]]]></description>

I tend to believe that philosophical differences boil down to differences in terms of values, of which none is better than the other since they are essentially assumptions about the nature of our world. The conflict between primitivism and liberalism serves as a fine example:

We have to be careful when reading the news, because many articles are misleading at least in one way (though the mistakes are usually innocent). Statistics are too often without context and, without easily accessible sources, they&#8217;re difficult to verify. Here&#8217;s an example of potentially flawed statistics:

Let&#8217;s consider these words by Winston Churchill:
The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.
I would not extend this to the economic systems of capitalism and socialism, but still, it holds a certain truth:

It does not seem to me that there is a rational basis in claiming that there is no God.

We believe in life because we experience it, because it is all around us. [...]]]></description>

It seems quite clear to me that humans are not designed for &#8220;happiness&#8221;. There are many aspects of how our mind functions that seem to suggest that the priority in our &#8220;design&#8221; was focused on something other than happiness, certainly other than happiness per day lived.
