@daviditapper I don’t think theoretical reason can provide such desire. It lacks motivational power. whatever is the motivation that drives the development of human capacities, I don’t know, however, the vehicle which that development happens through is instrumental reason.

@PartPhilo199 I’m not sure it’s an intelligible question. Perhaps greed/pride drive us to build spaceships (due to instrumental reason). Or the innate desire to pursue knowledge (theoretical reason). The development of capability =dev of practical reason, but the mechanism is human antagonism

@daviditapper The question is basically which form of reason is responsible for the progression and refinement of human capabilities over time?

@TrueSlazac @capt_calhoun And if the dictatorship are popular like CCP in china?? They don't have legitimacy?? Again, I share your desire to spread liberal democracy in the world, but you need to understand nuance, cultura barriers.. And the use of diplomacy and sanctions to advance humans rights.

Liberal democracy is required for legitimacy because it doesn’t institute an ideology. Doing so would severely limit self-determination. A liberal democracy can be nationalist or could be socialist. However, it doesn’t impose a set ideology which can’t be deterred from.

@capt_calhoun Liberal democracy is a requirement for the state to be legitimate, if the leader is not picked by the people you can’t have “self determination”

Animation quality isn’t dependent on money. It depends on the skill of the animator and the time given to them. You can throw money at a project but if you don’t give your animators time they can’t produce quality animation.Unless your 1950s America, they were built different.
That COMICBOOK Guy@Culture3ase

Fans are confused on why ‘INVINCIBLE’ has worse animation than ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ with 10x the animation budget. $150K animation vs. $2.5 Million animation
