what is A if not A?

>>19869758
>is

>>19869758
A in the second position and sequence. The first A isn't the same because it's not in the same space and time.

>>19869757
If nothing had being, then neither of us would be aware of this 4chan conversation right now, but we are through our awareness having being, therefore, being exists

QED

>>19869780
>self

>The first A isn't the same because it's not in the same space and time.

uh oh... nihilistbros... I don't feel so good.....

>>19869787
That post didn't contain the word 'self', you were unable to refute the argument in that post and so your sophistry has been defeated. Now leave 4chan and reflect on the perfect eternality and fullness of pure Being, and then you might make it someday.

A hole is a hole

Boys will be boys

>>19869836
>I'm.. uh... replying to your post without existing

>>19869892
>I

>>19869888
boys holes

>>19869904
>"Yes, I exist, how could you tell?"

>>19869757
It actually implys that becoming exists. A (and/or A) might aswell not exist while A is identical to A still making sense.

>>19869770
They're not the same. They're equal. That is how we choose to define "equal". When I say "is" I am referring to equality not "sameness".

>>19869936
You don't

>>19869940
>it exists and doesn’t exist

>>19869757
biggest spook of all times
A is unique and cannot be other A

>>19869992
Yes I do, it's self-evident because I'm sentient, to be sentient and non-existent is a contradiction

>>19869990
I guess that explains how my boss kept giving me a $20 bill but my bank account stayed the same.

You’re going to have to let go of your tautology if you want to escape the cycle of samsara

>>19870173
> if you want to escape the cycle of samsara
If there was nobody existing to begin with, then mentioning escape would be purposeless and unintelligible and you wouldn't see it as an ideal goal or have mentioned it

>>19870040
A is not other A, A is unique A

>>19870236
A cannot be A because the other A is occupying other space

>>19870244
A cannot be other A because the other A occupies other space.

>>19870244
both are the same A, see >>19869808

>>19870252
both can't be the same if you are comparing 2

>>19870257
I'm not comparing 2, I'm considering 1 in a self-relation

>>19870230
>there is no self and therefore nothing to escape from
You’re almost there

>>19870275
There is a self, which is shown by the fact of us being aware of considering such a question, but there is nothing to be escaped from in truth

>>19870282
>us

>>19870289
>Yes, us, the self, that intelligent presence for whom all experiences occur, truly it is a thing of glory and wonder

>>19870311
I’m running out of soijaks.

>>19870334
>"because you have no good arguments"

>>19870356
I feel like I would make you cry if I actually presented an argument against your tautology. I’m compassionate and don’t want to do that.

>>19870371
>I feel like I would make you cry if I actually presented an argument against your tautology.
give it your best shot

>I'm compassionate and don’t want to do that.
you don't exist yet you have attributes, how amusing

>>19870401
this guy who thinks there is no self is ngmi

>>19870271
then just write A
not A is A

>>19870173
>if you want to escape the cycle of samsara
But I don't wanna.
