The co-founder of failed cryptocurrency exchange FTX pleaded not guilty to a seven count indictment charging him with wire fraud, securities fraud and money laundering.

An attorney for FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried said in federal court Tuesday his client has to subsist on bread, water and peanut butter because the jail he’s in isn’t accommodating his vegan diet.

    Animals must just run from danger because the wind pushes them that way. Wonder why dogs wag their tails when they see humans. Strange. Nah no proof they have desires or fears

    none of this is proof they understand personal mortality, which is the crux if this disagreement.

      No it’s not the crux. Avoiding danger to protect their lives is pretty good proof.

      A man follows a woman and she runs away.

      The man: “she could still wanna have sex”

      Maybe you’d be better seeing all the animals that mourn deaths of others.

        mourning death of others is not proof that an animal know it, itself, might die.

            this distinction is the crux of the matter. your inability to address it meaningfully and nonsequitur of an accusation belie either a lack of understanding or a malicious intent to engage in bad faith. i can see no other explanation.

        Avoiding danger to protect their lives is pretty good proof.

        you’re observing behavior and assuming cognition. you need to prove the cognition, and behavior is evidence but not proof.
