Cambodia "Not free", says Freedom House report.

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

There's nothing wrong with testability. It can actually be very useful.

However, I do indeed prefer the world of abstractions of the mind.

In the words of Immanuel Kant's Kritik der reinen Vernunft, I have a preference for synthetic statements a priori, while your own reflexes give the impression that you would rather deal with synthetic statements a posteriori.

It took from 1781 till 1931, almost 150 years, for Kurt Gödel's incompleteness theorems to prove that Kant's analytic statements a priori ("true") do not overlap with synthetic statements a priori ("provable"). Hence, a statement is either true or else provable. It cannot be both. Tarski's undefinability theorem demands that true statements are provable in the metamodel and not in the model.

In that sense, Immanuel Kant's three types of statements, true, provable, and testable are (non-overlapping) partitions of the domain. They do indeed not share the same world. These different truth values form an algebraic lattice that implement the absorption law. Therefore, do not worry if you cannot prove it, because if it were provable, it would not be true.

'' Nobody should take them seriously.

That is some heavy psychobabble. I suddenly feel so inferior. But now I am free from self imposed incarceration and am now free to express myself. Bullshit! We are all as free as we want to be. :stir:
