the regress problem states that all human knowledge is axiomatic.

it is true for literally every single possible proposition.

Okay so it's clear you understand why I brought it up and that it's true.

I don't know why the rest of the comment is phrased so angrily but if you're just saying I'm right I don't know how to respond to it lol.

asking him to overcome this problem is so fucking far outside the scope of what you’re arguing about as to be ridiculous, you look silly.

I wasn't asking him to overcome it, I was astonished he would claim he could overcome it because it's as obviously true as we both claim.

Not sure why I look silly if you keep telling me how absolutely right I am in all contexts lol
