[fusion event]Category Topic: platonism

We do two types of meetups -- Pre-planned topics, which feature a page or two seed discussion, with multiple discussion queue questions, and Category topics, which are a general category, for which members then post specific questions with whatever background is needed to provide context. This meetup is a category topic on platonism. As a pair of quick definitions: Litle p platonism is the view that at least some abstract objects such as numbers, values, moral principles, sociological norms, and social constructs (like the British Constitution) are "real". Big P Platonism is the particular form of little p platonism that Plato held by -- where abstract perfections are the only things that are real, and this world is just a pale set of emanations from the perfections of Forms of abstractions. Little p platonism is the broader term, and is what the topic is intended to discuss. We meet in person and online. In person will be at 10113 Seattle Slew Lane. This meetup location does not have sufficient chairs for all of us, so it is advisory to bring a portable chair. The location also does not have food for sale. I will bring several large pizzas, and will request $2/slice. One pizza will be vegetarian. Tap water is available, please bring any other drinks desired. Online will be: https://teams.live.com/meet/93583191724730?p=hY3jxVvnOciVl2aRn5
