  Have you ever stated an epistemology without ontological commitments? How does one speak if not in terms of what exists?

  Since a vocabulary already exists, then through bootstrapping.

  More evidence for why I tell people that the Cogito was a massive mistake. You literally cannot even imagine ontology (being) without knowledge or "thought". The problem is that the appearance of thinking is not thinking. You don't actually know for sure that you are thinking. P-zombies will gladly tell you "they think therefor they are". My ontological foundation starts with my uniqueness, coming from the "creative nothing". Go read stirner or like dharmic philosophy for a non-cogitoist take on ontology.
