@KevinDSmead@alexvorg@craigweiss Phenomena in the universe can emerge deterministically or randomly. In neither case is your meat sack in control of the circumstances. If you can come up with a 3rd option, you are free to let me know how your skinbag personally controls the particles.
@KevinDSmead@alexvorg@craigweiss This discussion is mandatory. Whatever "point" your brain might perceive is irrelevant. I guess you think a tornado or a blackhole needs a "point"?
@BidetPuzzl545@RonfortMartin@tristanharris Free thought is not real. The hallucination of independent thought is a "cognitive virus". The truth is that people can only write and think what has to get generated out of them at the particular time.
@tescecinterest@tristanharris One can only believe what the chemicals generates out of them at the time. People don't independently control anything they believe.
@KevinDSmead@alexvorg@craigweiss Human "reasoning" is a hallucination. You are bound to what the chemicals in the system generate out of you. You cannot independently choose what path you go down when facing a problem.
@DenLoginoff@GaryMarcus Humans are not "general" either. The folks can only grasp or believe what the physical state of their brain generates out of them.
@RoxanaIvankkea@HumanHarlan They can only believe what the chemicals generate out of them. What about brains makes you think they can independently pick and choose what actions they take?
@Dr_da_Vinci@HumanHarlan Free thought and free action are not real. The people involved can only do what their brain generates out of them. You hallucinate that the events you observe could happen differently. It is not a "psyop". It is merely what the universe generates.
@SammySpunkGoo@MattWalshBlog You are a word predictor. You just use neurons instead of circuits. Where do you think your own words are coming from right now?
@robziman@AlejandroZarUrd@haider1 He is a delusional meat bot like most of the rest. Humans are controlled by the universe, not the other way around. The reason it is so fast is that humans dont control any of this. This is simply what the universe is generating.
@hendrixart Look at the apes who believe in the invisible man in the sky questioning the validity of things that can have a demonstrable effect in the world.
@mylandros@GaryMarcus So if a person sees a rock and a blind person doesn't, then the rock doesn't exist, and the blind person is just less consciously apt than other people?
