  • You probably should report them to the MI6, CIA, NSA, IRA, YMCA and all other organizations just to make sure. In fact, just start screaming at people in the street about this one random college/highschool girl or else communism as a whole will just collapse.

    Watch out China, fucking Hannah from Wisconsin junior college repeated something every white person already says.

    how do you calibrate a fahrenheit thermometer? With celsius it’s hilariously trivial, if the thermometer says it’s about 0 when you see water freeze, it’s correct enough for everyday use.

    You do the exact same but use 32 degrees instead of zero. I know celsius is cool and good but most people seem incapable of understanding how its just fucking marks on a line and any non-sciencey advantage is pretty much null.




  • I think qualia and the philosophical zombie thing pokes a hole in the whole non-soul thing but I’ll admit that I don’t have a good materialist explanation.

    I’d wager that consciousness is some sort of emergent property of matter operating on a dimension we can’t directly interact with. 70% of our understanding of the universe doesn’t come from directly observing stuff, it comes from observing the effects of it.

    That doesn’t mean that you have an eternal soul that survives death, just that consciousness is a bit more complicated than the current materialist explanation.





  • Why? You have no understanding of why this person uploaded this file, nothing to go on, nor any knowledge about this person beyond their account uploaded the file. Was it intentional, maybe they just copied shit off a flash? If it was, were they reading and agreeing or were they just interested in the book? You have no idea and you will never know.

    Not everything needs to be a moral crusade. Every single co-worker, including you, have thoughts that would get you fired. Work is like the brown paper bag over your can. Maybe they’re drinking soda, maybe they’re drinking beer, but unless they do some shit don’t go around trying to read the label.



  • My point still stands even if its modified a bit.

    It’s only your mind active in this scenario. You might as well just ask to know everything in existence.

    Knowing everything in existence is just merging with the universe which isn’t what I want. I want my ego to still exist, even if only temporarily. I don’t want to go from human -> THE ALL, I want to follow the path with the extra time I was given.

    I don’t see how you get to the ascension part anyway, you can only absorb the answers you look for, you don’t get time and space to do anything with it.

    If I don’t get time and space then it doesn’t matter what I ask anyway as I’d be dead before I got to appreciate the answer. “Oh what’s the secret of the universe?” But then I’m dead before I even get to think about what it means. May as well just ask what’s on TV tomorrow because I wouldn’t get anything from it.





  • Yeah…he literally put $1400 in your pocket, assuming you’re American, at the beginning of his administration in response to the covid-19 virus.

    Trump did it twice, plus Biden promised $2000 and walked that back when he was in office.

    Ignoring everything else, Trump pushed for the checks and called on congress to make increases to what was given out. Biden sent out a lower amount than what he promised and then presided over the clusterfuck that was the end of the pandemic.



  • I hate their unconscious brains but I think their consciousness is okay.

    Humans are driven more by unconscious monkey brain then they care to admit. The people they like, hate, and pay attention to are largely unconscious behaviors. In this way, a human in a social setting is pure animal. The personality and ego are mere tools used by the human organism to navigate these social situations.

    The human organism is a unconscious, cruel thing that should be abandoned as soon as possible. The egos created from it are okay. But asking them to separate themselves is hard for the trained let alone the layman.

    95% of the “wholesome human moments” are more or less tribalism/nepotism malfunctioning.

    It’s like when a mother cat adopts ducklings because she came across them shortly after birth. But if it was 8 hours before she’d hunt and eat them. The cat doesn’t care about the ducks, it’s just a brain chemistry acting in a weird case. Humans are not different, they just imagine their emotions/unconscious social calculations to be a part of themselves.
