How many of you are misunderstood geniuses?Tell r9k an idea /concept that most of r9k doesn't have capacity to understand >there's no self
>>84952310>I have profound ability>I haven't cured cancer or made world*snore*
>>84952310Are you saying that there is no self because you are an amalgam of your experiences which are intrinsically linked to the world around you and other people?
>>84952310>I enjoy most things and am usually well-versed in themThe most insufferable person alive
>>84952333Yes you essentially got it there's no persisting essence underlying your actions , choices and interests just a constantly changing feedback system
>>84952396at that point what does exist? just bc you can think it doesn't mean that it's useful. you can go invent your own math for example and accomplish nothing interesting for humanity for the rest of your life
>>84952310I thought I was pretty smart before talking to some anons from here. Then I just realized I've been living in my own head my entire life with no one to challenge me so I've stagnated.
>>84952409>at that point what does exist? jWhat we call things aren't things just objects that look similar enough within timescales convenient to humans. Comtinents are masses of land that are seperated by large body of waters but every contingent was once one big large continent.
Making a post like that would suggest otherwise. I think if you are on this website you are dumb as fuck. Specifically this board too, there's no way you people are actually like this.
This board is incredibly stupid actually
>>84952455>What we call things aren't things just objects
>>84952477Sorry for being verblet but here's an example >You exist and maybe your name is mat>from day your born to now you were called mat by people >but what part of body is mat actually?All of your cells for few exceptions have been changed. Your brain is constantly changing due to environment, your values and beliefs change with age. But what makes mar actually? For everything he has changed, and everything he mostly identifies with him aren't of his isn't idea
>>84952310I dunno I think Heisenberg's uncertainty principles and plank length/plank time is probably an example of something hard to explain.
>>84952502well if the answer to your questions is "there is no sense of self" then refer to my earlier reply>>84952409we're just back where we started
>>84952576sorry I misquoted I didn't mean "there is no sense of self" I meant "there is no self"
