This is a genuine woosh bro. The mind/matter gap has always been a distinct part of western philosophy. The best we have are “compromises” that may or may not be logically sound, like Kant’s phenomenal world. But even in the 1700s, David Hume, a SCOTTISH EMPIRICIST (those most concerned with evidence), developed the idea that all observations are simply related in time, and it’s the human psychological urge to organize that gives any correlation at all. Otherwise, you’re left with a dogmatic, unchanging interpretation of science, not an actual scientific method based on falsifiability and reinterpretation. The best we have for “truth” is universal assent, as in most people agree.

Reply to comment by JoseMich in Nietzsche is better understood as the Father of Psychoanalysis than Existentialism; his philosophy has two components: the diagnosis of our culture's Decadence (under the Ascetic Ideal) and a prescription for health in the Dionysian Counter-Ideal by thelivingphilosophy
Schopenhauer is another very very similar author to Freud.

Hey you’ll grow out of it. Try to take ur own advice and reduce screen time. When i’m depressed it makes the overthinking worse. Get a nice, stress relieving hobby that has no link to technology. That way you’ll prob text her less too

Sci-fi especially has always been a social commentary for this reason. In fact, most fiction is. OP would be surprised to learn that sci fi looked way different in the 19th century, for example.

As a political philosophy student it really hurts to see all this futurism with the obvious conclusion ignored: political organization matters. It doesn’t matter how much you believe the new technologies will matter, technicians are required for all these things, and technicians are a vulnerable anomaly of the modern world. It’s just as likely technical sciences are lost (diverted for war, domination, profit, etc.) into a new dark age as it is to enter a cornucopian age where technology serves the developmental use for a utopian society.

Ill never understand people going to “____ grill.” Like those are always scams, only populated by boomers, and absolutely garbage food.
