This could be debated but... sci fi dystopia is meant to highlight the horror we are in right now, not necessarily some prediction of the future. The use of an exaggerated fictional future is meant to shake off the intense normalization of existing in modernity.
It's a great show. Modern anime sucks. Prove me wrong!
Why do they always speak like this? Do they think if they use enough words and commas they can obfuscate the basic fact that they down bad for some digital booba?
tbh they are prob a teenager
Little late to the thread but really enjoying your posts. Curious on your thoughts if you don't mind:
As a philosophy newbie myself, could it be a lot of this discussion/debate is due to people having no exposure to the metaphysical concepts of objectivity/subjectivity? It seems a bit portion of your argument is that people who believe we can achieve ai sentience are already committed to a (leap of faith) absolute belief in the "physicalist" model/understanding of the universe?
Also regarding the idea of a "Unified Theory of Everything", do you believe in this as a possibility? Is having that as a goal or destination in of itself a representation of a particularly misguided "physicalist" way of thinking that many people are already committed to/trapped within?
This is so so widespread that I am very curious about it.
One hypothesis I have is that people believe their sexual inclinations are completely separate from social and cultural influence. That the sexual preferences are somehow innate or beyond influence--even though they clearly are heavily influenced.
At the very least fucking keep it to yourself that you don't date black women or prefer dating east asian women you weirdo agghhh
Really appreciate the explanation and links, did not mean to come off quite as dismissive as I did
What are people's favorite Fincher movies? Gone Girl really didn't do it for me and I wonder if this The Killer movie will be similar
Is it that unheard of for a cis hetero man to recognize this dumb country's rampant misogyny and the utter arbitrary-ness of gender identifiers (e.g. dresses aren't for men!) ?
I pray it's a bit otherwise this site is mostly full of delusional contrarians.
The stupid Robert Downey Jr picture works on me every single time I don't know whyyyy. It tickles me so
The hugely disproportionate income and social/cultural capital received by these super good "shape rotator" dweebs in modern society is precisely why and how they get to this level of unexamined smug fart sniffing.
