Materialism is stupid. Nothing can ever prove it because Reality is Infinite. It doesn't matter if the brain produces consciousness because the brain IS Consciousness. Everything that produces consciousness is Consciousness. Of course Consciousness produces Consciousness. If a rock falls on your head and takes away your consciousness, that's Consciousness.

That does not follow.

I challenge you to invent a new concept or word related to our work here. Anything related to self-actualization, consciousness work, spirituality, politics, philosophy, psychology, mind, psychedelics. Example: Leftsplaining Example: Epistemic Scoundrel Rules: Come up with a catchy, memorable name for it. Define what your word means and what it does not mean. Give a few examples of how the word can be used. Explain why this new concept is meaningful, important, or useful. Be creative. I will feature any excellent submissions on my blog, with credit.

Democracy is when socialists do things. FoxNew-pilled.

Maybe, maybe.

The division is that you don't need QM to bake a cake.

Watch out. Next time you sleep we might all ascend into the Singularity and you will wake up all alone.

Ethnicity is more fundamental than nation. This is universally true.

There is no good evidence that it is.

Quantum is not BS. Just don't apply it where it don't belong. Don't invoke quantum mechanics for baking a cake.

That proves my point. Persian is a loose ethnic cultural identity, similar to Slavic. Slavic is not a nation-state.

Why is that quantum? You are projecting that onto it.

There never was a single Persian identity. It is was a chaotic mess of various peoples from around the region. You say "true identity" but others in the region would disagree that your identity is there identity.

It is subtle so it is hard to put into words. I would have to think about how to articulate it properly.

Persian is a collection of ethnic groups and a culture. Iran is a nation-state. Persia is not a state.

You are right that biology is way more intelligent than science knows. But that is not a fundamental obstacle. I don't see any connection to QM. That is purely speculative.

If Don Beck was still alive and speaking, Israel would kill him.

Do you have any proof that consciousness requires quantum effects? No. That is just some sloppy guess Roger Penrose made.

It has changed me in permanent ways that are not even at the level of state. State is not the only factor.

I don't fail to see it. You guys love assuming I'm a fool.

There is probably not even a need for AI to go quantum. People love to invoke quantum for no good reason.

Yeah, that is normal because being alive is about dreaming. Don't beat yourself up for dreaming. That is the point of life. You are never going to be as conscious sober as you are on a 5-MeO peak. That is not practical.

Did biology solve your syntax gap? If yes, why can't digital do the same? If no, why can't digital step around it too?

If atoms solved it once, they can solve it again. Don't forget that your problems maybe only be problems inside your paradigm.

It is simpler to not assume.
