I also think people do things for different reasons

2019-12-18 18:35:16 UTC  

so it's not like you could answer it like that

2019-12-18 18:35:55 UTC  

yes ofc, and again this is a probability scale of likelihood, not a certainty

2019-12-18 18:36:03 UTC  

I didn't reply to you btw

2019-12-18 18:36:27 UTC  

for example you don't think of new ways to turn on the lights at home.

2019-12-18 18:36:48 UTC  

I know I could have spent my life in many different ways, still with the same want for some things

2019-12-18 18:36:56 UTC  

but there are also things I would never do I think

2019-12-18 18:36:57 UTC  

lol

2019-12-18 18:37:30 UTC  

I think about light switches every time I turn it on (not really)

2019-12-18 18:37:35 UTC  

Well with the right kind of brain tumor

2019-12-18 18:37:39 UTC  

never say never

2019-12-18 18:38:12 UTC  

yes but how deep and conscious are those thoughts?

2019-12-18 18:38:37 UTC  

anway, it's people influencing people, with the opportunities you see and your wants

2019-12-18 18:40:15 UTC  

I still believe that not considering the social aspect of humans as a very strong and influential aspect of human formation and interaction is a grave mistake of those who are too deep into the biological materialism.

2019-12-18 18:40:35 UTC  

I honestly think most black people live more colorful lives (pun) than whites

2019-12-18 18:40:37 UTC  

like it's innate

2019-12-18 18:40:56 UTC  

colorful?

2019-12-18 18:41:01 UTC  

I don't follow

2019-12-18 18:41:26 UTC  

I think I would have a problem explaning that

2019-12-18 18:41:57 UTC  

like how they view their lives

2019-12-18 18:41:57 UTC  

Well I suppose it explains the bloods n crips

2019-12-18 18:42:02 UTC  

they are very colorful

2019-12-18 18:43:08 UTC  

like a white person tolerate more

2019-12-18 18:43:15 UTC  

I mean maybe, it's kinda vague but if you mean in a way like more risk taking and dangerous lifestyle choices well color me white, I don't wanna have a colorful life.

2019-12-18 18:43:34 UTC  

a little bit of that yes

2019-12-18 18:43:41 UTC  

but it's a whole package

2019-12-18 18:44:04 UTC  

a white person is more ok with having a "grey" life

2019-12-18 18:44:33 UTC  

excuse my synesthesia

2019-12-18 18:44:36 UTC  

lol

2019-12-18 18:45:07 UTC  

Yea we seem to get our kicks socializing intellectually which colorful people see as boring and dull.

2019-12-18 18:45:17 UTC  

it's a weaker need to have fun I think

2019-12-18 18:45:34 UTC  

Yes I would agree with that generally

2019-12-18 18:46:00 UTC  

@Eternal Entropy I agree that Tabula Rasa is bad and its prevalence in society has caused a lot of harm but I think a supposed "Tabula my big brain has figured everything out because muh genetics" could possibly be just as bad. Straying away from reality will fuck you up sooner or later whichever side of the pendulum you are on.

2019-12-18 18:46:05 UTC  

it's like at some point we mature to a certain level where as colorful people want to have endless childhood fun.

2019-12-18 18:46:19 UTC  

I might be a little dazzled with whites complete loss of in group preference

2019-12-18 18:46:24 UTC  

losing all our real communities

2019-12-18 18:46:27 UTC  

🤷🏿‍♂️

2019-12-18 18:47:12 UTC  

I agree boniface. "I still believe that not considering the social aspect of humans as a very strong and influential aspect of human formation and interaction is a grave mistake of those who are too deep into the biological materialism.

2019-12-18 18:47:37 UTC  

Socialisation is an emergent property in humans from our genetics

2019-12-18 18:47:41 UTC  

HOWEVER

2019-12-18 18:47:57 UTC  

they serve to inform us of threats in the environment
