I've been tossing this stuff around in my head for over a year now.

Anything you want to talk about?

2019-02-07 04:03:13 UTC  

Oooh machine learning

2019-02-07 04:03:32 UTC  

fun stuff

2019-02-07 04:04:33 UTC  

I mean I have written a lot of books of just notes on the subject, and I think it's the best use of an interest in psychology, to go into machine learning over psychology or psychiatry

2019-02-07 04:04:40 UTC  

the 'i'm not right but i'm still right' era?

2019-02-07 04:05:00 UTC  

I'd like to get a PhD in Artificial Intelligence from Carnegie Mellon, that's a long term goal for me

2019-02-07 04:05:06 UTC  

narcisstic era

2019-02-07 04:05:37 UTC  

@Durtle02 lol you do something other be a professional furry for 24/7?

2019-02-07 04:05:42 UTC  

yes lol

2019-02-07 04:06:36 UTC  

the professional furry is only 23 hours of a day

2019-02-07 04:07:03 UTC  

30 mins for sleeping and 30 mins for gay code

2019-02-07 04:07:09 UTC  

@Fitzydog what are your ideas on it though?

2019-02-07 04:13:08 UTC  

idk, I don't have notes. Thought I'd just add my observations and thoughts to anything you've got lol

2019-02-07 04:24:41 UTC  

Hmm, let's see

2019-02-07 04:28:02 UTC  

Using the above example of Titania Mcgrath, would you say this woman possesses an individual control over each of her actions? Or would you say that the ideology she is acting out has possession over her?

2019-02-07 04:28:27 UTC  

It's a troll and/or satire account.

2019-02-07 04:28:55 UTC  

^

2019-02-07 04:28:58 UTC  

probably

2019-02-07 04:29:10 UTC  

no like, it's confirmed. It is a troll account.

2019-02-07 04:29:10 UTC  

but assuming someone actually believed what they were saying

2019-02-07 04:29:16 UTC  

sure

2019-02-07 04:29:31 UTC  

Like, the troll works because there's people that believe what she is saying

2019-02-07 04:29:37 UTC  

true

2019-02-07 04:29:46 UTC  

so for people who actually posses that mindset, which is a real mindset that exists

2019-02-07 04:29:59 UTC  

that's what I am referring to

2019-02-07 04:31:04 UTC  

do you think people who possess that mindset, do they have an individual control over their actions, or do their actions control them

2019-02-07 04:31:25 UTC  

Their actions control them

2019-02-07 04:31:35 UTC  

Titania Mcgrath is hilarious

2019-02-07 04:31:49 UTC  

They have been societally programmed to respond in such a manner

2019-02-07 04:32:23 UTC  

^

2019-02-07 04:34:09 UTC  

and for those that have gone off the deep end with the brainwashing, do you think that, let's say they were given all the attention and care needed to deprogram them, do you think they could ever develop their own ability to think for themselves

2019-02-07 04:34:18 UTC  

or are they just forever fucked at this point

2019-02-07 04:34:53 UTC  

I think we're all fucked

2019-02-07 04:35:26 UTC  

Given enough time they could be rewritten, but time is a luxury that we can ill afford

2019-02-07 04:36:19 UTC  

Yes but even if they could be rewritten, can you rewrite someone to think for themselves, especially if they are, let's say, in their 30s-40s years of age

2019-02-07 04:36:26 UTC  

I think some could but most couldn't

2019-02-07 04:36:39 UTC  

like that feminist woman that Sargon interviewed the other day

2019-02-07 04:36:57 UTC  

good luck reprogramming THAT

2019-02-07 04:37:13 UTC  
2019-02-07 04:37:38 UTC  

@KawaiiSamurai for that to happen, you would need to destroy their old persona and rebuild it from the ground up

2019-02-07 04:38:07 UTC  

you would have to remove them from their existing surroundings
