yeah but the sense of self

I think old man JBP outlined this very argument himself

the workings of it etc

is different imo

We don't know

Who here is for Democrats and who for republicans?

i mean it might be created by structure of the body

but its separate from the body

Republicans can meme, Democrats can't

Republicans > Democrats

But there are no proof of it being inmaterial

Thats just asuming things you don't know

you don't get me

@ThreeOfOne only reason to choose your vote 😜

I'm not for the Uniparty establishment.

i'm talking about data

i'm quite sure it's not material

information

Dude

Thats a concept

Not a real thing

The brain is complex maybe let’s keep it at that

We define data

but what is the consciousness then ?

Brain or mind?

But the data itself doesnt exist

@Montgomereeeee I think that our actions are driven by much older subconscious / unconscious subsystems of the brain and when those actions align with our conscious desires we experience an illusion of agency

BRAIN 🧟‍♀️

can you prove its body ? if so does that mean you're pretty much dying all the time

It's a deffinition we give to something to understand it

what do you think free will is?

and just copying yourself ?

you prolly don't have any cells you had when you were a kid

so basically, free will is the sense that we control our actions because we happened to do what we wanted at a given moment

ybasically all of them died

The brain is complex but not impenetrable.

Nope but since there is no proof that it's not and every other thing that derivates from the body is the body

that means you're not you that you were born, you're just a copy

but there are various mental disorders where this mechanism breaks horribly like schizophrenia

There is literally no (real) data on how our consciousness works.

Free will is volition
