You gotta enable your gaming channels @BuddySystem

2018-09-08 22:26:02 UTC  

Or a combination of other sensory information.

2018-09-08 22:26:10 UTC

2018-09-08 22:26:27 UTC

Ever done a bunch of drugs and had an out-of-body experience?

2018-09-08 22:27:33 UTC  

I am a recovering addict so I have had a couple of those

2018-09-08 22:27:34 UTC  

Some people might feel like that all the time.

2018-09-08 22:27:36 UTC  

I know it's you Rogan, no need to hide

2018-09-08 22:27:44 UTC  

lol

2018-09-08 22:27:49 UTC  

particularly relating to research chems (2C__) and Dextromethorphan

2018-09-08 22:27:57 UTC  

And that doesn't mean they're unconscious or not having subjective experience.

2018-09-08 22:28:17 UTC  

At the time it's occurring it's 100% real (to me at least)

2018-09-08 22:28:20 UTC  

buddy system is hamilton morris

2018-09-08 22:28:24 UTC  

I did a bunch of DMT and got scared I was actually making myself stupid so I stopped.

2018-09-08 22:28:36 UTC  

heh, nah

2018-09-08 22:28:41 UTC  

ive only really done shrooms a bunch

2018-09-08 22:28:51 UTC  

I overdosed on weed

it was awesome

2018-09-08 22:28:53 UTC  

and its more of a unlocking of the mental floodgates for me

2018-09-08 22:28:54 UTC  

I'm a chronic pain sufferer so I've made some...not too great decisions when my care was being inadequately handled

2018-09-08 22:29:38 UTC  

That being said, Atkins I am sorta trying to go back and get a feel for what the discussion is about

2018-09-08 22:29:39 UTC  

I have a pet theory that people with different modes of consciousness than the one I experience are more susceptible to post-modernism.

2018-09-08 22:30:07 UTC  

The concept of "social construction" is a very, very real thing to them.

2018-09-08 22:30:27 UTC  

That's interesting to me because I mainly focus on the construction of my own behavior

2018-09-08 22:30:33 UTC  

They operate as if reality is arrived at by consensus and altering the consensus alters reality.

2018-09-08 22:30:41 UTC  

Yes, it can relate to others in real time, but that doesn't mean it's composed of others

2018-09-08 22:31:01 UTC  

That seems like confirmation bias or availability heuristics to me

2018-09-08 22:31:07 UTC  

the thing is it is real. but its a matter of how you work with that information.

2018-09-08 22:31:13 UTC  

"This is what I see, hear, and say, and so it must be"

2018-09-08 22:33:02 UTC  

I agree, but I tend to view things as more of...say...individual consciousnesses interacting in a realtime stage as opposed to the conglomeration of all those being the truth

2018-09-08 22:33:23 UTC  

the environment and our own personal reactions to it are still entirely valid regardless of the hivemind

2018-09-08 22:33:28 UTC  

its a symbiotic relationship

2018-09-08 22:33:51 UTC  

that's a good way to put it

2018-09-08 22:34:06 UTC  

There's a lot to be learned from others as well as introspection

2018-09-08 22:34:12 UTC  

as elon pointed out on rogan, you NEED other people to retain sanity.

2018-09-08 22:34:27 UTC  

if you go live alone in the woods for 1 year. you will lose your mind

2018-09-08 22:35:06 UTC  

Or you will revert to bicameralism.
