  • Doolittle vs Dennett on Consciousness

    —“You know, P language reminds me of a direction I think Danial Dennett was going with how to study consciousness (Phenomenology), but P is more complete. It was in his book “consciousness explained”.”— Adam Jacob Robert Walker

    [Y]es, well we are all subject to the same information and converging on the same solution. And I’m just the one who put it all together first. Probably because I started with ai, programming and economics instead of philosophy and psychology. So as the neurological revolution unfolded over the past twenty years I had less of a paradigm shift than the other thinkers. And I don’t have pressure to publish. So I just kept working without anchoring myself.

    —“If Dennett built more on cog/sci and less on phenomenology. Dennett also made the mistake of using colour for uniformity of qualia as opposed to geometry (ancient Greeks). The qualia of geometry is uniform; the qualia of colour is not. *Uniform across human personal consciousness.”—Andrew M Gilmour

    Well done. very few people have that insight. Nice.

  • TESTIMONY: “I had given up…”

    by Robby Thorne [I] had given up on saving Western Civilization until I found you. Because of you, I’ve gotten off the couch, away from the TV, and spend my days coordinating 2A events. Last night while I was at work, people from our small militia, basically strong armed a small town to go 2A. Still, I had a hand in it. This morning I’m in my car in the cold, waiting to see if I have motivated people in my community to get some exercise. So rather than cuss you for putting me to work, I think you for giving me something worthwhile to do, and giving me hope for the future. You might not see the fruits of your labor, but I’m starting to pick apples here in VA. You really are my hero Curt. Have a great day my friend.

    Net result is that autists take longer to develop and this is partly because of the simple increase in neurons, as well as the narrowness specialization of the brain.Hence why autism can be ‘cured’ by high investment parenting. I’m not that autistic. But I was definitely lagging.

    @ubermensch11111 @NISquadron Now I know that you actually don’t care, because you’re just an infantilist practicing a little GSRRM. But the proof is in the pudding so to speak.I built multiple successful companies, explored the world, and contributed a major innovation in the history of thought. Evidence is.

    ? Autism. I didn’t want to go to college. I felt unready, and I thought it was unnecessary. If I went, I wanted to be close to home. It was the closest engineering school. Once I got into college I studied a year of engineering, year of pre-law, and then four years of fine art.

  • Why Women Defect

    [I]n simple terms, men find greater persistence, consumptive, productive, and reproductive advantage in loyalty in pursuit of advantage despite conflict whereas women find greater persistence, consumptive, and reproductive advantage in disloyalty and avoidance of conflict. This is why women defect and why all cultures that survive prevent women from defection by limiting political participation.

  • Try to Understand My Strategy….

    [I] really don’t want to be more popular. I want P to be popular. I want US to be popular as a movement. John is doing a great job. the first generation of guys is now frighteningly competent. We have new a new guys that are doing a good job. The more it’s about ‘me’ the less it’s about ‘us’ and I want P to be about US not me. They can Alinsky-me. They can’t alinsky all of us.
