This Thing is Hallucinating your Reality
At least it is hallucinating mine!
I am sick of confusions. I want to really see the reality.
No, I am not talking about metaphysical reality where I question whether god or the physical world really exists.
Nor am I talking about a spiritual or scientific reality where I ask if I can really move that tree with my energy.
I ask if I can see myself and the world in terms of day-to-day whats and whys.
I am concerned about the actions and the reasons behind those actions. Of: my body, mind, the tree outside, the people around, dogs, rainfall, birds, lake, computers.
Right now I don’t want to know about the realities of blood, synapses, photosynthesis, functionalism, electrons, etc. I want to know of ways in which I can see the reality of myself and the world in terms of what we do and why. From the behavioral level — let’s say.
I want to know if the person sitting on the street outside for three hours is really a criminal. I want to know if the idea of AI replacing humans is not really a genius marketing masterstroke. I don’t want to know if my blood is really red. Or god is really dead.
