@georgetakei People like this Andreessen fellow are the people who Socrates went after in his dialogues, and who eventually persecuted Socrates.

@georgetakei This is just more of the "empathy is bad" crowd's absolute bullshit.
@georgetakei @nurglerider …until you start mocking them!

@FrancoisPrague @gimulnautti @georgetakei I can't keep up. When I was young, thinking was gay.

Q: Are you leading a just life?
A: Never thought about it. I just do stuff randomly. Introspection is woke. My spirit animal is a jellyfish.

@StarkRG @georgetakei i used to say philosophy is what differentiates humans from animals, but we always dehumanize behaviour we dislike and we have to acknowledge that these individuals who don't introspect or don't think or else ate indeed also humans. I'm not even sure psychiatrists have names for them, there simply are different types of minds.
@dwalin_7 @georgetakei Human is our species, I'm not saying someone who is truly incapable of introspection isn't human, I'm saying they're not *people.* And I'm not talking about someone who doesn't introspect, but someone who actually *can't.* If you don't introspect, purposefully analysing and modifying your own behaviour, then you're giving up any semblance of free will, you're essentially an automaton reacting to external stimuli. If you actually *can't* do that, then you simply *are* one.

@georgetakei FFS even the word "introspection" isn't modern. It dates back to the 17th century in English but derives from the ancient Latin "introspectus", meaning to look within. Why are these billionaires so willfully, proudly ignorant?
I'm starting to think some of them are philosophical zombies - in that they have no inner lives - which perhaps explains why they think chatbots might be people and other humans are expendable.
@ApostateEnglishman @georgetakei If the ultra rich and their self-made billionaire power controls spoken language, they can control pretty much anything they want.

@georgetakei Socrates was an amazing footballer.

@georgetakei Yes, narcissists and psychopaths tend to not know what introspection is.

@georgetakei A 2021 study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7935085/ measuring political attitudes correlating with damage to different sections of the brain found
"...people with frontal lesions held more conservative (or less liberal) beliefs than those with anterior temporal lobe lesions or no lesions. Additional analyses predicting ideology by extent of damage provided convergent evidence that greater damage in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex—but not the amygdala—was associated with greater conservatism." -

Billionaires are sub-humans. They lack the higher functions that separate us from apes. They don't care about words or ethics. They lack imagination completely. They are fundamentally LESS THAN US.

@georgetakei I am certain he will have a lot of introspection when walking up the stairs to the guillotine.

@georgetakei I'm a bit surprised Mark didn't refer to Introspection as "woke". :-/

@georgetakei I am introspective enough to distrust introspection.

@ApostateEnglishman @georgetakei Money making money means that have no need to be introspective, assuming they are even capable of it. They've one at capitalism so we should put that one away, get another game out with a very different way of keeping score; one that doesn't reward concentrating/hording counters

No introspection, no empathy, no humanity.
