And again, this is probably the smartest living human, has spent decades looking into it, and his result was “I dunno, maybe look at this?” So if anyone ever tries to tell you that anyone knows what consciousness is. You know they’re talking out of their ass.
As long as capitalism drives science, we’ll never know. Because there’s no money in finding it out, and we’re at the point of looking at freaking quantum wave collapse inside of neurons, it’s not exactly something that’s easy or cheap to investigate.
I just want to point out that there has been philosophy before capitalism, and a lot of clever people looked into the question of consciousness without capitalist interests. As such, a lot of modern science doesn’t really focus on it; but nevertheless, there’s a lot of clever thoughts about it. Like in chinese buddhism, there’s views of what consciousness means in sometimes great detail that really make sense to me. Saying we don’t know anything about consciousness because modern science doesn’t is wrong, i think.
