    Whether or not you’re “really” a real person, or a brain in a jar, or a butterfly dreaming you’re Zhuangzi, you and me and everyone else are still “people” we should respect.

    Wrestling with the unfalsifiable nature of reality is something all thought traditions have dealt with, and I’d argue that you’re not really an adult in 2025 if you haven’t contemplated that all you know could be a hallucination.

    The screwier question always becomes “if this is a dream , what if you’re not the dreamer?”

      This is a God dream, this is a God dream

      This is everything" 🎶

          He’s just mentally broken (and was always a bit frail, but his experience with Hollywood finally destroyed him) and hates the Ashkenazi lawyers that messed with his money, from what I understand, so he said some stupid and obviously morally wrong things because he is and always has been childish as well (“a 38 8-year-old with rich n* problems”). He’s not out there actually promoting/having a hand the death of a whole innocent community like Bibi, lol.

            Dude literally made a song called “Heil Hitler,” not to mention his “HH88” shirt he sold on his site.

            The guy’s a fucking Nazi, stop apologizing for him.

              Oh, I wasn’t up to date with all of that, my bad. He’s been off his rocker for a second, but this is a more financially motivated move which makes it all planned and really yucky and immoral. I miss the old Kanye. 😒
