Philosophy : Freedom is just an illusion…

Freedom is just an illusion…

…as every living being's brain is wired to react one way and one way only from any kind of stimuli.

For example if you decide to have a cup of coffee, you didn't actually make that decision yourself. Your brain had a reaction and made you have that coffee. You had no actual choice in the matter, since no matter what happens, your brain reacts one way. Therefore you were always going to have that coffee.

Sorry to ruin your day.

Just because I'm not on THEIR side, doesn't mean I'm on YOURS.

I thought it was just another word for nothing left to lose.

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

Maybe you're right.

Just because I'm not on THEIR side, doesn't mean I'm on YOURS.

Nothin' ain't worth nothin', but it's free.

When Bobby sang the blues

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

Did you know that Bobby was originally a girl? No…not like gender reassignment…but a song totally about a girl name Bobby

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

The only version I heard for years was by Gordon Lightfoot so I always thought of Bobby as a female. I know the Janis Joplin version but I disregard it because it's Janis Joplin.

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

Alrighty then!

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

Kris Kristofferson wrote it I think 😊😊

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

Yup…and sang it

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

You're not ruining my day.

You're correct. Ultimately, it doesn't matter, though. The secret is to live as if the world isn't deterministic.

Ask yourself this: what would a truly free world actually look like? Would you want to live like that?

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

Nah nigga, there is no escaping trashy whores. They run the world.

Re: Freedom is just an illusion…

Well that sucks!
