I believe we have limited free will. We are capable of contemplating and being aware of aspects of choices. We can also do things like meditation, therapy and journal writing to help us have insight into our unconscious processes. The process of reflection and self examination helps you to become more aware of your unconscious processes and therefore have a little bit more control over them. But the process is never complete. You can only do your best.
1:03:16 This doesn't sound silly at all to me, it's how I remained sane dealing with the insanity around me. Several times in my life, when all the stressors of the modern world have me nearly to my breaking point, I have gone off to be alone for a few days and talk things through with myself. And, yes, I know I would appear crazy to anyone seeing me walking around, fully animated, talking out loud in heated debates and long-winded philosophical discussions with myself, that's why I go deep in the woods or far out on desolate beaches. Fish nor fowl don't seem to mind, and non-human mammals only seem mildly amused.
I like channel hes smart and so original just record 10 hours worth of content and than just keep posting the same videos over and over again with different names and background music
It's strange to talk about the brain as if it's a conscious entity outside of the "self", my brain is part of me. If it has made a decision before I'm consciously aware of it, would that not be akin to the "gut feeling?" If my brain makes a decision, then it doesn't discount the idea of free will, it just discounts that idea that we have total conscious control over the decision. At the end of the day, my brain's autonomous decision making skills are still the result of decades of my experiences and are thus "my" decision.
I had the same thought. So this "brain" made a decision, and the self is aware of it at a later time. So the self is not the brain? What is it then, and where does it reside?
At the end of the day I thinks its more like, you are chemicals mixed together, you is just a comination of atoms. Your choice to choose the appel is like the earth rotating the sun. We think we are different that we are something, but we are just the universe we are just atoms together and I think thats nice cause I feel there has to be something wrong in that theory that I am different, that everything I know is'nt just atoms hitting eachother in a way but I cannot prove it.
And fluoride in water good! Big pharma good! Thank god we dont have it in water here and stoped using fluoride tooth paste for 8 years now and teeth good! some of the content used to be very good but this is too blue pill.
You are your psyche and not the thought process in your brain. Freedom is not being possible to do everything in every situation for then there is no color or personality and you are nothing. For me freedom is the feeling that sets in when you have unfolded yourself. Fulfill your destiny and do not try to break it. But great video still, thanks. Determined is wrong word for expecting human behaviour for we operate for psychological rules. Sorry for my deeply calculatable comment :-)
I dont like the idea of non existence of free will because many of us are confuse with the word free means, free will doesnt mean free from will it means you are free to choose, also we are not atom, we are made of atom. its way to mechanical for us to think we are not part of the nature but to understand the objective reality we can have postulate. sorry for bad english
We are atoms, though. Being "made up of atoms" and "being atoms" has no real difference in linguistic terms. Everything is atoms. Trees are atoms/Nature is atoms. It is not mechanical at all.
I know but do u what i mean by postulate? what is this consciousness even mean then. and i know what an atom also means. this is about philosophy u live in deterministic world, you robot or bot whatever!!!
The research about decision making actually leaves a lot to be dsired when probed more precisely and compared with conflicting evidence, still part of the picture though.
No one is here of their own free will. People who deny free will are much more empathetic and compassionate. Ours is the only species that considers such things. We all want//desire the same thing…a sound mind. Our species offers the planet absolutely nothing. Just some facts…..
It’s interesting reading the comments by people so resistant to this idea, but having no good reason whatsoever for disagreement. Indoctrination is a very powerful force, that’s for sure.
You aren't your brain your your mind your brain does things you have actually no control over like breathing or reacting to a hot stove or your fight or flight response the brain can be altered and thus influence the mind which inherently thinks it has free will but in actuality does not

I have put several cats in boxes, and then I opened them they are always alive, but I am CERTAIN that if I leave the damn things there for a month they'll be dead when I open it... the explanation of the physicists seems incomplete and as simplification of something they KNOW is not possible.
@DJLuvMuffin go have a look at where they source the fluoride, at which fluoride compound they use in water supplies and whether it is bioavailable or toxic in that form. That's the wonderful world we live in today. You can find these alarming things out without too much trouble. It's just that so few people bother to ask the right questions and just do as they are told.
@magicastridjane try and form a syllogism. The fluoride in water is sourced by _______ This is different to other elemental fluoride because _________ Therefore, this difference means it is not bioavailable You can do it. Ideas can be formed. Arguments can be made. We dont need to run to the internet. We have logic
41:15 Why how I feel time would even matter? I feel like I have a free will too and that is irevelant. We know from wifi signals? Man what are you talking about?
That’s some bs for several of the “myths” or “conspiracy theories”. But obviously people won’t believe me. So just research them each yourself. Some are true, sure, but then some are half truths or flat out inaccurate. Weather that’s up to the YTer’s ignorance or their siding with one side, to reduce/limit the hate they may receive, who can say. Question everything.
This was hard to watch, im at 36 minutes and can't contain to comment, you think you're smart because you take a claim like a conspiracy theory and buy the first thing a debunker say? Why not using a bit of critical own thinking and experience before spit whatever a debunker say as if it is the ultimate truth? I was thinking higher of you, but this episode is painful so far. You don't leave space for doubt is like you decided what is the ultimate truth by very lazy research... Very disappointed. Hope the rest makes it up for the first 36 min that were pretty poor.
@@ReTautica ok I'll make it more clear for you, he is saying that fluoride is beneficial for you because in the year I don't know when when it was introduced in I don't know what city, there was a significant % of decrease in dental diseases. Now that could also be for other reasons such as perhaps a campaign of awareness in dental care or could be easily a straight lie, you know as when COVID happened they bombarded us with % and numbers, btw (I'm sure he takes his monthly COVID booster judging from some of the "facts" he mentioned in this video. Usa a country that has one of the lowest standards in the food safety of the "first world countries" suddenly say that adding fluoride is healthy for the teeth, let's even say that it is, does that mean that it doesn't have any harmful effect? How come in Europe and other countries they don't add any fluoride in the water if is so good for health? Btw I'm not saying that is one way or another, because I don't know but I know that there's a lot of fuckery in the world and that the powers at be not necessarily have best interest in your health, otherwise how come the USA has no free healthcare like in Europe? Also is very narrow for someone who allegedly dissects topics and presenting as critical thinking that take such a stand as if it was the ultimate truth without going deep on the subject and not leaving space for doubt, just mentioning the first result he find in a debunking search. Same goes for the chemtrails, just saying that chemtrails are just contrails is so lazy. I have travelled and lived in lots of countries and big cities I can tell you places that they don't have those kind of "contrails" in the sky that remain for hours and spread in all the sky. Once again I have my own opinion which definitely differs from the first debunker of Google search, I differ from my own experience and observation, and however that way I don't claim to have the ultimate truth on the subject. In these kinds of subjects he promoted very poor critical thinking. He presents as if the government and the pharma industry loves you dearly. If you still don't understand I can explain better.
This whole channel has fallen off so bad the past few years. All the content seems completely AI generated and super corporate now, there is no soul left.
It's not all AI generated, it takes effort to synch all these videos with the voiceover.. notice how fast the video transitions are on it. While you may not like this style, it nevertheless makes for great content for many people.
@@dailyreactive Ive been following this channel for years and the content has lost most of its soul, it feels like AI generated corporate slop now compared to what it used to be. I cant argue against that some people still like it, but Ive seen the same opinion circulating around comments on this channel for a while so I know Im not alone in thinking this.
Not that simple... it is more like "pick one" or you might prefer to NOT pick any of the choices, available... unless those are the only two choices. Intentionally NO picking from the available things is a choice in itself.
There is a difference between a natural reaction and a conscious decision, though. You can choose to keep your hand in a flame, but your subconscious reaction will be to immediately pull away. One of those is safer for us, but if you need to pull something important out of a fire, the subconscious needs to be overridden. There ARE two selves within us.
Not really. Good example would be that we know emotions are subconscious. However ‘feelings’ are usually conscious. You can not control your emotions but you can learn to control your feelings. Emotions will always be there but feelings are more about your attitude and the way you react to the emotion. So you can learn to master feelings but you can’t master emotions cos they just exist subconsciously
I’m genuinely a little heartbroken over this. A channel I’ve championed for years just went ahead and threw logic-and, integrity-in the Loo FLUORIDE in public water is good for us? Pharma companies are “just trying their best”? WTF This reeks of a sell-out move so strong I can smell it through the screen. 🫠 I used to believe in this channel. I TRUSTED them. Shared their content like they were the gospel of good sense.I feel dumb with the giant slap of “We love Big Pharma . Nah. I’m out. What’s worse is knowing how many people look up to their content. That kind of reach, that kind of trust-requires much more responsibility with the content being published, and I had thought they knew this. Feels like betrayal. I’m unsubbing. And it sucks, because I genuinely admired them. But this video felt shady AF.
It is scientifically proven that Fluoride DOES have the health benefits described and much of cancer research is done outside of big Pharma. And while we’re at it vaccinations, (the latest conspiracy theory pond to swim in) have saved millions of people from death or disability.
a void that gained consciousness for a short period of time
So many opinions presented with certitude as facts.
Knowing what I am going to choose 0.3 before I say it is just lag does not mean that I don't have a freewill.
I believe we have limited free will. We are capable of contemplating and being aware of aspects of choices. We can also do things like meditation, therapy and journal writing to help us have insight into our unconscious processes. The process of reflection and self examination helps you to become more aware of your unconscious processes and therefore have a little bit more control over them. But the process is never complete.

Most people's "goals" are not goals at all, they are immediate or near necessities, for the VERY near future in their lives, not of others' lives.

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. Rush - Freewill
I wish this was less aggressive
