Thoughts please, It's going to take a long time to understand the history of all the concepts, how they came about and why they became unfavourable.
Do you have any good arguements against reductive physicalism? is there any "element of reality" not captured by the "universal wave equation"
and if there is no such thing as wave function collapse, what for identity? ~10^100 splits by the time you finish a sentence, fuck.
And what is emergence and why do top physicists think qualia could be an emergent property of a turing machine? Ahh!

I want to nail some definitions, can we tone down on the eastern spice?
