Sure and just disregard everything else I said. The words internet and meme were not even used together in a sentence when I had this thought.
instrumentality is bad because enlightenment is a myth and dissolving ego boundaries is just declawing the beast
>Stop calling everything a meme
It was literally a "meme" before the Wojak NPC thing with that one xkcd comic, but even then 'meme' can still be used if you're just using it to refer to idea which is the literal definition of a meme.
>This has been a talking point in philosophy for hundreds of years, was Descartes just memeing?
Where did Descartes even remotely say anything along those lines?
>Sorry if wanting to have a conversation deeper than hows the weather, whatd you watch on tv last night, did you see beckys tits makes me a gay boring pseud
I mean, if you really were referring to cogito ergo sum then you're absolutely a fucking pseud who is just slapping philosophy into your posts without understanding it to give yourself an air of intellectualism despite being a braindead retard who browses Yas Forums
Okay midwit
Intrumentality was what people probably view as heaven, its not bad but I think people get bogged down in the idea that everyone there would feel like everything here does
>enlightenment is a myth and dissolving ego boundaries is just declawing the beast
Elaborate
It's bad for people who want to live and watch animu.
