A while back, we chatted about how you the person is just a piece of software that is an interface for the rest of the silent mind to the world.
One of the consequences of this is that most of the learning we go through is not so much learning but closer to calibration of a neural network in a process that happens to the silent mind beyond our control.
And, our job as the software located in the pre-frontal cortex is to provide a firewall against new information and to justify the opinion that our silent brains have already made.
Scroll through an entire thread of software located in the pre-frontal cortex work it's way through justifying what their silent brains already believe and simultaneously act as a firewall against any new information.
We do that here as well. However, what is fascinating is that once you apply a different visual model and use different labels for a conversation where everyone yelling is basically just ignorant, it become REALLY engaging because you can start to see the mechanics of their neural networks actually do the work. Where we used to think people were just ignorant, we now can see it as a normal survival mechanism of a neural network built for a hyper social animal living in a really complicated world.
It also gives as unsights in to how to actually change peoples minds. And, it isn't by conversation.
