   Yeah it does no good to tell me I'm crazy, that ship sailed 1K books or so ago. At a certain point in studying how history actually unfolded, how capitalism and power actually work, what function propaganda serves, and what really makes the world go round - you sorta lose the ability to engage with a world whose function is utterly dependent on not knowing those things. And if "crazy" isn't about not being able to agree with most of the ppl around you about reality, I dunno what else it could be

     So, a human brain is really good at filtering shit out.
     We get like 3% if that of sensor stimuli.
     We think we can handle ...EVERYTHING

     But it's like drinking from the firehose of doom.

     @n_dimension All I can say is that A) I have a good memory B) the 3% (presumably) that I retain has isolated me and C) the machine having every waking moment of most people's lives to work with sorta ensures they'll get the largest portion of that 3%.

     So I don't think this changes anything I was saying.

     @AnarchoNinaWrites Your point is well taken. Seeing reality clearly does not make you crazy. It makes you unfortunately sane.
