    Nope, still smoothbrain, “consciousness” is not defined at all. It’s just a word that nobody actually understands, outside of something like “he was knocked unconscious” — the Philosophy of Mind is a huge circle jerk where scholars have spent decades publishing papers yelling at each other as they try to figure out if consciousness exists at all, is part of a soul given to us by God, is an emergent property of complexity, or just plain stupid. You can’t prove you yourself are conscious, let alone anything else. Or maybe the whole universe is conscious because it’s one big system. Oh well, at least the professors get jobs

      You don’t even have to attack conciousness. Their argument is “I have property ‘A’. I am human. Therefore all humans have property ‘A’”

      It’s pretty shit lol
