Actually, it's the midwit imagining this rather than the moron.

@owenbroadcast If you had a tiny clone of Hitler, would you torture it?

the concept of "transferring minds" is interesting because we all take it as intuitive, because it makes logical sense, but to square it with the present modern conception of the mind and self is extremely difficult. it makes sense intuitively because what is being transferred is something like a soul or spirit - you can even see this in "science" style cartoons - rick and morty, futurama, whatever: someone uses a device to transfer themselves into another body. most people wouldn't say it this way, but what's transferred is really "the self" - the spirit of that individual. if you attempt to square this with modern conceptions of the mind, you end up in a really bizarre place. at best, in the modern worldview, "you" are patterns in your brain, and something like the continuation of your physical self over time. so, what is transferred in this modern cultural trope? the physical brain isn't transferred (this usually isn't the case, it's always via some high tech device with rays and light and electrodes and such things), so, that's out. that just leaves the patterns. this means that in situations like the below example, you're ultimately seeing a kind of trick: there's "the girl" - her brain is turned off, or something (this is really something like death), and all the patterns we associate with her (her likes, dislikes, worldview, inclinations, talking style, and so on) are then perfectly reproduced in another mind. this means that, really, when you're looking at any popular media that features something like transfer of consciousness, from an atheist scientific materialist perspective, the initial person is basically killed, and a reproduction of their mental patterns is artificially induced in another mind. that's what "the transfer" of an individual actually would be in that paradigm. but, no one sees it this way, because we all intuitively understand that something like "the soul" exists, and that's what would be transferred in such a situation - even if that's antithetical to the worldview we're pretending to inhabit.

I showed @Howlingmutant0 a video of a train approaching the camera one time and he got scared and ran away because he thought it was real.

Fun Fact: There are fewer than 400 possible three letter airport codes left, and once they’re gone, new airports will get four letter codes starting in 2031.

@AckedBraps Can I call you TaxedBrass or would that be considered deadnaming?
