@roydherbert ICYMI, here’s an oldie but goldie. https://t.co/BdPJS4PF2s
See Donald Hoffman's Interface Theory of Perception. His theory argues that perceptions direct behavior toward survival and reproduction, not truth. We’re wired for survival and reproduction, not fact-finding. https://t.co/pnsIFbKvNf

The ongoing #COVID19 pandemic has shown that our perception is not always aligned with reality. As humans, we have evolved perceptual systems prioritizing fitness and survival over truth.

"We find that veridical perceptions are routinely dominated by nonveridical strategies tuned to fitness. ..., a perceptual strategy favored by selection is best thought of not as a window on truth but as akin to a windows interface of a PC." #ufotwitter ht

The world is so malleable that an event can be interpreted in two opposite ways depending on the price movement. Priceformation > information Truth is irrelevant. Function of fitness (survival) is what matters. “Perception is an adaptive interface”
THREE. Throughout the evolution of vision, “fit” perceptions (facilitating survivally and reproductively advantageous behaviour) have likely outcompeted “truthful” perceptions almost always. How big is the gap between what we see versus what there is? htt

@chaosprime @default_friend consciousness is the fundamental Oneness of the universe which matter instantiates in a particular pattern resulting in our individualized experience something like a cross between advaita vedanta and Hoffman's Interface Theory
iow, the best explanation for why we have phenomenal consciousness is because the "us" that is feeling and acting is a part of God that's been severed in its connection from other parts, and this is experienced as the ordinary world we know - also see http

Dragonfly vision has a simple trick to find water: Find horizontally polarized light reflections. Unfortunately for the dragonfly, oil slicks and shiny tombstones also reflect such light. Their perceptual strategy normally works, but here it can be fatal
