Bruh............... Wtf your hurting my brain more I should stop reading these comments holy shrimp

Daniel Carlyle - 2020-03-05

CryptoNite that’s not how it works. Did you watch the video.

Maisie Quinn - 2020-03-13

I don't know if that would work, mainly because in my experience, favorite colors change quite often. For me, it was red, then purple, then pink, then blue, then literally every color except for pink, then orange, then blue again, and right now it mostly flip-flops between purple and blue. I used to love orange, now I don't. I used to hate pink, now I don't. My point is that most people's favorite color changes at least once in their lifetimes.

Salty Bonsai - 2020-03-18

That was what I was gonna say! N

Take me a 100% seriously - 2020-03-21

But we won't. Think it this way. If i say My favorite color is red. And you say too. And i show you My red. you will still see what would Be My green. But i would see whats my red.
And i would see My red as My red and your red as my red.
While you would see your red as your red and My red as your red

I experienced the “Sally-Anne” test in my life. My cousin was about 5 years old. And she kept asking me questions such as “Remember when we went to * insert any place * ?” But she was the only one who has been there. She assumed that I know everything she knows and that I experienced the exact same things she did.

JSFin - 2020-03-15

But if she remembers doesn't she think you remember too? So why did she ask?

Igor - 2020-03-15

JSFin, she was not expecting an answer, her questions were more like this “Remember when we did this/went there? Ahh, that was a good time”. Those were a sort of rhetorical questions

Bryson B - 2020-03-14

Thats called solipsism

gose - 2020-03-18

Richard Matthews - 2020-03-21

I always thought I'm the real human and everyone else were hullicinations that come to help and give information. When I'm in one place, I dont know what's going on in the other place. I'm M.I.A from that location so everything there never happened. As far as I know it problem never happened over there. It's odd how you can think of someone and a few minutes to a day later you end up seeing them or talking to them on the phone. Maybe if I never thought of it, I would have never saw or talked to that someone.

Bryson B - 2020-03-22

Y'all have really never heard of Solipsism have you. Read some philosophy. As well as Descartes evil demon though experiment. These concepts have been explored deeply

Bryson B - 2020-03-22

I think therefore I am, the point of that entire phrase is to prove the only thing you can prove exists is your own consciousness. Nothing else, and no one else's consciousness.

Salvlizard - 2020-02-23

I had this same theory when i was a child 10 years ago. It was mind blowing thinking about it. My friends didnt understand what i was meaning at the time i shared my theory with them.

I tought that if i would learn that red is a hot color i would automatically associate this color with the color of for example fire.

But if fire appears green for me, and green is in fact MY red. I would automatically associate green as hot!

But it doesnt matter because i can not describe this color in another way. So the color red can appear for me as green, for my friend as pink and my mother as blue. But we all learned that this is red and we would accept this and wouldnt ask. (Sorry i am german, so if you find some errors im sorry 😅 )

Akim-Youssouf Lachance Zoromé élève - 2019-12-21

violets are violet. there is a difference between purple and violet, and there sure is a damn difference between purple and blue. you are correct.

When I was young I thought that everyone else had a third person perspective and I was the only one viewing the world in first person (honestly still idk about this)

This happened because I happen to have a very cultured uncle, he had shown me the world of games and internet, which probably made me perceive things differently (just like in a game has third person and first person).

If Sally knows Anne well enough that she would trust her with a cookie, then Sally should also know Anne's general tendency to be comedic and act in ways the correspond with that tendency, such as switching the cookie's position, as a joke. If Sally knows Anne as well as this, she would know exactly where to cookie is, because she knows that Anne is the kind of person to move it, therefore ascending the Theory of Mind. I have a hunch that the 3 year olds put under this test knew this fact, and are indeed much smarter than we could imagine them to be. Their theory of mind's are so advanced, they knew what Sally knew without knowing she knew it.
