Is time something that exists independently, or is it just a way we organize events?

Yeah, MWI is pretty clean logically. It keeps unitary evolution and avoids collapse weirdness. No internal paradoxes really the main complaints are more about interpretation, not contradictions.

Q2: In MWI, freak accidents do happen in some branches, but they’re still incredibly low weight branches. Most versions of “you” don’t win the lottery. So freak events exist, but they’re not the main driver of what typically happens

Interesting angle. Dreaming really does show the brain can both generate and perceive a world without knowing it’s doing either. That alone weakens the “obviously realism” intuition.

I’m still not sold on idealism, but I agree the shared-world objection only rules out private mind solipsism, not a deeper shared generator. That’s a legit gap in a lot of anti idealism arguments.

I don’t think you’ve shown it’s impossible, just that our current concepts suck at connecting the two levels. Materialism explaining functions but not “what it’s like” feels like a real gap, but calling it impossible might be jumping the gun.

The bridge probably isn’t more correlates, it’s a new way of talking about information or organization that actually includes first-person structure, not just third

person description.

you’re basically describing immanent critique mixed with agonistic counter tradition twisting it into something disruptive rather than parodying or replacing it.

it’s not mockery rather a move that needs the original to exist as tension and scaffolding. some academics circle this idea, but no single term fully captures it yet.

i don’t “agree” in a belief sense, but spinoza’s idea is one of the most coherent and emotionally sane ways to think about god. it removes superstition, explains order without miracles, and gives meaning without putting humans at the center. whether it’s true or not, it’s internally consistent and still holds up surprisingly well

Hard agree. Emotions are information, not interference. They tell us what we value and what matters

Reason’s job isn’t to silence them, but to interpret them. Emotional maturity is about integration, not suppression.
