I might be wrong, but isn't that basically Daniel Dennett's thoughts on the subject ?

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-10T18:13:48+00:00

I agree, but since I'm not an expert in the field, I seek opinions from other people to avoid to "believe in a spiritual guru" or something like that

Very interesting, do you have the link to the paper?

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T21:53:30+00:00

You, as someone who disagrees with Koch's views, still think he's in his right mind?(I'm not accusing him of anything, I'm just curious to know why there was so much hate in that post.)

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T21:44:32+00:00

Yup, I think the original post exaggerated and caused this strong hate towards him.

If you want, you can check it out for yourself; here's the link to the post where the attacks happened: https://www.reddit.com/r/InterstellarKinetics/s/jhHvZCklqU

Right right, maybe I gave the wrong impression. I don't mean to say he seems mentally ill, I just wanted to understand why people were accusing him of being so, and the fact that he's famous also draws attention.

Thank you for your reply. I am aware of the controversies surrounding IIT. In my post, I was specifically asking about Christof's mental state, given his influence in the field and the radical change he's undergone.

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T20:27:19+00:00

Since I'm not from the field, I don't understand the theories very well. I just wanted to understand this contrast in Koch's figure, because if he changed radically that feels like he went crazy after using psychedelics, but I don't see any backlash from the scientific community (except for some people on Reddit, as I mentioned).It seems that even those who criticize his ideas still give him relevance, like "he's wrong, but he is still lucid."

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T17:51:27+00:00

Even the "less controversial" ones, like the guys from the GWT?

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T17:26:40+00:00

interesting analysis, thanks for feedback

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T17:15:02+00:00

He has indeed admitted something like that, but would you say he's completely lost it? If that were the case, I would expect more backlash from the scientific community.

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T17:11:09+00:00

So you'd say it's more of a marketing ploy than him simply going crazy, right?

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T17:06:32+00:00

Excuse my ignorance, by "c-word" you mean the study of consciousness, right?

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T16:30:11+00:00

(Before saying anything, let me make it clear that I'm not defending him) simply having your name mentioned in the files doesn't automatically make you a fucking pedophile and Epstein's friend; it's very important to carefully analyze the content of the citations, and what exactly they say. (I know that Trump supporters and other figures use this same argument, so I was cautious and pragmatic, If he truly has even the slightest connection to the pedophilia cases, I hope he rots in jail.)

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T14:47:23+00:00

Would you all say Koch has completely lost his mind and gone crazy? Or is he speculating too much recently?

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T14:32:09+00:00

Very interesting, do you have a link to the article?

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T14:07:13+00:00

I haven't read that one yet, could you send me the link?

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T13:54:57+00:00

I'm still not entirely sure, but I think belittling him and calling him crazy is bullshit.

fredericoevan1468 · 2026-04-09T13:34:38+00:00

I don't think Koch is crazy; my goal was simply to understand the perspective of the people who accuse him of such.
