Can We Know Our Own Minds?

Should philosophy defer to science?

Deferentialists hold that if a philosophical position is inconsistent with well-established claims in science or mathematics, the position should be rejected for that reason alone.

    just because you can't introspect into 100% of your mind does not mean introspection does not work. the unconscious is pretty well established but your mind it not 100% opaque to you you know you are in pain...when you feel it if you doubt that, you have ''reasoned'' yourself into a mental disorder

    In several different eastern philosophies, awareness of direct phenomenalogical experience and the phenomonological experience itself are not the same thing (ex: "Experiencing sadness" and "Awareness of being one who is experiencing sadness" are two different states... one being a step removed from the other.) Once you are aware of yourself experiencing something you are somewhat out of the direct experience... so your experience has shifted. Under this model, there can be no awareness of having a pure internal experience, but only second-hand external examination of that experience in the field of awareness by a totally seperated observing thought that does not have the same point of view or access that the direct experience has.

    The experience of confusion and indecision seems to cast doubt on the infallibility of much of what we consider to be introspection. "I can be certain of my preference for the left sock." ...but what about all the times I can't be certain of my preference? It seems like a kind of sampling bias to only use the tiny minority of certain internal states when the overwhelming majority are not clear or certain or permenant.

    I think hypothetical imperatives are as weird as categorical imperatives. It is weird to think that there is something in reality which prescribes us to give to charity or to not murder someone. But it seems equally weird at least for me to think that there is something in reality which prescribes us to do what satisfies our wants Take for example. I want to to pass the exam If I study hard I will pass the exam. So, I ought to study hard. The conclusion cannot be inferred from the premises because the premises are purely descriptive. But I suppose it is not supposed to be an inference. My wanting to pass the exam somehow grounds that I ought to study. But I cannot understand why this is true. Maybe I am missing something. I mean why are we ought to do what fulfils our wants?

    I don't think the utilitarian position considers the change in quality of life for the future and puts the same amount of happiness for people that aren't born yet. And if we wanna talk about prevention of suffering, if nobody is having children, there is no next generation to suffer. I think that any argument that doesn't take into account the difference in the value of life in the present and future is flawed because anti natalism was born as a response to the economic and environmental forecasts that we are seeing.

      I'm inclined to think that this is due to incompetence rather than conspiracy. From what I've read, postal voting in the UK is more popular among the elderly, and they tend to vote Conservative. Indeed, they seem to be pretty much the only ones still voting Conservative.

    Even though it's illegal, having someone else fill out your ballot does seem to be within the base level principles of democratic participation. Surely the proxy statutes are to prevent fraud (such as a child filling out a ballot of a parent that never planned to vote or would have voted opposite what the child fills in), and because it's hard to put the onus of preventing fraud on individual people, you do an institutional norm instead, making it illegal for anyone to fill out your ballot unless you do the proxy process, even though it's still the case that there could be illegal proxies that aren't fraudulent. Hopefully the implicature is clear here.

    I know that you can take your postal vote to a poling station on an election day and vote therewith. I assume that an appointed proxy can take your postal vote to a poling station on an election day and vote therewith. Presumably, much of this will be at the discretion of an election officer. Perhaps (a photocopy of) your ID and playing this video will be persuasive. I can only recommend that you appoint as your proxy someone that you also trust to have access to your mail in order to pick up voting card. Please let me know whether this is successful, if indeed you attempt this.

      It's illegal for anybody else to fill out the ballot paper on a postal vote. I can nominate somebody to vote by proxy, but that's a separate process, and in order to do that I would need to cancel my postal vote first. Unfortunately, it's too late to cancel the postal vote. So I'm out of luck!
