I would add that the global earth is still a “collective” by definition. Just “zoom out” they say. It’s just another 🐢.

Yeahhhhh but... Do water molecules care if the glass is a collective?

The glass might care 😄 and I am not sure if molecules have feelings. You should write about that metaphysics one of these days.

Just read Sheldrake, he's got it covered

I don’t know who that is.

Rupert Sheldrake. Used to pal around with McKenna... Of the Terrence variety. Talks about morphic resonance.

Ah, yet another reference to the allegory of the cave.

“Bad religion is arrogant, self-righteous, dogmatic and intolerant. And so is bad science. But unlike religious fundamentalists, scientific fundamentalists do not realize that their opinions are based on faith.”

Nice find.

Did he say that? That's great

The idea that we’re part of a collective memory makes sense. All this impulsive reaction to words like “communism” or “capitalism” or “authoritarianism”. We may not know the words, yet we feel it “a priori”.
