What Happens in a Philosopher's Brain? | Philosophy Tube

What is bias? How does your brain affect free will, argument, and thinking? Let's look at "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahnemann - if we want to study philosophy we need to know a bit about brains, biology, and psychology too! Subscribe!

Today is 6/4/2020, and protests are currently happening in all 50 of the United States and several other countries as well. This is the 9th day of protests. There are riots, beatings, shooting of tear gas and rubber bullets. This video explains so much about people. Right now, I'm extraordinarily concerned about the Alt-Right in general, including the Boogaloo Bois, the incels, the antisemites, and those who are gearing up for war. This explains their brains. This also explains the brains of the people who watch Fox News or One America Network. And yes, yes, I know it explains my brain, too, and the brain of every other human. But since I'm concerned about those groups in particular right now, this video was comforting because it gave me insight into something I did not understand. I believe that is the point of this channel, so thank you; you've done your job.

Haha, my brain's stupid snap answer to "what's the theme of Moby Dick?" was "killing a whale"... I mean, one could argue... but that's not a great answer.

Very informative video. Largely irrelevant nitpick, but Daniel Kahneman's name is pronounced, "KAH-neh-man" rather than "KANE-man" :)

Also, another interesting point I've come across about the CRT (questions like the ball and bat problem), is that people score significantly higher on the test if you just *make the print smaller* -- forcing the test-taker to engage their system 2 to discern what is even written.

So women who stand behind the "bathroom bill" are thinking with system 1. Some people take the time to look at the problem more completely and see a disaster in the making for women if such bills go through legislation.
