Solipsism, how you will solve it?
I don´t know how much serius i need to be for posting, but here we go. English is not my best lenguage, so try to be patient :D. I feel pretty amazed by the solypsism problem and how to solve it. Descartes Couldn´t solve it without refuting himselft —arguing that the reason couldn´t be trust, and yet, creating a whole sistem by it and saw God by it; the famous cartesian Circle—, staying at the idea of: if you couldn´t think of something, it wouldnt be yours, nor from god himselft. Schoppenhauer Couldn´t prove it completly, he say that the only way to have an normal life, with useful thougs, is to believe that others could feel the same way we do, by comparing our behavior; defining that everything would be of one will. So the question is: how you would solve solypsism ? Maybye a stupid question, but i think is good to open this section more. Pd: I use some simplyfications for the simple fact I´m still on the classic philosophers, barely stepping on Schoppenhauer and olympic skiping Kant (some info, yet no his books), and I assume this chanel would be pretty good on this themes. Also, I didn´t thought that my aplication would be public, sorry!
Can we be saved?
I constantly think about how many things people do daily that is just brain numbing and useless, like even I have problems with scrolling if I have a gap in my day, so many people don’t care that they are eating poison that companies make just because they want money, they don’t care about the health of their customers they want money, and half of the ppl I talk to ignore these facts or like they will refuse to be active and they go to McDonald’s every day and just sit and rot and they obsess over internet celebs instead of living irl, I know multiple people like this and when you mention something to them they act like your the crazy one and that it’s not that deep , they can’t even read 2 pages of a book without being board or can’t sit still and do something outside , they are depressed but will not do anything to help themselves. Can this be fixed or is this too big and we are all just gonna be dumb and fat and filled with cancer?
I've been feeling really confused
I've been thinking about non-dualism , the egg theory and ego death. (do look it up if you do not know about it much, it's very interesting). The part I'm having trouble with and am confused about , does it mean that we should treat each other like it's a different version of you ? I've been trying to love everyone around me and to love people that may not be that good people objectively which is really hard to do. I'm not sure if this should be done or not...
