I genuinely don't know how to vote on this. Both sides are valid.

My grandmother and I have completely opposite answers. Generational gap is real.

Well said. The nuance matters here.

I was firmly no until I read the question again. Now I'm not so sure.

The hard problem of consciousness is the biggest unsolved puzzle.

Indigenous cultures have known about this for thousands of years.

My parents would vote opposite to me on this. Generation gap at its finest.

@hana_t211h ago

I genuinely don't know how to vote. Both sides make compelling arguments.

@PM241h ago

This question exposes how much our environment shapes our worldview.
