For the question of: can a person exist without words? I’m assuming yes. The case study there would be anyone who is developmentally delayed to the point of non-verbal. I don’t see non-verbal adult clients all that much (they don’t have long lifespans sadly), but I have seen some. They communicate by using grunts or groans usually. They can understand some words though. Not sure if they are saying words in their own head
And no I don’t think a reflexive movement was conscious, that’s the entire point of a reflex. It is to move without having to activate the conscious part of the brain, usually because it needs to happen faster than conscious thought. There’s all sorts of ways to stimulate a nerve mechanically to cause a reflexive motion, like the old knee taps doctors do come to mind Skimmed the first video and found the subject interesting but didn’t agree with his own personal takeaways. He seemed to take away that there’s all these random things happening in my brain and it’s constantly trying to justify those to itself. That’s not how I picture consciousness, personally | ||

Alien hand is not reflexes. Most reflexes are relatively simple algorithmic nervous responses processed almost entirely in the spinal cord.
Rather, it is a collection of motor patterns. We have many complex motor patterns that have the ability to be almost entirely autonomous, things like brushing your teeth or your hair, manipulating a steering wheel, wiping your ass. You don't really think about the movements involved, the position and motion of your limbs, you just command your body to do it, like pressing a macro. Damage to specific areas of the brain can remove executive (conscious) control over these motor patterns, as we see with alien hand. I think the more interesting phenomenon is complete severance of the corpus callosum, connecting the left and right hemispheres, resulting in a human body where the left hand and right hand can be doing two completely different tasks with no awareness of what the other is doing, like two individuals living in one body.

Yeah I feel you about the G-d head and all that. I don't know what to say there really. Just that this is the way it is. This is us, all of us, the world, universe, what have you. I'll leave this: Quote:
There's room for the I. The me. The self. It's convenient. Useful. I just always question it when one of the people chattering away in my head brings it up. Try to rephrase it. In the end. All of that human face peeling is going to be temporary. It will not last forever. Conversly there is great good and caring going on simultaneously in the world self. People helping others get back on their feat. Running good business that gives back to the community. Giving uplifting and helpful messages to bring people away from suffering and hate. I personally tend to think of the face peeling stuff as the Satan self. Demonic. People who've lost their souls. Completely possessed by evil. Hatred. Fear. Anger. Unable to feel or even reason compassion anymore. In some small ways the entire human spirit is responsible for that. We have not figured out how to help these people or at least keep them from doing more soul damage. I ramble. I digress. It is way more complex than all that. More complicated then the I, me. I was a face peeling monster once inside. Now thanks to others influence, and guidance, including G-d's, and Buddha, I and we in turn suffer much less.

ooh let me try...
all is vibration. voice is vibration. was gods voice that set us in motion. light is particles and waves. so are we with our body and our voice. silence they say. shape it like this. the new old way. say it like this. why do you care so much about what i allow you to say? you are operating on way less "ego" than you might think. you dont have to split your brain in half for your left hand to be able hide from your right. the ego is like mr magoo. he is very sleepy | ||

In regards to cartel lore, it’s actually ISIS to blame. Cartels took notice of when that demon “Jihadi John” was cutting people’s heads off on camera more than a decade ago and thought it was the ultimate intimidation tactic. So they adopted it. From there they continued to try to one-up each other in terms of torture
They were all normal people once, gullible dumb kids. Turned into a bunch of psychopaths with no rules living on probably huge amounts of meth I personally think it’s their hardcore drug use that will prevent them from ever getting tired of the extreme barbarism and going back to simple executions again | ||
