    Verbal communication has very limited bandwidth compared to human thought processes. But we’ve been spending the past few millennia inventing workarounds, like art.

      as if verbal communication isn’t an art form in itself

      It’s just the boundary of our thoughts are so much bigger than they were 100k years ago

        I was not in any way implying that language cannot be used to create art. Such an assertion would be nonsensical.

          This is why I block so many people, did you even take a moment to think before you posted?

          Here is what you wrote earlier (emphasis mine):

          Verbal communication has very limited bandwidth compared to human thought processes. But we’ve been spending the past few millennia inventing workarounds, like art.

          Here is what you wrote now:

          I was not in any way implying that language cannot be used to create art.

          Do you see any logical problem with this? Nope? I didn’t think so.

          I mean I understand why you are like this, and it’s hardly a problem limited to just you. No one really cares about the meaning of words and just want the emotional payoff from saying them. This ties into the whole ‘media literacy is dead’ thing, and EVEN WORSE you feel absolutely ZERO twinge of conscience at posting two completely logically incompatible statements

          ON TOP OF THAT you’re probably even going to consider the fact I called you out on this troublesome to do some other form of harassment or deflecting just like always instead of admitting your fuckup.
