Because I've been in really shitty situations and have seen others in them. Want me to demonstrate?


You're moving towards explaining your perception. I don't want to know your perception, I want to know the truth as to why the present is not eternally perfect.

What fantasy world are you living in?



:lol:



Please don't even try to act like you know a thing about neuroscience.


A debate is not for convincing somebody. It's about teaching each other, you have never experienced one obviously. Also Im living in a world where our individual minds create subjective experiences. Where is objective reality written down?? I know a bit about neuroscience, im young and still learning but its nice to try n understand the chemicals you ingest. Playing video games is not Mic different from smoking meth, both trick your brain into pumping dopamine right? How else could you feel good staring at useless lights?

The only way anything is learned is if somebody is convinced to change their mind...

Convince them by telling them how stupid they are? How am I oblivious? Give me more than your emotions to work with, I care not about your feelings. Are you a little girl?

You're oblivious because you make claims like "playing video games is not Mic [sic] different from smoking meth".

Oh yeah I forgot, dopamine always fires the same way in the same neural synapses in the same section of the brain.

My bad, professor.

Addiction is addiction. Trying to make an obscure differentiation isn't going to change that.
