me picking the logical problem about emotions that has spock in the tittle: ah yes, star trek and neurotransmiters, sounds like my sort of theme

Im. not a big fan of the authour and I think its kinda a silly work to be doing a logical analysis on because the thesis is so meandering that frankly its hard to pinpoint what exactly it is or the point of the spock reference being there in the first place! Outside of capturing the readers attention and engaging their interest via a familiar charater of course, but thats not really making an argument in favour of a point. ah. hate it when people try analysing works of fiction without acknowledging them as such and instead treating them like a thought experiment.

First of all spock is half human, so half the questions posed frankly dont say shit about anything. also the major point the authour seems to be making is that aiming for rationale with a lack of emotions above all else is kinda dumb, basically. Like yes i agree with this. however idk spock has never been emotionless. spock being peak stoicism just immediately sounds like an incorrect premise to me. hes emotional!

idk i mostly remember star trek by my mom watching it a lot when i was younger and also whatever ive consumed via osmosis but like. why would you even need to prove spock has the capacity for emotions? obviously he does???

#yeah hes less expresive and were mostly comparing hin to kirk #also its kinda annoying to read i dislike the writhing style but thats common in all the problems so i cant just. pick another one #idk where to start when analysing this becausr we have to lay out the main questions and conclusions of the text #and what can i say except stoicism is dumb and you catn avoid emotions as they are a complex process that is intristically a part of #sentience #me #a shitpost can be blue
