Fish Are Not Arboreal by Nature
from Philosophics — Philosophical and Political Ramblings · host Bry Willis
The provided text argues that modern moral reform mistakenly treats precognitive perception as if it were a changeable belief. By attempting to use dialogue and education to alter involuntary mental patterns, such as objectification, society ignores the biological architecture of the human mind. The author suggests that while behavioural expression can be regulated, the underlying internal salience cannot be fundamentally re-engineered through logic. Consequently, what is often celebrated as moral growth is actually just the enforced suppression of instincts that remain unchanged. This confusion leads to unjustified guilt and resentment because it penalises individuals for involuntary cognitive functions rather than their actions. Ultimately, the text maintains that we must distinguish between manageable conduct and the impossible task of rewiring human nature.👉 https://philosophics.blog/2026/02/05/fish-are-not-arboreal-by-nature/
