Do you have an internal monologue? And have you accepted that you're a subhuman r-slur if you don't?

I know this is a popular r*ddit topic, but I'm curious if rdrama bussy conniseurs overwhelmingly have an internal monologue. Despite being tards, the average user here is definitely less tarded than the average r*dditor. The vast majority of people I've seen online claiming they have no internal monologue are foids, which makes sense tbh.

you’re an unthinking machine responding to inputs. except when you say words that’s magical and self reflection consciousness meta :o. this is why paintings and music are boring, and why those who appreciate them do so by saying lots of paragraphs in their heads about it

whenever I stop talking I become totally unfeeling. my throat was clogged one day so I couldn’t subvocalize and I just left my kids in the park while I got cigs because I didn’t love them because that’s words.

again it’s meaningless. if the same person β€œthinks in words” and then β€œthinks without words”, maybe the interesting part isn’t words here lmao

go meditate, oversocialized mayo. u went to school and took so many tests you think words. go stare at an animal. Internal speak words are just a larp for pretending ur talking.

Notice the word SUBHUMAN, what makes humans different from other animals? Well lots of things, but one important thing is the size of our languages. Bees have a small language compared with humans.

You might think that words are only combinations of letters, but don't forget: sign language has words, even interpretive bee dances have words.

why can ravens do complex tasks like displacing water or trading coins for food without English? More succinctly, deaf people can still do simple tasks even if they aren’t taught sign language.

That's fascinating. All I know is that I'm different from you; I live in the mental space prior to the formation of words.

I was blind from birth until I learned the words for colors and light. if someone talks loudly at me I just robotically do what they say. I worship the term β€œJesus”.
