    Is being an intellectual mutually exclusive with having emotions? Because as far as I know all people have emotions…

      If you let your emotions dictate your thoughts and actions, I have bad news for you.

            🤷

            Modern psychology and neuroscience agrees with me. Eg. https://neurosciencenews.com/emotion-reason-decision-making-25803/

            Or have a read of Kahneman’s Thinking Fast and Thinking Slow if you want something a bit deeper.

            The human brain is packed full of inescapable cognitive biases, many of which relate to emotions. They occur just as much for you as for me, and ignoring them or denying them just makes the problem worse.

              emotions, as demonstrated in his wine tasting study

              Lololololololol. Whatever you’re trying to say it’s based on wine tasting. Lolololololol.

              My last message to you is: go ahead and cry during old yeller. When it comes to politics, think.

                  You do know that people exist on a spectrum of behaviors,right? Oh why do I bother. Have at your emotions, but know that not everyone lets them dictate their actions like you.

                    Yes. My point is that everyone is on the spectrum, and a purely rational mode of decision-making does not exist in humans. Every decision has emotional components.

                    I never said that decisions are purely emotional.
