Optimus prime solves, the question of identity, the mind body duality, through dialectics
hu-mans... are we mere meat puppets animated by essence, be they souls configurations of energy traveling through the ether thanks to the schuman resonance (insert hyperlink here). Random collections of chemically induced synapses in a predetermined world? Or is the mind body duality a ridiculous concoction, brought forth by confused animals now too big for their britches? Have we so abstracted the reality of our one-ness that we suffered a split? Is identity a matter of meat sineu and grey matter moreso than the social maelstrom concistantly realigning us?
Well, today i present you with a novel answer... one that will settle this question once and for all. An argument by example... and that argument is optimus prime. You see, Optimus prime maybe many things. A leader, a nobel warrior. A father figure to countless children won over by hasbro's marketing geniuses. But as Descarts would have us do, we must strip away all our knowledge and take it back to the few truths that lie beyond a doubt.
Optimus Prime sounds like a truck driver.
Optimus Prime is autonomous .: Optimus Prime drives a truck.
.:Optimus Prime = truck driver
I think youll agree, beyond the shadow of a doubt that this argument flat out crushes the mind body duality like Grimlock stepping on so many insectacons, and gives us new insight into the question of identity.
