Sure. However, @6345 has stated numerous times that the reason he posts here is because it's immutable/permanent.

How is that not materialistic?

An anti-materialist shouldn't care whether his ideas are stored immutably (protecting the ideas) and seen by others, or pissed into the wind and only experienced by himself.

I think publishing - no matter where, no matter if a single soul reads it - is essentially broadcasting to everyone tuned into the same frequency as you.

And I don't even think the few important thoughts humans have are their own. They are already in that frequency.

It's like finding seashells and telling people we made them.

All you can claim as your achievement is formulating these thoughts in a better way.

Why immutable instead of on a platform where you don't know if they'll change or delete it?

Why not?

Yes, so you're attached to your ideas being preserved, not lost. You are seeking to protect your ideas.

That is materialistic.

Are ideas part of the material world in Canada?

Replying to@1Gwece…AV6R

Yes, ideas affect the material world, in fact they are the main driver of what happens in the material world.

Your attachment to your ideas (and effort to preserve them) is 100% materialistic.

It's not an objectively bad thing to have some level of materialism.

But more importantly, and conclusively, you seem to think that non-materialists don't live in the material world.

We do. We interact with it all the time.

The only think that differentiates us from a materialist is thatcwe think there are more dimensions to our human existence than just the material one.

Now big hug.

Sure, and I'm saying, we have no guarantees there are more dimensions, so to operate without some level of materialism (i.e. storing good ideas for future generations), just in case, is delusional.

You think you know for sure there are other dimensions. I'm saying that's possible, and the opposite is also possible. It's not knowable to any of us.

Therefore I store my ideas on chain in the hopes that it might benefit future generations. Regardless of if there are other dimensions to reality or not.
