Don't confuse lack of an inner monologue with not thinking or not thinking critically. I lack a monologue when not doing verbal tasks, but I think visually/spacially/relationally instead for other tasks or when in rest or in the experience of my own consciousness. I pinky swear I'm not a philosophical zombie during that time:)

I still think there's no help for humanity without radical change, lol.

We're socially still cave-people, just with advanced technology. Technology that is increasingly a mystery even to its Users.

Ultimately, our species is more likely to fall back on our tribalism and devolve into religious ravings than to endure to something more enlightened.
