Indeed, he made a comparison between world hemispheres and brain hemispheres :) Unfortunately he seems to be playing the role of a tumor in the right hemisphere that's causing a seizure in or near the corpus callosum (Ukraine, the "borderland").

I guess an alternative diagnosis of the world brain would be the cancer of NATO that recently subjugated Sweden and Finland and from which Putin is saving Ukraine with an oncological treatment.

Ummm... Whatever...
He seems to be alluding also to an East/West split.
Really, it's right out of the Division Bell.
Might be a fitting way to end this forum--where it all began.

I've been wondering... is it the fate of the East to have totalitarian regimes where opposition, minorities and individuals are crushed? Or could democracy work everywhere and the individualist/collectivist preferencies be mediated by right-wing/left-wing parties?

Poll the American Indians for an alternative diagnosis of the world brain.

The West has been cruel as well... But the Wild West is gone. Unfettered capitalism is gone, the Great Depression showed a hundred years ago that it doesn't work. Socialism has been flowing into the West. And capitalism into the East. The world hemispheres seem to be converging despite the seizures here and there. They may not converge completely. Maybe Westerners will continue to value individual liberty more and the Easterners social harmony.

It's where I left our conversation hanging some four? years ago.
We've come full circle! In the same way, right hemisphere can't be accurately used to characterize the spatial--except as metaphor.
It's also why hemisphere specialization is not--in my opinion--the optimal evolution of brain function. Again--in my opinion--it's about redundancy of function.

If the brain was not divided into specialized hemispheres, it could characterize the spatial more accurately? Maybe it would work even worse because the holistic and analytic functions (parallel processing with long connections and serial processing with short connections) would sabotage each other.

It is not just the human brain that is divided into two specialized hemispheres, the hemispheric specialization has been found in many other species too. So it probably has an evolutionary advantage for many species.

This is so good.

Is it our future then? Or is it our past.

Maybe both. At least we know that hemispheric specialization is not an unnatural or abnormal development in the human brain when compared with other species.
> Is it our future then? Or is it our past.
If the two hemispheres were merged it might improve the integration of analytic and holistic processes but so far it seems that the interference of these processes would decrease their functioning overall. That's why evolution has selected against it so far.

Seems we are all somewhat in synch. I thought the exact same thing when I saw the interview.
But from my point of view, the reference was a sinister snide comment. Putin, in my opinion, was not only giving a nod to those whom have come to some understanding of the "schizm" as it exists as a personal psychological condition being reflected in the collective conscious of global affairs, but he was blatantly telling us that his government and the ruling governments of all countries have known about this relationship and have exploited it to their advantage for hundreds if not thousands of years.
As we have seen, the psychological split is intentionally nurtured through propaganda and indoctrination from a very young age. This makes people easier to control when they have less understanding and control of their own faculties. It is also interesting to not that like the USA, Russia has also been exploring psychological warfare in relationship to things like ESP, hypnosis and the occult significance of modern discoveries in these fields.
A new form of evolved psychological warfare based on an old tactic.
If you cannot suppress the information anymore, then get out in front of it and steer the narrative.
Also notice his facial expressions change when he begins talking on the subject. This was a very planned and precise "suggestion" he was placing in the collective consciousness of the world.
Good thread. Glad to see someone else noticed the reference as well.

I just know that Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father. So I guess the Holy Ghost floats at the left.
> So, is god lefthanded or righthanded?
"There exists but one God... he is the Father, God, the Creator, the author, the giver of order. He made all things by himself, that is, by his Word and by his Wisdom, by the Son and the Spirit, who, so to speak, are "his hands." Creation is the common work of the Holy Trinity."

The god that can be defined within the mind is not the Absolute.

However all existence defined, is within the mind of the Absolute.
