I just want to know your personal opinion, because you are a cool and I like the way you express your opinion.
The other day I was talking to a girl from one of the chats; she lives in a family of scientists, and we were discussing why many people can't shift.She said that not everyone is given the ability to shift, because everyone has an individual brain and neurons, and as she observed, this is given to especially calm and phlegmatic people, and those whose psyche is able to easily cope with stress, both negative and positive.And in her opinion, this lottery is like someone being born into a billionaire's family, and someone into a poor family.Because of this, one girl experienced a panic attack from her messages, because she saw this and began to worry because she could longer shift already one year.I supported her, but I'm still thinking about that discussion. What do you think of this theory and idea? I don't think it's correct, but I'm interested in your opinion, too.
This whole thing is batshit insane. Oh my god. Holy ableism.
People are free to hold their own beliefs, sure, but this is a deeply harmful take. It reminds me of that old âgenetic component to shiftingâ nonsense that made the rounds on tiktok a while back.
Even if we give her the benefit of the doubt and entertain a neuroscientific explanation, her logic still collapses in on itself. (Keep in mind, this is my very crude understanding of neuroscience, feel free to correct me on any of this I BEG).
If science validates shifting, I assume itâs as the brainâs way of processing perception or building predictive models of realityâfunctions every human brain performs by default. That doesnât make it an exclusive skill.
And seriously if her point is that âonly certain brainsâ can shift, what does that even mean? Does she think an entire group of people were just born with defective perception module? That their brains are somehow exempt from consciousness mechanics? Whereâs the study for this?/genq
I can understand how people with cognitive differences like ADHD (hi, me, have shifted) autism, certain disabilities, etc process information differently, weigh predictions differently, and focus on different aspects of sensory input, or processing at different speedsâBUT they are absolutely still engaged in processing reality and building predictive models of the world !!!
These are fundamental functions that all conscious brains perform. The differences are in how they do it, not whether they do it. Every person with these conditions is actively perceiving, predicting, and making sense of their reality moment to moment. The idea that cognitive differences somehow exclude people from basic consciousness mechanics or reality processing is wild.
If the brain really is involved in shaping or filtering reality, then everyone, by definition, has that capacity,, because everyone with a functioning nervous system perceives and interprets reality.
She comes from a scientific family and supposedly believes in the existence of multiple realities? Yet she draws the line at human potential?? Sheâll accept infinite worlds, infinite timelines, infinite versions of youâbut not the idea that every human brain can access them?
I need to calm down. Actually, no. FURTHERMORE!!
Reality creation exists across so many human experiences, such as manifestation, prayer, synchronicity, so on. Itâs all language for the same underlying function of awareness expressing itself through different frameworks. Everyone participates in it to some degree. Saying that only certain people can shift because of their neurological makeup is dehumanizing. It implies thereâs some inherent hierarchy of awareness, like certain minds are âless capableâ of experiencing consciousness states. Thatâs an incredibly ableist way to look at it.
Because if you follow that logic, anyone with a neurological condition, mental illness, or neurodivergence automatically gets excluded. People with ADHD, autism, PTSD, or even just anxiety would supposedly be âdisqualifiedâ from something that is an internal process available to anyone!
You donât need to meet some standard to interact with your own consciousness.
What bothers me most is that this rhetoric can genuinely harm people. Imagine someone already struggling, hearing that they just werenât âborn with the right kind of brainâ to achieve something they care deeply about. I really hope that girl who had the panic attack can unlearn what she was told, because itâs not true. Awareness is universal and no one is born outside of it.
