This contrasts with Ludwig von Mises' concept of Human Action.

Theory of Mind problems can’t be solved by brute denial. Such denials would, for starters, render communication largely magical. Every utterance routinely exceeds linguistic encoding yet is perfectly sensible via contextualizing intention. Pragmatics is empirically verifiable!

Such opinion also leads to the atomization of everything (fragmentation/ overcomplexity, up to the point that nothing is ”true” and nothing can be done about anything). This type of übernihilism (Derrida, Foucault etc.) is typical for todays postmodern thinking. Cul-de-sac.

the funniest thing about this is that it's spot-on. In my examinations of literary works I found everyone is rational and my experience with life is that real people often have petty reasons for doing things or no reason at all. ~ It's why reading makes people more rational.

Once I defuse the rhetoric, I’m not sure what this is saying... that the massive modularity thesis is true? If so, then

So what does psycho-evo want to say? That people don't have any access to intentions? Even those smart ones? How is that provable?

In other words, free will is an illusion so don’t assume there is a sole thinker of thoughts.
