I think reason & rationalism, in the sense of valuing & refining the exercise of reason, are important, valuable.
I also tend to think of visionary experience, intuition and the like as reason by other means, ways to make sense of things.
And I have plenty of these experiences.
In fact, I actively work on my faculties in these areas and seek such experience out, and have some preference for these methods.

this resonates too. reconnecting to self (get embodied), reconnecting to source, reclaiming intuitive ways of knowing
maybe sham rats are just post rats with shamanic inclinations? 😂

this is the mindset behind rationalism. this is why post-rats are angry.
rationalism cuts you off from yourself, from the sacred from the true sources of motivation. then it finds you demotivated and nihilistic and blames it on you. you “suffer from akrasia”
