yes and 100% imo this woman would appear to disagree rather strongly with Freudhttps://twitter.com/allamaraine4/status/1186349531274891270 …

Freud's usage of memory specifically does not imply conscious access, simply a persistence of structural changes and byproducts of experience (otherwise repression etc would be pure rather than only partly nonsense)

okay, so conditioning is a form of memory to Freud without any need for episodic or semantic recall. fair my answer to your blackout question is obviously correct in Freud, then, since your lack of episodic memory is irrelevant

so I guess my response here is that Jaynes quasi-psychoanalytic definition of consciousness as "being a linguistic subject" seems to be the only definition that still feels like it fits the boundaries we've just established, but it's unfortunately banal

Replying to @qorprate @chaosprime and
the irony here is that if consciousness is downstream of language then qualia (as commonly defined) is inherently inaccessible to consciousness

i mean, having a subjective point of view that's experiencing things is the best way i know to point at it if i'm tabooing "qualia"

"subjective" -> Cartesian subject -> downstream of language, consciousness as media etc "experiencing things" ("experience" as transitive verb) -> experience implies thingness -> aforementioned epistemological problems with qualia ^ not a full counterargument, just thoughts

Descartes was just being a nerd, subjectivity isn't downstream of language, lots of people have memories of preverbal experiences, i do if he weren't so big a nerd it'd be "i experience therefor i am" i mean experiencing things in the idiomatic sense not the one from that page

i.e. the "things" i am experiencing are sense impressions, i am not "experiencing" a Coke can, i'm experiencing a visual pattern and tactile pressure/temperature/texture information and cognitive reprocessing artifacts off of those
