ok, I mean, maybe it is, and I don't think the motivation here is the motivation you're critiquing, but if Damasio is right (he might be, don't know), then dualism is a really amusing kind of dissociation of/from the body.

amusing in that it transforms dualism from "the body is a meat puppet, a fake thing animated by an essential other" to "my kidney is a serf and I, the autocratic ruler of these peasants, will decide how to handle your grievances"
