that's horrifying.

It depends on the reason it happens, but it's just the possibility of some people never growing beyond pop entertainment even when it comes to near physiological functions.

lol it’s not like ‘smart’ people are immune to this... it’s pretty universal
-
we’re all pretty much equally blind to our inner workings, it’s a hardware constraint
-
you’re missing the point, it’s not that peoples dreams ‘really’ changed, it’s just the language and metaphors the culture provided them to describe it

I got the point, just saying it made me think of this other idea.

truth is dreams are neither color nor black and white, we just use different metaphors
-
we have more or less agreed upon cultural framework to describe our mental phenomena but these concepts rarely are better than very crude metaphors
-
another example is that almost all humans possess rudimentary echolocation when asked to complete tasks requiring it - it’s just not a sense we culturally introspect on

do you though, or is the notion of color on your dreams just kind of undefined
