Standard current philosophy is stuck. Dividing the world and our experience of it into two compartments, the inner and the outer, it holds fast to the defunct thesis that information about the outer world reaches us as information about the inner world. Refutations of this thesis do not reduce its popularity. Perhaps exposing the deceptive character of the arguments in its favor might. This discussion is politically important, since the thesis in question was initially individualist and progressive and it has become romantic and reactionary.
