There's a 40% chance panpsychism wins the memetic tournament.

Strengths:

  • Robust versions of panpsychism are plausible.

  • There’s momentum in academia.

  • There’s a market for alternatives to physicalism among laypeople.

Weaknesses:

  • Scientism dominates the intellectual climate, and physicalism benefits from that by default.

  • Panpsychism is closer to physicalism than most people think, so there’s a chance its merits get absorbed by physicalism.

  • Panpsychism could be false.

  • Gotta get rid of the woos.

If panpsychism was a racing horse what do you think would be its betting odds in the memetic tournament? 🐎🏁
