This.

Everyone accepts that association works positively, such as the Pavlovian experiment, but why is it so hard to understand that it works even more powerfully for negative association, purely because our brains have evolved with a powerful negative bias (and the desire to avoid the thing that causes the negative feeling)?

How the hell else do they think behavioral therapy works?

Here's a clue: your amygdala doesn't give a fuck how much you love something. If being around it causes it pain and stressors, then it's going to tell you never to go near it again.

Oh please. It's sad that you were bullied, but you know, you guys that can just say "fuck social justice because it's stresses us" aren't the only ones.

I feel some measure for sympathy for you people, because real SJWs can be pains in the ass, but only so much. Some of us who were also bullied can't shut things down and stop caring about ~social justice~ issues because it's our lives. I can't stop ignoring that I was called the n-word by classmates constantly and then stop caring about shit like that because of stressors due to SJWs wanting to get the upper hand in arguments and troll people.

You know, I really don't care if you people supposedly suddenly stopped caring about shit, but don't pretend you are the only people who had it rough during grade school.

DA

Exactly how many random and unsubstantiated assumptions can you make in a single post?

Apparently this many.

I had to look up the word amygdala. And it's early and I'm not awake and I'm not even able to comprehend what side of the issue you're on yet (first cup of coffee.) But I wanted to thank you for making me learn a new word.

That's always awesome.

It's strange that you toss in a mention of behavioral therapy, since one of the aims of CBT is to correct the kind of negative associations you're talking about.

We aren't slaves to our biology or to our brains. We're able to recognize when something we're feeling doesn't make sense or is detrimental, and we're able to say "I want to change how I'm feeling about this." We're even able to make ourselves do things that make us uncomfortable when we know it's a good course of action. You guys are looking for excuses to not have to care about what's right and wrong, and that makes you bad people.

So because CBT therapy has never worked for me, I'm an inherently bad person. Well, thanks for letting me know.

You appear to have reading comprehension problems, if nothing else.

Except no because that's your core argument. If people are affected by negative things and attempts to correct it fail, they are inherently bad people.
