>>11979194The REASON you don't like pain and the reason you like food, is because the brain likes food and hates pain, the brain sends a signal to the nerves/muscles to move away from pain to avoid it. Sometimes pain isn't even a bad thing (like surgery) but you evolved to negatively react to it because you didn't have the context of surgery available when you evolved to feel pain.
The reason you can think complexly is also the same exact thing as pain or food or sex, it is because the human brain was benefited from this kind of imagination, these kinds of arguments and thoughts and thinking in words and in sentences, it was beneficial for evolution, it is no different from a plant growing to face the sun, the brain evolved to think in sentences because it helped the species out and survive.
A "word" means nothing to somebody who doesn't know what the word means. A word means nothing to a rock or to a tree, it only means something to the brain, your entire existence is like words that only your own brain understands. You are just an internal world created by your brain, if your eyes are gone you can't see, if your ears are gone you can't hear, your world is created internally by the brain.
