Is the discussion of the nature of consciousness really a meme?

Is it just that everyone is bummed out that such a trivial definition cannot be formally made? I don't think I've ever talked to a physicist who DIDN'T get mad when you tried telling them that there exists no definition of consciousness that can work with the rest of the laws of physics.

And then come all the famous quantum experiments of the twentieth century with all these funny results that force you to question human consciousness, and still when you ask a physicist what role consciousness plays in physics they get even angrier than before.

What exactly is the issue here? Why anger?

Or because someone is going to say "I don't know what you're talking about" I'll just respond beforehand.

Physicists insist that consciousness plays a minor role in understanding the universe, but intuitively most decently intelligent people know that cannot be the case.

Because you're a fucking brainlet that doesn't know shit about quantum mechanics.

If I had to guess, you probably know next to nothing. Angsty fag.

i dont understand the fuss about it. I feel most people are just making something more complicated than it really is. I dont understand why consciousness has to be that hard. I also don't understand why physicists would be expected to know that much about consciousness.

People get mad when people try to put consciousness into quantum experiments, even though that is the only thing we can do given the results we see.

Have you considered the possibility that consciousness itself is a meme?
