>You are not understanding what is actually happening when you think.
Yes clearly you know better about my own meta-cognition than I do even though I've been researching and learning about different methods of cognition years before the "NPC" meme, aphantasia and general awareness of unsymbolized thinking was ever a thing once I noticed I do not think with any inner dialogue like characters in TV shows or books did with their inner monologue sequences.

You are limiting concepts to languages, this is a mistake. Consider the tip of the tongue phenomenon where the word you want to use to convey a concept is unable to be remembered by you, the concept/idea you want to convey by that word is in your head but the word that describes it, to share it with someone else is temporarily missing. That cannot happen if as you say language comes before thought.

>You could not have ever initially obtained the idea with out language
Trust me I have plenty of times, followed by feelings of instant realization or disappointment, or elation, depending on what the idea was about. Most of my creative ideas happen this way too, be it immediate creative inspiration or an urge to try a different approach to some drawing/thing I'm working on.

But all my most abstract and idiosyncratic ideas and concepts have happened this way, I rarely generate any useful or novel abstract idea or concept via inner monologue, language is simply too limiting, this especially applies for when I'm contemplating on my unsymbolized thinking, in contemplating my own meta-cognition

wtf is this Alex Jones shit?
there isn't any money in developing a cure. The money is in treatments. Even all the even the good PR from praise and accolades of creating a cure wouldn't be as good as the cold hard cash of a lifetime use treatment that just holds cancer at bay.

also, cancer is hard.
