>Adams had a normal range of beliefs.

Manifesting things into reality through writing them often enough is FAR from a normal belief. Dude was a bit looney from the get go





>>> Manifesting things into reality through writing them often enough is FAR from a normal belief.

Hey, propaganda is a thing and it works. That's totally and example of manifesting things into reality through writing them often enough.


Prayer is basically that isn't it? Also, "the secret."

Most people in the industrialized world zealously believe what they are told to believe, even if it goes against what's in front of their own eyes. So making things true just by saying or writing them is not that odd.

I think the commentor was talking about Adams's support for Trump. While maybe not normal on Reddit, HN or San Francisco, it's normal enough that more than half the voters agreed with Scott Adams.

No Im talking about the ending chapters of Dilbert Future. Some real interesting stuff in there.
