Brain As Receiver Is Still Wrong

The piece rails against a common TikTok trope: brain-as-receiver and “new age” claims that thoughts come from outside the brain. The author argues this dualistic idea has no evidence and that the brain is a living information processor. In clear terms, there’s no external mind network; mind equals brain, and genuine neuroscience maps thought to brain circuits. The article also critiques the broader culture of infotainment on social media: quick takes, sensational framing, and a lack of checks, which fuels misinformation even when good information is available online. It ends by urging readers to verify claims before posting.
