The guy seems to be an amateur youtuber with no background in philosophy and completely misses the point and confuses science with metaphysics. Science has nothing to do with and can not prove or disprove neither materialism nor idealism (nor any other ontology). Science only applies to what reality (nature) does (how it behaves) but not what it is.
Regarding the "hard problem", he confuses the "emergence" with "brutal emergence", and the "easy problem" with the "hard problem" of consciousness. Apparently he has no knowledge of Chalmers analysis of those two kinds of emergence and two kinds of problems.

We can always trust Mark to keep track of the trash-talking BK bashers. Keep us informed if there's any counter-bashing from our pugilistic protagonist in Idealism's corner.

I love how in videos where someone is bashed they always choose their least flattering picture as the thumbnail.

Dana I am not looking for trash I was actually looking for something else and then found it. Since I am not so active in this forum I thought I ask if there is a thread here about it that I missed or if he has been strangled by BK already. Who is the pugilistic antagonist you are talking about?
And btw if you find any trash-tv feel free to share, not that I am beyond it. Btw you introduce me to tjump
btw i think i have once or twice shared some trash-talk by tjump so that BK is aware of it and can make his own decisions whether to debate him again. i think he has already decided not to, which is fair enough.

You do seem to remain intrigued by the trash talking BK bashers, even as you seem to agree that they're talking trash. It did once hold some fascination for me too, but not so much now, as I'm now far more interested in how idealism can be taken further into areas it would seem BK would rather not venture into. In any case, as far as I know, BK, who is the 'pugilistic protagonist' referred to, has not responded to the video you shared. If that's an indication that he's losing interest in the trash-talking too, I guess remains to be seen.
