    Q&A with a person with no inner monologue

    • when reading it’s more like they’re sorting through a file cabinet of ideas than hearing an audiobook in their heads.
    • it helps to read out loud
    • they can’t play music they’ve heard before in their heads
    • they’re not plagued by constantly reliving the past (I think this is actually a very strong positive of not having an inner monologue)
    • they can’t imagine future conversations before they have them.

    I think it’s important for socialists to keep in mind how people process information, sine it can massively change our political strategy of spreading our ideas.
