OK, thanks. So I would guess that it's equivalent to eliminativism, as I think it's
called - the idea that consciousness is an illusion ("albeit a persistent one"). It does
seem that way to me.
I don't think it implies eliminativism. There's still temperature even though we have
statistical mechanics. I think there's far too much importance given to "what's
fundamental" and it leads to calling everything else and illusion. I doubt that Bruno
thinks arithmetic is an illusion just because what's fundamental is 0, S, +, and *. A
correction to this kind of obsession with essence is why I like my virtuous circle of
explanation.
