MODERATORS
You are a dumbass, multiple of the studies are meta-analyses and many very clearly state that the group studied are otherwise healthy individuals.
You have no evidence for your BS claims and that makes you mad.
Lol you clearly don't understand what I'm saying. Yes, and there are other meta-analyses of aphantasia studies which explore how bad the data is. You can also have a meta-analysis that says "wow, look at all of this data, isn't it amazing?" you only want to do B. Our whole definition of a healthy individual is flawed. When testosterone levels drop nationwide, that becomes the new normal threshold for people administering testosterone therapy, for instance. Everyone has sleep problems from a sedentary lifestyle nowadays, starting in school, and that's when they get diagnosed with ADHD.
Multiple of the studies (including ones I linked) suggest that there isn't as much data on the subject as there is on other disorders since mental imagery has only recently started being explored in-depth, but where exactly do you see any that suggest that aphantasia isn't real or that the lack of data establishes no consensus on the existence of aphantasia? Because a "debunking" would do that, but all of the meta-analyses I've come across still accept the existence of aphantasia as a chronic disorder.
Pretty funny how you make these grandiose claims but never have a source. Your only source is Reddit threads on people saying it's not real lol.
Prove god doesn't exist you little weasel
I don't need to prove that "God doesn't exist" if there's no scientific proof that God exists. But there is much scientific proof which draws the conclusion of aphantasia existing.
