People think they're smart because they've "realized" that consciousness doesn't exist and substance dualism is false. But, everyone stops there and just continue to be substance dualists, or greater arity, of some other stripe. I.e. there is no consciousness but there are apples, and kittens, and rainbows, and pots of gold. The real takeaway is that NO abstract concepts exist. It doesn't even make sense to say "every thing is only itself" since this again differentiates substances of "thing" and "self."
