I take care of my 16 year old nephew and I have brainwashed him to believe that the single most important thing he can do in high school is study math so he can be an electrician when he graduates. So far that is working. Last semester he got three A’s and a B and this semester one A and three B’s. He gets A’s for precalculus and science. He’s such a good kid.
No it’s not. It’s independent of perception. Remains true regardless if people perceive it or not. Or so I estimate.
I've never heard either of these statements until now. But in consideration, they sound like psychopathic rationalizations.
Haha perhaps boredom, but I usually have times in my life where I tend to think about stuff like this more than others. This is one of them. And hmm…avoiding acknowledging the truth of the world to avoid admitting defeat. It almost seems to me that may be true but you also can’t necessarily claim victory either under the notion that there is no objective fact in most perspectives, be them political or otherwise…you can’t necessarily objectively prove your opponents wrong…but neither can they do the same to you;
Though it just seems to me more so to be an acknowledgment that…morality itself is so subjective as to have no inherent objective truth. And when that point is acknowledged, as uncomfortable as that is, it makes you see the world a lot differently. All the sudden, your enemies are no longer wrong, and nor are you correct and vice versa. Now it’s just…perspectives without any weight behind them other than what we subjectively assign. Nothing new here I suppose, but a thought nonetheless.
