Sure, this happens all the time, but life is not exactly black and white. There is a reason your brain tends to not remember minute details.

There is no single, uniform reality that is consistent among all of us. Reality depends on what actually happens (objective) AND how our brains make sense of what happens (subjective). Both are necessary components of reality, and reality is a subjective concept unique to each of us.

The deeper truth is that perception is never a di­­rect window onto an objective reality. All our perceptions are active constructions, brain-based best guesses at the nature of a world that is forever obscured behind a sensory veil. Visual illusions are fractures in the “Matrix,” fleeting glimpses into this deeper truth.

This is all the allegory of the cave btw.

In the allegory, Plato describes people who have spent their entire lives chained by their necks and ankles in front of an inner wall with a view of the empty outer wall of the cave. They observe the shadows projected onto the outer wall by objects carried behind the inner wall by people who are invisible to the chained “prisoners” and who walk along the inner wall with a fire behind them, creating the shadows on the inner wall in front of the prisoners. The "sign bearers" pronounce the names of the objects, the sounds of which are reflected near the shadows and are understood by the prisoners as if they were coming from the shadows themselves.

Only the shadows and sounds are the prisoners' reality, which are not accurate representations of the real world. The shadows represent distorted and blurred copies of reality we can perceive through our senses, while the objects under the Sun represent the true forms of objects that we can only perceive through reason. Three higher levels exist: natural science; deductive mathematics, geometry, and logic; and the theory of forms.

Socrates explains how the philosopher is like a prisoner freed from the cave and comes to understand that the shadows on the wall are not the direct source of the images seen. A philosopher aims to understand and perceive the higher levels of reality. However, the other inmates of the cave do not even desire to leave their prison, for they know no better life.[1]

Like am I truly crazy for believing that world markets and things are not truly left up to random chance but controlled and steered by a group of rich fucks who want it all.

Or being poisoned by the refrigerant. WCB might have been able to convince me that it had nothing to do with the freon, had they actually tried to help me.

Instead it was, NOPE, freon cant cause irregular heartbeat, NOPE, you dont have irregular heartbeat, NOPE 170/110 resting blood pressure is perfectly normal.

All these lies form a picture that only reinforces a lifetime of experiences that I have collected through appalachia.

Sometimes I feel like it was fate, which is ironic as fuck because I used to believe that people controlled their fate.

Had some dudes stop by asking for donations and I just was straight up with them. Told them I havent been able to work in years and i had five bucks to spare I would, which is the truth. I doubt much money ends up in the hands of people who actually need it but that is a different story.

Told them I was poisoned, wcb wouldnt do shit to help me. One of the guys asked why I didnt sue the company. I had to laugh, and explain you cant sue your employer because of a unspoken agreement between you and WCB LMAO. If wcb refuses to help you there is very little you can do. I told them good luck and buddy shook my hand lmao, they looked mortified.

Faggot laywers "But but but theres not enough money in it for us to care, sorry."

Fucking loser ass pieces of shit. Scum, all of em. Doctors, and government workers too.

Perfect example of mass hypnosis right here during my morning lurk.

Saying this in the halifax sub 4 years ago would have netted you a permanent ban. Now its just common accepted fact.

Bunch of fucking jokers, especially that dr strang.

Declares the government shut everything down for a month and then acts shocked when picketeers show up on his front lawn.

Fucking moron. Good representation of all the doctors here actually.

Random I know, but the halifax sub is full of pictures from an aurora last night, it was really red and very visible to the naked eye. My partner had never seen one before.

I seen one as a kid, 35 years ago in ohio, but it was just the faintest of purples. This was something else.

Hope it aint a omen of things to come....
