  1. Philosophy is far easier to understand than most people make it out to be. Its objective is to determine which of our intuitions can be relied on, and its motivation is an unceasing vindictive spite for the observation that seemingly all that we call knowledge is founded on intuition. The more sage the philosopher, the more intensely they're passive-aggressively telling the nature of human awareness 'I'm not mad, just disappointed.' :mustache:

      he knows that he is, because he does not know that he does not know whether he is or not

      But say, if one perceives something as a threat, then acts according to such, does it not become a threat from the view of the main observer & ideally, the only important factor? Rather, it is to say that one collects all of one's parts to tally an objective goal, which you then achieve by aligning to what you deem appropriate to your self.

       Case in point, if you're convinced brussel sprouts is icky, you'll never experience them to prove yourself wrong.

       Perception Dictates Reality, a motto of mine.

      It seems more psychological than anything to me. More so a defense mechanism.
