I think this nails it and is really the main thrust of the kayfabe analogy. It's also something I came to understand a few years ago, and have since had a lot of trouble getting others to understand the concept.
- trevyn 7y agoA bit of both obviously, but is this more “how our mind works” or “how our mind works while running the software loaded into it since birth”? (Where the range of easily available software options is surprisingly non-diverse in practice.)
- darkerside 7y agoYeah... This is missing the point completely. It's a bit of a nihilistic point to understand, but essentially it's that, nothing matters except what a consensus of humans decides matters. And that consensus can be achieved by an entire country, or by a single human.
