I am completely lost as to what your point is. Do you believe that mass also does not exist unless we measure it or are you saying there is something special about time?
- kelseyfrog 5y agoI'm making the radical constructionist point based on Berger and Luckmann's The Social Construction of Reality.
- dpark 5y agoI asked a pretty straightforward question that shouldn’t require me reading hundreds of pages for you to answer. I feel like this is headed toward a low-value philosophical discussion about how nothing really means anything without an observer or something like that.
- kelseyfrog 5y agoNearly all knowledge is socially constructed and appears as though it isn't through the process of reification. This is different from the realism-idealism divide. That is about as simple as I can make it. It is probably just as useful as saying a spinor is a square root of a vector. While simple, it doesn't do much to illustrate the point. A background in constructionism can however be had at the expense of reading 189 pages.
