Yes reality won’t care but some of the people who live with the fact that we aren’t ready to live in an era of cheap, easy disinformation do care. Saying “reality is what it is” doesn’t help.
- usrbinbash 5y agoI believe it does, because "reality is what it is and doesn't care about opinions" has an interesting implication: It means, the more we rely on factual evidence and the more we act based on knowledge based on it, the better we can cope with the universe. To my perception, a central problem of civilization is how much we value opinion, and how much we base our actions on it rather than on hard fact. If humanity acknowledges that its opinions don't matter, and reality is indeed what it is, then our way forward as a species will become a lot easier.
