Be careful with these kind of talks.
Depending on the level of delusion of the person you are talking to, it can have devastating consequences.
Just as a reminder, this quote from PKD is perfect to bring everyone back to the ground of planet earth:
« Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. »
The fact that the things you mention sound strange and unneeded at individual level, doesn’t mean it is not real [and useful?] as a social element.
