    Aaaah cool. So plain speak wise, perception often becomes a persons reality. Even if not permanently. And the wealthiest use manipulation through propaganda to control perception and what individuals perceive as reality. Pitting them against eachother. I don’t see anything too controversial about that. But I can see why ML would. They’re very dependent on said propaganda and manipulation.

      The place where it gets controversial is that we say gender, race, species, and divinity are also social constructs. Neither inherently true nor false, but rather a choice we make as society, and should therefore treat with responsibility and kindness. We piss off the transphobes by saying trans people exist, the kinphobes by saying otherkin exist, the human supremacists by saying animals deserve rights, the atheists by saying the gods exist, the monotheists by saying ALL the gods exist, and the white realist liberals by saying indigenous myths are literally true, and the rainbow serpent truly did make Australia, North America truly is on the back of a giant turtle, and the big bang truly did create the universe, although Elohim created Jewish people.

      We believe everyone about their own cultural truths, and that pisses off all the exclusionary realists.
