Current Events > What is objectively real

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like things we can see or touch at their core are objectively real (for the sake of argument)

So take a tree. It's real, yeah, but what is it? Like everything we attach to our perceptions doesn't necessarily hold any meaning or truth to it. Like when you're a kid, you know it's a tree. If you study botany you know it to be a collection of cells. If you study woodworking you know it to be a source of inspiration.

Like long story short, things may appear one way but that doesn't mean there's meaning behind it.

Kinda like race. What is it? We made it up, it's nothing more than color...take one school of thought and the meaning attached to it changes in such a way...take no school of thought and you're back to seeing people as people.
