Ultimately, M_J is hinting at power play (opinion, influence?), different forms of power and then believing this “concept” exists.
Some one says A, and you say ok. Or you might say, maybe, I dont know? Or say, no, I don’t believe this matters at all.
My popular science understanding of physics (docs, some books etc) says that our perceptions are quite limited* (what we are aware, vision, hearing etc).
Human psyche is quite limited as is… We see limited amount of El.mag wavelengths, hear limited amount of frequencies and like to believe we are masters of something… We are, of our own creations.
Our belief in false gods is real. There probably is some kind of God, call it physical reality or “The All Knowing” but our descriptions with words and trying to piece it together is and always will be limited.
Our day to day perception is basically where we put our focus on… That does not mean we define what we see but that’s , then our life basically.
