Now Magnus, you must forgive me if I describe reality in terms of logical sequences, wherein, attached to them are propositions, or truth functions,
which may make sense.
To me logistics seems best, and I see the logic, the
modal logic sandwitched between the identifiable
direct connections to the most generally accepted sense of reality, the ‘shared’ general concept, with its changing specific applications.
For instance, one might think how Trump may think of people calling him crazy, mentally ill, the
Orange tweeting d’Potus man, etc., and you may
think a young man institutionalized for borderline personality disorder on the same level. What distinguishes the young, unfortunate man from the
highly priviladed Trump, who may have a similar
etiology, is the a billion dollars .Trump can deal with sticks and stones, he has had tremendous education and help, for everyone knows the truly wealthy is
truly crazy. The big difference with the boy, is that
he has a very thin veneer of seeing reality ‘for what it is’, whereas Trump has been around, he has a very reach relative perception, whichcould be surmised
as an overwhelming power to obfuscate huge
differences, changing the very reality itself.
That is why, a very powerful man, rather then being
changed by a non factual reality, -meaning- it is not
factually shared by the institutionalized young man, -changes that reality himself.
Reality is an effect of power plays and power plays are a result of long culminating series of control cues, in the usual method of classical conditioning.
The realities can become so different, as to Trump’s mentally ill way of perceiving reality, that for want of
a definition, the phrase ‘might is right’ becomes a
cliche.
But most people adopt the cliche, by rote, because
they can experience only one dimension of reality:
The One Dimensional Man comes to mind, where the Other reality is repressed. This is why, shrinks argue about the supposed condition of Trump, some saying
he is ill, others not.They are stymied in a power play.
The reality becomes a matter of opinion , and there is a sense of illness which equates with powerlessness,
Powerlessness becomes a gradient within the measure of sensing a reality, which may have been repressed, where repression is a function of the above.(power, control).
The way we see and experience reality as a function of power and control, works for the young man as a
deconstruction: reality is deconstructed, de-realized,
by control-power mechanisms, which are internalized in the sense of the earliest, identifiable, structures-logistics of the mind, and its spatial-temporal
manifestation relates to a compensation of Otherness
which have infinite, and mystic areas of spaceless and timeless areas. He conflates the original structures with those ,which Sartre characterizes as
Nothingness. But this Nothingness is not really
nothing, it is really something between the absolute void, and existence. It is the very private time and space of the individual. It is, the excluded middle of
the soldier, dying in a brutal war whose causes he
does not understand. He is the trained killing machine, where his sense of humanity is suppressed, to act and feel like a killing machine, more animal
then man.
This suppression of reality is the dehumanization of reality, wherein lies the danger both eithermadness
or great violence.
Reality as a function of forces based in power plays (politics), is a game everyone is involved to a certain
extent.
Some parents teach their children , and warn them how their reality has to change to accord them an
easier transition into adulthood, where they have to
function even in the midst of the most dangerous and debilitating games which are played out.
At the same time, they have to eventually adopt the most pleasing and inoffensive mask, without which they cannot transact the business of life.
Reality then, becomes, literally, the mirror through
which it reflects its consciousness of it’s sense of self.
