no wait one sec it turns out i too am small and petty
neil degrasse tyson wants Truth to be about space because he does not want to look at the earth; he wants Truth to be about the vast emptiness of the universe because he does not want to look at fullness

he wants Truth to be inaccessible to the naked eye because he does not want to look at his perceptions, he wants Truth to be about things that are far away because he does not want to look at what is near, i could go on and on and on like this really

if Truth is about physics then learning the Truth does not improve your ability to help yourself or the people around you with their ordinary everyday problems in the slightest, unless possibly it leads to some kind of career where a physics degree is a useful thing to have

that is to say, if Truth is about physics, then unless you're literally a nuclear engineer or something, learning the Truth means you get to sit smugly in your armchair and feel good about how much Truth is in your head, safe where it cannot influence your actions

your head may want Truth to be about physics but meanwhile your heart watches anime with magical girls in it who shine beams of light and love at their enemies; that is the Truth of your heart and i seriously literally mean that
