@i_contemplate_@KalishJantzen Reality is too complex to perceive...yes. Doesnt mean we cant see parts/relations accurately. -
@soapjackal@KalishJantzen No but I take the quote as a warning against excessive focus on the map/model/abstraction - a tunnel vision. -
@i_contemplate_@KalishJantzen the quote is from a guy whose sole project was giving aristotle the finger -
@i_contemplate_@KalishJantzen which is fine and good but his non-A system is mostly based upon opposition. Thats the perspective.
