i don’t care.
have a good one
i know that any example I could give could be argued against, and I really don’t wanna dive into that because it has no end.
like I said, the only thing anyone knows for sure is that they’re experiencing something, call it consciousness or whatever. however, that is not a great example of fact vs fiction, and this isn’t a philosophy debate sub, so I tried to keep it simple.
there are better examples, but I’m just trying to explain a simple concept, not get into the bottomless argument of philosophical truth
do you agree with my assertion that some things are objective facts and some are not?
ohh sorry, is this a philosophy group?
from my angle it says 4950RPM but from your angle it says 5000RPM
I’m not interested in arguing semantics or philosophy. you can disagree with my example, I don’t care.
the point is, there are objective facts and subjective opinions.
people created the ideas of countries, then made a list of them. USA is on that list.
if you really want to get philosophical about it, you can say the only fact that anyone knows for sure is that they are experiencing something. Nobody knows for sure that everyone else in the world isn’t an NPC, nor whether this world is real or a hallucination.
I’m trying to keep it simple for the purposes of this argument

truth=facts. facts are objective. it’s a fact that the USA is a country in north America. there is no disputing that.
the notion that the USA is a good place to live is not a fact, it’s a subjective opinion
truth isn’t subjective, but perspective changes how you see something.

i feel like the free movement clause should be opt-in, and maybe certain privileges given to those nations that choose to opt-in
