To an extent. As I mentioned, some redditors are really too interested in having an enemy to fight, so hopefully we can get some cool people over without attracting the nutjobs who see 1945 germans everywhere.

No, I can’t solve that problem, but I don’t think that means there’s no objective reality out there. The alternatives are more ridiculous.

I don’t think we should pick our worldviews based on what’s “ridiculous”. For one thing, the very idea of determining truth as the opposite of silliness is absurd, and therefore the idea is inherently hypocritical. It instantly self-defeats and forces you to pick something else.

I believe in picking worldviews based on what’s useful. I’m always going to change reality if it helps people.
