(15,423 posts)They always have this great plan based on their understanding of the world that will make them heroes in reality as well as in their own minds.
But unfortunately for whatever problem they're attempting to fix "for everyone" as well as themselves, they still need everything else in the world as well as Reality itself to follow the script they've written and are directing.
My understanding after all the years is that Reality is whatever collection of overall needs or requirements that remain and still have a critical impact going forward - outside of the plans and existence one creates to get one's wishes and wants.
That's something most authoritarians or privileged folk don't seem to grok...they tend to think that reality is whatever they allow themselves to see, hear, or feel in whatever immediate environment in which they exist.
