Q&@
PEOPLE FIND IT DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND THE IDEA OF 'imagined orders' BECAUSE THEY ASSUME THAT THERE ARE ONLY TWO TYPES OF REALITIES: objective realities and subjective realities?! IN OBJECTIVE REALITY, THINGS EXIST INDEPENDENTLY OF OUR BELIEF AND FEELINGS. GRAVITY, FOR EXAMPLE, IS AN OBJECTIVE REALITY. IT ALREADY EXISTED LONG BEFORE NEWTON, & IT AFFECTS PEOPLE WHO DON'T BELIEVE IN IT JUST AS MUCH AS IT AFFECTS THOSE WHO DO! Subjective reality, in contrast, depends on my personal beliefs and feelings. Thus, suppose I feel a sharp pain in my head & go to the doctor? The doctor checks me thoroughly, but finds nothing wrong! So she sends me for a blood test, urine test. DNA test, X-ray, electrocardiagram, fMRI scan & a plethora of other procedures?! When the results come in she announces that I am perfectly healthy, & I can go home 'reassured'!? Yet I still dó féél a sharp pain in my head! Even though every objective test has found nothing wrong with me, & even though nobody except me feels the pain: for mé this pain ìs 100% real! Most people presume that reality is either objective or subjective, & that there is no 3rd option?
Hence once they satisfy themselves that something isn't just their own subjective feeling, they jump to the conclusion it MÙST be ob-jective?! If lots of people believe in "GOD"; IF MONEY MAKES THE WORLD GO AROUND; AND IF NATIONALISM STARTS WARS & BUILDS OLD & NEW EMPIRES - then these things aren't just a subjective belief of mine! God, money & nations must therefore be objective reali-ties? However, there is a third level of reality: the intersubjective level! Intersubjective entities depend on communication among many humans rather than on the beliefs & feelings of individual humans? Many of the most important agents in history are intersubjective....!
Money, for example, has no objective value. You cannot eat, drink or wear a dollar bill! Yet as long a billions of people dó gó òn believing in its value, you CÀN úse ìt to buy food, beverages & clothing! If the baker suddenly loses his faith in the dollar bill & refuses to give me a loaf of bread for this green piece of paper, it doesn't matter much? I can just go down a few blocks to the nearby supermarket! However, if the supermarket cashiers also refuse to accept this green piece of paper, along with the hawkers in the market & the salespeople in the mall, thè the dollar wìll lose its value! The green pieces of paper will go on existing, of course, but they will be worthless...... Sùch things actually happen from time to time. Mòr didn't learn how to shoot people, obey uniforms and believe in any self-centered 'officials' at all!
