    In linking the shower thought to the allegory, the aim was not to draw a literal comparison but to underscore the shared theme of perceptual limitation and reality versus illusion.

    But you didn’t say that! You just said, via text of all things, this shower thought is the allegory of the cave. So it’s no wonder some people aren’t connecting your dots. You could stand to be less arrogant about it.

        Going on like you’re interested in philosophy and saying things like “y’all are dumb as fuck”, especially in this context, are incongruous and you really missed a great opportunity to stay quiet.
