How much of western society is based on simple truths?
As in, “this washing machine will clean your clothes!” or “This detergent will make your clothes smell nice!” n’ suchlike.
But how much of our society is based on truths we can relate to?
We don’t KNOW that our clothes smell nice, only that the words on the box tell us that our clothes will smell nice if we use the magic powder inside the box.
We don’t KNOW the washing machine isn’t going to take our clothes and shred the **** out of them, and yet we use them with willful complacency of this fact.
A simple truth btw, is anything but simple in this question.
