Why?
Maps
A map should never be confused with the territory.
A good map is never more than a good representation of the territory.
A bad map is not rooted in reality.
The terrirory is reality.
Computer Screens and Speakers
A computer screen displays only what the programmer tells it to display, the speakers only produce sound that the programmer tells them to produce.
There is always a programmer between your eyes and ears and what someone tells you the screen and speakers represent.
What the screen and speakers represent can be accurate.
What the screen and speakers represent is often inaccurate and false.
Increasingly, and as time goes on, computer screens and speakers rarely represent reality.
Computer screens and speakers are, by default, an untrustworthy messenger of reality.
Your TV is a computer.
Electricity
Without electricity, you can navigate the territory by using a good map.
Without electricity, computers do not exist.
Without electricity, you continue to live.
Live one day without electricity.
Stop seeing what you know, start knowing what you see.
