All meaning is socially constructed and transitory

@dystopianAntihero No, it isn't.

@NankerPhelge All is interpretation, but some interpretations are preferable to others due to the weight of their explanatory power.

That's not necessarily a bad thing, unless you prefer living in the past

@dystopianAntihero Living in the past is the only thing I can do until someone brings it back for me. Lol :)

Thanks for making my point ;)

@dystopianAntihero I haven't the foggiest idea what point you were trying to make, I just say what I feel (and therefore know) is true.

Your truth

And sorry, I actually misunderstood what you said, and after going back and rereading it, I realized I haven't got the foggiest idea of your point, either, lol

Objectively speaking, however, the past does not exist. I did exist, but it no longer does. Which goes back to my point about about how living in the past is living according to a socially construct

@dystopianAntihero "I did exist?" Are you trying to tell me you are dead now? The thick plottens. 🤔

And additionally, contradiction is not a logical argument ;)

@dystopianAntihero Yes it is.
