Must humankind have it's illusions so it doesnt see the predicament it finds itself in?

@uncalled4 That's an interesting perspective!

@Palumbo98lucrezia It's a theory of Karl Marx's. I am probably simplifying it too much, though.

@uncalled4 Oh right! He had some interesting things to say, unfortunately they identically too well and never took into account human greed

@Palumbo98lucrezia I minored in philosophy in college. It was one of my favorite subjects. Today, it would be psychology, hands down.

@uncalled4 There's a complexity to studying psychology that lots don't realise and it's the reason so many drop out of studying to conclusion!

@Palumbo98lucrezia Certainly, the physical aspects of it might be taxing to some.

@uncalled4 I'm not sure if it's that or the complexity of psychological theories

@Palumbo98lucrezia Possibly, but everything I have been exposed to makes perfect sense to me. Then again, I saw so many struggling with philosophy, so maybe my brain functions well on that level.
