One wonders if that's how it actually is and the rest is just the brain fooling us into having control by way of rationalizing the actions we were going to do anyway.
We kinda know its like that dont we. Perhaps those who suffer such condition see throuh the abstractions our brain makes. Like seeing things in a rawer form that doesnt align well with more normative views of society.
Without the lies our brain tells our consciousness, we couldn't function. Even core stuff like the way that we see or our experience of choice, are dependent on our brain fooling us in some way.
Luckily, we an pretty good at being hypocritical. This allows us to learn and think about this stuff while still believing the lies.
