Lefties are living in a complete alternate reality.

Lefties are living in a complete alternate reality.

Mr. Adams has a way of describing that. He describes us as watching "different movies", where we have different ways to interpret and make sense of the ongoing narrative.

Scott Adams actually covers that in his videos on the 2 movie hypothesis. He linked at some point to an article that we don’t have to live in reality, only a system of behavior that meets our evolutionary goals.

I’d go one step further and quote Heinlein, such as a mother’s delusions about her child’s intelligence and beauty serve an evolutionary purpose - keeping her from killing the inconvenient creature at birth.
