Not gain knowledge or gain the right knowledge or even think better, because those are constrained to certain assumptions. I want to escape illusions. How do I do that and get better at that?

    If perspective is illusory, then learning more subjective perspectives will help you see commonalities and find additional ways to address them.

    You may not believe that the writer has valid perspectives, but you will learn more about how perspectives are presented.

      I don’t mean that the writer might have invalid perspectives, I mean that the assertion that ideas have a central importance is itself an error of perspective. Thinking might not matter as much as we think it does.
