Our sensory perceptions often deceive us, as do our perceptions of social & political phenomena.
Most importantly, our perception of the #NationState as a nation is a deception. It's an Orwellian construct, which even political scientists fail to recognise. @epkaufm @EPoe187

The reason that political scientists & others fail to recognise the true nature of the state is because we are ALL so dependent on it. We see it as we are taught to see it. We are taught to love our nation, & with it, #BigBrother. 
I was inspired to post the initial tweet of this short thread by my previous retweet of a photo of the Moon & Jupiter with its 4 Galilean moons, which all appear to be in a straight line, which, of course, they are not, because we don't perceive depth at that distance.
