Prof Jiang Xueqin: The Illusion of Reality — How Power Works

Описание: This opening lecture from Professor Jiang Xueqin’s Predictive History course lays the philosophical foundation for understanding how power, money, and belief shape our perception of reality.

Using Immanuel Kant’s ideas of Noumena and Phenomena, Jiang explains that reality is not objective — it’s imagined through the mind. He then connects this insight to geopolitics, money creation, education, and religion, showing how every system we trust may be a controlled illusion designed to maintain power.
