We've been conditioned to assume that there must always be two sides to a story. So much so that in the effort to ensure a 'fair and balanced' presentation, legitimacy has been afforded to those who seek to impose their own 'alternative facts' as if such a notion were even viable. In a universe of facts and alternative facts, what is reality?

That’s it exactly.
I attempt to see reality by remembering that I’m observing the social behaviors of a dangerous aggressive species of great ape.
Although having the perceptions and brain biology of that species is an eternal obstacle, there are ways to achieve some measure of objectivity.
