In regards to being authentic We don't see the world as it is. We see the world as we are.Being authentic requires an acceptance of the flawed paradoxical nature of our own reality so that an attempt at being authentic, changes in relation to how we think. In simple terms, we feel shit and we look for evidence that validate how we feel and act accordingly. Your authenticity might be based on how shit your feel life is. If wearing a mask and posting on a puerile website full of mostly 50+yr old men while living in the Isle of Man is you being authentic then I would look deeply at who you really want to be. Quoting a Far Right Politicians response to COVID and bemoaning the horrific treatment of Palestinians by a Far Right government shows a level of incongruity that tells me your authenticity is based on ill health rather than anything with any substance.
