“Lived Reality” is a term derived from the subjective, personal experience of an individual. Similar terms like “direct experience” and “firsthand experience” help define the specific meaning of “lived reality.” What is most descriptive, however, is its antonyms. The Power Thesaurus lists ten opposites of lived reality as: acted, playacted, feigned, faked, played, pretended, simulated, bluffed, fooled, and play-acted.
Words matter, and the ten opposites listed infer that anything that is not experienced firsthand is not authentic. The actual antonym for lived reality is objective reality. In the woke, realm of subjective reality where “lived reality” is the metric, only feelings matter. In the impersonal, verifiable, realm of objective reality, facts are the metric.

Objective reality always prevails.
