I think it really shows just how vast the different realities people live in truly are, and how often those individual or collective realities don't really align with actual reality. The human mind is great at convincing an individual that their biases are the truth, when they can be extremely far from it.

Which poses a fun philosophical question: if 90% of a given population perceive something to be true, does that make it reality?
