But, if someone, anyone, wishes us to notice a certain thing, is this just not another way to skew our perception?
This is my point, all the many ways our brains obviously operate, which are self evident, and how this may obviously used to control, induce and skew:problem, reaction, solution....
The problem is nature's tendency to accommodate the observation to the point that "reality" is actually in flux. Our point of view can never be discounted from the "facts".
“‘But how can they do this, don Juan?’ I asked, somehow angered further by what he was saying. ‘Do they whisper all that in our ears while we are asleep?” “‘No, they don’t do it that way. That’s idiotic!’ don Juan said, smiling. ‘They are infinitely more efficient and organized than that. In order to keep us obedient and meek and weak, the predators engaged themselves in a stupendous manoeuver – stupendous, of course, from the point of view of a fighting strategist. A horrendous manoeuver from the point of view of those who suffer it. They gave us their mind! Do you hear me? The predators give us their mind, which becomes our mind. The predators’ mind is baroque, contradictory, morose, filled with the fear of being discovered any minute now.” Don Juan continues: “‘I know that even though you have never suffered hunger… you have food anxiety, which is none other than the anxiety of the predator who fears that any moment now its manoeuver is going to be uncovered and food is going to be denied. Through the mind, which, after all, is their mind, the predators inject into the lives of human beings whatever is convenient for them. And they ensure, in this manner, a degree of security to act as a buffer against their fear.’
If this is true we are all looking in the wrong direction! the enemy is not your brother or sister! not another country or even no another planet.! The enemy that we must challenge is with us right now! and It is making us numb and weak everyday!

They have been here since the beginning of time, they know us better than we know ourselves, they keep us prisoners.
It is really just that simple, isn't it? If I can make you see or not see something, then I can control what you consider to be "true," can I not? And then If I can control your perception of "time," then I can reset it, spin it, do absolutely anything I want with it, and therefore, totally define what we consider "reality," can't I?
What I observe and experience is truly unique to me, and others do not have the same journey, which is pretty cool in one sense and another can be frustrating.
The OP is suggesting that our entire environment, and us within it, are almost enirely mechanically manipulated, so that you believe absolutely what you wrote.
Because the Tzimtzum results in the "empty space" in which spiritual and physical Worlds and ultimately, free will can exist, God is often referred to as "Ha-Makom" (המקום lit. "the Place", "the Omnipresent") in Rabbinic literature ("He is the Place of the World, but the World is not His Place"[2]). In Kabbalistic interpretation, this describes the paradox of simultaneous Divine presence and absence within the vacuum and resultant Creation. Relatedly, Olam — the Hebrew for "World/Realm" — is derived from the root עלם meaning "concealment". This etymology is complementary with the concept of Tzimtzum, in that the subsequent spiritual realms and the ultimate physical universe, conceal to different degrees the infinite spiritual lifeforce of creation. Their progressive diminutions of the Divine Ohr (Light) from realm to realm in creation, are also referred to in the plural as secondary tzimtzumim (innumerable "condensations/veilings/constrictions" of the lifeforce). However, these subsequent concealments are found in earlier, Medieval Kabbalah. The new doctrine of Luria advanced the notion of the primordial withdrawal (a dilug - radical "leap"), in order to reconcile a causal creative chain from the Infinite, with finite Existence
"Nihilism can also take epistemological or metaphysical/ontological forms, meaning respectively that, in some aspect, knowledge is not possible, or that reality does not actually exist. The term nihilism is sometimes used in association with anomie to explain the general mood of despair at a perceived pointlessness of existence that one may develop upon realising there are no necessary norms, rules, or laws.[2] Movements such as Futurism and deconstruction,[3] among others, have been identified by commentators as "nihilistic" at various times in various contexts."
we can be made to appear to be anything, absolutely, that whomever is in control of those things, wishes us to be.......
This Spirit is not touched or affected by situations or circumstances. It means that from the viewpoint of the Spirit, karma and reincarnation are illusory. When one is able to realize this understanding on a deep level, one goes beyond karma and reincarnation. When the Consciousness of the Spirit is "awakened", through concentration and meditation, one realizes that he is an integral part of the eternal and undivided Spirit. He experiences a Spiritual Awakening, and then both reincarnation lose their meaning power and reality
Why cant Anomie within a "love" paradigm be a viable alternative? Who imposes these laws. I did not consent at birth to be born into this slavery. Or maybe I was an unruly soul in a previous incarnation and thats why I am in this slave world, to learn the value of freedom again. We strive to overcome the Veil Of Forgetfullness, to aspire to our true soul (not-self) where their is no duality
