rhe choice between one and two, black and white or true and false brings up the issue of objective truth.
two and two is four.
two and two is "five" is what wnston smith had to accept.
if what you feel is truth then subjective truth is correct.
I feel like a giraffe today.
am I a giraffe ?
( to those who read and do not scroll thru their phones you might know who Winston Smith is...ortherwise, instead of looking into your own mind history I guess you will have to "Google your mind". ...and not have one ).

And there are a lot of fields where you have reality.
Life expectancy is a truthful criterion, but doesn't describe, wehn you will die.

What Winston Smith had to accept was the fact the world was changing, and he was frightened at what those changes would mean.

@the-grifter saidLets define "black" and "white".
rhe choice between one and two, black and white or true and false brings up the issue of objective truth.
Physically that would mean no signal on the visible spectrum: black, (at least) full signal on the same spectrum: white. (A recent publication on the most black substance ever developped has still about .1% reflection of incoming light...)
If you ask a painter he will tell you that there is no "real" black or white. And you can have "whiter than white" which is actually true, since part of the ultraviolett spectrum is projeted into the visible using flourescence...
