Indeed, the mistake of Plato was to think that the fact a pen is a pen, it
floats in an overreal world (above our heads). But, the other option is that
this fact is inside the pen, and, bingo, we have the existentialist
participationism. This is nothing else than an alternative to realism,
impersonalism, idealism and solipsism. Marx had a genial idea: matter knows
matter. In fact, participationalism is: existence knows existence.
