The definition also carries out that there is no such thing as absolute reality as well, hence Snake's MGS2 final speech oozed with it. Like it or not, it actually DOES promote it. It fits the definition. Or do I really have to post those quotes proving it? Ha! What a complete misreading of MGS2's ending. "No point in believing in anything at all." Right.
