All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpret

Summary

This quote suggests that interpretations of events or ideas are not inherently based on truth, but rather influenced by the power dynamics at play. The prevailing interpretation is not necessarily the most accurate or truthful, but rather the one determined by those in power. Different perspectives and interests shape these interpretations, highlighting the subjective nature of truth and the role that power plays in shaping our understanding of reality.
