"They see exactly what we want them to see". Is that sure? Even the painter doesn't have an absolute control over his canvas, and given all the misunderstandings and kerfluffles happening on LJ I'll be prudent about that.
As for the certainty of being watched, well it isn't that sure either. The comments only show that there was a watcher/writer reflecting himself/herself, not that we are being watched because there's always a time-lag, a gap and a place outside, unreachable. Actually every comment is a new canvas indeed, and a new mirror causing illusion and uncertainty even turned around.
LJ is like a converstaion with ghosts, or rather between ghosts!
