how does dr. manhattan perceive time?

Let's consider a simplified analogy.

...

You read a novel once.

Now,

you've read the novel multiple times and know the story from start to finish.

...

You flip to a single page and can describe with exact detail what happened previous to that moment and what will happen next.

Now,

imagine you are a character in said novel.

...

You are aware of every minute aspect of the plot and each character's meticulously designed backstory.

But,

you cannot

change

the narrative.

For Jon, the past, present and future occur simultaneously.
