My existence is subjective. Therefore any reality whose existence is assumed on my basis is also subjective.

I don’t think you know what these words mean.

That’s because you’re afraid to have an intellectually honest discussion with someone who disagrees with you. It’s easier to pretend people who disagree with you don’t exist.
The fact that the self is an illusion is not a new idea. Surely you’ve heard of it. But you’d rather pretend that I don’t believe in it than to have an actual conversation considering its implications.
Western neurotypicals are so very concerned with ego. It’s unhealthy.

Dude. I’m always looking for a challenge. But you aren’t being a challenge— you’re being obnoxious. Tone it down a notch, and then maybe we can both respect and listen to each other, and entertain some philosophical ideas that we might not ultimately accept, like true intellectuals.
