Can you prove solipsism true? — Darkneos

I thought that it's unproveable like the simulation hypothesis because there's no way to get outside of it to know for sure. — Darkneos

So I’m wondering what kind of “proof” it’s supposed to be — Darkneos

I think Watkins account in Confirmable and influential metaphysics the better. — Banno

I am not familiar with it. — T Clark

Solipsism is true in the sense of what is 100% certain - our own existence. — Agent Smith

You do realise that that's not what solipsism says, Smith? Not I exist, but I alone exist — Banno

Pluralitas non est ponenda sine necessitate — William of Occam

Who are you asking? — Banno

Solipsism is not a choice, human beings or a human being is even in strict scientific terms a subjective entity, a subject, everything that happens to me is in my own subjective bubble. But, this is not where i see where the problem is at. The problem comes when, if you even come to the realization that solipsism is true, and that no event can exist without you consciously being subjectively aware of it, why would a solipsist or any person, put himself inside a simulated reality that basically restricts him in his wishes, fantasies, and absolute freedom. If you are infact first and foremost, outside of the simulated reality and have absolute freedom to do with yourself whatever you want, restricting yourself to a simulation even if it is self imposed, inside one’s own mind is really hard to understand. Because you would basically go into a span of about 80 years, experiencing even suffering, physical or psychological, being restricted in what you can do, example, no absolute control or freedom over matter, or the mind-matter relationship, i agree that it is hard to understand subjectivity and its logic that way. But, still, that does not negate solipsism. Because you also get to experience amazing beautiful things and extend your freedom further to the point of physical liberation or end which results in death, but you only end your own mind simulation. The whole process of solipsism is that every minute, date, month, year and second is a carefully planned event that must ultimately lead to absolute freedom, that is the end point of solipsism, to be able to do whatever you want, and without your subjectivity in that state ever ending.

But nothing is certain though...so would that mean nothing exists. I mean at the ground level of any sort of system you build you make assumptions or axioms, without that you can't get anywhere. — Darkneos
