I'm just asking what people think about it. The dude seems pretty convinced that he has buried materialism once and for all but then my follow up question would then be "how is what he is saying not solipsism"? Because his writings, especially the second link, seem to point to solipsism if everything is mental as he puts it.


You just published a link to someone's blog, Frozenworld. It's just something somebody wrote. No one needs to prove anything to publish a blog. What you're doing here is JAQing off, asking idle questions without giving any thoughts of your own. One suspects you have none you wouldn't be embarrassed to reveal. When you ask "how is what he's saying not solipsism?", the onus is more on you to give the 'how', instead of asking someone else to feed you the answer, as if you're writing an essay for high school.

It's a blog, for fuck's sake, FW. There are millions upon millions of blogs out there, and millions of others reciting their little turds of wisdom into a webcam on youtube.


I'm asking whether his stuff is true or not. I don't really know anything about philosophy to call him on this.
