[@botshelomoatshe2747]

[@defabc6676]

But what you refer to as "alone" is based on previous experiences, and based on the fact you think it is possible not to be "alone" (because if it is possible to be alone, it is also possible to not be alone). If you think it's possible not to be "alone" it means you've experienced not being "alone" before, even though, at that time, you were still "alone in your mind", so it's a contradiction. Most of the times you start feeling this way, or feeling that nothing makes sense, it is a flawed statement, because it contradicts true experiences you had in the past, and I keep seeing people fall in this trap over and over. For example, you may think "everything I have and will ever done is predestined to be this way, because that's how matter works. If I were to create a 100% perfect computer simulation of the Big Bang, everything would repeat itself and the necessary information for the whole universe would already be contained and determined in the Big Bang. Therefore I have no free will, because I am just matter reacting to other matter". The last sentence is a flawed statement. Just because you dwelved deeper into how things work, it doesn't mean you don't have "free will". In the past, you have made choices, by which you defined "free will" to yourself. Now you claim that your own definition of "free will" doesn't exist to you even though you've experienced it and defined it in the past. I might have ranted for wayy too long but I always wanted to talk about this

More difficult I think. It's like discovering a completely new sense. After all, a deaf person can't understand the sensation of hearing even if he can see. But we can see so a new color wouldn't be that surprising if we compare it to a blind person seeing for the first time.

So you all exist, and when you die, you no longer exist. So when you die, you are gone. But how? And think of the universe. It’s exists. And according to science the universe is expanding, which means it does have an end. Then what’s outside of the end? It can’t be an endless loop of things outside, just like the universe can’t be endless. And if nothing exists, then how does it work? Nothing has to exist but if nothing exists, what is the world?

[@TheOnlySnappera]

Not all is lost. Wavelength is the same to everyone. It's just our interpretation of that wavelength. So we can both say wavelength 'x' is within the visible range, and it has a numeric value. How our brains assign a colour to that wavelength though is completely subjective. It's like how some birds perhaps see UV, but we don't. We know UV wavelengths are there, and they have a value, but our brain has no subjective way to interpret that value, whilst birds do. My favourite example is sonar. Bats 'see' via sonar. But what is it like for a bat to 'see' like that? Is it like hearing? It a mental image made in their minds? What is that mental image like? We can never know. Our brains are just not evolved to function like that.

I had a similar thought about what you said about animals not asking questions. I had 3 dogs that were nearly identical, one of them took a dump in the living room while I wasn’t looking, and rather than trying to blend in with the other 2 dogs, he quickly tried to hide and looked ashamed when I found him, and so I theorized that the dog didn’t even question weather or not did I know it was him, he just assumed I knew the same things as him.

[@eliasejerblom8072]

Interesting🤔

[@WhoGaveHit]

While you are correct, i think there might be extra reason (just a thought that came to my head). Dog sense of smell is much superior than ours, a dog might know which poop belong to which dog by the smell of it, therefore the dog probably think you know it's him because he doesn't know your sense of smell can't tell which poop belongs to which dog

Imagine we all have the same favorite color, we just see it differently

[@pianomansjpm]

I’m 38 years old, and since I was a young kid I have always wondered this very thing. Yes, we can (mostly) all acknowledge that a color is green, but how do I know what “your” green looks like compared to mine? I hope that someday someone figures out a way to determine this. Physically we can see how neuro pathways are identical in interpreting information. But do the “negatives” that are given to our brains produce the same “photograph,” or are they different? I really hope that someday someone can answer this question.

[@OddWheelThriver]

I’ve wondered the same thing. I doubt it’ll ever be answered though unless we somehow evolve to sense colors with hearing or touch. Smell and taste would probably lend to the same questions as sight.

[@MCtime5thebeat]

Unfortunatley the by far most likely scenario is that we do all see them as basically the same but there will never be a way to prove that we do cause it can always be said that "there could just be another test we haven't though of yet." The only way we could ever know for sure is if it were proven true that are perceptions of color are different, but its so unlikely that that's true that there's a very good chance we'll just always wonder.

[@mahekshah9337]

Sence of taste is the same because if you give a new born baby a lemon for the first time his facial expressions are the same

[@eschorg]

I am no scientist, but i think if we figured a way to convert sensory information like (colour, taste, imaginations, etc...) into patterns of non-sensory info, then we can detect how much different we percieve colour for every mind, but it might not work too because i do not have any idea if thoughts and learning is not a standelone experience as well. There is a possibility that we might never know.

The margin of error would be less. He just doesn't know much about the specialized cells in our eyes, the capabilities of them to tell so many colours apart probably.
