How do you disprove solipsism?

Question

In a research paper, what ideas, philosophers, theories would you use to disprove the idea of solipsism?

my spelling of the word is correct, thank you. Or IS it? lol..do these words even exist?

Answer 1

Solipsism claims that the only possible knowledge is consciousness. This assertion entails that the actual perception of reality is impossible, because only concepts of the consciousness exist. The mechanism of perception is self evident, but the solipsist believes that an object of perception is totally illusory. On the other hand, the solipsist must realize that perception is given by perceptual stimuli. Thus there is a contradiction. Solipsism is flawed because it attempts to redefine reality as an illusion. Reality is self evident, not ad-hoc.

Honestly I have no idea but was curious as to what it was so I looked it up. I would need to look more into it but the idea itself is intriguing but couldn't there be a balance of it?

Answer 3

Solipcists don't REFER to reality.

So all their arguments are fkn meaningless.

Answer 4

solipsists are those who consider nothing exists outside one's conscience, aren't they?
You disprove it by any teaching you like I guess. If you can and if you feel like.
as for me, i kind of like the theory.

Answer 5

By proving that you're not god, just your spelling proves that.
So relax you have made your point.
