No. Things do exist, but nothing is totally independent. And everything (and everyone) depends on the perception of others. My computer exists, but only humans (and only certain humans)perceive it as that. How does the fly that sits on top of the monitor perceives it? As a computer? Or only as a surface to place itself on?
And how about a tribesman from the Amazonas? How would he perceive the computer? Only as an object, but not with the same definition as I do.
