Wew lad.
But why wouldn't it exist? Qualia is just senses, right?
>>2031666
Qualia are literally the only things we can all be sure exist. I'd disbelieve in everything else before I disbelieved in them.

No, qualia are a figment of how our brains construct reality. Take color for instance, people think it's "just" wavelengths but in fact the same wavelength of light can appear as different colors depending on the situation. The "qualia" of color is something our brains add to the images we see, if you were to lose the ability to see colors, the world wouldn't just be black and white, it would be utterly bewildering.

yeah but i think its a matter of what qualia actually means and is it meaningfully distinct from other constructs in the world.

but then qualia exists as our brain?
