    I know we don’t experience the same universe. But realists won’t accept that fact.

      I thought you said I was a “religious realist” and yet I do accept that. So does that mean you were wrong?

        No, it means you’re being inconsistent. A day ago you said if I didn’t experience the same reality as you, if I thought reality wasn’t real (objective), I must be mentally ill. How do you square this contradiction?

          You already pasted what I said and now you’re lying about it again.

          This is the worst attempt at gaslighting I have ever seen and that’s quite the feat.

            See, that’s another contradiction. First you accuse me of psychosis and say my disbelief in reality is mental illness. But now you’re saying it’s all intentional, I’m not experiencing a different reality than you, I’m just lying about it to try and make you think you’re crazy. Sorry, but wouldn’t the person who called me mentally ill for disagreeing be the one who’s trying to convince me I’m crazy? You know, the definition of gaslighting? Wouldn’t you be the gaslighter for telling me I’m psychotic?

              This gaslighting would work a lot better if you didn’t already paste the screenshot of me saying I didn’t know if you had psychosis.

                Right, you insinuated psychosis and then changed it to a nonspecific accusation of mental illness

                  Your words:

                  First you accuse me of psychosis

                  I literally did the opposite of that. I don’t know why you feel the need to keep lying.
