Ah! Reality as a shared delusion. A variation of the "brain in a vat" conundrum.
Fair enough.
Does a shared delusion represent a valid reference?

Does that mean you are all just voices in my head? Or am I just a voice in all of your heads? Kind of a scary thought....me being inside your heads..............

The real question is, which one of us is sufficiently insane to have created this subjective reality?
My suspicions rest with that PF character.

As each of us can be certain only that their own “I” exists, you may be correct. It is possible that “reality”, including the external world and other people have no independent existence, and are only internal events and representations.
