Given a set of axioms and some agreed rules of inference, the same

But people can kicked stone in dreams too.
But do they wake up with broken or bruised toes?
Do they ever wake up?
Solipsist!
Another solipsist? Phew! I was worried I might be the only one.
Surely it isn't a crime to be a solipsist. What's socially
unacceptable about the belief that you are the only mind and that
"all other minds" are you as well?
I would not call that solipsism, which usually assert simply that the
"other mind" simply does not exist. But OK. (Taking your sense).
Sounds to me like we should make AS IF this is true because it seems
to be a way to get humans to respect each other more. Solipsism is a
useful belief to maintain. It emphasises how alike we all are which
leads to love of self and selves rather than emphsises our cosmetic
differences which leads to war.
OK.
