As many have pointed out, the qualia I experience when looking at something red may be entirely different from the qualia you experience when looking at the same thing, but the same may also be true for consciousness. What I think of as consciousness might just be a weak pale reflection of the enormously larger and grander consciousness that you experience everyday, so compared to you I am a philosophical zombie. Or maybe the reverse is true. Neither of us will ever know.
