This belief posits the existence of the real world. Our ideas have a real existence in our brain, and nervous system, but not in an external place.
When I was younger I identified this with Materialism, as expressed by Karl Marx. This philosophy accepted the class struggle, since I am poor, that concept suited me.
Now I want to reconsider.
The U.S.S.R experiment failed, that in itself does not prove or disprove Marxism, nevertheless in my mind it weakens the belief.
After thinking about Aspect's experiment, and Bell's inequalities, I feel my materialism is naïve. Also 't Hooft's Holographic Principle has made me reconsider.
Non-local phenomena, forces me to think anew.
