There's practical value in talking to others even if you believe they aren't conscious like you. In video games, you talk to various NPCs to get what you want/need to win the game.

Not to say I believe in solipsism, but that the logic holds as long as the belief is held. You can believe in solipsism and talk to others. But what you can't do is believe in solipsism and believe that others exist. Hence, Leo says you are him, everything is imaginary, there is no self, there are no others, only Self/God exists, etc...

Now, the leap from that to Love is a difficult one for me to comprehend.

I’m curious about your perspective on solipsism.

pure solipsism as Leo presents it is obviously false .

Let's not get it twisted.

Solipsism isn't a belief system.

People just don't believe solipsism. 

I cant get mad at them cuz they're doin the lords work.

Awakening is the moment you realize that you have been here for all of eternity. Look around the here and now. It’s all Condciousness. 

Leo Gura cannot live for all of eternity since he is a finite human being.

Leo Gura is a figment of consciousness.

YOU invented LEO.

Wow!

Meow!

No one gets out of here alive.

But we still live forever.

I think thats called a win win or something.

I think it's an interesting perspective. But it doesn't help me in everyday life matters.

So I don't discard it entirely, but I also hold it loosely, not as absolutely true, but as interestingly true.

It's not false, but also its opposite is not false either. It's a paradox. Multiple contradictory perspectives can be and are all true at the same time. It depends on where you look at it from.

My main issue with people who believe in solipsism is that they make it the only true perspective or as they call it the "absolute truth", when there's truth in every perspective. They lock themselves in a box, and then they struggle to explain anything outside of it.
