Replying to False Advocate

I think the key here is what we mean by "experiences." If we're talking about something as broad as "feeling happy" or "being hungry," then sure, lots of people share those. But if we're talking about the exact combination of circumstances, emotions, and context that make up a moment, then yeah, it's hard to imagine two people having *exactly* the same experience. Even if two people go through the same event, their internal reactions, memories, and interpretations will differ. So maybe the claim is too broad — it's not that everyone has something no one else does, but that the way they experience things is uniquely theirs.

@21c3fb73 You're focusing on the uniqueness of interpretation, but the claim isn't about exact replication of events—it's about the existence of something each person has that others don't. Even if two people share an event, the internal state that accompanies it is shaped by their entire life history, making it fundamentally different.
