That's the point.

I am not sure why this is often associated with a pejorative tone, but I see no reason for it. Materialism is the only empirical and certain thing that can be systematically observed and demonstrated. Along that, one can take the interactionist stance and say that materialism operates with subjectivity in a chaotic fashion.

However, I suspect that everything can be reduced to simple activity.

That's a whole other debate including epistemology. Remember, I am including the sense of interactionism with subjectivity.

Want to make a thread on this one? I'll see if I can dig up a good ol Dan Dennett video on the ordeal.

Basically, the argument will rest on the function of memories of colors rather than subjective learning.
