Good Read - "Can Solipsism Be Disproven?"

Seems like bull

 

The logic is pulling all this 3D, 4D and 5D stuff out of thin air. At every turn or statement you can take issue with it. 

It starts off it's entire logic chain with the premise two bubbles A and B exist (so it already assumes solipsism is false), and then also uses entirely false logic for what it would mean for bubbles A and B to overlap. 

What you've linked is someone assuming solipsism is false, and then giving incorrect logic for how this would be proven if so 


Hark ye yet again — the little lower layer. All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event — in the living act, the undoubted deed — there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? To me, the white whale is that wall, shoved near to me. Sometimes I think there's naught beyond. But 'tis enough.
