Isn't it stupid for all the philosophers who have solipsistic ideas to publish any books about said ideas? Since, you know, the people who they are writing the book for don't actually exist.

You wouldn't make a very good philosopher.

>all the philosophers who have solipsistic ideas
Do you mean philosophers who fully believe in a solipstic reality? in which case, name their book. or do you mean philisophers who might have entertained the idea at some time in their life and thought their thoughts worth sharing? in which case, so?

Which philosophers have done that?

I mean Descartes is pretty much the father of solipsism and even he wasn't actually a solipsist. So who are these people yo u think are publishing tomes on the merits of solipsism?
