Solipsism:

Neo wakes up to discover the 'real world' was a fabricated computer simulation called "The Matrix"...

But in this story there is one crucial difference,
he wasn't rescued by anyone, in fact, there's no one in the 'real' real world at all. He is alone, w/ his Deceiver
Phenomenal Consciousness:

It is difficult to describe, admittedly, so I will have to show you... that is, show you what-it-is-like to see the world through another's eyes. Even to see the world at all. Maybe for the very first time.
Phenomenal, isn't it?

Illusionism/Eliminative Materialism:

To be not only colorblind, but also shapeblind, touchblind, soundblind, sightblind, tasteblind, feelingblind, thoughtblind. Experienceblind. Indeed it-is-not-like-anything to be you.
Terminate prgrm (CartesianTheatre)
Problem of Other Minds:

While I am certain that it-is-like-something to be me (my world is colorFUL), how can I know it-is-like-something, like-ANYthing to be you? To be anyone?

Do you believe the tears shed by those seeing color for the 1st time? Or are you Neo, a Mindblind?
