So in other words, when we the we have consciousness

There is a way that things seem to us.

That is the stream of consciousness

It is actually the

content of the seeming that those folks before Dennett, and Dennett picks up on this, were denying to exist.

So if uh it seems that I'm seeing an orange after image, right?

That's a that's a optical illusion.

So I'm looking at an orange light and then I guess you turn the lights off really fast, but I see I continue to see the orange light.

It's an orange after image.

Uh we know that there's nothing in the actual world that is that after image.

This is just

A byproduct of how my brain and my eyes work, and it would be absurd as Galen Strawsson pointed out.

in our recent episode here, to say

Well, uh certainly uh you know, if you deny that this that that the person is seeming to see

is having the experience of an orange after image, well that would be denying the thing to be explained, right?

Consciousness explained.

He's trying to explain why we have that perception, despite the fact that there is no orange after image in the world.

So the question is just

The qualia, the qualai in this that's always the the singular, the qualai in this sense is not the having of the experience.

No one is denying that he's having the experience.
