A subjective reality is a contradiction. Either there is an objective reality, or there isn't any reality at all. Reality exists independent of human thought.

If you operationalize "reality" as "objective reality," then of course it's going to be a contradiction. No reason to do that, however. And I'd love to see a proof of the existence of reality outside of human thought. What is the thing-in-itself? What does it look like, and how do we know it exists?

We cannot live, as you seem to perpetuate, as if we had no knowledge of anything. I don't think you can live this way either.

Sure we can; it just requires a suspension of universal judgment about things-in-themselves.

There is no other way for us to know, understand, or exist outside of our five senses. If you can conceive of another way, then please elaborate for our benefit. But, as it is, any notion of super-empiricism, even if it has substance, is completely meaningless to a human being because human beings have no access to that realm of thought.

lol, such sloppy thinking. Do you not see the direct contradiction here?
