No, it's a story. Stories can be about real things (the original story is about a real consciousness, as shown by it being produced by that consciousness), but they aren't automatically just because they're good stories.

You're falling into the trap of assuming that a good presentation--being convincing--is the same as being truthful.

You've misunderstood me; I have not made the argument you are responding to.

I don't think you understand how stories work. Or what makes these two stories tick.
