Reality is something that is really true. Reality is mind-independent, i.e. reality would continue to be the case whether or not anyone believed it, or indeed whether or not there were any minds to believe it in the first place.
Reality is the something conservatives can not handle. It comprises all of "that which is".
- "That which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away." -- Philip K. Dick
