I can see images in my mind when I hallucinate, and there's no direct
realism involved. I can see images in my mind when I imagine a scene with
my eyes closed, and there's no direct realism involved. Why would I want
to postulate that there's anything special, much less more direct or more
realistic, about perception? If direct realists had any *evidence* of
something special, they wouldn't have to postulate it.
