minus-square@sartalonlink2•6 months agoWhat do you mean by seeing? Like they don’t see images in their mind?
minus-square@sartalonlink1•6 months agoI definitely see images, but not specifics. For example, I can see my wife’s face, in my mind, but I can’t draw from that memory. Like I am seeing the images from a distance, but if I try to focus on a detail, the image falls apart.

We don’t.

Some people do. Many of us don’t.
