You have yet to show there is not a reality.

I exist therefore I am.

The definition of reality is clear

re·al·i·ty   [ree-al-i-tee] Show IPA
–noun,plural-ties for 3, 5–7.
1.
the state or quality of being real.
2.
resemblance to what is real.
3.
a real thing or fact.
4.
real things, facts, or events taken as a whole; state of affairs:
5.
Philosophy.
a.
something that exists independently of ideas concerning it.
b.
something that exists independently of all other things and from which all other things derive.
6.
something that is real.
7.
something that constitutes a real or actual thing, as distinguished from something that is merely apparent.

If a person wants to think everything is fantasy and fiction that is their choice, the very definition and meaning of reality is shared by many, therefore it is not merely just perception of the individual. I have showed that there is universal truth and a shared reality, you just haven't found the information compelling and do not understand/believe it. Trying to render an argument false on the grounds of personal exclusion is contradictory. Everything typed could be considered ones own perception, but that is not the point of debate. That is to present arguments based on logic and reasoning. This is done through explanation using words like reality which have shared meaning, that shared meaning is defined above. Check the Philosophical definition #5 and contemplate the paradox of even speaking of reality, is reality congruent?
