We do know when some things are true, and when observing the world we can talk about truth under certain assumptions. As in “it’s True the sun didn’t explode yesterday, assuming we aren’t all living in a simulated reality run by aliens in a different solar system billions of years from now the exact day after the sun exploded, or similar possible scenarios”

And while everyone loves to run in circles around the argument “but how can you know with certainty” the fact is that I am as certain that this assumption holds as I am that it provides no value at all to continually question if reality is really real, you’d have to take that as an assumption to ever have any kind of value adding discussion.

The people who insist we can’t know if anything is definately true must agree that they can’t know if that assertion is definitely true, so they sort of kill their own argument axiomatically.
