You appear to be making objective claims, applying them to matthewmunari, and then claiming that those objective claims apply only to you.

This is an objective claim about the nature of reality that you're implying is true for everybody. Are you only applying your objective knowledge to people that agree with you, and then when someone disagrees with you, suddenly it's subjective and personal? Are you just making things up and hoping people will agree with you? Why should anyone take this seriously?

I understand that no one has to take this seriously, but then, what's the difference between a crazy person spouting nonsense and you? Why believe the crazy man's assertions above your own? The distinguishing factor would be evidence--the ability to link our ideas objectively through the empirical evidence of reality.
