Naive realism/Rutte: with the question: "does the object have the color also when we do not look", we do not mean that the object moves when we go out, but we ask with it whether it has the mode of appearance.
((s) And this question only makes sense if it is related to subjects.)
Rutte: to speak of the mode of appearance of the object means as much as: the thing has this mode of appearance, even if nobody perceives it.
Perception problem: consists not in the question whether we can perceive things as they are, but whether we have good reasons to conclude from our experiences to a causer of these experiences.
