It may be insane to the typical person, but if you start to objectify the lens that is active, then you can see there are multiple conflicting truths.
As an example:
Belief 1: The floor I am standing on is real.
Of course it is real. I can experience it right now.
Belief 2: The floor I am standing on is not real.
Of course it is not real. Most materials are empty space and our nervous system generates the experience of solidity. Besides, time doesn't exist as there is only this present experience so there is no container for material things to exist in.
I regard both of these as true from different lenses.
Is it insane? Maybe. But it also avoids a ton of existential angst.
