modal realist

Modal realism is the philosophical view that all possible worlds—alternative ways reality could have been—are as real and concrete as our actual world. Think of it as a belief that every different version of reality envisioned by imagination or logic exists somewhere, just not necessarily accessible to us. For example, a possible world where history took a different turn is just as real in this view as our world. These possible worlds are not just ideas; they are real, existing in a kind of landscape of all that could be, whether they are actualized or not.
