Naive realism is the belief that we perceive the world exactly as it is, objectively and without distortion. It's the assumption that what you see, hear, and feel is a direct and accurate representation of reality. It means believing that everyone else perceives the world in the same way you do. It doesn't account for individual differences in perception, biases, or interpretations. It is like assuming everyone sees the same color you do, without realizing that color perception can vary. Imagine it like taking a picture with your phone, and assuming the picture is an exact copy of reality.
