The crazy thing is that qualia is materialism. This computer you're typing on is a real thing that's also your qualia. The real failure is to say that qualia is a separate thing that doesn't matter in "materialism".

Under materialism, there's a hypothetical "real computer" that is the cause of your computer-qualia, but they are not identical.
