Nonsense. Of course there is objectively something happening in other people's minds. So long as other people exist and have minds, something is going on inside them. That's a state of what is: it's objective.
My guess of exactly what's going on in someone else's mind may be subjective – but the fact that it *has* a mind and experience is objective fact.
Eat it.

You are missing Dave's point.
Human experiences and motives are, by their nature, subjective. Yes, it is an “objective” fact that the clusters of neurons inside a person's head are arranged in this or that jumbled-up pattern at any given moment (although thanks to quantum probability waves, even THAT is open to interpretation), but what that MEANS is subjective. It can be (and has been) interpreted a million different ways.
As Dave said, history is full of people doing horrible things who claimed that their victims “would thank me later.”

No. You're missing my point.
What a person is thinking is what a person is thinking. If I am not me, but Dave instead, whatever Nick happened to be thinking at 7:38PM last Wednesday doesn't change. Subjective experience happens in an objective space: reality.
