I mean sure we accept it, but we do put dreams to a high regard. Hence why you can say something is dreamy, or a dream come true.
Maybe we don’t know enough about dreams yet?

We know a ton about dreams, we just don't know why exactly sleep "recharges" the brain which I find fascinating.
This guy assumes people write off dreaming but when I was 17 I was utterly fascinated with the subject and researched lucid dreaming for many years, even teaching myself how to do it. That rabbit hole is absolutely wild.
If anyone is interested in the subject, check out the book "Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming" by Stephen LaBerge, or watch the film Waking Life.
I think the commonly accepted theory is that your brain is sorting through the day, through problems, through life. Even just playing. This makes sense seeing as how quickly humans fall apart without sleep.
I was so tired once, that all I could hear was The Spice Girls Wannabe, and just the chorus because I never actually listened to their music, just the repetition of:
YO, I'ᒪᒪ TEᒪᒪ YOᑌ ᗯᕼᗩT I ᗯᗩᑎT ᗯᕼᗩT I ᖇEᗩᒪᒪY, ᖇEᗩᒪᒪY ᗯᗩᑎT
SO TEᒪᒪ ᗰE ᗯᕼᗩT YOᑌ ᗯᗩᑎT, ᗯᕼᗩT YOᑌ ᖇEᗩᒪᒪY, ᖇEᗩᒪᒪY ᗯᗩᑎT
We slip through the veil of reality, do we.
It helps having an idea of what causes the phenomenon, certainly. I get a lot calmer about basically everything when I know just what the hell is going on.
And you wonder why your dog is so fucked up lol
Pretty neat huh?
What more proof do you need that materialism is bullshit?
I don't dream and when I do they are usually mundane like going to work. Which makes me sleep in as I think I am already heading to work
