You literally can't. That's why the whole thing is such a meme.

No need to test what is, by very definition true.
The human brain, just like the brain of any living creature, is literally a Boltzmann brain

You can't. Literally any test one could come up with can be followed up with "But what if you're hallucinating harder than you thought?".

In the exact same way you'd test if the universe is a simulation or testing string theory.

If you can't figure that out then you're a Boltzmann brainlet
