The Kantian nightmare is dead without it, so the "things-in-
themselves" BS matters everything to be Kantian.

You're being just be as slly as any Kantian could ever dream to be
now. FFS consensus aint gonna stop the sun from ****ning nor stop the
bus from running you over.
When consensus, which can only apply among man, is the only thing
keeping you alive as you appear to be saying, then consensus has
become your biggest threat and your worst enemy.
You seem wi****ng a middle ground between faith and reason, where there
aint one, su****ne.
A zillion humans having a consensus aint gonna stop a tree being what
it is.
There was a consensus in Nazi Germany and of course among Kantians and
mystics.
Logic, in the context of reason as man's only means to hs knowledge,
logic means nothing more than, non-contradictory identification and
integration.
