I'm speaking loosely and using "dualism" to mean "not physicalism". I don't feel the ambiguity makes much practical difference.
It makes an enormous difference, especially given that "dualism" and "not physicalism" are not the same thing. There is, for example, several varieties of non-physicalist monism.
Perhaps you should explain what 'physicalism' means to you.
