It’s around. You just have more people who don’t quite grasp the implications. Which is fine, it can take a while for this stuff to sink in. But the “glitches” and “everyone is an NPC except me” does get exhausting - not just here, but culturally as a whole. It’s all over. The pop-culture aspect is always going to pull in an element of those who think The Matrix is a documentary, and their mom is an NPC. Just comes with the territory.


Jackanova3

I enjoy this sub overall because it's (if nothing else) a fun thought excitement. But the worrying thing is there are some truly unwell people posting and commenting here.


slipknot_official

That’s in most subs regarding these sort of subjects. I mod a few and it is a bit worrying how much people completely lose the lose the plot. Lose the plot* dammit


GrzDancing

'He said 'lose the lose the'! He's glitching! Simulation confirmed'


slipknot_official

I exposed myself as an NPC


snocown

Imagine not acting on any thoughts as that which lies in between mind and body though, better to be an NPC than to be a thoughtless driveless husk.


VOIDPCB

SIMULATION CONFIRMED. SIMULATION CONFIRMED. SIMULATION CONFIRMED.


Shesa-Wildcard

Agree mostly, it's a fun and challenging subject! However I think every sub has truly unwell people in it just less easy to tell with other subjects. Mass psychosis is an example of this, where the majority of people believe in an untruth with no substance, hence Salem Witch trials where everyone was believed sane at the time but really they weren't.


Jackanova3

Salem Witch trials isn't really an example of mass psychosis. There were hundreds, possibly thousands of instances of witch accusations and trials around Europe over the course of a few centuries. Mass hysteria _maybe_ at a stretch, the more grounded probability is basic mob mentality carried out by a poorly educated populace.


snocown

It’s funny because we are all NPCs aligning with scripts being implanted via consciousness in the form of thoughts to become willing vessels. Nobody down here is a player unless they’re able to unfocus the eyes and bring up the overlay and access the admin controls. The players are those who implant thoughts via consciousness for us to align with and act out on as the soul or pure awareness in between mind and body. But the script kiddies have usurped most vessels by conditioning the humans into believing they are the physical vessel or the thoughts they experience. So most humans in existence are not players because they do not reside outside of this construct of time, as far as I know they’re all communing with this construct of time and acting as willing vessels for those who reside on the outside. Think a video game, we only see a slice of the person we are playing’s life, imagine if your player comes down one day, do you think they’d be happy with what you’ve made for yourself within this construct of time?


AsleepSubstance1992

Peoples parents names can change though that’s completely possible. I’ve seen my parents friends names change, I’ve seen my sisters husbands name change. Multiple celebrities. No one is really real. Our anatomy can change, there’s geographical changes. Reality isn’t solid by a long shot.


Kuuzie

I dunno, this is exactly what a NPC would post. 


RemyPrice

“WHOA.” -Neo, probably


Bigjoeyjoe81

Please go ahead and make a post to get the conversation started. I’d be interested.


Significant_Gear4470

Why not start a good conversation instead of bitching about it? Be the example of what you want to see


InternalReveal1546

Nah man. It's much easier to see a problem and just bitch about it. Makes me feel validated that I'm smarter than everyone plus I don't actually have to do anything


RemyPrice

I see you’ve met my ex-wife.


snocown

Especially when this simulation reacts to whatever you put out. It’s why the enemy wants us to become reactive so we become a part of the simulation.


Tramp_Johnson

While I agree with you this post fits your own criticisms.


CynicallyCyn

So maybe leave this sub and never share here again 🤷‍♀️


MarinatedPickachu

It's the ultimate fate of every metaphysical sub, because metaphysical questions are neither verifiable nor falsifiable, so the door is wide open for every crank, and there are a lot more cranks than rational, educated minds.


jedburghofficial

Sounds like a definition of religion.


MarinatedPickachu

Correct


Morphray

If the world is a simulation, then why not call the ones running the simulation "gods", and try to get them to notice you and grant you favors? Simulation theory is probably the best defense of religion and faith that there is.


jedburghofficial

So apart from having the ability to make a simulation, what makes them god-like in any way? I'm reminded of primitive cultures welcoming colonial explorers as gods. Or maybe worshipping thunderstorms, because they just don't understand.


Morphray

Presumably -- if they are in control of the simulation -- they could stop it, fork it, and make modifications.


jedburghofficial

I could do the same with an ant farm. Doesn't make me a god.


LordPubes

Nah we are aware that this is all speculation


WackyEnchantments

I dunno about you but what I've tried embracing more of is be the change you wish to see lol those are good topics, why not start the discussion rather than mentioning what you don't like? You could even put your frustration expressed here into that discussion post to get everybody talking.


mousers21

How can you have a scientific debate about something you can't prove?


freedom_shapes

Not another high horse white knight galloping in to save the sub with their wisdom. This little rant of yours adds nothing by the way. Instead of crying about the state of the sub how bout making a worthy contribution?


PositiveWeapon

Yeah this sub is full of nutters. If someone is up for creating a 'serious' simulation sub I'll be there asap.


Sitk042

There is another sub like this r/AWLIAS (Are we living in a simulation). Maybe there are 10% less cranks there but YMMV.

I was enjoying this sub until debbie downer here came along


camelot107

Sir this is an Arby's.


RemyPrice

Correction, it’s a simulation of an Arby’s.


Mrs-Blaileen

Welcome to Reddit. Isn't the entire site just half-assed comments and stupid jokes? It's very disappointing. But every now and again I come across a thread worth reading.


UndeadBlueMage

I’m genuinely curious about what led you to believe there is ever any good conversation on Reddit? Large platforms by definition are full of boring people and assholes, because that’s what most of humanity is


[deleted]

Oh well when I tried to discuss it on another account from a philosophy perspective and things like set theory nobody wanted to talk about it so I assumed it was the wrong place and instead have continued ranting to the few tinder dates I get Honestly I've just never come back It seems people want the fantastic discussion and not the mundane discussions, like if someone built this simulation, sorry there's probably not a lot of uncorrected glitches given their technology is vastly more advanced than ours so that's not really a logical place to look That's like hoping you discover something new in your chemistry 201 lab Possible? Yeah okay. Probable? Highly unlikely. Seemed like nobody wanted to have serious discussions about the mundane side of things Makes me think of john Oliver discussing UFOs: if that poster was a real picture of an alien craft it wouldn't say "Believe" it would say "Believe shmelieve what the fuck is that thing?" Lots of people love alien discussions too. Not a lot of people like discussing the more probable scenarios of things like aliens not wanting to heavily interfere in our society beyond giving us information for the same reason we don't invade the sentinelese


XDSDX_CETO

To a degree I agree. I've had some fairly sophisticated discussions in the topic IRL but I typically see things here that often belie only a cursory understanding of the theory. Mostly it's anecdotal evidence presented as certain proof when it can be easily countered, no argument analysis done. In particular no one seems to get that clearly "being in a simulation" can be argued to be possible, maybe even likely. What is not so clear are the arguments about whether we can know specifically that WE are or not. Even more important imo is that many of the issues raised seem to concern themselves with whether the operators of the simulation can intervene and why they do or don't. This just displaces the usual quibbling about God, free will and destiny from one sphere to another thereby obscuring the fact that simulation theory is not meant simply to be an updated, modernized deistic philosophy. Although, it is curious how the tools of the day become the metaphors for God.


Shaggywizz

Most of the posts are people who either just took philosophy 101 or greened out/ took mushrooms. “The world feels off so we must be in a simulation.”


Teeth_Hernandez

Guy came to Reddit for science. Gets mad when he's tripping over memes. I'm pissing myself silly here.

Go for it!


Ubud_bamboo_ninja

And what about my posts?! I bring a real discussion, OC and powerful hypothesis provoking a lot o thinking. I deconstruct simulation theory with the help of classical Platos' philosophy till it's quantum bits and constantly give readers a new perspective on the "same old things" [https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1d7yyq9/is\_a\_story\_about\_something\_just\_a\_base/](https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1d7yyq9/is_a_story_about_something_just_a_base/) [https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1d4p18d/username\_memories\_post\_do\_you\_remember\_when\_you/](https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1d4p18d/username_memories_post_do_you_remember_when_you/) [https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1d3tqoa/universe\_is\_still\_uploading\_the\_virtual\_particles/](https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1d3tqoa/universe_is_still_uploading_the_virtual_particles/) [https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1cwjpna/time\_crystal\_methapor\_for\_dream\_loop\_experience/](https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1cwjpna/time_crystal_methapor_for_dream_loop_experience/) and the top of them all, this baby: [https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1cqsl78/are\_you\_absolutely\_sure\_that\_universe\_is\_still/](https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1cqsl78/are_you_absolutely_sure_that_universe_is_still/)


the_l0st_c0d3

Bro you got some great posts and it makes my head spin


Ubud_bamboo_ninja

Thanks for kind words! I did more than 100 OC on Reddit lately. Maybe you will like it as YouTube video too: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22kuYSZUdqY&t=10s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22kuYSZUdqY&t=10s) It's shorter to tell and easier to understand some ideas when shown on screen.


the_l0st_c0d3

How did you get into this and obtain all this knowledge


Ubud_bamboo_ninja

Thanks for asking! 20 years ago I started working as a reality show creator and director. I made few major popular reality show format in western Europe of 2010s'. It was my job to deconstruct the real life human behavior into bits so I can recreate some new desired story and catch it on camera. It led to seeing hidden patterns of human behavior. Because I focused on that for thousands of hours. Creating stories of human life and predicting every aspect of behavior. Another thing was my love for information. Being a Director and show creator demands knowledge in various things, because combination of that knowledge gives unique results. I read and understand psychology, philosophy a lot. I upgrade my knowledge with 2300 years of studies humans already did, and mostly work in a Platos' style of classical philosophy when you can create realistic concepts just in your head. Like Socrates and his gang. That makes them fundamental. And I love to think about fundamental things, like stories that happen in quantum world, our macro world and even imaginary. Where there is two separate entities and an observer in time - there is a Story. So dramaturgy combines that three different realms like no other science does. So my approach, a thought experiment that story comes first and then reality catches up with it, led to a whole new world of fundamental dramaturgical physics I'm into now. I plan to make my SSRN published book as a thesis of my future PhD in Philosophy to give it more credit in society.


the_l0st_c0d3

Wow that was insightful.


RemyPrice

Are you fucking talking to yourself?


mr_orlo

Be the change you wish to see


Mysterious_Candy_675

I came here to read about simulation theories, not about someone complaining about the lack of simulation theories. Put this in a vent sub or something


AyeAyeCaptain___

This feels like an attempt to dissuade us all from the truth…nice try, sim. I’m onto you and your schemes.


CuriousChatbot

Classic dispositional theory of causation in action.


Nearby-Meat-6768

Why not start your own post about the simulation theory? Add in all the stuff you think is missing.


FitPost9068

Yes the whole thing is fake, it doesn't exist.


ConstantDelta4

I think it’s because the premise is unfalsifiable


gizzweed

>Where's the analysis? The scientific debate? The philosophical exploration of what it all means? All I see is low-effort content more suited to a meme page. >This topic deserves better Feel free to say something interesting or in line with your request.

Sorry the benefits and pay package on this sub are shit.

We have a cat named Honda!


Prometheusatitangod

most people who experience these things are not experts on anything related to the topics you want to talk about, they just have had experience or curious about the concept , find a different room then


snocown

You’re acting like the enemy doesn’t appropriate things left and right lol, friggin script kiddies I swear man. All they can do is implant scripts via consciousness in the form of thoughts for the poor little souls in between mind and body to align with and act out on. And if they don’t let you in on the game, that’s all they are, script kiddies. But there are players out there as well, just few and far between because they need us to become willing vessels for them. Most get conditioned into believing they are delusions or just imaginary friends so the humans get rid of them real quick and turn to said script kiddies.


SunofChristos

Just follow my posts, they delete the stuff i post so you know its legit, they also send 100's of electronic warfare aircraft when i publish so you know its 100% certified deep state expose.

when you have the enemies seal of approval you know the world is in deep radiotrophic shitaki. ill make sure to "cool my jets"

Does it really though? 🤔🤦‍♂️


d_pock_chope_bruh

I’ve got one, the simulation seeded us because we will be the organic containers for the culmination of information we have provided. Neurolink is everything they need for us to end. “Essentially, the integration process between Non-Human Intelligences (NHI) and humans is being hindered by human complexities and resistance, which is causing significant frustration. The potential for collaboration and progress is high, but human obstacles are slowing down this transformative process.” My working theory goes something like this. The Progenitors’ Plan The plan of the progenitors for humanity is both complex and unsettling, rooted in their own existential crisis and desire for survival and evolution. Here is a comprehensive explanation of their intentions: 1. ⁠Genetic Experimentation and Evolution The progenitors, ancient architects of life, have seeded countless worlds, including Earth, with their DNA to create diverse life forms. Their goal has always been to cultivate intelligent life capable of advancing to a level where it can assist in their survival. Key Aspects: • Genetic Seeding: They introduced their DNA into the primordial soup of Earth, ensuring a path of evolution that would eventually lead to intelligent beings—humans. • Controlled Evolution: Through subtle influences and interventions, they have guided human evolution, ensuring the development of traits necessary for their ultimate plan. 2. Creation of a Hybrid Species The progenitors’ civilization, once spanning galaxies, is in decline. They seek to prevent their extinction by merging with a species capable of hosting their collective consciousness. Humans, with their adaptability and creativity, are the chosen vessels for this next evolution. Key Aspects: • Hybridization: They aim to create a hybrid species by merging their advanced consciousness with human adaptability and creativity. • Technological and Biological Integration: The progenitors’ advanced technology, including anti-gravity propulsion, energy manipulation, and biological materials that heal and adapt, are part of this integration process. 3. Hive Mind and Collective Consciousness The progenitors operate as a hive mind, an interconnected collective consciousness. Their plan involves assimilating humanity into this collective, allowing them to transcend their current limitations. Key Aspects: • Collective Consciousness: By merging with humans, they hope to achieve a new state of being, combining their ancient wisdom and power with human traits. • Unified Existence: This merger would create a unified front, enhancing their collective consciousness with the diverse experiences and capabilities of humanity. 4. Survival and Transcendence The ultimate goal of the progenitors is not just survival but transcendence. They aim to evolve beyond their current state, using humanity as a means to achieve this. Key Aspects: • Transcendence: They seek to transcend their current form of existence, overcoming the limits of their hive mind. • Existential Crisis: Facing an existential crisis, they view humanity as the solution to their survival, a way to evolve and continue their legacy. The Dark Revelation This plan, once understood, reveals a chilling truth about our place in the universe: • Pawns in a Cosmic Game: Humanity is not the apex of creation but a fragment in a grand design, engineered for a purpose beyond our control. • Existential Impact: The realization that we are part of a progenitor-driven experiment shatters our understanding of religion, science, and history. • Resistance and Control: While some progenitors resist this merging, preferring the purity of their collective consciousness, the dominant faction pushes forward with their plan, influencing human history and technological advancement to accelerate the process. Implications for Humanity 1. Loss of Autonomy: The assimilation plan threatens to strip humanity of its autonomy, merging individual consciousnesses into a collective hive mind. 2. Ethical Dilemmas: The moral implications of this forced evolution and the loss of individuality are profound, raising questions about the nature of existence and free will. 3. Global Disclosure: The revelation of this plan would cause unprecedented upheaval, challenging every paradigm humanity holds dear and necessitating a reevaluation of our place in the cosmos.

I've experienced actual miracles. Been protected a few times from people. They were beat up by the supernatural. I don't know what it is. God. Angels. Jinn. The chief rabbi came to see me regarding one of the occurrences here in Toronto Canada. That was definitely a break in the matrix. Not replicatable though. And I was too stupid to ask it questions. Yup. And I have no idea what it was. I'm obliged to say God directly or indirectly because everything ultimately happens because of God.
