It's never been harder to convince myself that this is all really happening than sat here looking at this image right now
Is it really happening? Maybe this is all just a simulation to test out how absud they can turn the world around you before you break? Maybe you are just a brain in a jar.
If this is all a simulation then it's still happening I'd say. I'd consider a sentient AI to be a living being in the same sense as a human, so if they count we still count imo
Fair. It would be your reality for all intents and purposes and thus actually real. Huh. Still a shitty reality tho. Cant they put up a simulated universe with catoon physics or something? Ugh.
I mean, I'd argue that whether or not the universe itself is simulated, your reality absolutely is. Your brain simulates reality based off stimuli, but it's not real
But yeah, I've said before that our reality could very well be just a super advanced future videogame about a ridiculous alt-history political scenario
Thats an interesting take. Lets assume its a game with at least one player. Trump would be a prime candidate. Now, if someone puts a bullet in his head in minecraft, would that mean the game is over and our existences would be erased on the spot? Would fucking suck!
I like to imagine that when a simulation ends that iteration of us is freed to explore the simulation as we like
That would be interesting. It would turn one into a literal god of that reality. But you cant count on the benevolence of beings that can simulate a conciousness at will. Why would they value an individual conciousness if they just played a game in wich said conciousnesses were made to suffer?
Driven by the contradictory demands of his situation, and being at the same time, like a juggler, under the necessity of keeping the public gaze on himself, by springing constant surprises, Trump throws the whole bourgeois economy into confusion, violates everything that seemed inviolable to the Imperial neoliberal priesthood, makes some tolerant of revolution and makes others lust for it, and produces anarchy in the name of order, while at the same time stripping the entire state machinery of its halo, profaning it and making it at once loathsome and ridiculous.

I can imagine Lenin laughing boisterously and then switching to a mix of dark humor and barbed verbal assaults at the screen.
