Oh yeah I wasn’t really confused, I just meant to make the point that simulation theory != Matrix. Matrix is A simulation, but simulation theory doesn’t necessitate that we all have real bodies in a “real world”. In fact, I think the matrix version of the simulation is less likely, as it would be more complex to achieve, at least in our reality. In simulation theory, if the simulation stops and is deleted, there may well be literally nothing left of us. That’s not a trans allegory, that’s an existential crisis
I know that The Matrix is a trans allegory but simulation theory isn’t necessarily the same as being imprisoned in a simulation. It means we might not exist at all. Simulation goes away, we go away. Or maybe it’s like The Matrix and we’re all trans eggs. There’s no way to know which version it is or how many people are real vs simulated.
Huh?
We live in The Matrix. The Matrix is a trans allegory.
Simulation theory doesn’t equal The Matrix.
I was just explaining what they were saying because you expressed confusion.

So you feined confusion in order to set someone else up to make you look smarter than they are.
Interesting choice. Much to analyze there.
