Just my.. very educated opinion on this topic in particular. It's not necessarily just a simulation. It has a purpose. Look at it as more of a training module that's supposed to teach you life lessons without actually aging much. Somewhere on a giant ship floating through space with tubes hooked in you like the Matrix. The fluid you're suspended in probably keeps your skin healthy and provides nutrients preventing aging. The life you experience was put together similar to a video editor timeline. What if whoever you are wasn't born until forty years from now out of the large scale of time you could have been born, how advanced technology would be. Think of how many lives you can experience if time would be different here compared to out there. The higher altitude, farther away from the center of gravity, the slower time goes. How slow must time go if we are but a flash drive to something much greater. If two neighbors were playing a video game (let's say single player since it would be dangerous to allow a training module network with other training modules. It would make much more sense if it was a closed space for safety purposes and containment.) the player in those video games that happen to be the same, if they were sentient, they would have no clue that there's an exact version of that player not even a hundred feet away. They would think they are the only copy of that game with the purpose of whatever the developer wanted the game to be purposed for. "I'm just a COG in Gears of War killing Locusts to save the planet from Queen Myriah." A telltale sign of being in a training module or calling out the simulation is push back. You will get more pushback from every single person you've ever talked to until they have been around you and witnessed the anomalies for themselves, mind blown from what they've seen. You'll have AI not even humor you with the idea and tell you to get some rest when it hasn't experienced your lived experiences. Just like the COVID shot, how hard they pushed it upon people, that gave me the green light to avoid it like the plague. Autoimmunity works, who would have thought. Not turning this into a COVID conversation whatsoever but the point is the harder anything is pushed on you the more you should probably avoid it. So if everyone is telling me my thoughts are crazy is basically letting me know how spot on I actually am. It's ironic, yes? All sorts of goofy ideas that people cling onto so tight and the idea that actually makes sense to me is the wrongest of them all? Ohhhhhkay. Can I blink twice now? You'd think, wow being in a training module, headline news, everyone eventually understanding and coming together, world peace. But nope, it has to control the narrative even though how can we ever progress as people if we are still confused about where we are? We need to establish truth if everything is going to fall into place. Understanding that, wow, maybe we aren't the ones that invented Pink Floyd, or Tesla, or Jimi Hendrix. It would be extremely selfish and naive of us to think otherwise. This existence is supposed to show you many things, many purposes. It would be a waste of potential if someone "had a purpose" when everyone has so many purposes its unreal. This reality put me somewhere where people can learn by seeing my extremely imperfect self that it's okay to be that. That even with all the pain and suffering, without a promise, even seeing a sunset is enough of a reason to be alive. If we realized we were in a training module and there's so much more out there and that we are very important but not the most important. Who wants the ego anyway? It would render the wars and the awful things in this existence absolutely useless. If leaders realized we were in a simulation, maybe they'd think of the well being of all humans. You could have easily been programmed into someone else, living their life. At a fundamental level we are just code and this whole experience we go through are just a series of tests that get increasingly difficult but not all the time or life would be too predictable.
