Reality to me might be a simulation of my brain, it's definitely extremely the worst, evil and doesn't work out for the best, it's humiliating the hell out of me, getting unwanted attention from mental health doctors and life gets worse as I get older, and people rub salt in the wound, out of the frying pan into the fire, that's reality.
It is scientifically possible to be living in a simulation... either a big one we all share or just one that's in your brain and everyone else is just an extension of that. I read somewhere in a book that the latter is falsifiable because you thought that and I thought that and I'm of certainty that I exist and you're of certainty that you do. Of course, there's no way for me to know you're real and not a figment of MY imagination, but I feel it would take a sense of deep denial to reject the idea that everyone else is, in fact, real.
Hence, we only have two lenses of reality left: either a collective simulation or a 'real' physical reality. Either way, both cases have to be governed by rules in order to exist. Having set rules to reality means that there is truth. There is truth in numbers, for example. There is also truth in Physics. And there is probably truth in the infrastructure of the universe that we simply cannot prove.
If you still feel existentially overwhelmed, try some Albert Camus and absurdist theory. It might make it worse or better for you depending on how you take it.
Sounds great but I found the truth, I'm a good honest Christian, I no longer believe we're in a simulation, or one of my brain, it's not a simulation, I believe reality's subjective but it's also objective, I believe you're the way you consistently view yourself, not the way you don't, I believe in no contradictions, not even being a not and an is at the same time, you're not, you either are something or you're not, you can't be both.
I believe in absolute good, that I'm morally perfect (it's a Christian thing), and TULIP ( which stands for total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace, and the perseverance of the saints, it's a Puritan thing). 🙂
That's great! I would've brought up the religious viewpoint into this (as it is the viewpoint I believe in) but I thought you might be an atheist so I tried to discuss ideas outside of religion and God. I'm glad you found your way!
since objective reality's in your mind you can believe in any sham you want
