Are We Living In A Simulation?

Here's the point of view of one of my favourite scientists, Sabine Hossenfelder ...

Stay in the cave, no one will try to force you out.

But why the effort to interfere with others leaving?

simulation

noun

sim·u·la·tion ˌsim-yə-ˈlā-shən 

 

 

Synonyms of simulation

 

 

1

: the act or process of simulating

 

2

: a sham object : counterfeit

 

 

 

simulate

verb

sim·u·late ˈsim-yə-ˌlāt 

 

 

simulated; simulating

Synonyms of simulate

 

transitive verb

1

: to give or assume the appearance or effect of often with the intent to deceive : imitate

 

2

: to make a simulation of (something, such as a physical system)

 

 

simulacrum

noun

sim·u·la·crum ˌsim-yə-ˈla-krəm 

-ˈlā-

 

plural simulacra ˌsim-yə-ˈla-krə 

-ˈlā-

also simulacrums

1

: image, representation

a reasonable simulacrum of reality—

Martin Mayer

 

 

2

: an insubstantial form or semblance of something : trace

 

"There is a similarity between simulacrum and simulate. Both words come from simulare, a Latin verb meaning "to copy, represent, or feign." Simulacrum is the name for an image or representation, and simulate means "to look, feel, or behave like something."

This world is bound to mathematics, but mathematics is pragmatism. Therefore; not absolute, therefore; not real Truth but make-believe truth. In Truth the only number that means anything is ONE.

Do we live in a simulation? I dunno, but there is evidence to support the idea that we do. The Mandela Effect, the double slit experiment, quantum entanglement, déjà vu, and simulation glitches are just some examples. Living thru the progression of video games, from "Pong" to the simulation games that we have today that we are unable distinguish from reality, it's hard to not see the possibility that we do live in a programmable simulation. 

 

 

You can even find "glitches" in today's sports. Is the NFL nothing more than an elaborate EA Madden video game simulation?

Do we live in a simulation, where honor is what we pay for a memory?

Glitch in the matrix ?

 

When I lived in Manchester there was one particular place on a certain street that something strange would happen.

 

I would walk down the street (I always walked quickly back then). - I would walk down the street, pass by some people in front of me, so they were then *behind* me. - Then suddenly they were back *in front* of me.

 

This happened a couple dozen times over the years. - Always in exact place on same street.

“Infinite Love is the Only Truth” - David Icke.

 

 

Infinite Love is the Only Truth ??

 

I bet David still locks his doors at night.

[Origin]

It is not the ultimate truth. Grasping the construct as a whole and being aware of the designers is then inevitable. It is everywhere present. Love is a construct that exclusively applies to human beings.

As much as I regard David Icke as one of the best five-sense conspiracy researchers out there, his far-out metaphysical views -- which in recent years have regrettably become more prominent -- doubtless has caused more than a few potential Ickettes to turn back to normieland, which is most unfortunate. One wonders if Icke would 'save more souls' as it were, in the here-and-now, where it counts the most (objectively speaking), than constantly venturing off into baseless, temporally impractical, territory. Perhaps if remaining more grounded to the earthplane would he lessen the chance of alienating a lot of the more rationally minded readers just discovering his bibliography.

 

David Icke likens the human being to a 'biological computer,' inhabiting a VR-like simulation, in which my beloved Akashic Records are even referred to as a database, and the laws of physics are akin to a computer code -- all very cold and technical language, if not soulless bot-speak. If one didn't know any better, you'd almost think DI's brain was connected to AI.

 

Although Icke likes to stress the point how he's been speaking about this supposed illusory world of ours for over two decades, prior to this public figure and that published person entering the scene to upstage him, it nevertheless is an occult concept that's nothing new to modern 'science,' however much the language in using to describe the hypothesis has changed. Does this make it true, however, and truly scientific? Not anymore than a respected and credentialed priest of scientism who states matter-of-factly of the Big Bang, the missing link, and of 'dark matter' being so.

 

Spaced-out psychonauts and delusional psychotics who come back to reality to tell of nothing is real aside, I suppose it looks good if you can find a few scientists to help lend weight to your theory, as might an Apollo 11 dupe, or an atheist.

 

So Icke cites/quotes a few scientists in chapter 7 of The Reveal, so as to try and make a credible case for the Simulation Gospel. Most surprisingly, one of these being Nick Bostrom, probably most known for his 2003 journal article, "Are You Living in a Computer Simulation?" (No, a cave, stupid.) Naturally, I questioned what Icke was doing in trying to make a scientific case for this theory by citing a man also known for having co-founded a transhumanist association! 

 

A few paragraphs later in chapter 7 of The Reveal, the author of a book titled "Our Mathematical Universe" is quoted from, which does little to impress those readers familiar with how theoretical mathematics has been in large part used over the past five centuries as an arcane craft to invent and make 'concrete' any number of philosophic -- or pseudoscientific -- theories, as it suits largely Masonic/Luciferian scientism to do, in the process fooling many a gullible layperson who thinks all the highfalutin terminology is over their heads so it must be smart and true.

 

Then only a paragraph or two later does Icke then cite a computer scientist who works for the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, as if anyone involved with NASA makes for a strong and reliable source. JPL? You mean that outfit that occultist Jack Parsons co-founded, and who Werner von Braun credited with launching the 'space' program?

 

Transhumanists. Theoretical mathematicians. NASA. Surely one can find better 'voices of authority' within usually Icke belittling 'mainstream science' in support of the simulation hypothesis; a belief system for some, which has it roots more in esotericism than actual, hard true science.

 

As for quantum this and quantum that, a favorite pet word among those who promote the simulation model, it brings to mind a book I'm currently reading, by Chris Ferrie, titled "Quantum Bullsh*t."
