I haven´t had any motivation to make a simulation theory thread on this forum yet and since I got inspired by answering a question from @madbananas I thought I might as well make a stand alone thread for it since all the work is already done.
Despite having watched all these videos and read all the articles I am not fully convinced we live in a simulation but it´s a strong posibility but it´s either that or existential nihilism for me. One thing I want to note is that how ridiculous the theory of the big bang is from an existential view point to me it´s just as stupid as believing in god because they just say the same as in the bible that first there was nothing and then god created earth or boom the big bang happened out of nothingness BUT if you think about creationism with the view of the simulation theory the big bang makes perfect since it´s like a video game like you are booting up Sims or GTA or any game then there literally are nothing and you turn on the game and the big bang was created.
To blow your mind even more if you take GTA IV for example you don´t start from the beginning you start by getting off a boat in modern times not from when the Earth was "created" it´s like a dream or a movie you just start in the middle like the Matrix the movie starts by Neo waking up turning off his alarm you didn´t see him go to sleep just like a dream you are suddenly just there like they also explain in the movie Inception that you never remember how you got where you are. Btw I love history I find it very fascinating but who says it ever existed maybe the game of life started when we were born and history is just filler and the only reality I can be certain of is that my mind is real maybe no one else is or maybe everyone is a simulation so the creators can to learn about human history which they also mention in one of the videos and if that theory is true than my theory of the big bang was when the creators pressed start on the simulation.
The first two are pretty short and more entertaining while some of the others a longer, one even a documentary with several experiements that kinda proofs we live in a simulation.
Number 6 may seem childish but of all the videos I have seen about the observer effect/double slit experiement this one explains it and shows it the best way.
Life could also be a videogame like Roy in Rick and Morty
Or maybe it´s like in the picture below that your life was just a trip
This one is the longest lasting 50 minutes but explains in great details of evidence of the simulation hypethesis

Why do you believe this world is a simulated reality?
Answer (1 of 432): Nice question. We live in a kind of simulation, an illusion of our senses in our apparently material dimension (Earth and Universe). I try to keep it short and very direct. Just to inform you. First you have to understand Who you are. You are an energetic being, a pure posi...
