What the fuck am I supposed to make of the simulation argument?

nothing, the simulation is doing the work for you.

I don't know, I think it's dumb. To me it seems like oddly wishful thinking. In a world dominated by materialism and secularism, I think that the simulation argument has the same appeal as traditional notions of the immaterial soul.

But I don't know, maybe someone 200 years from know will have a screenshot of this and think I'm a dumbass for thinking otherwise.

Do you have ANY reasonable suspicion that this life is not real? No? Then fucking move on with your life.
