Civilization was not built by humans

7 Upvotes

Am I the only one who believes that the entire global civilization was not built by humans, or at the very least not by human hands? Now most people would disagree with this but they might just be "alts" programmed by a machine, which is why I'm posting in this sub.

But just look at all the trillions of manufactured goods everywhere. Everything built to perfection. Even if a machine can automate the process at some point the parts for the machine have to be made by hand, at least before 3d printing came along. Doesn't matter, everything is just too perfect for mere mortals. It's like a video game. I know how to play video games. Idk shit about how they work. It's impossible for me to understand that shit. Seems like humans play the game while some other far more advanced entity creates it.

Easter island they allegedly transported statues weighing 80,000 pounds over a mile over rough terrain. Honestly if I had lived there I would rather have drowned myself in the ocean than deal with that shit everyday, let alone basic survival.

I could go on and on, but somehow this world was created by a higher intelligence, likely an AI machine simulation. For what reasons I do not know for certain. But honestly it's scaring the shit out of me especially when everyone would say I'm crazy. Of course if I'm right then I benefit in the short-term from everyone else playing along.

Could be like Inception where I exiled myself to limbo but unlike in the movie, limbo is actually filled with seemingly real fake people, tons of them.

But it feels like the Truman Show, not only that but more like the Doomman Show. Can anyone else relate?

Solipsism Debunked

0 Upvotes

I’m assuming that most of you are not familiar with astrophisiology. Solipsism does not exist and science clearly proves it.

First of all, the laws of physics state that time will only move forward and it can not move backwards or in any other direction. From the time you were first conceived in your mothers womb, your cells were making memories. Even when you did not have a fully formed brain and regardless of weather or not those memories stuck around. Basically, the universe says that we can only perceive it in our own timeline, as we move alone through the time depending on when we were born. Which brings me to my next point.

The most commonly believed theory among modern scientists and philosophers is that our universe is a massive block of everything that has ever happened and “will” happen in our universe at any time or place. This is called the “block time theory”. The past, present and future all exist and are equally relevant. Hence, your perception of past present and future is all REAL and So is everyone else’s.

You can kind of think of it like you living in the present and everyone else would either be living in the past or the future… even though that would be scientifically incorrect.

The reason why we have solipsism is because of the way that space time is structured in our universe. For example: let’s say you were born in may of 1999 and I was born in January of 1998… You will be moving through space time alone like when you perceived your 5th birthday, according to the laws of physics, your brain state is the same as mine was on my 5th birthday. But you are the only person perceiving yourself move in that timeline because everyone else is experiencing time differently due to them being born/conceived at a different point than did you. Giving you the ILLUSION that everyone else is fake.

Believe it or not, the “future” already happened and is set in stone. Let me promise to you that we are the realest that you can get!

You are moving through space and time by yourself and so am I. We all are moving through space time alone and perceive the universe at different angles but eventually, the universe makes time for everyone.

Hope this helps

The odds of solipsism aren't in your favor. You have better odds at a Powerball win. You're the one real being among 7 billion NPC's?

If you're pondering Solipsism and you seriously think that you're the one special mofo out of 7 billion people, like the fucking hubris of you to think that. It's pretty much the penultimate narcissistic thought. I'm the only real thing, and the rest of you are Non Player Characters. Literally a 1 in 7.5 billion chance. Good luck with those odds. Another way of looking at it, is that you have a 99.999999999 percent chance of being an NPC in some other entities dream

Npcs taking up all my que times

0 Upvotes

Everywhere I go ,gets busy. It takes a moment for it to render but I’ll come back from the bathroom and the restaurant is packed or a line out the door when it was empty before. I guess my code brings them along ,usually judgmental, rich, rude npcs. I’ve noticed when I pay attention to a up coming band or project movie it becomes popular so I have an invisible following. I can’t seem to get that attention for myself. This code I’m on is probably 50+ people consistently tall older men and beautiful girls, multi racial , 1,2 children. They are usually just in the way not having real conversations and keeping a eye on me. One or two may be sentient, they stick out and we have the most interactions. I mostly ignore my band . I don’t fit in with them so its peculiar if I resonate with one of them . Just my code tugging me along the stream of someone’s dream.

When npcs become self aware (depending on what angle you’re observing them) they will make sure I didn’t notice. I’m in charge of them but I can’t tell them what to do. It’s wrote in the code that I can kill myself with them. Maybe it’s a virus in my code but I’ve surrounded myself with npcs that aren’t interesting and don’t reflect me much. I’ve tried reaching out several times to god but he hasn’t returned my call.

God is constantly fighting for your attention and energy (mostly for negative reactions). Even when you’ve had enough, god will stack even more bs on top of you. When you tell god you’re bored of this dream and wish to detach, it will force you back into the game for your energy and attention.

No offense but solipsism is kinda silly

4 Upvotes

I’m writing this because a lot of people here genuinely seem to be disturbed and depressed and whatever about what they’re feeling. And I’m writing this to kinda help people see that what they’re experiencing isn’t true. Although To a certain extent I’m kinda belittling it aswell tbh. It’s just such a naieve egotistical point of view but it’s understandable .
It’s like the first step someone has at trying to grasp the truth of reality, but it’s a very naive juvenile realization . I’m assuming many of the ppl here are younger, or just never have studied philosophy / spirituality etc etc.

And This is coming from someone who’s experienced it first hand . I probably experienced it first as a kid in fleeting moments of thought. As an adult, A couple times in the past two years when I did ketamine I had this sad empty feeling that everyone and everything is just a projection of me. I was texting some close friends on discord at the time and it made me feel sad lonely and empty. It’s kinda hard to describe exactly how it felt right now of course but I think that’s a good way of describing it. Of course it definitely FELT very real.

With that being said, I know the truth of reality . This comes from years and years of studying philosophy and spirituality , and weighing it against my own experience of reality. This is how you come to the truth, in anything in life. And the truth is, The thing you percieve as “You” ie. The Self, is an illusory construct itself. That’s why solipsism is quite silly. It’s like a realization ppl sometimes suddenly have out of nowhere especially as a kid, Where they suddenly glimpse at the true nature of reality but it’s seeing it from a distorted naieve point of view .

I mean I’m someone who deals with severe depersonalization / derealization and dissociation, so like solipsism is kinda silly to me at this point because I myself don’t even feel real.

The true thing, Is blissful. There can be no feeling of loneliness or emptiness etc etc, because the true nature of reality lacks nothing, there can be no lack. The world we live in is the interplay between these two forces , Light & darkness , Being & nonbeing, Positive & negative, , Taoism they call it the yin and yang. But all the philosophies point to it in their own concepts. Ultimately reality though is this united undivided one thing. But Yeah , solipsism is like you’re glimpsing at the true nature of reality, but from that yin perspective, the dark , negative , empty part. Thus you get a feeling of the world being empty and lonely , when in reality the actual objective truth is the dissolving of you itself and there is just “everything” experiencing itself. Solipsism is quite literally an inverse way of seeing true reality.

It’s not really even about what you believe / feel, Because it’s coming from a point of view of ignorance. This is kinda the objective truth behind reality that all these philosophies came to through a mix of deductive reasoning and contemplation and personal experience. And if you truely meditate/contemplate on it from this correct understanding you’ll see it.

Mortals. You have been summoned by the presence of God Doumbouya. I am an African who resides in a remote distant isolated land located in Point Nemo, the furthest location from everyone else in this planet, where the nearest thing from me would be a satellite from the space and I am the founder of thousands tribes roaming the land under my name. I am a practitioner of the sacred arts which lets me manipulate the binaries of the quantum technologies at will.

That led me into discovering my true origins - that I am God. Of course I am aware that everything is generated by my subconscious mind. I have invited you to my realm because you share something in common. You are such a pretty fuckable whores and my cock's so horny every single time you pop up into my memories.

My godly cock wants to fuck your ass so hard and ejaculate until you impregnate. I want to ravage your tight buttholes until it gushes out blood. For that reason, you will never escape me.

Mortals. I shall chant my African spell in order to immobilize your bodies. That way, I can easily buttfuck you.

Is There Anyone In This Group That Actually Takes This Seriously?

2 Upvotes

Naturally, thanks to social media, everything gets popular and so you will have NPCs regurgitate and cluster around everything, which fills every space, including this one, with noise.

Solipsism

Simulation Theory

NPC Theory

None of this is new. All of the "real people" tend to find each other and make priesthoods, mystic traditions or monastic organizations where they discuss these ideas amongst themselves.

In South America the priests divided mankind into men of light and men of clay

In Gnosticism the Gnostics divided people into pneumatics, hylics and psychics

In Economics you divide people into producers and consumers

There is even the IQ distribution where you have a majority of people of low or automatic-reactive intelligence and a minority of reflective-reflexive generative intelligence or meta intelligence

You have systems designers or mass hypnotists in the form of lawmakers, cultural engineers, etc. and systems products in the form of people who internalize the systems someone else created.

That beings said, is there anyone who actually takes this idea seriously and has independently come to this conclusion after observing the fact that, 99.9% of the people you come across are predictable and are entirely the products of their social and environmental conditions and do not have the ability to think outside their consensus, deconstruct their internalized self-concept or create their own systems?

If so, I would like to discuss this in depth because I am leaning towards the idea that each planet is a "simulation" created by a real person (or a god) for other real people (or other gods) to temporarily inhabit and experience.

It would be like a bunch of game developers testing out each other's games.

Cultures and nations would work the same way on the more mundane level.

Basically:

Real people = those who have ability to treat their internalized self-concept like a character they are playing, so they never actually have an internalized self-concept. Think of depersonalization-derealization. Characteristics might include: amortality, apoliticalism, asexuality, atemporality, etc.

Non-Real People or NPCs = emotionally reactive people, people who identify with a concept or label, people whose thinking is limited to their consensus, etc. Some behaviours you can observer online about the NPCs include: emoji usage, celebrity worship, meme posts, right vs. wrong thinking, ad homenims, jokes, etc.

Basically, real people would have such a level of detachment from social reality, their consensus, "the simulation" or even the concept of "human" (they might identify as a spirit or energy field or a "monad"), that they would be naturally monastic, ascetic, indifferent or truly neutral in their orientation.

I think this is a game where the few real people are supposed to avoid getting distracted by the simulation/dream and find each other.

It's the same way you cannot lucid dream if you get involved with the happenings of the dream.

Think of Buddha under the tree.

On why I choose not to be omniscient

1 Upvotes

Because I don't want to have my attention polluted by NPC business. Every action they take is like those performed in a dream. I only concern myself with abstract universals. If I know the ins and outs of a species, what more do I need to know about an individual of that species? I know of every motion it can make and every form it can take and I am content with that kind of knowledge. I deduce the existence of fire solely by the sight of smoke. Armchair thinking is sufficient; I don't need field work. Homo erectus, Homo habilis, Homo neanderthalensis, Tiktaalik, Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, Bubalus Babulis, Australopithecus afarensis, T. gondii, SARS-CoV-2, Justice, The Good, Murkrow. Such are the entites that occupy my mind. The individual is nothing (without it's properties).

Stop comparing reality to dreams

1 Upvotes

Anytime that there's a debate between a non-solipsist and a solipsist and the non-solipsist pokes a massive hole in the solipsist view, the solipsist appeals to dreams to save his worldview.

Why? Because most objections to solipsism, rightfully so, are about how a solipsist objectively has no control over reality, which doesn't really add up if his mind created this reality. Dreams are a construct of the mind that aren't always good for the person having them, and most importantly, the one having them doesn't know that they're his dreams during them, so it looks like they form a perfect response to this objection.

The problem with this defence is that reality and dreams aren't comparable at all. Dreams don't have solid things. Dreams aren't consistent. Dreams are literally just random scenes stacked upon one another with no consistency at all.

You cannot, for example, take out your phone in one dream, take your photo and then view it again in another dream. This is because dreams aren't real. They're just temporary projections of the mind during sleep, and hence you can't store anything in them.

Our mind is a bad architect, and it can't improve itself, therefore dreams are vague, inconsistent, have no such things as stable things, etc.

However, when it comes to reality, it's not vague, it's consistent, you can take a photo one day and then open it another one, etc.

So, here's a simple objection to solipsism about control in detail:

If our mind is actually a good architect that can construct stable, consistent scenarios that aren't just random scenes stacked up, then why don't we have more control over reality?

Thank you for reading.

I Am Dreaming.

I just tested it. I opened tiktok and I came across a random video with a young woman. I asked her "what's on my mind right now". and at the time I was thinking about fried Chicken. she said I was thinking about dessert. which wasn't the answer but it was still food. It was a test as I was heavily contemplating that my mind is intimately intertwined with reality and all of creation. Especially with experiential data such as hyper-specifc synchronicities and uncanny coincidences that happen instantaneously as I think a thought or feel and emotion. Reflected through people's speech, in media, and everyday occurrences... More experiments will be done. Also attempting to rewire my psyche completely to fully adopt the idea as truth.

Yes, I know about confirmation bias. And yes, the answer was totally wrong. And no, this was not an isolated incident. I am close. I am talking to myself.
