What if you are your own descendant trapped in a holographic psychosis of another life?

What if you are some kid 400 years into the future plugged into a holographic memory simulation of your ancestors and you've slipped into psychosis thinking it is real?

This tech, downloading memories and reliving them virtually, is years away but very possible given what we are already seeing- so what's to say you arent in one now but you've lost all grip on reality?

I keep trying to reboot via the DMT protocol, but those damned sysadmins keep telling me that I need to stay here and learn my lesson.

It would explain the "rendering" problem in quantum mechanics as well as entanglement

Your mom fed you pancakes this morning- the simulation seems to last years but is only a few hours your time due to how the subconscious mind processes time

Did you try to watch Total Recall and The Matrix at the same time?

If you arent aware of it then hologram is your reality. The other "real" reality is entirely irrelevant to your conscious existence.



The same applies with the theory of our universe being a "hologram" or "simulation" being run by some other higher life-form. That fact would be 100%, utterly irrelevant to our existence and sense of reality. Because the hologram or simulation IS our existence. It IS our reality.

I'd still think Kirk Cousins isn't elite.

Been playing some early Assassins Creed maybe? That's the exact current day set up of the first few games.

Damn. Now I want to go back and play some AC.

What if little green aliens land at my desk and finish my reports for this week?

I agree. But not in this scenario. In this scenario you wake up when you die, as a teenager - mid-morning surrounding by family and medical professionals trying to re-anchor you into true reality
