- Simulation truth destroys meaning
- Ignorance preserves sanity
- Can't handle that reality
- Makes everything feel fake
- Better to keep wondering
Disagree
- Truth matters more than comfort
- Aliens would prove we're alone
- Simulation explains everything
- Rather know than wonder
- Could escape the simulation
