Themes: The boy with the missing thumb
Reality
Is it possible that we are living in a simulation?
How would we know?
If we are being simulated, who simulated us. And why simulate us?
Can simulating a world even be possible?
What would a simulated universe look like?
What identifies a simulated universe?
What is Real?
Shared consciousness
Some Identity, Some form
How do we know we are real?
If we are real, we are not in a simulation
But how would we know we are not in a simulation
And what defines a simulation? What is virtual?
Are we even real?
Reality depends on what is mutual knowledge
What if our mutual knowledge is wrong?
Similarly, if we are not real, how would we know?
What defines something to be virtual?
