    to inform you on how the world use to be like back when I was your age. There were both good and bad things going on, often or not they were bad.

    history of humans, we have asked questions of how we got here or where did we come from. But what if all we knew was a lie. A very popular theory to answer these questions is the simulation theory, which is similar to the Brain-in-Vat theory. The simulation theory argues that all of life is a computer simulation, which would mean the keyboard I’m typing on is fake, my parents fake, your children fake.
