The Simulation Theory is a legitimate conspiracy theory. Whenever someone asks me or has me explain what the simulation theory is, usually I get jokes or comments like that's so stupid. Or there's no way that's true.

 

What the Simulation Theory says is that we are living in a real life simulation, a real life "Sims" game.  We are basically an experiment/game for someone great than what we know of. The experimenters run billions of "simulations" of our human lives.

​

A major predictor that this could be true is technology. With technology advancing we are coming up with inventions were we can plug a "chip" into a computer that connects to our senses. On that "chip" we can see all of our thoughts, emotions, dreams, feelings, etc. Based off of that we are able to control and program individuals and run simulations based off of those thoughts, emotions, dreams, and feelings. 

​

The theory is that we are actually way ahead of what we think we are. We are already in that simulation. 

​

From what I personally believe in, and throughout other research, I like to relate this the parallel universe and deja vu. You know those times in life were something happens and you think to your. Where am I? Or I swear this has happened before? This is because of deja vu and the parallel universe. Deja vu and the parallel universe points towards there is other life forms of you out there that we don't know about, or that situation were you had that feeling, that's because you already had that happen in another simulation. Scientists are looking to prove this through quantum physics. 

 

“Moderator Neil deGrasse Tyson, director of the museum’s Hayden Planetarium, put the odds at 50-50 that our entire existence is a program on someone else’s hard drive. ‘I think the likelihood may be very high,’ he said. He noted the gap between human and chimpanzee intelligence, despite the fact that we share more than 98 percent of our DNA. Somewhere out there could be a being whose intelligence is that much greater than our own. ‘We would be drooling, blithering idiots in their presence,’ he said. ‘If that’s the case, it is easy for me to imagine that everything in our lives is just a creation of some other entity for their entertainment’” (Moskowitz).
