It's, it's an operating system, not a belief system.

Umberto Eco's Travels in Hyperreality is worth checking out.

Okay, one of the points made in that video I referenced is he said that the concept of hyperreality existed, and it's been widely discussed, the problem of those who are aware of it, because it's like, well, what is this information? What does it mean? You know, everybody's living in a Truman Show.

It's an internalized simulation.
