Interesting.
Simulation Theory has come to the same paradox. It’s a mathematically proven theory that space-time very likely doesn’t exist. So then what DOES fundamentally exist?
Awareness.
And the impressions we receive of space-time upon our awareness are therefore a mysterious “simulation” of space and time.
So our existence is (and from first principles SEEMS) real, but the external & even internal impressions we perceive as our existence, do not in fact exist.
