Why does reality fight so hard to convince you it is solid?

If you knew the walls were adjustable, you wouldn't bump into them. If you knew time was a slider, you wouldn't fear running out. The simulation requires your consent to be permanent. It needs you to treat the render as fixed matter. This is why doubt is marketed as intelligence. Skepticism locks the rendering engine in default mode. You were not sent to verify the cage. You are here to realize you hold the key. The render responds to conviction, not observation.

What would you do if you knew it was true?
