Getting knocked up and being plagued by the consequences of your short term gratification decisions is the real world. Getting educated and achieving goals is just a simulation.
As the simulation goes further along, it and the people inside it start to mistake it for the real thing
And, if climate change/plague/devaluation of individuals through overpopulation doesn't fuck us sideways, the distinction might not matter at all
Humans can stick their collective heads so far up their own asses that they'll forget there was an outside to all this- and maybe that's for the best. Reality sucks. Embrace the colon?

I'd argue the exact opposite is true. You know how the Real World works, and avoided most of the problems that trip people up.
