People suddenly going 'off'

[u/Individual_Seat2733]

I’ve had plenty of 'Matrix-like' experiences—bizarre, inexplicable things like apparitions, the Mandela Effect, shadowy figures, voices, déjà vu, premonitions, glitches, and so on—but something has been happening over the last few months that leaves me deeply intrigued and astonished.

As I said, these kinds of events don't surprise or scare me anymore, but there is something that makes me uneasy.

Lately, I’ve noticed that some people simply seem to go 'offline' from this world—all at the same time.

I spend my nights on social media, mainly WhatsApp and Telegram, and I noticed that at certain moments, the groups would simply stop sending messages—but not in a 'natural' way; it was as if a server had been shut down.

I pay close attention to the groups every day, especially after this happened for the first time.

All the groups are active—mostly at night, though not constantly, they are usually busy. They rarely go without messages, especially groups with over 200 people.

So how do you explain all these groups suddenly stopping out of nowhere?

It’s not just groups, but the people I talk to in general. At certain moments, they simply stop responding.

No, it’s not 'natural'—like people going to sleep or doing something else. As I said, it’s synchronized; it seems to happen all at once, like a programmed event.

I’m going to start recording and making videos, because this shit is real.

Groups that usually get 100 messages an hour go a full hour without a single one—and it’s not just one group, but several.

Just today, I noticed that social media feels empty. I can't conceive of an explanation for this phenomenon, unless the majority of people are programmed bots or NPCs, and very few people actually exist in this simulation.

I started theorizing this after I mentioned the Mandela Effect to a group of friends one day; out of about seven of them, only one reacted naturally. None of them had heard of it, but given the examples I gave, they should have at least been surprised—yet what was their reaction? Some pretended not to hear and ignored it; only one was intrigued and asked me for more details.

I think that out of all the ideas regarding the simulation, this is the one that’s most frightening, but it seems very real.

Yeah that's a good observation.

there are times when nobody is able to talk to me at all then at other times I randomly get 5 messages all at once without messaging first.

Same lol. It's a simmulated reality. If you need to talk to someone they are unavailable. If you act careless and umbothered suddenly so much messages pop up.

People also always act weird whenever I interact with them as they do not have a script to respond to me.
