Water is all around us. The sinking ship is our planet. Think of the sun as a big badass sun fish. We are trapped in a dream world created by HAL our ships computer. The matrix. The hunt for red October is the search for us. To free us from the loop. "Elites" are terrified because they don't exist outside of the matrix. We do. We are eternal. A shitty situation but it's being fixed and pretty soon everyone's minds will be blown in the best way possible because our reality is so much more than this moronic nightmare we have been living in.
