If computationalism is true then platonism must also be true. Because if you were in a "simulation" and you have managed to get out of it, how can you know you have reach the bottom level of reality (ie: the material world then) ? How can you know the new real world you are now in is the real world and not another simulation ? It is the turtle on the turtle on the turtle... Even if you take "standard computational thesis", then by the reasoning upper you must reject a bottom level real... ie: a material world, a stuffy world... every reality is stuffy and real (from the inside).
