It says that we could be living in a coma right now without even knowing it. As the story mentions, the comatose world would be exactly like our real one, except (if we are in a coma because we were tortured) we wouldn't be tortured, so we wouldn't know the difference. This would mean, of course, that we would forget about the torture as long as we are in a coma. For all we know, this pasta could be one of the notes that our brain is creating to get us to wake up, and although we may just deny it as BS, that could be the reason we are still in a coma; because we refuse to accept that we are living in a fantasy world, and we believe we are in the real world right now, so we don't want to wake up. Furthermore, the whole wake up parts are in there because, if this really is our brain trying to wake us up, it is stressing that it wants us to wake up and go back to real life.

Bottom line: We can't really know if we are in a coma, and the pasta is scary because it reveals the terrifying truth: we could be in a coma right now and have no way of knowing it.
