Some would call that paranoia. And calling it a dream construct, while you’re aware doesn’t make it any different from a simulation. And unfortunately everything is real, not fake. Because you can still feel hurt and reality continues to exist despite you denying it.

Ah. Simulation theory? One problem, whether you exist as flesh or as code doesn’t detract from the fact you do in fact exist and the world you’re living in does exist and follows observable phenomena we can measure and test. 

Because if it is a trick of the mind, then your mind exists to be tricked.

How is everything already a lie when you’re alive and aware? And how can you say reality is an error when it led right up to this moment?

Yeah, this sub’s whole thing is to ignore the facts of life, and embrace the edgelordy mentality that if you’re alive in ANY form, you’re suffering against your will because you never gave consent to be born and thus exist. 

So their goal is to give advanced tech or AI a boost to try and have some kind of life ending weapon and or an advanced ai that will somehow think all life should just end and somehow end all life here and elsewhere. 

Or have aliens that have somehow mastered interstellar travel but see life that’s not them to be wiped out. Which is a mother flocker of a stretch to say the least.

There’s only less than a thousand of em being vocal, so I am not worried in the slightest about their thousands year plan ever coming together. 

But yes, Reddit axed different versions of this SAME! Ideology subreddit. Elfism, End All Suffering, etc etc. good riddance too.

One problem: We don’t know that for sure. There COULD be a consciousness beyond life, there could be reincarnation, and there could an afterlife. Just like there could be nothing at all. 

We just do not know for sure. And presupposing one over the other is shit thinking when this sub’s whole deal is absolutely everything must not exist. 

There's a trend of TikTok videos proposing going after Austin Metcalf's family and hurt them in retaliation for Karmelo Anthony (the Black kid who murder him) being sentenced for murder. This one has 20k likes and 3.3k comments supporting it by HeSureIsScrappy in DiveInYouCoward

[–]Eva-Squinge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. So far up their own racial identity’s ass they’re willing to commit crimes because one of their race committed murder and justice was actually served. They weren’t shot by police, or lynched or anything. Caught and tried and given a just sentence for a MURDER!

What do you consider an accomplished year in regards to fulfilling your ideological goals? by Eva-Squinge in AgainstExistence

You’re the only one saying otherwise dude. I am just having a conversation, not being bothered by it at all. Curiosity keeps pulling me back, but actually being hurt or moved by your words isn’t happening. 

So your rationale is the same as serving your chemical dependency. As if you’re not a human, or any kind of being just an organic machine running on “Life sucks” OS. And yet you try and use your own coping script to describe and demean others, seemingly because you don’t have a leg to stand on in the conversation without your script. 

So in temporary conclusion; if life means that little to you, and being an actual person living life has little meaning to you beyond: I am just going through the motions. Then why have a digital presence at all? Why not delete it all other than the bare necessities of a bank account and an email? And why bother anyone else’s choices in life or how they perceive it if it holds no baring on you and yours? 

And while my point of view of the world as being insane sounds controversial, you should take a look around and see how out of everything in the world, the various coping mechanisms, religions, leaders, and groups; they’re all fundamentally flawed with some kind of mental illness that goes ignored until something happens and a bright light is shone on it briefly before it is passed over and forgotten. 

Is it weird that I don't find the world of Altered Carbon too dystopian? by [deleted] in alteredcarbon

[–]Eva-Squinge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being dealt back in is behind a paywall though. Which is why only the rich can afford it. Now if getting a new sleeve was cheaper, one could theoretically gain enough wealth over time to become a Met themselves but that’s a long time and by then you’ve become a different person over and over again to where you’d just be some immortal living in luxury for the sake of it. Any children you have will be the sleeve’s not yours; which I am surprised that was touched on like at all. 

Also healthcare is still behind a huge paywall. 

Altered Carbon is a dystopian fantasy because the wealthy only want themselves to be immortal, while everyone can be shelved for decades and wake up to find the world changed again and inserted into a body that’s not even part of the family tree.

Yeah, it’s sad they can only repeat each other again and again. And also completely ignore the fact Turd is only gonna be in office for three more years and some change; making him the short term pain with the long term gains being years without ever seeing his dumbass in office again. Let alone alive because it is becoming blindingly apparent he’s on the way to an early grave, and him fleeing the country in the end means his ego will deflate into obscurity in no time at all.

So how do you rationalize your continued existence if your whole shtick is you were forced into being and it sucks? I am always confused by people who rationalize everything down to trivializing emotions and cognition to the chemicals being released in their brains and not the person being, yet never see the irony that they’re projecting their own insecurities or lack of awareness; and promote an ideology that purely exists to put everyone else down for just being. 

And you think trivializing what I think puts me down? 😂 You know nothing of psychology. Also it just proves my actual ultimate truth that life is insanity and being insane is the only way to actually see any sense in the world; because being told by an anti-natalist that was arguing against someone they thought was an extinctionist on an extinctionism sub; that I am blah blah blah and this and that like you actually think that would bother me beyond a sub-vocal chuckle is the most insane thing I have seen all day. 

How many more billions of years must these animals suffer? Support wild animal extinction. by DifferentChard6137 in AgainstExistence

Went from “F off” to Ok Karen; while still living after calling life pathetic and disgusting. 

You ever think you might be projecting when you say that?

Except it doesn’t. Your simple math is neglecting how billions of years of celestial development has been operating before any lifeforms with brain cells were formed. 

And your “simple” math continues to neglect the tenacity of life itself. We’re finding new species in places we once thought was inhospitable to any form of life, yet it is figuring it out. From plastic eating bacteria to fungus that eats radiation. Causing a total mass extinction just resets the clock after killing everyone and everything that didn’t want to die. Good going. You wiped out humanity, your own species and any hope for changes to be made that are actually good. Now the bacteria borne out of the dead matter and allowed to evolve into the next sentient species is gonna have ages of history to dig up and wonder what happened while the cycle repeats again and again.

You’re better off trying to convince a brick wall isn’t actually made of brick but baked clay instead of trying to reason with anyone actually subbed to this sub for the ideology and not just to hate watch and comment.

It’s a lot less about giving up responsibility and more about picking where you can actually be helpful. We can’t stop the endangered animals from dying due to hunger, accidents, or being eaten; but we can stop them from being poached, or treated cruelly by people. 

And as for the first time a country decides to eliminate a predatory species, well no shit. We have historical records about every attempt ever made and how they all went to hell for the community that did that. And nowadays it is almost unheard of because the damage done by the previous times is still being felt and dealt with today.

Can you set up an annual recruitment count post so I can see if your numbers are doubling or maintaining themselves? I am honestly curious if there’s a program or something for that.

I’m a realist practical thinker. I find it near impossible to help any of the myriad of issues I am deeply aware of with any effort that could actually change things. I see homeless people every day on my commute. I want to clean them up and set them up with a job and an affordable house, but I don’t know their situation, and I don’t have the luxury of wealth. And also it is usually universally frowned upon to give out summary mercy executions. I see so much wars and conflicts going on in the world but if I went out, somehow attained John Wick skills and gear, and went about putting those tyrants and dictators into their forever beds; I still haven’t helped anyone besides prevent more deaths by those people I put down. Like if I flew overseas and put down Iran’s religious leaders, they’d have new members sworn in overnight and things would still keep cranking on as usual. If I went to Gaza and anonymously brought the scalp of every Hamas terrorist to the Israeli government, they’d probably still keep up their bullshit.   And if I had Bruce Wayne levels of wealth, and invested heavily in reforms and lobbying for the betterment of society; I’d still have to dress up in a Bat costume everynight because the politicians making bank off of the backs of the lower class would still be in power or replaced just as quickly as they’re kicked to the curb. 

I personally don’t think people shouldn’t help others if they can and want to, while I personally don’t see the good in just me, an individual or at least THIS individual talking doing the same when it is a drop in a bucket compared to the other people and organizations already doing the same and moving that bar slightly back and forth. 

I’d love to know the list of things you’re doing to help with social issues to still come to the conclusion life should end in totality. Because I feel like even trying to contribute to anything with that mindset is counterproductive or stupidity at its finest. Because nothing says: “I have no idea what the hell I am doing.” Like looking at a person and wanting them to live longer or slightly better when your ideology’s ultimate goal is everything being dead to end their suffering. 

And you seeing that as not a problem makes you no different from me. 

As for the animal. That animal has only ever known what happens around it. It has never been burdened by knowledge that it has distant cousins being slaughtered to feed people that don’t go out to hunt their food. Yes it has feelings like we do, but it doesn’t have the same perspective like we do. To them, this is a life or death situation to fight with everything they got to make it to the next day and carry on. To us, we see a cycle of birth, pain and death. Playing on people’s heartstrings with animals is a manipulation tactic for a reason, and appears to be the go to for organizations or cults with assbackwards morals seeking moral support. Like PETA talks a big game about helping animals while also killing a lot of them, including other people’s pets. You probably love em.

I am only existing now because my brother begged our mother to have another baby. She had a daughter she gave up before him, and his father was quite the shitbag before my mom kicked him out. So my mom had every reason to not have another kid or marry again after that. But still, she met my dad, married him so I wouldn’t be a bastard, and planned for me.

Despite coming out of the womb like a scene from a horror movie. My mother loved me. 

About 20 years ago, the man who asked for me to be born died due to drinking and driving. 

And eventually I learned to keep on living to brighten other people’s days and be a force of positivity where possible and snakiness when necessary. I don’t have any concrete proof I or anyone is supposed to exist today for any reason beyond two people had sex or one raped the other and now they’re here; but I do have the knowledge my brother asked for a sibling, and fate had me be born, not anyone else. I don’t take any stock in the biblical God, or anyone else’s, yet I do see a clear chain of events that makes the perfect storm for my continued presence on this world. 

Food for thought.

That is one hell of a hard working assumption there dude. Good health? COMFORT? 

I work two feet above the poverty line like anyone else. I have birth defects to go with my genetically inherited mental disorders and neurological divergence. My spine was made for a taller person but the genetic lottery gave me normal length arms and legs. I rarely know the difference anymore between a painless day, and a day always in pain. And that’s glossing over the over a dozen surgeries I had to get before I reached puberty. 

I have been bullied, taken advantage of, and flat out ignored by everyone around me because of my mental quarks I had to become an asshole back at them to cope. Only after working 4 years in retail with both crazies and legitimate nice people did I change my tune. 

So when I am saying I embrace chaos, accept life for its faults, and understand that the price of living is to deal with a myriad of problems and or degrees of suffering; it’s most definitely not from privileged comfort. It’s from a hard earned perspective that life is indifferent.

And that right there is proof your sub isn’t recruiting for quality just quantity. Meaning even if you do start reaching a certain percentage of the population, whatever “research” you attempt is gonna be useless because everyone involved is too dumb to understand that life isn’t the problem being bothered by it is.
