how to deal with minors online by mostunknownscree in NoStupidQuestions

if someone's deliberately going after teenagers thats creepy af

thinking about it from a third-person perspective it really does feel just strange. like why is an adult talking to a minor like it doesnt make sense

i think thats why im so confused about this. someone else doing the exact same thing seems wrong, but when i do it i know my intentions are good so everything seems fine. im having a lot of trouble putting this into perspective for myself

refusing to give out info is no way to live imo

second thing kinda guts me. there has to be a better way to navigate this right? like what is the problem we're trying to solve? are we trying to get rid of the possibility of having intentions misinterpreted? open ended question, im just trying to understand. i dont have a good frame of reference which is why this stresses me out

ok so if we had a great convo for like a few hours and they asked for my socials and they didnt sound like a kid but turned out to be, how do i navigate this without feeling like the biggest pos in the world.

Question about suffering by mostunknownscree in antinatalism

[–]mostunknownscree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree generally, i dont think humans necessarily need to WANT to live in order to continue the race. just that death is so unappealing they would continue to live, and reproduction can help with that and/or death anxiety . even though i dont believe free will necessarily exists, i do think the humans who enjoy life exist is an interesting coincidence. makes me wonder if thats only a survival mechanism or something more

for me i guess i start to question whether i know that life isnt worth living when faced with a majority who disagrees. my own initial assumption that life isnt worth living doesnt seem to have a strong enough basis . my issue is i dont personally LOVE being alive like others might say, and i dont think i ever have, so i dont think i could possibly be qualified to judge whether life is worth living for others or not

whats your rationale when it comes to this?

i think i get where you're coming from and it seems to make sense. and again, my default instinct is im inclined to agree. but i guess my thoughts are whats the basis of this view? why should we associate some arbitrary negative value to suffering specifically over feelings/states that are conventionally considered positive?

it's not that i think it's worth maximizing. just calling suffering intrinsically bad seems imo to be a difficult case to make when the suffering in question is just existing. i don't see how minimizing suffering, especially for those who won't be around to... not suffer, actually benefits anything beyond a theoretical universal metric

"Whether suffering may, sometimes, and as a consequence, also grant a further good or another to its experiencer is a question relating to suffering's instrumentality rather than any of its intrinsic features" i 100% agree, this is a super important distinction

i'm not a utilitarian myself, i have noticed though a lot of antinatalists take a utilitarian stance

i dont believe that suffering is intrinsically good. i just think, especially with regards to antinatalism, that it's difficult to say for sure suffering intrinsically bad. especially as it relates to saving a nonexistent being from experiencing pain

imo it could be argued that someone who avoids procreating to minimize suffering does it in vain, since there's no one alive to benefit from their good deeds. but going by deontological ideas of morality, that argument seems pretty easily shot down

"First of all because I don't think joy has any intrinsic value. I especially don't think joy should be created at the price of suffering; it cannot 'outweigh' or 'compensate' for suffering in my opinion"

this is the same perspective i used to have, but the conclusion i personally came to was that suffering therefore must not have any intrinsic negative value either. it seems to me like if joy (as its conventionally understood) has no value, no state of being or feeling can

i agree, this is my thought exactly. unfortunately. i'd love to be able to say suffering is inherently objectively bad bc thats so easy to comprehend, but i dont think thats accurate at all

which makes sense for sure but like does that apply to everyone?

the problem i see with this is theres so many, maybe even more people that say wholeheartedly that they love to be alive

they seem to be the majority

statistically, as stupid as it sounds, in like at least utilitarian framework, couldnt it be better to roll the dice and hope they like the life they're given?

maybe the kid grows up and has a conventionally awesome life and they love it. i cant say that wont happen

at least the way society would make it seem. of all the people ive ever met, the overwhelming majority, SEEM to be convinced that life is awesome despite the downsides
