OwlFancier posted:I 1. can control quite a lot, I can not reproduce every second of the day. Wow that must be a real struggle for you e: I'm shitposting but I also want to highlight what an unbelievably asinine stance this is. Do you think the rest of us are just wandering about flinging genetic material around with no thought to the consequences? some plague rats fucked around with this message at 00:52 on Apr 4, 2021 |

It's a pretty simple calculation to me, because I developed theory of mind as a child. Here we go. Would I rather be a. alive b. not alive If the answer is a then I'm in line with the greater mass of humanity, which probably includes hypothetical people in your weird mind palace. If the answer is b then I need to sort my poo poo out and get therapy and medicated until I see the value of life instead of assuming that I'm the protagonist of reality and have stumbled across an insight that has escaped generations of humanity so far

I didn't think we'd advance beyond the guy who got his mind blown by the Avengers movies but "what if my kid does a columbine and it reflects badly on me as a parent???" is an incredible twist

I don't know about morally or ethically but anyone in this thread reproducing is logistically wrong

The DPRK posted:Was it Gramsci who said it's a moral imperative not to have children as long as we have capitalism. It's both revolutionary to deny the system of workers, and a kindness to spare those children from a life of servitude. Do you think it diminishes his point at all that Gramsci went on to have multiple children?

sexpig by night posted:Gramsci's whole thing was contradicting himself depending which journal you're reading. Yeah he was cool as hell. Unlike this thread, which is just terrible, but that I keep reading because it's such a rare vintage of pseudo intellectual nonsense that it's strangely compelling

Big Scary Owl posted:Why is this thread considered "pseudo intellectual nonsense" in your mind? Because I've read the posts people have written in it?

Better not leave the house, suffering exists outside of it on a far greater scale than inside

Josef bugman posted:To say that "oh it's everywhere so why do anything" is far more churlish than to go "perhaps there are ways to not approach things". In the context of this thread those are exactly the same thing though. You just rephrased it. "suffering exists so don't have kids" is just doing nothing but making it sound active instead of passive

OwlFancier posted:I already answered that as well, it seems weird to me to imagine that animals are necessary happy (insofar as they are capable of experiencing happiness) given that nature is often very unpleasant to live in. It seems like your basic problem might be that you never developed empathy or theory of mind and are incapable of understanding experiences beyond your personal ones?

OwlFancier posted:Again, it can be both. No it can't!!! You have to choose one! Pretending it can be both is obviously an asinine exercise in doing nothing while reassuring yourself that you're helping! This is obvious to everyone except you and maybe the bugman, I have no idea what he's on about at any given moment

Strawberry Pyramid posted:A transhumanist would say it would be more moral to try and figure out immortality rather than continue to rely on perpetuating a cycle of non-consenual existence and death. Who gives a poo poo what transhumanists say about anything though? Genuinely the worst kind of nerds
