    I’m advocating for the elimination of poverty, disease, death, pollution, war, hate, and all human suffering.

    Sure, there are some neat things in this world that are worth experiencing if you were forced to live. If you’re already alive, of course you should seek to find happiness and enjoyment in the little time you have.

    Still doesn’t justify forcing more people into the world to exacerbate the problems we have - overpopulation being a major one.

    It’s not evil. Things were fine before us, and things will be fine after us.

      “Things” were not observable by anything with the capability to designate them as such, so no they were not “fine” in any meaningful sense of the word.

      You’re literally doing the speech the villain does to make him seem reasonable.

      I am literally begging you to find a therapist.

        Semantics, but if you really want to get into it, a lack of ability for things to be good or bad is still better than the existence and perpetuation of suffering.

        Also, responding to differing worldviews with “see a therapist” and comparing them to a villain is fucking disgusting
