Thanks for the link to the S-risks article. The second picrel reminds me of the NEET pod debate.

I think most of the agential and incidental ones are caused by vices like double standards (escapism from being bound to ethics) and the vices are protected by censorship and surveillance which reinforce mass cowardice.

The animal never ceases to conspire so the ghost must too, to defeat it.

 
We are not the same.

The riskiest age for suicide is between 18 and 28.
I tried on 96 (18) and 04 (25). In 04 I was going to thrown myself in front of a train.
Fucking hormones. They control you during this age. You dont have sovereignty over your own body.
What made you attempt it?

I've created a thread for discussing Roko's Basilisk and the things that lead up to it

However, have you ever thought that maybe your consciousness is the only consciousness? So, effectively you're entirely alone in this universe. This perspective exists because we cannot know for certain whether other people are conscious the way we/I are/am.

And this proposition satisfies the The Vertiginous Question btw.

How does this work? Are the others just you?

This is the multipolar quantum theory. You interact with a npc version of me, and I interact with a npc version of you. So there are at least 6 billion universes, one for each inhabitant on Earth.

Yes. It's very hard to deal with, lol. I generally don't engage with that thought as it tends to generate hatred for others.

Would explain why people have always treated me the way they do. If I'm getting an NPC's recreation of their events through a quantum filter. Kinda just sounds like a consciousness in reality having biological constraints, NGL.
