We shouldn’t of had to do that

[Geyde]

but I’m going to hellraise since Luxy literally did it because of a superiority complex

[Simon]

hold on ill go back and get the rest

[Firekitten]

Watch this

[Geyde]

It’s a courtesy thing
Simon did it even though we didn’t
That’s p cool

[Arete]

@firekitten

Hold on a second

@Geyde

There’s a reason why a new age of thinking coming in brings about new progression in society
Immortality sucks at a societal level, but to the individual it could be seen as perfection

@firekitten

Why immortality shouldn’t be a thing. Flowey experience sums it right up

@firekitten

or rather a similar concept

life is exciting until you do everything

@Geyde

There are countless things to do , so that line of thinking is fundamentally flawed

@Geyde

And even then tech develops, society changes, and new things are created at a constant rate

@firekitten

Yeah I think it was a bad comparison because it’s a time loop here but I think it’s similar in a way about how people emotions will change as things goes on.

@Arete

I don’t videos

‘videos’ is a verb in the above sentence

@Geyde

Some people can’t handle immortality
Others can

I think it’s that simple

@firekitten

Murder is wrong. However not helping someone is not against the law.

@firekitten

I think it honestly depends, we don’t actually know if there’s a breaking point.

@Arete

But murder isn’t wrong because of it being against the law , that’s not the thing that makes murder bad

Failing to prevent someone from dying when you could do so is arguably morally equivalent to murder

@Arete

in that the consequences are the same

@Geyde

that’s kind of the point I was making

@Geyde

Not really, especially when you yourself are at risk

@firekitten

There’s a reason old dogs and old cats are put down after a while.

@Arete

especially when you yourself are at risk

if you’re in danger as well that obviously changes the moral equation because your own life is morally valuable as well, not just the life of the person you would save

if you can save someone else’s life with no harm to anyone else then obviously you should do that??

@Geyde

Would be cool to see how immortality (or at least perceived immortality) would impact the mind and how people make decisions

@firekitten

By giving someone immortality that they cannot undo, you made it so that if they ever don’t want to continue living they cannot end it. They will be suffering, and you are the one that caused it.

@Geyde

especially when you yourself are at risk

if you’re in danger as well that obviously changes the moral equation because your own life is morally valuable as well, not just the life of the person you would save

if you can save someone else’s life with no harm to anyone else then obviously you should do that??

What if they are an asshole and actively ruin the lives of the people around them

what the hell 200 posts in best/worst quotes

[Nerbins]

I won’t lie before I wanted the stuff purged but Geyde swayed me
Good job man

[Geyde]

Waxing philosophy on the internet is a popular passtime

[JakeTheWolfie]

The king has decided to execute [1]

[Arete]

are you good or do you need help?

[Simon]

ok it should all be there.
its a bit jank because i manually highlighted everything (and i had to split it into parts because of how the forum loads new posts)
so there are some duplicates and some jank.
but i have it

[Arete]

Post it please

[JakeTheWolfie]

The heck are u talking about?

[Firekitten]

We are pissed off

[Simon]

we had a very existential conversation in the quotes thread and luxy is purging it* so i put it in a paste bin

*or moving it or something but i did it just in case

[Isaac_Gonzalez]

lol why

[Firekitten]

They are purging a discussion we spent time in effort in and had fun

[Nerbins]

They discussed philosophy in the Forum Quotes thread and Luxy decided that wasn’t the place for it so he’s moving it somewhere else.
Some people are pissed cuz he deleted/moved stuff that wasn’t against forum rules and it’s a non-official off-topic thread so it had the right to stay there

[DatBird]

wow i leave for 4 hours and yall discover philosophy im sad i missed out
