There is no problem. Nothing refers to absence. Kant did a pretty good job of highlighting this in terms of noumenon. Nothing exists ionly in a ‘negat...
So you think a modern Luddite (mor form of one) is one that attempts to recuperate nature? In what ways may this return jobs to people? I get that tak...
I guessed. If you were trying to say what I stated above you failed to get it across clearly. I just thought about what may or may not be the underlyi...
I have a feeling what you are getting at (albeit in a round about manner) is that agreed rules set out by people have limited jurisdiction … meaning i...
Desiring not to have desires is still ‘desire’. I generally avoid/shun anyone who adheres to any ism with rigidity and persistence. As a general rule ...
Just to be clear … I am interested in this from an anthropological and psychological perspective. The question can be asked about whether or not someo...
My point was you assume it is a yes/no answer? As always ‘it depends,’ and even then it may be revealed that to declare what ‘should’ or ‘should not’ ...
We are all far more alike than we like to think we are. I sometimes wish we embraced this more than we seem to at times, yet still I am far more scare...
Either you are not really taking this seriously or you hve some kind of strange mental block. Anyway, bye bye. You just did away with any future inter...
So you are asking a redunant question. If you are framing certain kinds of burden as unnecessary and then asking people to name an unnecessary burden ...
X states an apple is an apple then claims that an apple is an apple. Y asks what the point of this is. That is a basic breakdown of the exchange we ha...
There is nothing here then. Just you expressing an opinion. If something is unnecessary it is unnecessary. It depends. Not much to talk about then. We...
Obviously if you define something as unjustified it is unjustified. Some given ‘burden’ that is ‘unnecessary’ is an extremely abstract proposition. Yo...
It would depend on the circumstances. There is no ‘wrong’ done just because I am burdened with something. There are circumstances where I would person...
Your opinion. You have to accept you are expressing an opinion here rather than offering an iron cast argument that backs up your opinion. It is ‘wron...
I think people have problems with it due to low resolution understanding and/or because fanatics of antinatalism also possess low resolution views. As...
Just like many a tyrant has claimed on the past. Ironically they pursue obliteration and/or various forms and extensions of human suffering rather tha...
Nations don’t actually exist in a physical sense. You scenario does a decent job of bringing this to people’s attention … or does it? I will have to r...
@"Benj96" A SLIGHT exaggeration maybe. It simply depends con whether or not one is fanatical about any proposed philosophical position. There is a sig...
As I cannot read the article a couple of caveats … ‘virtual’ anything comes in degrees and levels. Games are not meant to simulate violence accurately...
Again. Imposing your view onto others. You are fairly unique in your pessimism. Of course. You hate guilt/responsibility. You are not willing to do ma...
Yes. This is called extinction. Life without burdens is NOT life. You are imagining something impossible over and over (even ‘rights’ of people who ha...
Okay, let me put it like this. Because YOU say something is unnecessary it does not make it so. Something being ‘unnecessary’ is not necessarily ‘wron...
To repeat. Loaded question. Clearly if something is unnecessary it is unnecessary. Teaching and learning are ‘burdens’. They are necessary ‘burdens’. ...
Then it does not matter. If there is not ethical quandary then why bother gesticulating about it? It is perfectly justifiable to have children for peo...
Because we don’t attend to the obvious unless there is a reason to. I pay no heed to how I inhale or exhale … except now I am doing just that. ‘To Que...
It depends what is meant by ‘doubt’. I think it is fair to say anything in direct conscious attention is being ‘questioned’ to some degree. Otherwise ...
It doesn’t imply that. You read that into the words I wrote. Nothing thinly veined about it. It was a direct attack on someone espousing the idea that...
Avoiding responsibility is basically what I think he is referring to. No responsibilities means you cannot be blamed for anything or have the ‘burden’...
It has been addressed by others well enough I think. It depends on whether you wanted to talk about transgenderism or Motte and Bailey in particular I...
Yes. Thankfully not everyone is swayed by the belief in monetary value above all else. When it comes to the US (looking in from the outside) it does a...
Myths are almost certainly educational devices used in prehistory. Knowledge needs to be passed on somehow and narratives are a great way to do so. Ly...
In physical sports no. I general yes. It is common sense. By the end pf the century I expect there will be a complete change of our species and we wil...
More gibberish. We shit and breath without choice. We may try not to do either but they are both inevitable until death comes. The rest is more unrela...
I’m not going to get stuck in some semantic mess. The root of this whole anitnatalist view is useful for self-reflection on the ‘why’ someone may choo...
No. This does not logically follow. I may think about killing people yet that thought does not make me a murderer. The potential ability to commit mur...
