Non-existence isn’t scary, scary thing is losing your existence.
Yeah, I didn’t exist for billions of years and I’m fine…ish. idk what happens after though
Same thing that happened before. You were fine with not existing before hand.
This was my immediate thought also, whatever part of me that is making the decision already exists so this is the same question as “would you want to stop existing now?” the answer to which is an emphatic “no.” I’d exist indefinitely given the choice.
Yup same thoughts!
Certainly not.
Why not?
gestures vaguely at everything
I would rather have not experienced my life.
Just because things haven’t been great so far doesn’t mean they won’t be better in the future. I hope you are able to improve your life into something you want to experience.
…rimjob_steve
Found something to live for lmao
Can we make them better tomorrow? I mean we’ve generated enough wealth.
no.
Same
Absolutely.
A. Even with how shit the world is there’s enough good that exists for it to be worth it.
B. If I didn’t exist, I would never have a chance to help improve the world in my small way.
Same view but I also have had it pretty good. Great family and support, passed that on to my kids, and I’ve had a lot of support with great teachers through my years so now I pass that on to those less fortunate and it just does it for me. It’s a great feeling helping others.
Here’s your Christmas advice kids: care about other people, nothing else will actually fulfill you.
No. And thats the reason i don’t have kids.
Humanity is rotten, and personally i don’t think we’ll ever change. The best thing that can happen to earth is for humanity to collapse and become extinct.
No. Not even remotely. Not even if I was assured it was a simulation. No.
Certainly yes.
Fuuuuuck no.
I’m echoing a lot of the replies here by saying “No.” Even if I’m given a choice as to what kind of life I’d live, still no.
Even if people say there’s a lot of good things in life, or that there are people living their dreams in this world, still no. I don’t play the lottery, even if I might end up with more money than I could ever hope to spend. The same logic applies here.
There would be no me to regret not existing if I don’t exist.
What if you could choose to be born with absolute power, like an emperor of old, and mold society into the shape you wish it were?
I know myself enough that I’m likely to let that absolute power absolutely corrupt me and hence, make things absolutely worse for everyone around me.
I’m not that good of a person to be able to be sure that I won’t abuse that power, nor am I wise enough to know what to do in order to use that power for the good of everyone. Worse, I’d fall under the delusion that I’m the only person with the will and power to able to do good, and that my ideals are the only ones that count.
So, unfortunately, no. I must decline.
That’s very introspective. I need to participate in that sort of self-evaluation more often. Believe it or not, I think our silly little conversation actually just helped me IRL. Thanks!
I’m glad it somehow helped you IRL. Best of luck to you!
Fuck no.
Even if my life currently is not bad, there are and have been bad times. Not existing is never bad. So no.
Not existing is neither bad nor good, existence is the experience of both good and bad things. Don’t only focus on the bad ones.
Others have already answered this well, but I’ll repeat it anyway: No.
Hell no
No
I reckon so, yeah. Better than nothing, right? Been plenty of good with the bad. That’s about all a disembodied energy form could really hope for, after all.
