(1) Invent a problem that does not exist.
(2) Devise a solution for the non existent problem.
(3) Post that solution to ILP
(4) Have a wank in front of a mirror.
Even if it were possible for a matrix type virtual reality completely programmed by humans and dotbotting the free will out of consciousness, we can’t bootstrap the entire universe… Even the cyclic models have a first. The vacuum energy has a limit. Reverse engineering is not creating. If you take out free will there is no consensus. You can’t consent if you’re not free to consent. It’s like trying to force informed consent without providing the correct information. Unless they gave prior consent before intoxication… you can’t get around that exclusive pleasure thing, either…
Your best bet is to learn how to relate well with others. Treat them how you would want to be treated. Balance that by asking them how they would want to be treated, and seeing if it is also how you would want to be treated. Go back & forth like that until all the logical errors are corrected, and talk that process over with them so they are on the same page.
You can’t have sex or even communicate with everyone all at once. The logistics make it impossible. Choices — exclusions — must be made. Everyone understands this and doesn’t blame anyone else for making such choices/exclusions.
The a-hole husband on Tenet who wanted to kill his estranged wife so no one else could have her, is like the fake mom who was okay with the baby she stole dying instead of giving it back to its real mom.
If you love someone, let them choose who they share pleasure with. At least they’ll be happy, even you’re not involved. That’s how you know you love them.
Learn how to love, and you will eventually get chosen. Guaranteed.
I feel like you’re mocking something I posted on Facebook Nov 19… but… that would mean you saw it when it was public.
To answer you… no… nothing I have ever done or will ever do could come close to the sort of wild love Jesus demonstrated on the cross so that we can have life —-complete joy - in him - knowing we are loved despite our crap - extending that love to others despite theirs. There is only one, and I am definitely NOT, but I am in him, and he is in me. But wholly other. And by invitation only. lol whole new meaning. Except… older than old.
If you’re just talking ethics or economics, or political philosophy…. same same…. pleasure/happiness is not an exhaustible resource. Folks with very little resources can be happier than those with all the resources. See my Christian Economics thread for a bit more (WW_III_ANGRY missed the point of it). See my last reply for self-sacrifice & joy that forgives. Read more Kierkegaard. And read “my” (his) Good News of the Kingdom link.
