why are there two different blog posts debunking the idea that its unethical to be a precog esper because people in precognitive visions might get hurt.  what the fuck does that even mean.  none of that shit happened.  type of guy who thinks schizophrenics should be rounded up and shot so nothing bad happens to the imaginary people they hallucinate

i was actually born inside a precognitive vision

It's okay, I simulated the guy who writes these blogposts.  My simulation determined he wasn't a person, just shaped like one

what an extraordinary smarmy and self-congratulatory tag essay to put on my post??

If schizophrenics were actually running torture simulations than yes, the right thing to do would be to round them up, figure out whatever we can about how they did it (for computing tech or something), and then kill them, just like we do to dungeons, the things that actually torture people who can't escape.

"The answer IS murder actually"

Wow ok then.

Well your options are 1) accept that killing things when there's no other way to stop them from torturing people is fine; 2) be racist against dungeons (in the sense that they only might be people, there's never been an esper power that could check); 3) be against killing dungeons; or 4) not think too hard about what your moral principals are.

I pick 1 and to a lesser extent 2, which one(s) do you?

No, the answer WOULD BE murder. We are pretty sure that both schizophrenics and precogs don't actually run torture simulations (as the OP linked).

If I imagine punching someone a lot is that a torture simulation

if you are worried you’re in a simulation you should go outside and touch some grass.

if the grass is deeply unsatisfying then you might be in a simul... haha no i mean get therapy.

if you can’t find any grass then you might be in a simulation. or an urban hellscape.

Definitely not, unless you're an esper with a precog power, in which case only probably not.

Come on, we're obviously in a simulation, the question is whether things with us have enough fidelity to run their own, one-layer-deeper one.

Dungeons aren't people, but even if they were, there's a difference between killing mentally ill people for things beyond their control and killing "people" who decided to kidnap, torture, and sometimes murder innocents?

oh boy, are we doing dungeon personhood discourse this week?

I feel like if you start your sentence by claiming a class of entities aren't people when there isn't any evidence for that (to be fair there isn't really any evidence against either) you don't get to accuse me of discriminating here.

Do you also think donkeys are people? Ottos? Delivery drones?

Sentient but not sapient, neither, neither. Next question?

There's a different part???

There's the parts that will accuse you of being racist against fictional species? Also tbh op I don't know what you were expecting when you posted esper discourse. Didn't you want the attention?

#not music, #esper stuff,#dungeon stuff #queuing for attention.

The mistake was not engaging in discourse, the mistake was talking to other people.  Never ends well.
