One of my professors in college wondered if our time on Earth was the result of extraterrestrial social science experiment.
Right but that doesn't mean that it should be impermissible for people who feel a lot of pain in life to opt out.
Right. Everyone's job here at this point should be nothing other than making this world a better happier more loveing place to live. FUCK money and politics and tv and everything else. When we can as a group say "THIS WORLD IS FIT FOR ANOTHER CHILD" that is when our job is done. This world is not fit for children now and has not been for far too long. This world isnt even fit for adults as we constantly hurt and ignore each other.
Outdated concept, tech dystopia is underway.
Here's the thing. I don't think we can ever truly fix this world. We will always have problems. The battle never ends. You should not be obligated to fix the world. Most people aren't cut out for that. Just find something that makes you happy. What about people who can't give back because they're irreparably damaged?
This is also true but what im saying is that if we had "one job" while we did our best to be happy then that would be to try and make this a place worth living. There are good things here even though its sometimes hard to see that when we are down.
They should't impose their views of life on other people when they've lived easy and carefree lives or at the very least have only had temporary or situational problems. The idea that everything is fixable and life is always worth living is a naively optimistic illusion created by normies that know fuck all about life.
Most people don't have the capacity to think that far, they just repeat what they've been hearing their whole life, like some parrots "Everyone has the right to live! Every life is precious!"
Can you describe this to me? Sorry for the stupid question, I just don't experience this.
As an anhedonic you need an obsession, and at the very end of that obsession will be moments of beauty and wonder that will make you forget, for that moment, that you are anhedonic. It's an epic journey though.
Haha! That's why we lovingly call it CATCHING THE BUS OUTTA HERE! Everyone seems just fine sinking with the ship. Nobody wants to grab a bucket of thatch or scoop some water or something.
Today and every day (depending on someone's mood) you will see miracles everywhere. The sun and moon and clouds and birds and the city and the country. The people get a little bit harder to see miracles in but even the shittiest person here is a miracle in their own way. However those miracles aren't worth a damn when most if us are so messed up inside that we cant enjoy them anymore. Another reason to go.
You had me tell the last bit. Nothing is ever that cut and dry. There may only be one logical answer or conclusion for you but that will wildly vary from individual to individual.
It's kinda like the churches saying, "Suicide is a horrible sin so please keep living your miserable life while putting money you don't have in the basket and letting us prosper off all your misery.". They kinda keep you around but never do a thing to lift any of us up. Not every single church and preacher but as a whole they also keep us down in many ways. It is also a "learned" behavior therefore it's not exactly natural. Natural is a little more like what Dr.Jack did (the Canadian guy).

Yeah I had to look it up just now when I saw it. I would say it's like lethargic or apathy but still a little different. Like I guess it's just "blah" all the time. Like no joy in life. It's a good descriptive word.Rage fuel story:
Back when I was getting "hElP" (drugs that made me violent and impulsive, don't add energy to a soulless psyche) my doctor or whatever he was didn't know what anhedonia was. (The most important symptom of depression, which I was being "trEaTed" for). He asked if I was able to taste food. I replied that I have a sense of taste and can know if something is tasty or disgusting, but that I don't get anything out of it. He said that if I have anhedonia (which he just heard of for the first time) then I would not be able to taste the food. In that case I guess SN will taste like water if you're depressed enough.
And if you you're even more depressed your senses will go into the negatives, so that tasty things become disgusting, disgusting things become tasty, and SN will taste like vanilla sugar. Science!
And hanging will feel like getting hugged by friendly bears. I wish I actually had anhedonia, but last time I checked I couldn't even drink cold coffee without wincing.
