we really need to stop trying to solve spirtual problems with materialist ideologies. thats exactly what the world needs less of.

[@Jasmine69420]

How about stop prescribing your pesudospecific BS to the world at large if you're content enough to sit cross legged and tell yourself you're a champ for feeling like you're thinking real hard.

[@damprat141]

Personally, I wanna enter like infinite spectator mode and watch all of reality from every perspective. I want my brain hooked up to a computer powered off of a Dyson sphere so I can run simulations and just discover and think until the very decay of reality itself. I find it all so beautiful, I just want to see absolutely every possible thing

[@damprat141]

@@LordElgor that's one idea , yeah, but that won't stop my longing to experience. The idea of purposely disconnecting my consciousness from the wider superstructure in order to immerse myself fully in a new simulation is one that I've had.

[@damprat141]

@@LordElgor I think part of the point is not choosing to be done with the game , you gotta play everything out to the end so you can feel it all. Both within the bounds of this metaphorical supercomputer, but just also in real life. The reason I'm still here is because there is just so much capacity for beauty and change in the world .

I was with this guys until the question of overpopulation and climate collapse came up. Mind-bogglingly insipid. It’s almost coy to just go “death is scary and who likes scary things, why do people have such an issue with us solving it hurr durr.” The earth is not infinite. Our ecosystems and the other millions of other species are already buckling under our _current_ population. The majority of the global south does not live like royalty, we keep you well-fed and the lights on while children die in warehouses and mines. Confoundingly short-sighted and myopic to just cross your fingers and hope for the best, but I suppose if an age-reversing technology existed, so too would the process of having infinite fuel/resources. Thank god that’s not how that works. It speaks to such a desire of pure fantasy that only a child could operate such logic. But anyway good podcast, I’m glad you get people like this on here willing to share their side.

[@xstij]

totally here for this, and im glad someone said it. this is a tough watch but always interesting to see different perspectives. i suppose their solution comes from the other side of the horseshoe :/

[@polishdronestrike1797]

Maybe if people live longer they would care more for the environment they are changing, we are ruining the world for the future generations, if it changes to everyone who lives right now people will get smarter about it. But honestly I believe all those nerds who fight for longer lives are peons of the ultra rich who will die soon, they understand no amount of money will make them not die and they cope how they can

[@Getsadandstuff]

Nothing to say but God bless have a good day (edit: can we get a no guest just host podcast at some point again)

[@philon3kjavik817]

Personally, I think the guests are childishly clinging to techno-hopium and out of touch with reality in regard to resource overconsumption and relative quality of life, but it was interesting to listen nonetheless.

I am all for trans-humanism, as in we should all be trans. Think about it - women know what the perfect man should be like, and men know what the perfect woman should be like too. If we force everyone to be the opposite sex, we'll get perfect men-women and women-men. I'm only half joking. The other half of the statement is confused and thinks it's a serious ideology

[@IbnRushd-mv3fp]

Mental androgyny was unironiclly the pathway humanity was supposed to go down since jesus, you need to realize this shit you're saying is perverted version of something that GENUINELY needs to be achieved or we'll collapse as a species.

I think these guys just need to accept the inevitability of death.

[@nsxkkxlnmiyo8722]

there is a point of development in the sciences, a point where one would be able to say no to death, in many ways, we are there, with treatments that are sucesfull for those that suffer some sort of cancer already. thats just an example, the counter point i am trying to make is that the death is not always inevitable, sometimes, is evitable and that is worth striving for that. i think, obviously, what these guys are talking about is eternal life perhaps, i have just started to watch the episode.

[@aaronborok8398]

Tbh the beginning of the podcast I honestly agreed with most of what they were saying; I think it's a valiant goal to wanna fight against the aging process and I am pro "freedom for life" in theory. But like damn did they lose me as soon as they tried to refute the arguments against it in a political context. Like when they said "I mean people are having less children than before so it wouldn't be an issue" like. Why is it I wonder why people are having less children in society right now? What factors would be perhaps, related to a declining desire to bring more life in the world? Hmmm And then yeah proceeded to not really say much at all about how they could feasibly put this idea into actual practice or how they could legitimately give this idealized life-extensions to people in an equitable way. Just like "do the thing and it'll work out :^)"

what about overpopulation tho? If people live longer, then more people!

[@electricsquidxd3254]

Wouldn't the idea that people live forever make reproduction obsolete, the oldest living species of animals only reproduce like once in their life time and only after decades and decades, because they have such long lives, if there was no end then there would be no need to have offspring

[@PatrickRickStar]

​@electricsquidxd3254 that does make sense because if humanity can somehow technologically immortal someday breeding would be pointless since breeding is a means of extending one's life through there offspring nowadays and not for the sake of survival and existence of us. We as humans have been seek immortality forever whether it be through art, innovations, philosophies etc some if not most people want to be remembered

[@Hulkman5000]
