He has a point but I’d still rather have conciousness

not depressed
What is the point of being aware that our life comes to an end and we won’t remember a single thing?
Literally not a single actual benefit

 

[#dnr]

you'll grow out of this

I don’t think so
Not even in a depressed way it genuinely just seems to be a really pointless thing to evolve

Niggas mad he’s experiencing life consciously instead of being born as a bot ass tree

only if you keep thinking about it too much

intellectualization is the enemy

figure out something to fill your life with
and soon you'll realise you havent even thought about it for a long time

its all worth it IMHO

I’m fine with my life tbh, but realistically the fact we have consciousness brings us no benefit
Without consciousness people wouldn’t have over complicated life to be what it is modern day and honestly feels like that would make a lot more sense

From an evolutionary standpoint just seems like a misstep

Precisely
We have to live with the fact our existence is finite and none of this matters in the slightest
trapped in a fleshy body with existential thoughts about why we are here when we should just be eating and reproducing realistically

i partly* agree but i dont wanna keep thinking about that, it just serves no benefit for me right now

(partly= i agree that consciousness is overall a negative as people are profoundly suffering from it everywhere however it is egocentric to state its completely useless as some people still enjoy their consciousness and would not wanna lose it)

 

[lowinhibragecel]

i don't agree with this take

but i do think consciousness is quite painful

sometimes i imagine how blissful it must be to be a retarded normie who is satisfied with things like a yearly holiday after a year of wageslaving

Not thinking about it is definitely the right way to go about it
Just can’t help but think it serves no real purpose other than making us suffer needlessly

it’s very interesting
Maybe it’s all a symptom of rapid brain development and us not being biologically accustomed to modern society

but to an extent could we say that most of the population doesn't ever really gain real consciousness? as in they never ever have deep thoughts, yk they never have a real moment of silence, never in their lives have they ever sat there and thought deeply about their lives

I think that’s just an iq gap
Everything is all relative and it’s impossible to truly know but I think it’s fair to assume everybody has the capacity to experience negative emotions, feeling a lack of purpose at some point etc when there’s absolutely no need for human beings to ever really think about anything like that whatsoever
We’re mammals and that’s it, we’re supposed to live long enough to reproduce, not wonder if our lives are ‘enough’ or have any feeling of purposelessness
Also makes me think about how we truly lack free will when you get to the brass tacks of it all
