In a similar vein, I think Snowpiercer should have ended about five minutes earlier than it did. I was rooting for humanity to end.

I headcanon the two kids immediately get eaten by that polar bear so the same satisfaction remains.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree, but without the apologizing.

[(Anonymous)]

I could get behind this except for the fact that if you look at most of history, a century is an unrealistically short amount of time to expect a lot of human progress... or any at all.

Thing is, killing yourself because you think life on earth is going nowhere is a completely different proposition than killing piles of people who appreciate being alive, because you've decided for them that it's all not good enough.

I mean - the point of view you're describing is instantly relatable to me, as well, but after the existential shock that was finding vegans online who think 1. all carnivorous animals should be forcibly "evolved" with human technology into being able to survive on plants, or 2. if that's not possible, they should all be killed to prevent them from traumatizing and eating the poor herbivores (because predation is deeply upsetting to humans), and should be eradicated everywhere ... I stopped feeling like the "we're against suffering!" people really have any sane grasp of reality whatsoever.

AYRT I'm empathizing with an OP who thinks a character (that I'm assuming is a villain) is relatable because said character's angry at humans repeating the same dumb-cruel behaviors for 100 years, and they want to end the world.

I'm also trying to point out that I think it's still arrogant and unjustified, on anyone's part, to decide life isn't worth it *for other people.* Which this character is presumably doing.

I thought the logical flaws might be more obvious if I took human lives out of the equation, and pointed out that some of the people trying to dream up "a world without suffering" for animals, have gone off the rails because they think they have the right to judge nature and force it to fit their prejudice. And that, if it can't be railroaded into what they think the "correct" shape would be, it shouldn't exist at all.

Do you see the parallel?

[bannedbookweek]

Sorry I just meant that your second paragraph is fucking terrifying. Like I agree with what you're seeing but "after the existential shock that was finding vegans online who think 1. all carnivorous animals should be forcibly "evolved" with human technology into being able to survive on plants, or 2. if that's not possible, they should all be killed to prevent them from traumatizing and eating the poor herbivores (because predation is deeply upsetting to humans), and should be eradicated everywhere" is not something I expected to discover

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT Oh. Me neither!

You're making me feel less silly for being like "o_O" about that for a while, afterwards. Because I definitely was. So, thanks for that.

[(Anonymous)]

That whole second paragraph was a hell of a thing to read. Just straight off the rails.

[(Anonymous)]

Ah, I encountered those types for the first time just a week or so ago. Of course, the ones I found were also advocating for finding some way to sterilize all herbivores, as well, since even eliminating predators would not end their suffering. No, the way to end the suffering of wild animals is to make sure that there are no more of them.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah. Those are the extreme of the extreme. I've met a few online, too. But it seems there's considerably less of them than the other kind: even antinatalists don't generally take their philosophy that far.

And, in case it's not clear to someone casually reading this thread, I think if someone's thought process is leading them to a conclusion like "oh, the only successful way to prevent suffering is to exterminate all life" ... something they accepted as true is false and needs reevaluating. To put that mildly.

[(Anonymous)]

Well, this is not a healthy comment section.

*JD & Dr Cox meme*
Where do you think we are?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, she was extremely depressed and I like that Myka stopped her by forcing the point that she'd be actually killing individual people (Myka in particular) and making her reckon with reality rather than by trying to persuade her that things were good and nature is beautiful etc. etc. as depression speeches often go. And I definitely get that feeling.

[iff_and_xor]

Yes, I liked that too!

Dang it, time for a rewatch.
