無為

Silenus said:

For he lives with the least worry who knows not his misfortune; but for humans, the best for them is not to be born at all, not to partake of nature's excellence; not to be is best, for both sexes. This should be our choice, if choice we have; and the next to this is, when we are born, to die as soon as we can.

I wake up in the morning, I ask myself what I'm doing with my life, I answer myself, I say "is that all?", I reply "that's all there is", and I'm like oh yeah right fuck

Here's an inexhaustive list of things that are better than that loop:

not existing
pretending not to exist
never having the question "what's all this for, anyway?" cross your mind in the first place (this shouldn't be confused with "ignorance is bliss" advocacy though... it's dumb luck advocacy)

A large part of this problem is empathy. Dawkins' Selfish Gene and whatever... if you care, you make an effort not to procreate because like... your unborn child certainly can't consent to that and literally is there anyone who's like "yay I'm so glad I was born"

So this problem isn't widespread because it's not self-serving enough to be well-represented in the gene pool

Instead we get antivax minions
