Trolley problem nuance, and morons are downvoting you

This is the correct answer in any single chain deterministic universe... It always happened just like that.

To add to the other comment, the two concepts of an afterlife and punishment or reward are separate concepts and don't have to coincide. Some faiths explicitly believe in heaven and not hell, and some neither.

Always remember when thinking about possibilities, given totally made up shit, the answer is always all possibilities exist and must be considered.

Why? We aren't taking care of our people. I'm sure many of them feel the same way or close. Lots of people don't want to live in misery, especially when they realize most of it is an actively created construct by others. If you combine that with the very common belief in an afterlife, it becomes a very obvious and likely path.

There are certain kinds of rules and discoveries that society can make that they must defend by making rules that eliminate anyone that dares bring the adverse ruling up again. You want slavery and propose it back into law? Society kills you for that.

Correct despite downvotes

The hard part is when back to back traffic for 15 miles worth of cars is coming from one direction and everyone else is either too scared to zipper merge or they allow the one direction to have perpetual right of way.

At some point of heavy traffic, the circle right of way must yield for zipper merging, else face my ass aggro merging and beeping at everyone who doesn't.

Then fix the interest rates. Set them to 0% and do a mandatory income based repayment with a subsidy reduction from the graduating institution to incentivize them to help place graduates in better positions. If you hit the institutions with non-placement claw-back fees they will help.

Very depressing. We're social animals, and being highly literate and informed while also socially apt, you really realize just how far apart you are from others, which is alienating, frustrating, and tiresome.

You have a medical problem, possibly schizophrenia, get help. Meditative thinking does not produce any of this for a normal person.

They got revokeable permission apparently.

This is why when you get permission, where you must plan for a decade of work, and they are saying yes, you get them to say in perpetuity and non-revokeable.

That's what taxes and public utilities are for. Convert them.

No regular user can configure anything. Most are barely literate and have the reading comprehension of a 6-8 year old.

Ai allows them to just say, turn down the brightness, turn down the volume, use this program to open this file from now on, which makes 10% configuration accessible to the 99% who otherwise would have 1% or less.

Continue to work and fuck over poor people is very popular.

I'm sure the actual paper defines this better, but without a definition of what puts something in this category, it's not useful.

Even for bread, is it all bread? Is it added gluten? Is it a specific preservative? Is it only bread with bleached flour?

Even so, mass produced and packaged is not the actual contributor...

Same with prepared food... Costco makes prepared food that is equivalent to what you'd make at home. It's that still bad? If not, what other prepared food is fine?

So just a slightly different flavor.

Surprise, it's religious history.

You won't like the answer. If you don't want to be lumped in with other magical thinkers, then don't be a magical thinker, else you're in the same boat and should be evaluated the same. All flavors are the same and all are destructive, just with differing exact details. It is possible to be a scientific thinker and be evil, but this can be changed with evidence on the whole, but it is not possible to be a magical thinker and to not contribute to evil, and those aspects cannot be changed as they are core to a faulty methodology of thinking which is pervasive, insidious, and pseudo-randomly aligned with changing educational theory. If you think it's possible to only align magical thinking with benevolent acts, you're wrong.

No true Scotsman. All religion is evil by nature of faith over evidence and magical thinking.
