- Paul Ford:
- The entire world of emulation is filled with references to very specific things that you should not seek out, that you must never Google, that you should definitely not obtain.
- Summerspeaker:
- If suffering proves absolutely necessarily for conscious and intelligence, then at that point I’d conclude it’s best to just wipe out life entirely. (I’d share this insight and commit suicide.) I doubt that’s the case. We can engineer superior motivational structures.
- Scott Dunn:
- Advertising. I avoid it whenever possible because I consider it garbage for the brain.
- Richard C. Longworth:
- What is the purpose of an economy? If it is not solely for the well-being of the people who live within it, what is an economy for?
- LarryHart:
- Liberals think that life is supposed to be a positive experience, and that when it is not, that is a problem for society to address and (if possible) fix. Conservatives think that life is supposed to suck, and that if you’re enjoying the experience too much, that is a problem for society to address and (if possible) “fix”. The whole “comfort kills careers” meme is the tip of that iceberg.
