The concept of Roko's Baslisk is personally a "meh."
The concept that an idea/thought can be damaging as a whole, and potentially show no benefit whatsoever, doing only harm as it spreads... that's terrible to think about, and my brain can only handle so much dissonance.
Also, I've heard someone list out why they attend church/label themselves as religous, and it was literally just Pascal's wager. Ugh.
I guess I'm just stuck being completely ok with death as a concept, and have to assume most people are horrified by it, by default. It's pretty awkward when someone mentions that human brains continue to function several seconds after decapitation, to be an edgelord, and my genuine fascination with the concept makes them uncomfortable. 😮💨
I kinda hate knowing that the end just feels like nothing though, to be honest. It's kinda disappointing. Sorry if that just ruined any death enjoyer or hell connoisseur's day. At least there's like... idk life or some shit before that part, I guess.
