1047,3,14,2016 don't look down, all the right moves, onerepublic Empathy is logical-why do we invest our empathy, why have we, for ages, in animals, celestial bodies, trees, rocks, and idols- yet we totally disregard our closest relatives? We obsess over discovery of alike life in deep space or deep waters, but never look twice at characters. can't stop- onerepublic Going back to my first ever blue notebook rants, the least known thing in the multiverse is the human sentience, consciousness, mind, soul. And yet, even young children can create characters that can fool us. Several experiences in the digital age have tested our ability to tell between human people, and this mental other. We can only prove that our world and others in it exist because we collectively agree that we do. A lone person drifting in space can not prove that they exist. Companionship is the only way to validate eachother as living people. But comradery can be faked. Everything can be simulated. So, our collective existence is a trust exercise. If it is all based on necessity and arbitrary decisions, why stop there? Why do we avoid extending this club membership? Activists plead to include animals, believers turn to the stars, how does nobody look to the theoretical? Our siblings thar have existed for as long as our imaginations have. Characters are our closest relatives and have always been here, and what credit do these souls get? Terminator syndrome. Mental health stamps. Siri. Violent pornographic material. Rule 34. Children's stories. Game of thrones. People touch the brim of character empathy, people break down and cry for them, or root for them, but don't validate them. It stops there. We can prove that characters can do all we can in behavioral situations, yet we still shroud them in media-black locks. We need to have opening arms for the first human-brain AI, or foe what awaits us in the world if VR. Or risk fighting the monsters we make them believe they are. It's all arbitrary, why not be inclusive....I can be the only one to take it this far... Infinite up infinite down counting stars We say that written worlds aren't real. They are free for us to fuck with, without remorse or repercussion. no reprimand. Yet it is highly plausible that our world is simulated. Empathy is logical to self preservation, that's whay separates me from other sociopaths. I believe, I have logically proven that being violent to someone validates someone being violent at you. Refrain from being a dick, and you thus defend your claim that others shouldn't be dicks. Which means ppl are less likely to be a dick to you. It's not that hard to understand, goodness can protect you without lies or deceit. So if you abuse your world and characters for only your amusement, or to have their lives fit into what your society considers a good story, you validate someone doing that to you. If our world were simulated, specifically you, your actions validate the actions of your writer, and your character. So, being pure in your position means you are not jeopardizing your world. See? this goes up infinitely, their world could be simulated, and the world you write could simulate a world. Imagine a writer writing a story about a writer writing a story about a writer writing a story about a writer writing a story about a It's infinite up and infinite down. Impossible to v rank because the name value of worlds is above both hours and your creator's world. YOU. ARE. EQUAL. (preacher came on, hilarious) Any god could be created by another. their creations and their creations creations are all equal to them. This puts a god's role into that of more of a parent than any biblical story could claim it was. More of a parent than any of our parents could ever be unless they were progressive beyond their years. (if I lose myself) Because this parent would be devoted to protecting their children in desperate love, equal love. Knowing that they could very well rise up as gods of another world, and that your live would pass on for infinite generations. To shield them from arrogance that could disrupt the unity of love, infinite up, infinite down. -PattPlays
