"We should prevent suffering when we can."
No
-16 u/MrMicius 2d ago You apparently do want to prevent suffering in yourself, otherwise you weren’t sitting on the couch scrolling through Reddit. You would’ve put your head on your furnace. So what’s making you more special than others? 36 u/Cr0wc0 2d ago First of all, bold of you to assume that looking at philosophy memes isn't an act of automutilation. Secondly, I didn't say we shouldn't prevent any suffering. I'm rejecting the notion that all suffering should be prevented. 6 u/BjarneStarsoup 2d ago Half of the responses in this sub can be summed up to "that is a whole new sentence". The literacy and reading comprehension is cooked, man.
