I guess you think there's some kind of slim margin between admitting there's a removal of capacity to care when you're dead, and believing you are god and everyone around you is a figment of your imaginationthose two things are so similar, pretty much indistinct

The head architect for an ambitious bridge project just died. I guess we should just stop building the bridge.
I know for a FACT that my family would be traumatized if she found my body riddled with bullets in my room--but let's go with that method anyway, because nothing matters!What a fucking joke.
Before you die, you can know that you won't be able to feel relief or remorse about the circumstances of your death, but act in a certain way to shield those who live on anyway, or you can not do that and let those who live on have a hard time when you're dead. One is obviously the "good" option.

The fact that you had to use more than one bullet proves you suck at killing yourself.
Regardless, are you going to feel pain, regret, sadness, ect. after you die? It doesn't matter because you'll no longer have sapience to process it.

Does that mean it's not immoral? No, I never claimed anything of the sort. I'm just talking about the point of view of the mind. If you're the type of person who does care, and is concerned with others after death, then you'll make preparations around that before you die.

It would be selfish to not take into account the reactions of other people if you made the decision to kill yourself- I was getting the impression you were arguing it wasn't selfish, and that there was nothing wrong with it just because "Well, I'm dead, so who cares?" I'm sorry if I misunderstood you.

I would want to know hat my mother wasn't the one who had to discover my body. That's what I would want. I'm just stating facts.
No, it's not a contradiction. I wasn't saying that to "prove" that your desire in your last seconds of life to protect your family didn't matter, I was saying that to explain my point that after you died, it wouldn't matter to you. This isn't hard.

This isn't hard.The only things that matter to me are the things that matter period. So yes, it would still matter.You can't say "this isn't hard" when you're the one tripping over such basic concepts.
But that's not what I'm talking about.
