Would you push a button that would destroy the whole universe

[DarknessAndDespair]

Yes. Life doesn't need to exist, it doesn't solve any problem it didn't first create, its elimination can't be missed once its gone (meaning there will be no harm experienced the day after it's gone), given that the desire to live would end with it, and blowing up the universe will also ensure that prospective parents can't bring any new creation here to suffer, which is the real reason to press the button in my judgement.

Opposition to this course of action, as it was framed here, is, as far as I can ascertain, based on nothing but deontological morality, which is a pile of crap, because consequences are the only thing that matters, and the very reason rules even have meaning to begin with. And there would be absolutely no negative consequences to a universe devoid of life, regardless of how it became that way.

Absolutely. Totally agree

 

[RejectMetamorphosis]

it would involve no physical pain to anyone
After you press it nothing will ever matter anymore because nothing would ever exist

i would press it right now and be glad i would never have to suffer ever again

Nope! That would make animals cease to exist as well and I'm a huge animal lover, so fuck no!!

 

[LifeQuitter]

Yes

 

[Edpal247]

No. As others have said, some people like their life.

 

[Morte]

yes, i should. Sentience is a curse. Billions of happy people do not justify the billions of unhappy people who will be born and suffer horribly in the future and are probably suffering on other planets.

 

[EternalSummer]

You should rephrase it as" would you kill every single living creature in the universe so you could relieve your own pain?". That's some school shooter philosophy right here.

 

[kinderbueno]

No because most people in this world are happy with their lives so ending their lives would be cruel. There are also lots of people who wanna get better so it'd be cruel to remove their chance to heal

 

[LunarLight]

Certainly not. Just because you don't like living doesn't mean you should erase all life in the universe, even the lives worth living (I.e., without a brain fucked up by PTSD and depression).

 

[lostintheloop]

No. Why would I ? When I ctb the universe ends for me. What others do is up to them. I don't agree all life is bad. The majority of people in the world want to live, then a minority would want to live but life feels too painful and a smaller minority just don't want life at all. I don't want to end anyones life but my own, even if others are unhappy. But like I say, the majority of people enjoy life despite their ups and downs. Why do you think health and fitness, wellness, medical industries etc. make so much money ? Most people will do whatever it takes to avoid death and to live into old age. Most people get something out of life and enjoy it. So many people with slim chances of survival will fight as hard as they can to survive.

What if I were to press it without reading the sign saying what it would do like Rance did in Rance 4~? :333 Teehee~
