Hey, this is a systemic issue, not an individual one. If someone wants to use AI for their own project then I think they should be empowered to do so.

That’s irrelevant to whether or not OP deserved compassion or support. That’s my point, not that they shouldn’t ban people for things like that.

the OP literally included executive function in the post why are you telling them to do their dishes like it’s some sort of easy feat, read up on executive dysfunction you libs

Ok hold up, this is Ferris, which is commonly associated with trans circles and admittedly general weeb circles, but there’s no guarantee this person is a porn addict.

And even if they were, that’s a fucking weird insult to use. Sus as hell, if I may say.

I literally looked this up beforehand and knew it was ferris but still left that mistake in :debord-tired:

Either way I meant Ferris and Ferris is the person common in those circles

Anyway, this has turned into a thesis, and I’ll just say that I personally liked Mad God because I thought it displayed a depth of imagination that was nearly without bottom – yes, it was dark, and loosely plotted to say the least, but I felt I understood the philosophical message of it, which I wrote about in a comment on your previous post.

Ok, but this is partially my point. I disagree with the only philosophical message that “gorefest without plot” can give- “life is meaningless suffering, and we should end it”. That message is inherently counterrevolutionary. Sure, you can argue that Ligotti never meant to imply that killing people was ok, but there’s no grounded philosophical reason not to simply kill everyone under the framework of the movie itself, or at minimum yourself. The only reasons not to do that are purely deontological, and at that point you have to ask yourself what gives you the right to dismiss the deontological principles that led people to believe life is good in the first place. There is no “deontology wizard” that says that the principle to lessen suffering matters more than the principle to maintain life.

Anti-natalism can function as a philosophical framework, but horror CANNOT give the nuance required for that.

It’s disgusting and sad that you and other people consider this philosophy deep or meaningful. Like all nihilism, you can just ignore. It’s meaningless by nature, a perversion of art and philosophy. Slasher films for entertainment are actually the good kind of dark horror

I’m really sorry. I have no excuses for what I said. I apologize but I know I can’t really do anything to make it up to you because I’m just a stranger online. I hope you have a good day
