The universe will one day kill us, unless we kill ourselves.
But we’ve known this for a long time.
Asteroids impacts, the death of the sun, the heat death of the universe. As far as we know there’s just no way to escape it.

Why would you self-sabotage the spaceship you are in?

You know what, that part I kinda guessed.
Not sure what tipped me of, maybe the fact that he literally wrote “Don’t look up” in the comment, but it’s hard to know for sure.

How do you define “you” if not for your distinct body, your distinct conscious experience?
Do you experience any of these copies? No. Then even assuming they exist they are not you, only copies. Similar yes, but distinct in every way that matters.
If you disagree you have to define clearly what you mean by “you”.

But that’s exactly my point.
A copy of you is not you, no matter got how good the copy is.
The_Fredrik t1_j7vckig wrote
Zero.
It might be a copy of you, but it won’t be you since “you” is product of your conscience.
You are not conscious in any a way of any alternative you, meaning they are not you, in an meaningful way of the word.
It be freaking sweet to meet a true doppelgänger though.

You’re not going to save the future by discussing this with your family, it’s even extremely unlikely that you’ll change anyone’s opinion because, well, family.
Keep the family peace, discuss this stuff with friends instead.

No, it’s a physiological difference in the structure of the eye.
The brain just fills in the gaps, just like it does with the blind spot.

Dude, you are the one not giving straight answer, not the other guy.
The other guy seems sane, you.. do not. Or rather, you come across as a bitter kid who thinks he’s smarter than he is. Doesn’t mean you are, but that’s what you act like.
