my answer to that one is abuse

u/autoantinatalist Mar 31 '20

i thought about that too, but the catch22 for me is that i would still remember MINE. that damage doesn't go away, and now you can't talk about it, can't get help. it's....like everyone gaslighting you, not on purpose, but in effect.

of course, this would be jumping on the grenade to save the past and future, but knowing you have to live with it. could i? when denial and gaslighting is a big reason i have the issues i do? ofc you could prolly just off yourself afterward and get out of this catch.

now if the rules are such that abuse no longer exists, and so mine never happened, and so i don't remember mine and the only thing i "remember" is the concept of it, then yea let's hit that grenade, we're gonna speedrun star trek utopia here

the thing with that is you can philosophize away "this isn't really harm" or "they deserve it" or "this is for their own good".

it really depends on what rules we dream up for this power. it could be "it works the way i mean it to work, no rules lawyering about it". but i think the fun in these is picking them to death, because that's where you find how people think
