Yeah education and prevention were always the best measure against addictions. But when it's something deeply ingrained in society it takes time to move on. I like to think society is it's own living thing, evolving much slower.

Everyone has the option to stop their lifes if wish be.

Most don't not just from some technicalities but because parents or otherwise we have a biological urge to consent to being alive and make live being.

The consent is from our nature and only extreme circumstances makes it otherwise.

In Marx's own idea the point were class warfare is no more is when our civilization can satisfy any needs of anyone.

It would be the ultimate goal of communism, perfect equity through infinite automation of all resources.

Then they would only be art, philosophy, science and social activities.

Except, as long as there's limited resources, fighting for it is our nature. To the point of having to much if may be.

I get that.

I'm only 25 so I don't have much responsibilities to hide behind and feel adult. Not that i'd like them, I kinda have a fear of them, sometimes.

Although, being a young adult, I especially get this feeling alongside feeling lost.

When your an adult there isn't anything guiding you, so like the child without guidance you're lost. It's then you see life's pointlessness, because the only point of living were always the arbitrary goals others gave.

In that regard responsibilities are also outside goals that guide you.

In a more joyful note, I don't even know why fun should be childish but it's amazing to be at all age.

Those two facts alone are what makes me think of how similar I still am to the child me.

Just as a reminder, seeing is sometimes not enough, there are some handicaps that are invisible.

But again if you're polite, asking never hurts.

Even when it's someone who shouldn't have took the seat, i think being nice better incentive the good behavior anyway.

Based off science the notion of self itself is a mere illusion. Wich probably is cause to the one of free will.

As for the causal nature of the universe, it's one of the strong hypothesis, but we don't have a definite proof for it.

You could lock your doors, but then again next thing you know you find your cat watching locksmith lawyer and clawing its way in.

Damn, I was born in the countryside so the cats I grew up with were all so much more savages.

I've seen one of my cat eat the whole mouse in front of me once, it was quite surprising how easily it was gone, nothing left.

What do you mean by population crisis?

In the world it's the other way around, the demographics are still booming.

You know what came before having better birth control and lower birth rates in most developed countries, medicine and lower death rate. In most of them now both are pretty close (most because there are exceptions like Japan).

I'm not really sure i see a problem with a slight decrease in population in a place where there is already a lot of people.

Well depends what you mean by birth control... is it a way to prevent pregnancy or children?

Since birth is in the name i'd say the term is better suited for referring to anything preventing the birth of a children. But what the term refers to has no barring on what's happening.

It never meant people don't make a difference. Any reasonable women knows and feel the difference.

The fact it's less safe and has worse effects on your health is just another way we realize how serious an abortion is. It will never be inconsequential even if it was safe.

Please do not trust anyone who says people disagree with this. They all have a political reason to lie.

Exactly sometimes genuine idiots are so much better than bad faith and manipulative arguments.

I loved to argue with flat earthers for instance. It really brought me to rethink about my knowledge, even learning new proofs i wasn't familiar about. Honestly if I ever have to explain it to my kids, i'd now feel much more confident thanks to them.
