There’s now a small chance that the next shooting is some singularity-craving bazinga with a greeble-laden AR-15 that believes they can’t get domed by the Secret Service because they believe in “quantum immortality” and will immediately teleport to a reality where they weren’t domed by the Secret Service. yud-rational

    even if the many-worlds hypothesis was correct, there’s currently no reason to believe that your consciousness in this universe would be contiguous with your consciousness in any other ‘adjacent’ universes. quantum immortality is about as convincing as pascal’s wager lol. get better at epistemological nihilism tech-ghouls your unhinged assumptions are hilariously obvious.
