That's exactly what it is, and that's exactly why immortality is so appealing to moderns - a sick people whose sense of purpose is informed by hedonism and mass media, a people who are more concerned with consuming pleasurable experiences and doing what their state-corporate media god deems noble, rather than serve their children, the wisdom & legacy of their ancestors, or God.
- Loughla 2y agoOh stop. The quest for immortality is as old as human culture. Every generation has tried. Whether it's through magic or pseudoscience or today's actual science. I think it's a natural state for an individual to want to remain existing. Otherwise we would all kill ourselves young.
- kiba 2y agoFar from it. The media and culture rationalize death and death inducing behaviors including sleep deprivation, getting drunk, working and sacrificing one's health for the grind, and hedonistic behaviors that ultimately reduce one's lifespan, health, and quality of life.
