Most then address their emotional debt by starting families and having children in whom to make emotional investments of their own. They make themselves emotionally solvent by creating emotional equity in another human being, who will in time come to realize the meaninglessness of his own life, but who will himself be indebted to his parents. Individuals thus satisfy their emotional debt by drawing down on the emotional debt of their children, who must then address their own emotional debts in turn. And the process repeats itself.

It may be Pareto optimal with respect to future generations to escape the continual process of debt repayment and painlessly destroy the human race.

and furthermore, research shows that life itself is the most efficient mechanism of dispersing heat, meaning life is a solution for thermodynamic efficiency...so genetics (and evolution itself) are most likely simply another way for the universe to achieve the lowest possible energy (all matter seeks to achieve the lowest possible energy level).

societies that don't adhere to these values are quickly outbred, overrun, and forced into the hills by those that do.

these values have nothing to do with truth and everything to do with self-perpetuation.

viewed in this light, culture and ideology are revealed as scams. when you adhere to them, they use you for their purposes. you are molded into a part to be used for the machinations of others.

I guess that's the way the whole durned human comedy keeps perpetuatin' itself down through the generations.

Westward the wagons, across the sands of time until we ... ah, look at me. I'm ramblin' again.

Letting the thought of the eventual end of humanity demoralize us would thus be a terrible mistake. It is in large part because many human lives have been flooded with self-standing goods that humanity is not a Ponzi scheme. The kind of value that properly calls forth joy is not something that waits to be validated by the collective life to come. As a consequence, we already live in a rich ecology of value that surrounds us here and now, no matter what happens in the future. Take a look and see: both the weaker and the stronger claim seem refuted by manifestly legitimate joy, which is one form, indeed a highly valuable form, of the recognition of value here, already, in our lives.

there's nothing inherently wrong with ponzi schemes. they're only A Bad Thing when you run out of capital. the ponzi scheme of the human condition is only A Bad Thing when children no longer can expect to live better lives than their parents (when you run out of new capital to pay off old debts)

and that's exactly what we're seeing today in the west - the ponzi scheme collapsing in real time as white people realize that for the first time in 1500 years, their quality of life will be worse than that of their ancestors
