I do agree with the Transhumanists' general idea: better living through radical technological self improvement. However I don't like the bunch of people they are - plenty of sociopaths, and inferiority-complex mother****ers.

Excessive, runaway empathy is a handicap rather than an asset, and is by no means to be envied or admired."You are one of the cheerleaders for this wasting of time and the wasting of lives. Do you feel any remorse for having contributed to this "culture of death?" Of course not. Hey, let's all play MORE games, and ignore all the really productive things to do with our lives.
Let's pretend to be shocked that a gamer might descend into deeper depression, as his gamer "buds," knowing he was killing himself, couldn't figure out how to call 911 themselves for him. That would have involved leaving their computers I guess."

That line is a lot more impressive in its boorishness if you include their quoting of Stalin's famous "million deaths" line approvingly beforehand. Though they do tastefully refer to him as a "well-known Soviet statesman" rather than by name. And they separately quote Hitler, using the same gloss, as noted by Az. Only Hitler's quote is used to explain how they aren't endorsing cowardice. Cowardice is "uncool" because Hitler said so. Don't you love it?Comment

I like the word "but". It means ignore everything before this word.He's got the Midas touch.

Seriously, it seems to me that high quality medical treatment becomes rather more expensive than cheaper like for example consumer electronics (and even there top class stuff isn't exactly cheap).Originally posted by Az
