Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

You don't, aside from like perhaps a handful of those you might've met IRL (if you have friends, that is).
Even then, how do you even know that other minds exist?
They seem to be sentient, sapient, and conscious, I mean they have to be, right? Same species and all...
But what if they're not. What if they're all just robots?
Or Simulated? Or just a figment of your imagination?
Maybe nothing exists. Maybe there is no meaning.
Perhaps, the true meaning of life is nihilism.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk, goodbye, and Class Dismissed.
You're going to ruin OP's day, hahahaha
This is the kind of thinking that leads people to psychotic breaks and shooting up a mall because the robots looked at them funny lol
