Yes, but only in a theoretical sense.

i'm not that utilitarian + collectivist.

Also if i'm suffering so much I can always kick bucket.
But I dont care about the suffering of normies and foids. only about myself and fellow incels

I agree with their perspective on life since it's logical but I only care about myself. I don't care what happens to others.

Life is brutal and creates pointless suffering for the unfortunate, those who deny it are not seeing the bigger picture. This is the reason why I sometimes feel out of place here too and I hesitated before I joined the forum.

Life eats itself, evolves and replicates in brutal ways, there is nothing else beyond that goal.

Life should be a dream

elaborate?

I mean that I agree with the core reasoning, which is that sentient life inherently involves unavoidable suffering and that non-existence would, in principle, prevent it, in the usual proposition:

---

[1] the presence of suffering is harmful.

[2] the absence of pleasure isn't.

[3] the absence of anything is neutral—neither good, nor bad.

[4] therefore, neutrality is preferable over the possibility of suffering, for there is nothing inherently harmful about nonexistence.

---

But I don’t actively advocate for ending life in practice. My stance is more a philosophical conclusion than a call to immediate action, because it isn't pragmatic, and it often leads to half-measures that bring more suffering than good to living beings (this includes many of the measures for preventing life).
