In Plato's apology, Socrates is on trial for bullshit charges. He is able to just be exiled, and his friends offer to help bust him out of jail, but he refuses and is forced to drink hemlock and kill himself. He argues that people who fear death are retards, because you can't know what's going to happen. A lot of people just assume it will be bad. But it is very possible there will be a good outcome. Or a neutral outcome.
I think a big reason why people chose to rot instead of killing themselves is their irrational fear of dying. What's ironic is that in choosing to live they are actually dying, because we are all dying. Every life comes with a death sentence. I mean, have you ever seriously questioned your surrender to the notion that you have to stay alive?
The chances of getting the good ending when I die is infinitely greater than the chances of me ever ascending through years of brutal self improvement, which would just slowly kill me anyway. I've resolved that I am going to take my chances and die young rather than spend my life staying alive just for the sake of it, chasing a painfully mediocre existence trying to ascend with some ugly foid and betabux her. Worst case scenario, if I get the bad ending, I mean it's not like my life isn't already bad . And it is gonna happen eventually, no point in delaying it.
