Even if that were the case, one perfect lifetime amongst an infinite amount of lives that, statistically, were primarily spent in abject ~~poverty~~ misery, is still an infinite amount of suffering.
Imagine living in severe pain for your whole life with the belief that all that suffering would be worth it for one second of absolute bliss. That's insane.
You must be a joy to be around IRL.
Oh, you're the psycho with the van that pees in a bottle, from the post you deleted earlier. Fuck, you were right. You are toxic as hell.
My goofy theory is that we are in a simulation, and we go through every life once. Round robin style. That way, when they end the simulation, no one can complain that they had a worse time than someone else. Everyone gets one go around as each person. One time you are the poor guy skinned alive by barbarians, and one time you are some rich billionaire with more money than brains. Then, when the simulation is over, who knows.
