> Sounds strange I know.

There is nothing strange about that, unfortunately. It's just how people work. Things like this are also why I sincerely hope that humanity eventually dies off and is replaced by literally any species, natural or artificial, that bases decisions on logic and facts.

There is no such thing as a meritocracy when humans are involved, no matter how much we delude ourselves to believe otherwise.

The problem with that is logic doesn’t provide goals, priorities or motivation to achieve them.

I was thinking about this recently while watching Raised By Wolves. The Androids express feelings and emotions, but this isn’t necessarily unrealistic. That could be a useful way to encode goals and evaluate priorities.

I didn't describe my logic, so to which logic are you referring? I made some statements which I believe to be true.

You're just contributing to my beliefs that humanity is entirely worthless.

I'm sorry you took offense, I didn't mean to be rude. I'm just making a point about logic in general, not "your logic" whatever you mean by that. Fundamental drives and goals are necessarily axiomatic and so cannot be derived logically. Intermediate goals yes, but not base drives and objectives.

[naikrovek]

My "logic" is this: humanity continually makes decisions collectively which harm humanity collectively. We are into self-harm in a major way, and almost no one cares. Those who do care are effectively shunned by others because more money is made by ignoring them and marginalizing their views.

Humanity is a self-destructive mess and deserves to go extinct.

Thanks for the advice that wasn't requested and isn't appreciated. Also, we aren't pals.
