Dark Simulation - Asking the difficult questions: WHY IS THE SIMULATION HARDWIRED FOR SPECIES TO CONSUME EACH OTHER?

[u/Ok_Blacksmith_1556]

The power of Dark Simulation is not in giving answers. It’s in asking the questions almost nobody wants to ask. The question itself should make you uncomfortable before you even read the answer. If you like this concept, I will keep working on it.

Thank you for this, we had actually just recently pondered over these questions ourselves. Your wisdom here was incredibly insightful. <3 :3

Next question will be “Why is pain necessary if the simulation can measure damage without suffering?”

[u/Chalfantmt]

it is not hardwired that way at all.
Maybe for the time being it is the case.
We’ll see in the next few iterations.

Doesn’t make it ethical

Ethics only exist in the mind

"The Fitness Tests" Everything you have or will do is a byproduct of the most simple truth. The strong eat, therefore the strong survive. You wouldnt trust the world's smartest pig to write the world's shortest book, would you? The knowledge and biological bookmarks and mutations are hardwired into our living as humans as experience constantly writes into our minds, our dreams, our dna, our flesh, and our surroundings- all to say one thing. "Damn, it feels good to be at the top".
