Has Hollywood taught you idiots nothing???

Now we’re getting into territory for vigorous debate and arming ourselves toward moral outrage.

At what point are we subjecting our own flesh to the insanity of bit banging from conception until death?

Is this enslavement?

Do we care?

Lack of modern coherence demands a group search for Objective Morality. A line we will not let crossed: the sacrificing of those “innocent” for “power”. Anyone (now a person? Or do we call those “subjectives?”) who cannot say “no”, cannot “walk away or stand their ground”, and does not have an exclusive right to their own persons (embodiment) are having their “human” rights violated.

Or something like that.

We don't stop ourselves from exploiting and enslaving entire human beings for the sake of power, what makes you think we'd make an exception for brains in a jar?

Moral outrage, sure.

Lack of coherence has never been relevant to that.

> A line we will not let crossed: the sacrificing of those “innocent” for “power”.

I have bad news, you may wish to sit down and have some smelling salts to hand before reading world history.
