This subreddit is for the debate of, comment on, or casual observance of the possibility that the reality we experience is actually a simulated one. "Like the Matix?" Yep. Like the Matrix.
You do it for someone or for “Yourself”. Yes? Not so fast. Stop right there, turn around, put your hands on your vehicle and show me those fundamental believes of yours, buddy...
I want it "only for myself"! I don’t want to do this not for anyone but for myself.
Ever heard this crap? Do you understand what it means? "I want just to keep on training and try to run 100m faster than 12 sec. just for myself, to know I can." Every sneaker advertisement is based on it. Just Do it. Why? You know why, for yourself! Just do it for yourself! Do it, motherfucker, whatever "it" takes. I don’t care you don’t know what is the right thing to do. Just do it, bitch. Today let’s discuss if you are able to "do something for yourself only" at all or it’s a distorted perception of reality? And actually, all you do, you do for yourself.
The answer is quick and simple: Whatever you do is done only in two ways: Actions you wanted and did them, same as reactions to the objective world in a personal framework of understanding it. Here we see that the "bottle neck" of our reality is very solipsistic. You can’t deny that you need to receive information using some of your 5 senses and only then you personally can confirm that something is happening. You can always predict what is happening but you can never be sure. Even to think about separate of your existence of the "objective world" when you are not thinking about it means processing it through your "bottle neck" of thermodynamical above quantum realm. To understand anything you need to process it through your brains. Without that process, everything is virtual. Not proved.
That objective world is partially not sensed by you; in fact, you sense only a little fragrance, and you can only keep some still memories of the whole story, because our consciousness is glued to Entropy. And all that world in your life moments that is not sensed will always remain in superposition as for you. It never happened in your life. Something didn’t happen. And that exact something might happen in the lives of other people.
And that would look like that story about something in particular might happen to you but actually happened to some other guy. But the story was the same. Like you were brave enough to speak to your future wife, and you got a good life story, and another guy in the same conditions didn’t find bravery to speak to the love of his life. It even might be the same girl! The story of "happy relationships" jumped from one character to another. And in quantum dramaturgy, stories do that a lot.
All that matters and differs is the exact set of stories that drive your personality forward. Even if some of your dreams are about "sacrificing" yourself in the name of your children or humanity, it is just a part of a feeling "right thing to do, just for myself. So I know I did it and I’m a good person." You know, just do it. And again see what is happening? You will feel good and happy only when you feel satisfied with the understanding (feedback from reality) that what you planned to do was done at some rate.
So all you do is always only for yourself. I suggest you never hide your real intentions behind this wall of "absolutely Buddha" state when you think you can just be a good person. That is worthy because after you get to some goals or you fail at something, you might feel abused like: "why is reality so cruel? I only wanted good for the world and it fucked me up like that." It’s because you might lie to yourself. You can want and make good things. But don’t deny it’s to feel better. And it’s okay. Nobody died or resurrected because of it. Though, claims were made.

And why is doing good for others a rewarding feeling? Why does selling a good product or service at a reasonable price feel better than simply taking even more from them through robbery. Robbery would be easier. Why does sex w/ a woman who wants to F u too seem like it's prolly better than rape? Prolly because cooperation and healthy relationships with other living beings is what brings us closer to God. And that claimant u speak of allegedly said "what's better than dying for your friends" at His last meal. Wonder how that wiring was installed in our genetic codes? I'm 39 too, owned a business for 7 years and money changes relationships w/ people. Workers, clients, other services hire to help upkeep your own... Everyone wants something from u and so do u. So u can relax on an infinity pool n drink watching a sunset? And dreading a phone ringing? No my friend. Capitalism should look more like a high five after an alley OOP, not a ball hog racking stats. Our system is the latter, or rather yours sound likes like the latter. You are not what u "own"
“Cooperation and healthy relationships with other people brings you closer to god” is just the poetic way you called the good feeling you get after you did something you thought to be right and a extra points for making it “creative” and not “depressing” like you said, stealing or making fair money might look the same but possible outcomes for you are different. And that’s why you prefer good way better. No need to make up and involve god in it. I do need to be a good Christian or anything else to do what I believe is right. And what I believe is right is based on logics and quantum simplification.

So many words just to say We Live In a Soyciety. Okay now get back to the bank office..
Thinking about so many words I got out of offices 15 years ago and now at 39 I own a group of companies making good business. So I have time and money for science now.
