After some use (assuming no preparation or protective coverings), that will probably look like a shit post.

They would fall fast. What would the threat of death mean to a revolutionary? You will fall, and I will see it with my own eyes.

This is why reincarnation would come to be. It would then be spun in a way that would be beneficial for people. You can buy that house with a 250 year, 3 lives mortgage!

MashedTech ,

It is I the trillionaire eu keeps accruing wealth past his 250 lives.

Not really the buttplug type. However, I grew up in a college town where half the campus buildings were brutalist, so it still speaks to me.

Imgonnatrythis ,

For $24 extra you can have your college logo engraved on the base.

SinningStromgald , to lemmyshitpost in brutal

Now that is a structurally sound butt plug. Just the kind of thing I’ve been looking for.

Fixbeat ,

I hope they didn’t skimp on the rebar.

balancedchaos ,

Nah. That’s what gives it that delicious weight.

Glemek ,

They skipped it entirely, because this is intended to be MRI safe.

I miss Altered Carbon. So much.

VoterFrog ,

Too bad it was only one season long.

Smeagol666 ,

There were two seasons, but there were three books.

lolcatnip ,

No, I distinctly remember there being only one season.

RealFknNito ,
@RealFknNito@lemmy.world avatar

The second season had Idris Alba. I don’t know if you’re doing a bit like “There’s no season 9 of scrubs” but there’s definitely a season 2 of altered carbon and it slaps.

AnyOldName3 ,
@AnyOldName3@lemmy.world avatar

It was Anthony Mackie and it wasn’t good, at least not in comparison to the first season.

RealFknNito ,
@RealFknNito@lemmy.world avatar

Shit, you’re right. I have no idea how I mixed those two up. And honestly I think it was a bit better personally, they went all out on budget and it was apparently the reason Netflix dropped them.

kibiz0r , to lemmyshitpost in Altered Carbon

Yeah, but it could also fix some things regarding racism, sexism, ableism, trans issues, immigration, geographic disadvantages etc. Maybe climate change?

Death_Equity ,

Suicide would be an epidemic.

nailbar ,

Everyone will reroll for better stats

Chekhovs_Gun ,

Pretty sure that would result in negative karma, and thus the new reincarnated form would be even less desirable.

Death_Equity ,

There was no indication that karma or any such system was included, you included that into the scenario and it is therefore invalid.

There would be people racing to get to the simplest organism incapable of sentience if there were a karmic system.

Chekhovs_Gun ,

That’s what the basis of reincarnation is about though… karma. You do good deeds, your karma level goes up, you get a better reincarnated life in the future. Likewise, the opposite is true as well.

Death_Equity ,

Karma is an aspect of the Hindu and Buddhist reincarnation beliefs. They do not have sole ownership of the concept of reincarnation.

If they had said “What if Hinduism is right and reincarnation is real?” then that would be a different scenario. They only put forth that the concept of reincarnation was real.

Chekhovs_Gun ,

Ah I see what you mean now. Eh, regardless I’m sure the universe would have some sort of similar karmic system in place to prevent thatt suicidal loop hole.

AnyOldName3 ,
@AnyOldName3@lemmy.world avatar

There’s no secular reason to think that the universe would care, or that a universe capable of caring would see it as a problem.

bob_lemon ,

The word “desirable” in the context of human-only reincarnation opens a whole other can of worms

lolcatnip ,

Depends on what version of reincarnation we’re talking about.

root_beer ,

Like what, a paramecium or baker’s yeast or something? At least I can’t have a collection agency coming after me then

drislands ,

Optimistic of you to think people wouldn’t use it as an excuse to be even MORE discriminatory. There would be Ultra-Whites who could claim they were never non-white in the past X years, with seniority by how far back they can trace their reincarnated whiteness. And of course there would be new religions claiming that if you follow them you’ll be reincarnated into the race/environment of your choice.

duffman ,

Odds are you aren’t going to be reincarnated as a white person though. Seems like they would cut the shit out the first time they are reincarnated as something different.

kibiz0r ,

Maybe. I just thought it was an interesting opportunity to put the “veil of ignorance” to the test.

@d0ct0r0nline@lemmy.world avatar

Joke’s on them: can’t get blood from a turnip, which is what I figure I’ll be reincarnated as with my Karma.

And the government would make sure you paid taxes for every dollar moving between incarnations.

MashedTech ,

Hey, you have paid taxes in your first life! The IRS department of past life tax recovery is awaiting your presence

Arthur_Leywin , to lemmyshitpost in Altered Carbon

That’s actually a horrible thought… The idea that even after death, you’re still going to get fucked. But luckily everything will eventually be gone… surely. X_x

Good luck trying to get money from a Galapagos tortoise! Reincarnating as a long lived and endangered (?) species, the new gamble!

I read this as “coroner” the first time, and it worked.

    I don’t know, the Sikhs and chiller Buddhists seem to have it figured out. Jains seem pretty on point too until you get to the sexism.
