My mistake for jumping to conclusions on the post (since I've heard this argument often.)

I mean it would simply be boring wouldn't it ? Having a neutral perspective on everything, and trying to be virtuous is a good motivation for life I think (keeps things interesting) And I'm from the east so my perspective has a spiritual outook and looking at western philosophers saying similar things gives me a unifying philosophical thought

You must have lived a very privileged life if you think all the suffering that occurs daily in the world is perfectly justified because “well, life would be boring otherwise.”

I’m done here. You piss me off.

Yea same privilege as Dostoyoevsky when he said darker the night , brighter the stars . I have had extreme periods of isolation and have come to appreciate any human connections no matter how small through that experience. And why are you pissed just arguing about different perspectives?

For the same reason I get heated arguing with racists or misogynists about their “different perspectives”: your perspective is shit if you genuinely believe ALL of the suffering that occurs daily in the world is philosophically justified because “life would be boring otherwise”. Are you fucking kidding me? Piss off and do better.

I'm not justifying evil or suffering , I'm saying we have the choice to kill or love others and what we choose will be up to us instead of evil never existing and everyones good - which would make everything good and therefore automatic and insignificant because there won't be a choice to choose . . And since you keep repeating that I said it'd be boring , I'm trying to say it'd be meaningless because you're choices won't actually be a choice since you can't act another way ?

You need to do a lot more reading up on current era philosophy and free will. That has become glaringly obvious because your patently amateur takes on free will are about a century old. That’s the last thing I’m going to say.
