Aren't you the one who decided that autobliss feels pain? Or did you decide that it doesn't?

Autobliss has no grounding, no internal feedback, and no volition. By what definitions does it feel pain?

On the other hand, by what definitions do people not feel pain (other than by some fictitious what-if scenario solely designed to split logical and ethical hairs with ABSOLUTELY NO PHYSICAL BASIS for even starting to believe it).

Go back to happily playing with yourself in your nice little solipsistic world. You clearly aren't reliably attached to this one.

Wow!  You are one sick puppy, dude.  Personally, you have
just hit my "Do not bother debating with" list.

You can "decide" anything you like -- but that
doesn't make it true.
