>>13985636>The point of life is to suffer and to make others suffer.No, de Maistre is simply describing the state of affairs. He's certainly not advocating that this is what life should be. It's merely what it is
It doesn't have to always be this way and probably won't always be this way. In thousands of years from now, if intelligent life still exists here, there's a decent chance the average frequency of suffering and death will, per capita, be far lower than it is today
