Really, really bad idea. I am not (N-O-T) in favour of the kind of censorship that happened when the Post Of Which We May Not Speak was posted, for all sorts of reasons, but if you think you've found a piece of writing which may cause severe mental harm to others, the correct thing to do is to keep quiet about it, except for maybe warning others who don't see the risk and try to spread the link.
I don't share your assessment of the risk of this, but assuming you are right, any periods of depression and/or deaths that result are your personal fault.
Strongly agree with this. If you truly believe that a piece of text is harmful to those who read it, then you should also believe that it is immoral (under utilitarianism) to spread it to people who might be vulnerable.
My position is that nihilism is dangerous, but only to those who are stuck on the idea of a universal utility function, and don't have a personal utility function (or the idea of a personal utility function) to fill in the void when that idea is shown to be unworkable. So it certainly can be read safely, but there are non-optional prerequisi...
My various interweb browsings stumbled me upon a potential Cockatrice in written, philisophical form. I've thus far read through the first chapter, and it is less anti-rational than most philosophical writings.
I'm reading through it right now, and will provide my feedback when I'm done, likely as a front-page post.
Personally, I'm a Fatalist, with some sort of Weird Soldier Ethic, who plans to go out the same way that Hunter did (if the cops don't get me first), but I've got a bunch of nonsense to Write first. I figure that'll make me somewhat immune. That aside, I doubt it's a real cockatrice - or we would've heard about it before.
It is a strong exercise in Nihilism. So, with those cautions given, I offer it to you: an extensive suicide letter.
Tip of the hat to this guy.
