Not that i support suicide, but wouldn't letting him do it be survival of the fittest at its prime?๐Ÿค”

"Survival of the fittest" is not a moral law. It's the scientific observation that, for populations of organisms that reproduce and make mistakes while reproducing, those mistakes that better fit the environment the organisms are in are more likely to be passed on, resulting in, generations later, those populations eventually adapting to better fit their environment. There's no obligation to consider and follow it as if handed down by a judge in the same way there's no obligation to consider and follow gravity when walking outside.

"Fittest" for what? For example, more educated people have a higher chance to suffer from a mental ilness. Do you think that humanity is better off if only idiots remain?

Blissfully ignorant is still blissful.

The other people instinctively want to save him because of kin selection. What you see in this picture is evolution at work.

I understand that, too. I was just curious how others thought of my thought pattern.
