Are you mad?

Logic is arguably a kind of madness, thoughts that follow, compulsively tying causes to effects, attempting to impose a fundamentally consistent system on a fundamentally rational world a century after Gödel proved it absurd, and bernays drove a dagger into the heart of truth.
Talking to you really drives this home.

Why do I think I might be mad?
A quixotic commitment to logic and reason, proven impossible to complete a century ago, even after Edward Bernays and ivy lee thrust a dagger unto the heart of truth? All realities that interacting with you really drives home. Its mildly frustrating, but it does also make me question, in little ways, if all of this is mad, and even if we can do better, we shouldn’t, and I should just be trying to maximize harm at all times.
I also think you’re a total asshole completely scared to have basic compassion or humanity, but, like, That’s more disappointing than frustrating, and not wholly unexpected.
