not to sound like an edgelord but suffering is a big reason for the existence of consciousness. "You" essentially exist in order to decide on which signals to send to your muscles, for instance ignoring the part of your brain screaming at you to stop and end the pain when you are 8 reps into a 10 rep squat routine. If there was no conflict between different parts of your brain and you didn't have to endure the suffering this creates there would be no reason for "you" as a conscious entity to exist.

At least maybe, it could work some other way but this one is fairly likely. Even if it's true I wouldn't say a great reduction of suffering is impossible, we arent exactly optimized for this existence (but the question then becomes what degree of optimization would strip us of what is human).

i doubt it, we have drugs/ some meds right now, but in my opinion human suffering is necessary for human beings, man evolves mentally / physically and even spiritually you could say through suffering and pain, a boy becomes a man after losing his father / mother and begins to realize that he has to do almost everything on his own without anyone guiding him, he will make mistakes, cry, rage, scream at heavens and ask why he suffer so much , but the answer may never come

No unfortunately the world is still run by mega corporations who control every facet of society especially soience, rich elites still traffic children around the world and now in some countries it's been confirmed that you will have less rights than others if you don't get vaccinated for covid 19 so to put it bluntly you are already living in a Blade Runner furture minus the neon cities.

You're the first person other than myself that I've seen with Pure O in a long time. It sucks huh... Mindfulness has helped me a ton as cliche as it sounds. I've been going to a therapist and most of the stuff she says is stuff I've already heard of. However, the difference with the therapist is it ives me accountability which results in me actually doing what she tells me rather than just reading something online then saying "yeah I'll try that next time". You can't control the intrusive thoughts/obsessions but you can control your reaction to them.
With Pure O, the hardest part is distinguishing between obsession and compulsion. First, identify the obsession. Then, identify the compulsion that you automatically want to perform in order to feel better. From there you can focus on breaking the pattern via mindfulness and when the obsessions come up, you'll be able to just easily let them pass and go back to normal. It's a really long and hard process if it's bad but it does work. You can 100% get better eventually. I promise

The only cure for suffering is to not exist anymore. When a biological organism (as we understand them) is born, they immediately begin suffering as their physiology fights to maintain homeostasis.
If death is the only cure for suffering, and everyone is suffering, then it is at least semi-reasonable to say that genocide is the most morally responsibleq act that one can undertake (assuming that you do not cause
excessive suffering in the process). Eliminating a person's suffering for the rest of eternity is pretty righteous if you ask me.
