Some Moral Definitions
Someone: An agent, conscious/moral being
Everyone: All conceivable agents in this Everett-Branch
Experience: Qualia
Imbalance: Asymmetrie
Life Worth Living
Someone is dying and you ask them:
Did you experience anything that made your life not worth living❓
If this someone is honestly answering "No." then this was a life worth living.
Life Worth Creating
Someone is living and you ask them:
Are your experiences getting better through your own actions❓
If this someone is honestly answering "Yes." then this is a life worth creating.
Satisficer
Someone who checks off boxes, in a yes and no way.
Maximizer
Someone who strives for more.
Antinatalism
To a Satisficer Lifes Worth Living have a certain imbalance: it is very easy to experience things that makes life not worth not living. But it doesn't add anything if you experience something else, all that matters is the "Yes." or "No." in the end.
Agentisim
If someone is created and experiences something that would make the life not worth living, this someone can still create a lot of experiences that change this fact. So to a Maximizer all that matters is that the someone can actually influence their experiences - and doesn't die prematurely.
Morality
