Killing sadness just leaves us utterly empty.

[–] Vilian@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 hour ago

Wait, that make sense, depression is the lack of feeling, everyone dead, at least in my experience

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 hours ago

I mean...

Maybe anger would have, but he wasn't consistently specifically angry at sadness.
And maybe sadness would have killed herself, but she didn't.

It'd be out of character for any of the others to do it.

The point of the movie is that suppressing sadness is a bad thing

[–] Vilian@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

It's supression if it's dead?

[–] ZoopZeZoop@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

No, but the act of killing it is.

The kid would become a psychopath that never gets sad at anything and lacks empathy

They literally have a 'cease to exist' pit.

[–] chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 20 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, but Joy got out of it in like 5 minutes. If I know sadness, it'll float right out while eating my last cheez-it.

[–] Dasnap@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Break her kneecaps.

You can never know happiness, without knowing sadness.

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 28 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

That just sounds like philosopher dribble peddled to make sad people feel better.

You can very well know happiness without sadness. It's called ignorance and from what I've heard it's bliss.

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 hours ago

It's not about knowing. It's about appreciating.

[–] TrousersMcPants@lemmy.world 27 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Most the ignorant people I know are the most angry, miserable people I've ever met, so idk maybe that's bullshit too

[–] Vilian@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Are they ignorant or all their "knowledge" just revolve in being racist and an asshole?, a truly ignorant person would be like a toddler no? Without racism and such

[–] TrousersMcPants@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Being a toddler is traumatic! They have no knowledge of the world around them and it's frequently terrifying. Why do you think young children cry so much? Ignorance is scary.

What do we call this, an Appeal to Balance fallacy?
