I am a hermit, a loner, but I don't live in a cabin in the woods. I have a job and I have bills to pay. I need to live in the modern world. I am a modern hermit. More and more, people are waking up to the benefits of isolation and solitude. Human interaction is a burden, and humanity is naturally corrupt and oppressive, which necessitates isolation. Greed, exploitation and hierarchy are all around us. Many are finding that it is beneficial to isolate themselves from humanity to ensure their own survival and sanity. A life alone can be very fulfilling and freeing.

Moral nihilism, antinatalism and the minimisation of suffering
This podcast is about moral nihilism, the idea that there is no right or wrong, which gives rise to the "might makes right" principle. As a result, we see perceived injustices or atrocities in the world e.g. child sex trafficking. Antinatalism is presented as one of the solutions to the suffering of sentient beings caused by moral nihilism. Of course, antinatalism, although it prevents future generations suffering and imposing suffering on others, doesn't address the harm caused by those already alive. As such, those who dislike suffering who are already alive should seek to minimise the harm they impose on others. This means e.g. not engaging in rape, murder and going vegan.
