Then, even though there wasn't a clone, Janeway was in the right.
100% she was perfectly justified.
As far as killing a sentient being - I'm not sure a sedated existence counts as an existence much less a sentient one.
No, that is not the argument and has never been the argument.
We simply disagree on this. The argument is exactly whether or not the life of Tuvix is worth the cost of two lives... sure other arguments are presented as with any dilemma but it boils down to the value of the two crew mates. Janeway absolutely has every right to ensure the lives of her crew. So while it was addressed directly in the episode it was one of the weaker dilemmas of the show. As captiaiher priority is always her crew, Tuvix was not her crew. I am not sure why you seem to disagree but we will have to end it there.
Yeah, we will have to end it there because you're just ignoring half of what I'm saying and ignoring the episode itself.
I disagree because you're just objectively wrong. The literal argument made in the episode is that what Janeway is doing is wrong. It has nothing to do with wiping out his unique experience. It's the fact that he doesn't want to die. That's the literal words he uses. "I don't want to die." Both Tuvix and Kes talk to Janeway about whether or not he should die. It has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not a version of him will continue to exist.
Take care, wish you the best, but I am beyond done.
I never said it was about wiping out his own uniquely existence. And I didn't ignore half of what you said I agree with most of it and didn't feel the need to repeatedly agree.
If I'm so objectively wrong then you're very much just as wrong since we agreed so much. Heck I even agree it's his desire to live that would convince him to consent, because he does in my scenario.
It almost like your wanted to argue. You need to relax it's a show meant to be enjoyed. I simply made the case that a new avenue was available and it could have opened the doors to more. I get you disagree. But no reason to be upset.
I don't think I'll be crossing paths with you again, this reminded me too much of reddit so I'll be leaving this server. Thank you.
