Yeah, I don't get this at all. Does OP just... not have an imagination?

It is a reframing of a previous question asked on this sublemmy; the one about the clones.

I thought that my interpretation of that initial question would yield a far negative response, and indeed it did.

I mean yeah. It reads roughly like β€œYour life just got way worse. But you can think about it and pretend it’s better. Profit?”

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The other question framed it like "you've got an indeterminate number of clone slaves like you" and the responses were more mixed than here.

[–] TexMexBazooka@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I fail to see how the two questions are related tbh

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I'm asking from the perspective of the clone.

[–] Silentiea@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago

Excepting that, presumably, the clone's labor can still produce income. Not for the clone, obviously, since it said "slaves", but "you" would wind up making more money, not just splitting what you already have.
