Self Interest and Solipsistic Equality

Damn TFM, you got a fanboy licking the sweat off your nuts. Can't believe someone has so much time to post a rant responce to literally every comment on here. Not only that, but make their name about you. The salt from your sack must be delicious, cause he is all over your nuts mate.

Just a thought: Perhaps the failure of this thought experiment is in the framing. By requiring the theoretical disembodied intelligence to focus on that which cannot be controlled by the individual (i.e. what kind of world do you want to live in?), it fails to ask the intelligence to focus on that which can be controlled (i.e. who am I? what do I want?).
Here is a modified thought experiment:
Imagine yourself to be a disembodied intelligence, not yet born, and have no idea what kind of world you will be born into. Now, further stipulate that you will be born human, and that all humans have certain common characteristics (i.e. bipedal, sexually dimorphic, large relative cranial capacity, etc.). However, you do not know to what level each of these common characteristics will manifest at birth (i.e. short v tall, male v female, moronic v genius, etc). What common characteristics would give yourself the greatest chance of success in life? How would you focus on these selected characteristics?
Admittedly it is rough... and I welcome a discussion.

It is in my self interest to live in an advanced society. A meritocratic society appears to be the most effective way to create and sustain an advanced society. A society based upon the principle of equality is the opposite to a society based upon the principle of merit. So it is in my self interest to promote the concept of a merit based society even though this is the opposite of the current accepted societial paradigm.

So every act is a selfish one , thanks for the upload.

Life is unfair and idealism never survives full contact with reality. That's life.
