>>9046011>>9046019Okay, that makes sense. Or maybe not, because I can't see how anyone would want to emulate Rick. First, because you have to be the greatest goddamned genius on the planet. And if you were, then you wouldn't want to or need to aspire to be like a character from a "stoner" cartoon.
Second, because in the couple of episodes I've seen, It's apparent that Rick is a very unhappy person. When multiverse theory exists, you've essentially lived & done everything in infinite timelines & universes, then what else is there to do? It's the bottom of the nihilism spiral that even death can't cure because infinite copies of you is going to live on in another multiverse. Just like an infinite copy of you is already dead from infinite ways to die. It's mind bogging horrifying and not fun in the least.
And personally what frustrates me is the hard atheistic stance the show has. In a multiverse, there's bound to be gods, both the good New Testament type and the horrible WH40k type. And by reason, one of these multiverse of gods would have the divine power to knock this multiverse nonsense off, or at least control it. So by rights, multiverse and atheism are inherently paradoxical, at least by R&M's own set of standards.
But to be fair, I don't have a high enough IQ to understand Rick & Morty.
