Description

Here’s a transcription of the comic text:

Panel 1: Person 1: "DO YOU THINK OTHER PEOPLE HAVE REAL FEELINGS? REAL DESIRE, AND HOPES? COMPLEX INTERNAL WORLDS?" Person 2: "GOD, I HOPE NOT."

Panel 2: Person 1: "CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT? THAT THERE ARE BILLIONS, BILLIONS OF HUMANS? THAT EACH TIME ONE DIES THEY TAKE A WHOLE VISION OF THE COSMOS DOWN WITH THEM?"

Panel 3: Person 2: "NAH. NO WAY. THAT'S NOT REALISM. THAT'S FAITH IN AN EVIL DEITY."

Panel 4: Person 1: "SO… YOU THINK I AM…"

Panel 5: Person 2: "A SPECIAL KIND OF ROBOT THAT I CAN USE FOR NOURISHMENT IN EXTREMIS."
