Being given an anesthetic that should put you out for an operation but only immobilizes you and you remain cognizant thru out the operation feeling everything being done.
Kinda happened to me in middle school when I broke my arm and they gave me anesthetics to knock me out so they could re-set my ulna and radius but half way thru i wake up to my arm in 5 Chinese finger trap-like device to hold my arm up and a strap across my bicep with weights on it weighing my arm down and 2 doctor's trying to push my bones back in line.

Glad to know I'm not alone. Surely there's something behind the veil, right? Right?
Maybe (I believe so, ofc, peep the username
), but you can't "know" (and yes, I understand epistemologically "objective truths" are at least somewhat unreachable but if I don't hold the apple whilst on Earth it will inevitably fall), you just have to take it on faith.

The normalisation of genocide, pantopicon surveillance, neoliberal fascism.
The moral framework of the West turning out to be meaningless propaganda.
The silver lining to this is that at least more and more people can see it for what it is, and the possibility for change increases, right? Right?!

Damn. I'm deathly scared of the opposite. General anesthetic. I have the worst memory of being put to sleep forcefully, like I was dying. I'd rather stay awake

Liquid shit.
Especially if it's sentient. And flying.

I think shit that is too-solid is scarier. At least with liquid I can resign myself to the throne.

In terms of anything that does not include something related to death or torture its probably having an operation on your eye while being conscious. I know someone who had to get surgery on his eye and could see while two doctors were doing stuff on his eye. Even just hearing this scared the living shit out of me.

Homeless in the gutter on a cold night, shivering so hard it hurts like needles, wondering hoping to find the threshold of death in the hopeless misery of a lost battle of life in a dystopian world with no ethics or morality; surrounded by people that treat animals orders of magnitude better than me; completely indifferent and uncaring about my last breaths and thoughts as I pass alone in the freezing cold.

Time dilation.
Imagine you go to prison for a year. Thatâs one year youâre without your family and friends, and a year theyâre without you. 1:1 time.
Now imagine youâre put to sleep and kept in a coma like state, fed by tubes. A computer or similar machine induces a dreamlike state that is indistinguishable from reality in which you will be imprisoned for 100 years. You never sleep. You never eat or drink. You never need to. And you canât relax, youâre constantly being hunted or otherwise threatened. In the real world your family never left your side because in the real world, youâre only under for an hour.
Something similar happened to a guy on Star Trek (OâBrien on Deep Space Nine). Black Mirror did it a few times. And the fourth season of Sword Art Online (an anime) did it as well. Probably some others. Oh yeah, Interstellar. So you may have seen it.
Simpsons did a parody of the concept as well.

Except in developed countries. There it's more an inconvenience

I only had one operation in my life and had to get a general anesthetic. It was pretty funny to count down from 10 and not even making it to 7. Probably the closest thing to dying i guess. Now you're here, now you're gone. But i woke up too early, but thankfully they were done. I spooked them because i was talking gibberish while still in the operation room.

my uncle just had detached retina surgery with sclera buckle placement. he said to look it up on YouTube, and... AHHHHHHHHHHHH

How would a society of immortal beings work, though, considering the already existing inequalities and rampant amoral antisocial nature of those currently in power? We kinda just have to make peace with death, right? I'm religious, and what I'm gonna say here might sound a tad heretical, but one life does feel like "enough" (of a gift, if you're religious) and I don't see a working alternative... but perhaps I'm not creative enough?
I see nothing wrong with your logic. Acceptance of death is in some peoples opinion the main function of religion.

Non-existence.
Just thinking about not existing at all gives me this gnarly feeling of primeval fear.

pure void - just a void, not death, a void
