bye bye humanity unless… Theoretically, there is a way to defeat this dude, but it will be extremely, extremely difficult (and in probability, concerningly unlikely if unintentionally messed up.) But first, we have to set up some foundational information in relation to this very specific scenario. And it starts not with him, but with @Phantom_Bowtie, also known as Danny Phantom. (get it?) The explicit fact that he is a phantom implies that (at least for this specific species) there is a (1) state after death, which also (b) has the capacity, the potential to interact with the physical, material state within a particular mental state. As to quote John Searle from the book, ‘The Mind and the Brain’ (9/10 book, definitely a good read), “As far as we know, the fundamental features of [the physical] world are as described by physics, chemistry and the other natural sciences. But the existence of phenomena that are not in any obvious way physical or chemical gives rise to puzzlement… How does a mental reality, a world of consciousness, intentionality and other mental phenomena, fit into a world consisting entirely of physical particles in fields of force?” If the answer is it doesn't, then we have a little explanatory gap here. (Very convenient considering that all of a sudden, there’s this living being that is both dead, and can act as if it is alive, just saying :/) Not to mention, 8Bits was already dead to begin with in the first place somewhere in the late 1800s (https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1058921223/) so he’s practically a glorified version of a phantom. For simplicity, and materialistic purposes justified by research and people a lot smarter than me, I’ll just assume (if it wasn’t already implied) that the mind is correlated to the brain, and dependent on the brain for existence, but is separate from it. Next thing, 8Bits has been existing for, at least 200+ years, give or take (https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1058921223/), so he knows a thing or two about humanities (human behavior and culture), social sciences (literally has social media, what are you gonna do :\) and at this point in history would’ve already have information sources (pdfs, wikipedia, dictionaries, encyclopedias, books and papers in general) *just* in case that wasn’t enlightening enough. This is what I meant when I said it’s not his brawn, but his brain. It’s the fact that the LITERAL SUPER-BEING KNOWS US BETTER THAN WE DO D: I will say, for several reasons (besides gruesome, imminent death, execution or something else bad), You should probably consider surrendering at first. But if you have to rebel, here’s how to do it: Step 1: Don’t be a human. If you are, too bad o7 Step 2: Have a portable time machine, AND a teleportation device (make sure you buy the all-in-one model, or make one DIY, like a brute) Step 3: travel to the [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 4: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 5: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 6: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 7: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 8: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 9: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 10: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 11: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] Step 12: [REMOVED BY HANDSOME, CHARMING LEADER OF WORLD DOMINATION] …and with a approximate 16/53 (30.189% chance), that is how you defeat this dude :D [UPDATE:] literally almost forgot the fact that this will get harder every single day, until it’s impossible (you hit the theoretical max threshold), so if you *have* to do it, DO IT NOW, RIGHT NOW. DO NOT WAIT ANY LONGER.
