Hi, thanks for your reply and for approving my post. I definitely get what you mean when you said “people trapped in a kinda anxiety loop about acausal blackmail”, and admittedly I do consider myself somewhat in that category. However, simply being aware of this doesn’t really help me get over my fears, since I am someone that really likes to hear concrete arguments about why stuff like this doesn’t work instead of just being satisfied with a simple answer. You said that you had to deal with this sort of thing a lot so I presume you’ve heard a bunch of arguments and scenarios like this, do you mind sharing the reasons why you do not worry about it?
