How Many Clones Are Enough?

[swillfly]

What is a good number of clones to have ready from backup or for spare parts?

I like 13 because it's a nice pleasant manageable amount.

Oh my really? How do you know?

I made a clone, and they became their own person.

several other people have tried to recreate me, or make clones of their own, and each time they have become their own person.

I have split my mind into conscious and subconscious parts, and each is another person still.

I think what I wanted was just multiple bodies that were each being granted the full weight of personhood. A lot of people want that when they make kids, I think.

oh you're going to change it to clowns instead of clones.

Believing the lie as it is presented to you means you will believe anything, even that which causes you to see the truth for what it is. You can't hide from it. An endless timeline ensures you are certain to face it. You only make it harder on yourself. I wish you the best on your mission.

Because they're new & shiny; wouldn't make sense to keep the old, run-down fellow around otherwise.

The thing with clones is that because they are intelligent they seek freedom and turn against you. Lİke it did in Blade Runner.

Freedom is an illusion like tears in the rain . . . unless the clones are imprisoned or kept in stasis then they're already "free".

You're asking for trouble leaving it at 13.

what happens if someone released all your clones and turned them all against you, created an elaborate digital and physical theft of person to one of the other clones and all you are left with is being stuck in a vault, in the dark talking with other people who tried to help you going on about how these clones are stealing your house and your car and how no one can steal these things, not even yourself.
