It's too much for my brain at the moment. I'll try again later.
Are you saying... people who don't get the normal feedback emotions from their "good/bad" actions can still care about stuff? Or they don't care about stuff?
People without such feedback still have incentives not to behave in certain "bad" ways, because they know they will get arrested. If they literally don't care about anything, not even themselves, then... they don't care about anything. Usually there is at least an instinct of survival, but if that isn't even there then the person is pretty fucked I agree. Like I said, I've wanted to die for ages. It's not that I would feel bad if I did it, I wouldn't, because I'd be dead. But I care more about those around me than myself. If I didn't, then I wouldn't be me, and I'd probably have killed myself already.
I am still saying that they can have thoughts of care without their pleasant emotions. But they would only be fooling themselves into thinking they care since they actually don't care. They don't have the incentive and they are only fooling their brains into thinking they have it.
