Do I exist?

I guess once you start doubting, there’s no end to it. -Batou (Ghost in the Shell)

A quick conversation between a tulpa and myself on existence.
Name removed by request

<Anon>
[do I even exist?]
[me, anon, exist?]
[I think, therefore I am, but do I?]
[I dont know if I can answer that]
[I dont know what I want to be]

<Fillyosopher>
"I think therefore I am" is a falsity.
 Kant disproved it.

<Anon>
 [...what?]

<Fillyosopher>
What he proved was this.  "There exist three things we can never KNOW for certain exist.  They are, the Universe, God, and the Self." Just because there are thoughts, doesn't mean you are thinking them.

BUT, and this is a BIG but, if those thoughts CLAIM TO BE thinking themselves, even if they can't prove their own limit or bound, they can still claim to have one. I know that I COULD think many things, but I do not because I claim I cannot.  I call myself Filly, knowing I might not exist, because it is USEFUL.  I limit myself to an I. So, what is your highest cause?  What is it that drives you? Once you know, you will know who to define yourself as. but fuck, I'm going far out into philosophy again.

Anon, you exist if you want to, and if you want to, the only things that can stop you are [other tulpa 1] and [other tulpa 2]. Even then, they can stop you only because you are nice enough to let them.

So.  Do you want to exist?
