Philosophically speaking, there's a certain nihilistic philosophy out there where nothing matters after you die, so technically, the only thing that matters is the here and now.
So there's definitely a cohort of people out there who intentionally went "fuck the future, my present is good and then I'll be dead."
It's like the "I've got mine" but on an existentialist level.
Having personally experienced the afterlife, and being one of the few who has the foresight - there is a specific and highly ordered way to make sure they reincarnate in the best possible location to live through the shit they've caused.
No just-world fallacy, only just-desserts, because two can play at being really petty on an existential level.

How have you personally experienced the afterlife?
Drugs and/or superstition.
Definitely drugs
