The clones retain the same physical attributes and memory as the original ‘you’ just before the replacement. From the clone’s perspective, it would be as if you swapped places with another person with no context of the situation that person was in, except it’s with every living person on earth, everyone but you cease to exist and the original ‘you’ isn’t affected in any way.

How would you imagine the world to become after this? How would the society act now that it has become entirely composed of 'you’s? How would you and your clones live the rest of your lives in such a world?

    This happens in a comics, I’ll try to remember it’s name but there is a sentient, ultra violent poo-like protagonist who is kind of the hero named Schlock or something.

    It’s a teleport malfunction and a science guy gets multiplied like 400 million times.

      Gav. Cameo from Nukees. Dude ends up outnumbering quite a few species. As the author notes, you have to be dinka-cho careful with tokjith.

      Schlock Mercenary is pretty great, I reread it every few years.

      If you like military scifi it’s worth a look.
