I don't see how the existence of every logically consistent variation of me in a parallel universe could effect (or even affect) my subjectivity right now in this universe. Hell even if the multiverse theory is true I may never subjectively know that it is true, so how could it have anything to do with my present subjectivity? I don't see how those other versions of me could cause this me any harm, nor do I see how I could harm them even if I wanted to, and I don't.
