We all deserve to thrive, not just survive. (Sometimes even less then that)

Sorry to break it to you but is not even surviving. The one qualification to surviving is not to die and you will do that. This is existing and too many assholes get their kicks from making it suck.

I find it freeing that life has no meaning. That means I don’t have to bother meeting arbitrary goals and deadlines.

Surviving is literally all it’s about. Anything more is what we do in the meantime.

More of wholesomememes than shitpost, but will allow it.

We’d like to think so, however that thought itself might as well be explained by simple evolution. Someone believing in a meaningful existence has a higher chance of surviving long enough to procreate. A truly apathetic being wouldn’t mind dying.

“Meaning” is only another story in your mind. A thought-concept.
“What’s wrong with right now if you don’t think about it?”

Having BPD or being bi-polar makes it so that you constantly flip between these two states, with nothing in the middle.

The thing to know about nihilism is that it doesn’t matter that it doesn’t matter.
Pirasp@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Also there being no meaning to it all leaves you free to make one up for yourself.

The universe doesn’t care. But we do, and that’s what’s important. The meaning of existence is us
Olmai@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Meaning is relative. My life doesn’t matter, but it matters to me.

“Nihilists. F*ck me. I mean say what you want about the tenets of National Socialism man, at least it’s an ethos.”
huginn@feddit.it 7 months ago
If everyone were nihilists the world would be a better place.
If everyone were national socialists then humanity would be enslaved by a tiny group of autocrats.
If that’s an ethos I don’t want one.

So choose absurdism. Is nihilism without the suicide.
funkajunk@lemm.ee 7 months ago
You don’t have to kill yourself to be a nihilist, it just doesn’t matter if you do.
Blyfh@lemmy.world 7 months ago
What’s the difference between absurdism and positive nihilism?

Optimistic nihilism!
