I have come to conclusion that life is completely meaningless. People like to say that you give your own meaning to life but of course that's bull sh-t. You're going to die so anything you do will be forgotten. I personally think its stupid to think that we have a afterlife but the other animals dont. Why the fu-k would the evil talking monkeys get a afterlife lol? How many of you understand that life is meaningless? How do you keep going knowing the truth and not get depressed?



This is partly true. There is no god or afterlife. Life is meaningless and there is no main quest you have to finish in life. There is no ultimate meaning. You're just here sort of randomly like everyone else. I made it my main quest to have a good life with my family, to have fun, use up the worlds resources, go on adventures, camp in the mountains, run naked on the beaches and so on.

I also like to help my community. I go way above and beyond at work and help people fix up their stuff and try to leave the world in a better places than I found it and to leave a positive impact on people. It try to pick up litter and contribute where I can.

You don't have to be forgotten if you don't want to be. Especially with the internet because now everything online is forever until humans are no longer here. To be remembered you have to do something great like make a masterpiece work of art, dedicate your life to helping people, invent something amazing, or become a world leader. You can also be remembered and, in a way, keep living by passing on your genes and raising a kid. After you've had your fun you can dedicate your life to letting someone else experience a good life.

specialpeopleclub that was a ignorant thing to say. I'm glad this thing has a ignore list.


Spoiled adolescent proves point.
I've seen enough people, my only mistake is not trusting that I see what they are.

Called it so easilly, I'm amazed. You got insulted and called me ignorant.
Out of all I said, you take office like a pathetic child.

I wish I had a charity that gave the means of suicide to nihilists so that we didn't have to hear that self serving bitch talk.
Like I said, I  have terrible depression and OCD.
It feels super lame. Other people are living in what amounts to literal physical and/or mental hell that have it worse then I could ever imagine.
Most don't give up on finding meaning in life.

Then nihilists puke their depressing slop into everyone's ears like some eyeliner wearing middle schooler, or some staunch materialist, that needs to eat a fat sack of D's. It's an infection.

Not you, just in general.
That would be against the rules and ban worthy.
people who use the ignore feature and nihilists are like a weeping gash opening up in the universe.
Existential crisis I understand, but philosophical nihilism is like, the worst.

Again, not the person Im replying to, just these people in general. You know if it's you.
I'm also not a troll, I'm an ogre. It's an easy mistake. We are both Horde races.
I have layers. one of them is anger, most of them are onion.
I also live in a swamp
We have layers though

my psychedelic experiences showed that we are part of the fabric and structure of existence, every action has meaningful consequences in the whole scheme of things

You can't use psychedelic experiences as proof for meaning to the universe.

Why not? Who are you to dictate what other people can do, providing they're hurting no one in trying to seek their own truth and meaning?

Is it because you have assumed none yourself you see yourself fit to pass judgement over others?

Have you become so jaded you have assumed self-importance over others?

I have seen this happen many times.

Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not.

Proof -is a fact, argument, or piece of evidence which shows that something is definitely true or definitely exists. ... 


Thought you should know what is means

Show me definite proof that all of this universe actually exists, and we're not in some matrix-type simulation then.

Such proof is probably impossible because a sufficiently advanced simulation might be perfectly undetectable. Only affirmative proof of an imperfect simulation is possible I think. And in the absence of that, it makes sense to default to the simpler explanation (no matrix-type simulation) unless/until it proves to be insufficient in explaining some new observations.

saying everything is meaningless requires a lot of assumptions. it means you think you know how it all works.
but we really dont know even the most fundamental questions about life like what is it, how is it, what is conciousness,etc.
Life might be meaningless on the absolute level, but it doesnt seem so on the relative level and thats the level the mind works. (ex. pain is reason to avoid painful situations)
sure the mind can theorize about ultimate meaninglessness  but it does this by giving meaning to other things.
if there was an actual moment of seeing thru all the self imposed meaning there would be a seeing that you dont know shit beyond  just this one indescribable happening.. and theres a lightness and joy of being that comes with that as nihilism(heavy belief system)  drops away.
