Ooh nihilism new word
It only got blown up recently
neocons a thing now
His nihilism is different from what's commonly know as nihilism
i dont think ill be a gopd nihilist
i like being catholic
say what you will about it ig
im reading through
How come they dont teach stuff like this in school
It's this: Get your head straight, get your facts straight, know what leads to what, know what you want.
well yeah but thats general good advice for everyone
His point is internalizing that.
so the difference is the amount of negativity
That hasn't to do with it.
oh
so its like making that your mantra and guide in life
"Nihilism is a different sort of belief because, unlike almost all beliefs, it's a conduit and not an endpoint. "
yeah
Searching for an encapsulating soundbite.
It makes me think of the spocks in star trek
the ones who say "insults are only effective where emotion is involved" but theyre calculating and bury their emotions so they can better themselves
spocks are cool but the whole green copper blood throws me off
thata pretty cool
i think i like this guy
Nihilism is a joining of these two extremes through a focus on the practical study of reality and a rejection of preconceptions brought on by anthrocentric viewing of the world, which is necessarily confined to the physicality of individuals and objects as they appear to humans. It is not an attempt to create an obligation, or an ideal, in and of itself, but a reduction of things to their simplest, most real elements so that higher ideals can be created, much as the creation of new civilizations produces a collective focus on the forging of something better than previous civilizations. F.W. Nietzsche wrote of the necessity of "going under" in modernity, and one interpretation of this is that one cannot create "higher" ideals when our concept of higher/lower is linear and predefined; one must remove all value and undergo a "reevaluation of all values," focusing only on those which survive the test of a his "philosophical hammer," much like knocking on a wall to find hollow areas. Nihilism is a going under in the form of removal of all value, and construction of values based on reality instead of potentially internalized abstraction. In a nihilist worldview, nothingness is as important as somethingness, as only nothingness can like a midnight predator carry away the somethingness that has outlived its usefulness, is illusory, irrelevant or fanatical. Nihilism is a mental discipline which clarifies outlook by disciplining the mind to understand the structure of reality, and exclude anything which regardless of appearance is not true to that understanding.

Is the crux of it, more or less.
the second half when it talks about nothingness/somethingness ia sorta like the concept od yingyang then?
Negate all meaning, as much of it is baggage, restart with as clean state as possible, see what's actually real, meaningful, important.
Reacquire some of what you did away with.
anus' views on homosexuality make a lot of sense
"There are also promiscuous queers. However, I think there are "fake queers" as well - people who are essentially addicted to sex, or what some might call "perverts," e.g. having an unnatural appetite for it."
i think this applies to transgenderism and the rise of mentally ill incel men who have autogynephilia and try to diddle lesbians
and how fakebois (moderately unattractive or personality void insecure girls) turn into massive cocksluts under the guise that gay men would be into that
(They aren't.)
The west is godless and individualistic. People lack that center to which they've once oriented themselves towards, through which they've gained a sense of union with each other and a prevailing meaningfullness to their lives.
You cant have a western society built on the moral principles of Christianity turn away from it and expect it to not turn into a shitshow
