Existentialism focuses around the ego
WE HAVE A LOT MORE KIDDIE NIHILISTS AROUND
but if it has substance, how is it nihilism?
AGREED @spaceplacenta
IT IS A FORM OF INDIVIDUALISM
IT CONSISTS OF A DISBELIEF IN INHERENT/INNATE VALUE
THIS IS NIHILISTIC
is it possible to not BE a nihilist
FROM THAT, MORE CAN BE ASCERTAINED
BUT AT THE SAME TIME
but to incoporate nihilistic viewpoints?
THE BASIS IS IN NIHILISM
PROBABLY
THERE ARE MULTIPLE PATHS TO MOST CONCLUSIONS
Nihilism is a faulty foundation
THE PROBLEM WILL BE IF YOU TAKE A COLLECTION OF CONCLUSIONS
WHETHER OR NOT THEY ALL WORK TOGETHER
Why not pose pragmatism as transcendental Idealism
it's more suiting than being a cynic for the sake of being a cynic
cynicism seems like an end
nihilism being that end in modern terms
YES, CYNICISM IS A METHOD BASED ON MAKING ASSUMPTIONS INTO CONCLUSIONS
CAN BE USEFUL I SUPPOSE
PRAGMATISM WILL DEFAULT TO STANDARD HUMAN MENTALLY CONVENIENT INDIVIDUALISM
i love you papa. i feel like i am home in your arms.
The interpretation of nihilism is that of an invalid world, where solely being human is its epitaph
i think the fault is in the being of nihilism
In a Nietzschean view
you can't help but become nihilist
nobody here surely asked to come to such a conclusion
"Existentialism focuses around the ego"
It doesn't have to, it can just be a starting point
It's still more of that than it is nihilism
But I don't care, I like Wittgenstein. I'll play the language game
When the psyche is in league with the sensible world, there is no free will (this is where I disagree with Schopenhauer)
Schopenhauer believed in free will
Kant did not
Kant held duty as the highest moral good
