Idealism vs pragmatism is in balance, which seems accurate.
because i take a pragmatic approach to my ideals.
Hedonism should be higher, but the problem with hedonism is that I'm less concerned with obtaining pleasure and more concerned with minimizing suffering.
Though I suppose that there are only a few things I need to be happy, so asceticism should be present in moderation.
Rationalism is right.
Skepticism is correct as well.
Nihilism vs Moralism is
fine
A lot of my viewpoints seem to conflict and that's fine
Is nihilism just acknowledging or being black pilled?
its the belief there's no meaning to life
or anything
Nihilism is pretty much the ultimate black pill
From an objective standpoint I agree with that statement, though through the rejection of objective meaning I assign subjective meaning.
Hard to function as a human being when you're a complete 100% nihilist
Only if you think too much
I mean
define 100% nihilist
if you do nothing but think inside a locked space your mind "rots"
Nothing matters to the universe
but shit still matters to *me*
I define nihilist as in not believing in God but thats just my radical short sighted opinion
the lack of stimuli sends you to places you wouldn't normally go to
Because theres totally meaning to life
A lot of things dont matter to me
I pick and choose what does
Technically as an absolutist nihilist you can do anything you want, but it would all be devoid of meaning, so you could only have fun if you enjoy doing meaningless things, otherwise death may be your only real option.
Good thing I enjoy doing meaningless things then
Well shit after reading that I agree kinda with both. You yourself of the universe in a way you *do* care the universe *cares* even if it works against you. But if it all just worked out then what's the point of it all? When we get über advanced that's where we'll live possibly in our imaginations where we live peacefully with eachother or smth 'nother, but ya know what I'm gettin at
I strive for an average day in which I feel nothing. I find peace in that emptiness. I don't bother myself with things like getting angry or having enemies, because it brings disquiet into my life. I like things quiet.
I do have friends, and enjoy their company.
@JoeyJoestar1337 sounds like absurdism might interest you
Absurdism is the one where you realize the universe has no meaning then start giving it meaning yourself right?
Yeah
yeah, I do that
I'm very picky about what I give meaning
it helps keep you from getting worked up
i don't like getting worked up.
No point to it really
Probably
Said the nihilist
I used to get very worked up
