then why do you care about the knife to the liver in preference to the sandwich?
You're gonna die anyway?
It doesn't matter in the end?
Like when the sun blows up? Ok maybe, but everything mattered right up until that point
Do it.
@DeezNutzYourChin well that's a positive way to think about it but the chances are most of your actions don't
See what I mean about dead end philosophy?
why should i?
no you are just strawmanning
nothing matters in the end so I don't have to strife to either kill myself or not to
you don't even get what the idea of that philosphy is
Sure they do.. that night my great great grandpa decided to go out and find a woman to fuck instead of staying home and jerking off to anime didn’t seem like it mattered at the time but it matters to me
You are thinking about this wrong.
@DeezNutzYourChin and after your entire line dies after going MGTOW it still ends up not matter in a few hundred years, that's the idea
By nature, nihilism nothing matters.
oh yeah its because others get the "philosphy wrong'no you
Once you start making things matter again, you're likely crossing into existentialism.
The idea of nihilism is that nothing matters in the end
not "nothing matters"
if you skip the in the end part the entire philosphy makes no sense
My life still matters, the stuff I do will have an effect and has had an effect. Some good some bad some to be determined.

@DeezNutzYourChin yes your life matters to you right now , but in a few hundred years it won't, that's the idea of nihilism
But, according to Victor, in the end, nothing matters, so it's okay if you get a stick of semtex crammed up your ass and detonated but it's also okay if you have a nice day on the beach instead.
whats the debate?
Or you could take the judgement out of the consequences and just call them effects. Same diff
Because nihilism.
it will cause you immediate pain
it doesn't matter in 500 years
but it matters now
like I said
you keep cutting the idea in half
then strawman it
But your philosophy literally rests on the it doesn't matter part.
"it doesn't matter in the end", that's what nihilism is
And when you start assigning value and preference, you are no longer nihilist.
I don't know why you have to say "my philosphy"
but the length you go through to ignore the "in the end" part is hilarious
Small things that people did 2000 years ago still matter so that’s just silly thinking nothing matters once the space rock takes out all life or whatever “the end” is
Also, stop trying to redefine nihilism. It has a definition:
the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless.
synonyms: negativity, cynicism, pessimism; More
rejection, repudiation, renunciation, denial, abnegation;
disbelief, nonbelief, unbelief, scepticism, lack of conviction, absence of moral values, agnosticism, atheism, nontheism
"he could not accept Bacon's nihilism, his insistence that man is a futile being"
Philosophy
