existential nihilism just means there is no *intrinsic* meaning. If you believe in any kind of freedom, congratulations, you are a nihilist

2019-01-11 06:24:45 UTC  

cause if there was some intrinsic meaning anything else would just be a failure

2019-01-11 06:24:51 UTC  

@Redneo no, nihilism believes even freedom is absurd

2019-01-11 06:24:58 UTC  

You don't even know what you believe

2019-01-11 06:25:11 UTC  

Or rather you misrepresent yourself and a belief system at the same time

2019-01-11 06:25:16 UTC  

Is the statement "I define what life means to me" nihilism?

2019-01-11 06:25:25 UTC  

No

2019-01-11 06:25:40 UTC  

Nihilism is about the inherent lack of potential purpose or meaning to anything

2019-01-11 06:25:53 UTC  

"Nihilism (/ˈnaɪ(h)ɪlɪzəm, ˈniː-/; from Latin nihil, meaning 'nothing') is the philosophical viewpoint that suggests the denial or lack of belief towards the reputedly meaningful aspects of life. Most commonly, nihilism is presented in the form of existential nihilism, which argues that life is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value."

2019-01-11 06:25:53 UTC  

Well yes.

2019-01-11 06:26:01 UTC  

A true nihilist may as well commit suicide

2019-01-11 06:26:08 UTC  

Yeah, if you believe in freedom you have to believe there is no objective purpose

2019-01-11 06:26:10 UTC  

Nothing means anything without consciousness

2019-01-11 06:26:18 UTC  

Is that nihilism?

2019-01-11 06:26:25 UTC  

Consciousness gives things worth

2019-01-11 06:26:27 UTC  

And meaning

2019-01-11 06:26:32 UTC  

@Redneo You literally posted a definition that backs me uo

2019-01-11 06:26:41 UTC  

@Gilgamesh i didnt

2019-01-11 06:26:43 UTC  

I said nihilism is without meaning of anything

2019-01-11 06:26:50 UTC  

That definition says the same thing

2019-01-11 06:26:51 UTC  

Objective meaning

2019-01-11 06:26:57 UTC  

@Gilgamesh no it didnt.

2019-01-11 06:26:58 UTC  

Intrinsic

2019-01-11 06:27:01 UTC  

it said OBJECTIVE meaning

2019-01-11 06:27:03 UTC  

Ffs

2019-01-11 06:27:04 UTC  

Objective meaning aint a thing

2019-01-11 06:27:07 UTC  

You are so full of shit

2019-01-11 06:27:11 UTC  

Meaning, subjective and assigned is fine.

2019-01-11 06:27:46 UTC  

Nihilists are literally edgy kids who want to act above everything by saying nothing is real just like how a kid hides under the covers when they're afraid

2019-01-11 06:27:52 UTC  

Quote me on that

2019-01-11 06:27:54 UTC  

Stuff doesn't mean shit without a mind to figure it all out

2019-01-11 06:28:00 UTC  

exactly

2019-01-11 06:28:10 UTC  

that's assigned

2019-01-11 06:28:16 UTC  

@Gilgamesh or maybe you just have no clue what you are talking about. like everyone else here seems to think

2019-01-11 06:28:17 UTC  

SportsGate isn't coming, it's here

2019-01-11 06:28:42 UTC  

@Redneo so a nihilist is now going in appeal to majority fallacy

2019-01-11 06:28:47 UTC  

How ironic

2019-01-11 06:28:54 UTC  

They're starting to talk about "White Privilege" bullshit in the NFL.

2019-01-11 06:29:02 UTC  

#SportsGate is coming

2019-01-11 06:29:07 UTC

2019-01-11 06:29:09 UTC
