So anons, we are all here fighting for what we believe are great ideals, but, if we position ourselves in a long-term perspective, don't we realize that even the concept of existence is fully useless?
In billion of years Earth will be burnt down by the expanding Sun, literally nothing of what we know as today will remain, even the whole universe is predicted to end somehow (plenty of theories about that)...
Ever had any moment in which you realized how everything is pointless, not only your job, your life and human problems, but also everything in existence?
Robert Gutierrez
That's a lie. Consciousness is how the Universe experiences Itself. Every moment is happening at the same time so it's all meaningfull.
Benjamin Ross
There is literally no intrinsic value in life, fellow italobro. You can wake up and mind your own shit without caring too much about petty shit, once you deeply realize it.

>Ever had any moment in which you realized how everything is pointless, not only your job, your life and human problems, but also everything in existence?
Yes, then I grew out of it. Pointlessness is a perspective, not a truth. If you asked me years ago, I would have said you are intelligent. Now, I can't help how stupid it seems to undermine the value of the immediate present reality by mental constructs of some conceptualized future.
The meaning of life is not in the context, it is in the experience itself.
Hudson Robinson
Sure propagate your genes and then vibrate off to a higher plane of existence. Also don't be a fucking gay cunt, or a leaf.
Samuel Bell
Utterly fucking retarded. What we do with our lives today continues to build the foundation for future generations and civilizations that will surpass us, evolving into beings that dont give a fuck if the Earth is destroyed a billion years from now because they will have spread throughout the entire universe.
Liam Flores
no real purpse, no. eventually everything we have ever done will be gone, no matter what we do in the future. billions of years from now, the earth and sun will be gone. billions of years after that, stars will cease to exist. galaxies will move far away from each other. eventually nothing will exist except black holes and "iron stars" (which don't exist yet).
even if humanity survives far into the future, we can't escape any of this.
Gavin Price
Imagine the galactic funeral we will have for Earth when the time finally comes. Craddle of mankind, now gone forever.
Thomas Anderson
>it is in the experience itself
how so? everything you experience dies with you. do you care about the billions of people that have died before you, and experienced the same things you are going through?
It's a paradox. The moment I realized how everything was essentially nothing in the end was the exact moment I became completely appreciative and invested in the present moment for the miracle of existence.
It's a Buddhist concept I guess.
Jonathan Mitchell
Why do you do it user? Why get up? Why keep going? Do you believe you're fighting for something? For more than your survival? Can you tell me what it is? Do you even know? Is it freedom? Or truth? Perhaps peace? Could it be for love? Illusions, user. Vagaries of perception. Temporary constructs of a feeble human intellect trying desperately to justify an existence that is without meaning or purpose. And all of them as artificial as life itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love. You must be able to see it, user. You must know it by now. It's pointless to keep going. Why user? Why? Why do you persist?
Jacob Davis
I dont get why people are so into politics and race war bs that wont affect them. Like how people are fighting for "muh superior race" or whatever. That shit wouldnt happen till long after youre dead. even if it did happen It wouldnt happen for at least 100 years which is about the amount of time it takes for every person currently alive to die and be replaced by someone new. And after you die the universe might as well skip forward to heat death where nothing remains.
Easton Morris

Caleb Morgan
No other time exist. Consciousness never dies. It is, forever.
Juan Richardson
Feeling like our lives are useless is what got us in the mess in the first place.
Noah Parker
Life has the meaning you give it. Conversely, the flesh is an illusion and matter is made of dreamstuff and we are bound for another plane of existance after this.
Carson Anderson
>even if humanity survives far into the future, we can't escape any of this.
You sound awfully sure. Do you think sailing from one continent to another was once deemed an impossibility? There is no guarantee that the existence we perceive is the everythingness that exist. Heat death is just the physical endpoint of the currently observable universe.
>how so? everything you experience dies with you
That's your belief, not a truth. Moreover, it's insignificant whether your existence is finite or infinite. Temporality as a quality is irrelevant to existential meaning. You exist now. Any and all meaning you can create for your life can only be created within the present moment, the experience. Because that is what meaning fundamentally is, an experience. It is not an intellectual conclusion.
>do you care about the billions of people that have died before you, and experienced the same things you are going through? Yes and no. Should I care about them? Should even acknowledge them? I don't think it makes a relevant difference.
Bentley Watson
>millions of gorillions of science^tm mean you should be blackpilled goy
Fucking die. Fuck science and fuck incel depressed spergs.
Nolan Hall
I reached this conclusion a short time later

A man chooses his purpose
Jacob Sanders
can I have the other cat images?
Parker Anderson
Okay, that’s fair. The end of that tunnel is “well no one is going to care in a million years so why bother”. Since nothing matters, why don’t you kindly neck yourself
Anthony Gutierrez
What purpose should it have? There are 7 billion other existential human beings on this planet, do you really think you have an ultimate purpose? Everyone is replaceable.
Andrew Green
>It's pointless to keep going. Why user? Why? Why do you persist? Because I choose to.
Brandon Barnes
No. We are going into the oblivion anyway, why accelerating that?
I guess the only possible solution could be keeping on making experiences and pursuing objectives, but with the awareness that, even if we fail, nothing is going to change the equilibrium of the world.
It gives you quite a sense of freedom and relief if you think about it
Levi Richardson
EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
This place only makes things worse user lol but I'd rather see things for how they might actually be as opposed to a forced reality most humans live in. You're not supposed to think that much goy! Here - have a Christ for your troubles.
End of the world is inevitable. This means there is no and never was any "god" in any form human came up with. Athiesm is lifting off the candy coated lenses and really embracing the nothingness that we all are - that's why humans love religion innit? We mean nothing and are nothing. Best to just enjoy life.
Christopher Moore
>claims that we are all nothing >is not really nothing

Levi Jenkins
What's this new nihilist shill push? There's like 5+ threads up right now about how life is meaningless?
Is this an attempt to project their own brokenhearted feelings about the political landscape on their opponent?
Benjamin Miller
>Is there any real purpose in existence? Not if you're Italian.
Austin Parker
lol no I didn't even know about the other threads, and the political landscape for me is quite good looking given my reactionary ideals.
I've just rewatched the Matrix trilogy and overthought stuff apparently
Jason Anderson
>Muh nihilism
You need to be >18 to view this board.
Brody Ward
We are the universe experiencing itself. Death doesn't matter Experiencing all you can does That's all
Liam Lewis
Good luck out there, Italiano
Jose Mitchell
no there is none enjoy it
William Russell
Nobody knows user. Try not to think about it.
Liam Edwards
>Is there any real purpose in existence?
Finding God.
Cameron Jones
>Is there any real purpose in existence?
Yes. The human experience. It's the only thing you really have.
Juan Sullivan
I'm going to spend my life seeking the truth. I do believe in a creator and I also believe in this world there exist good and evil. I also do believe I have seen the devil but it was in someone else face. The only way I can describe it it was the same look a predator like a lion or tiger looks at its prey before it attacks.
Samuel Perry
>In billion of years [..] literally nothing of what we know as today will remain
[Citation needed]
Personally I am planning to stick around until the heat death of the universe
Xavier James
Pathetic, feable brained human beings.
Live lifelong as a fuck. I know humans are terrified at the thought and will grasp onto anything that will help them through their time on this earth. A spiritual crutch if you will.
Sad, sad, sad and a insanely human idea crafted from fear and the unknown.
