Why does Sup Forums hate Reddit and Memey but love True Detective when they're both fedora tier?

weak bait

True Detective is also actually good.

Humanity was a mistake, Marty.
*takes really long drag of cig*

Because he actually got called out for being an edgy faggot in the show itself. Unlike the following season where being an edgy tryhard faggot was the norm.

Fuckin this

Seems to me the light is winning.

Except he was not.
He was the moral man of the show and Marty, the straight man, was the fucking degenerate

because there is nuance and redemption in this story. it doesn't gloat and revel in the nihilism in a quirky way. rust's entire psyche is damaged in a deep way and through his friendship and autism he eventually overcomes it

>looks like the light is winning

Marty was always there to put Rust's fedora tipping shit in its place. Also Rust wasn't a pessimist because he thought it would make him look cool- he didn't see meaning in life because of his past and his experiences with his job.

The show was honest about what nihilism does to people. Rust was a depressed man, struggling to find meaning, but as the last scene showed, he did seek meaning. On the surface yeah he's a nihilist, but underneath he's struggling to find meaning and still seeks justice. That's the one thing that keeps him going, a sense of justice.

(I actually still enjoy Rick & Morty, but let's not pretend that Rust wasn't a more complex character than Rick)

>Rust gets called out as an edgy fag
>this makes it OK

>Rick gets called out as an edgy fag
>this doesn't make it OK

Loving the disconnect here.

>The show was honest about what nihilism does to people. Rust was a depressed man, struggling to find meaning

Are you seriously suggesting that this doesn't apply to Rick?

>true detective is based on nuanced characterization, introspection and development weaved into a multiyear plot that has a semblance of closure
>rick and morty is flanderization fart jokes: the show
ami i posting in a b8 thread

To be fair Rick has proven multiple times of having a sparkle of good inside him, and his cinismo was punished a lot, but Sup Forums doesnt care

This. Rust's negative outlook on life is the result of the things he's seen. He's not an edgy "LOL LIFE HAS NO MEANING LET'S GET WASTED" caricature. He's struggling to find meaning in a fucked up world the same way lots of us do. There's so much suffering and injustice in the world, so what keeps us going? For Rust it's his battle to improve the world, protect the innocent, that sort of thing.

I don't watch cartoons faggot.

Can someone explain to me the difference between Nihilism, Existentialism and Absurdism?

>>looks like the light is winning

That ending is the ultimate pleb filter.

The show is the opposite of nihilism you moron. Did you even watch the entire season?

season 2 > season 1

Mods should ban this anytime it's posted. It's such obvious bait.

Shitposting aside, I should really rewatch season 1.

>He's struggling to find meaning in a fucked up world the same way lots of us do
i think the big difference in Rust is that first, he has actually gone through hard and damaging experiences that most of us would kys having gone through. Where Rick is just a literal cartoon nihilist which really is just a euphemism for a hedonist.

Rust is a philosophical pessimist. It's actually based on a real book by Ligotti called The Conspiracy against the Human Race. Rick is based on pleb tier justifications to be a degenerate. Rust is the opposite of a hedonistic degenerate, he is basically a monk trying to find closure.

>Nihilism
There is no inherent meaning in life, the universe or anything. It doesn't mean you can't create your own. Things, actions, words, only have the meaning you impart on them. These days it's a hip meme ideology for degenerates who think lol yolo nothing matters

>Existentialism
Concerning yourself with current, present existence - the past has already happened and the future doesn't exist. You exist here, now, immediately, that's all that matters.

>Absurdism
Dunno, to be honest, probably massively edgy.

At least those are my understandings of them.

season 2 is the ultimate pleb filter.

Buy a dictionary, remove your fedora and anal beads, stop browsing /x/ and rewatch season 2 so you can understand your mistakes in life

You actually just btfo Sup Forums

wikipedia

Absurdism very simply put is this: Life has no inherent meaning, but you can enjoy it by analyzing it and enjoying life's intricacies.

We see you op

and it's important to note that Rust isn't any of those things. He's a pessimist, which is more than our pleb usage of pessimist as someone being negative. Philosophical pessisimism (afaik from reading Ligotti) is basically that human consciousness was the greatest mistake and to have to cognizantly go through the crucible of life is hell on earth and all we can do is occupy our minds from the inevitable maw of fate. It's all pretty edgy honestly and anyone who actually believed it would have kys. Otherwise its just big brain nigga masturbation

>true cucktective
>good
M'lady

The first is a problem, the later two are solutions to the problem. Or rather stances one can assume when confronted with nihilism.

They were both degenerates

His daughter was killed in a car accident and his marriage fell apart, of course he has lost his faith in god.

That's way different to DUDE, LE SCIENCE SO GOD ISN'T REAL, CHECKMATE ;)
