CHATGPT Summary of Nihilism and Absurdism (rest of the thread by me, just a summary of both philosophies since I can't be bothered to write that rn.
Nihilism is the philosophical belief that life lacks inherent meaning, purpose, or value, and that traditional morals, religious truths, and structures of meaning are baseless. In its most extreme form, nihilism can lead to despair or apathy, suggesting that since nothing has meaning, there’s no reason to act or care about anything.
Absurdism, closely associated with philosopher Albert Camus, acknowledges that life has no inherent meaning, but instead of despair, it suggests a rebellion against this meaninglessness. It argues that humans should embrace the absurd and continue living, creating personal meaning through their own actions and experiences.

Nihilism is gay and cucked. It (pretty much) always leads to an existential rejection of life as a whole and promotes giving up and a sort of "paralysis" since it views existence as futile and devoid of value.
That makes sense sure, but why not kill yourself if you're a nihilist? It just seems like a super gay and homosexual worldview to follow.
Absurdism, on the other hand, accepts that life is inherently meaningless, but instead of surrendering, it encourages individuals to embrace the absurdity of life and live fully.
Does this not make the most sense?
Nihilism will just lead to pessimism and depression, since it promotes the fact that "muh everything is pointless cunt just kys tbh". If that's your forte, be my guest and go live your sad faggot life rotting away in your armchair.
Absurdism, leads to a sort of sense of carelessness and freedom, especially in the absence of an objective purpose for life. Absurdism is just more pragmatic. Even if life has no grand purpose, just live life, why wouldn't you?
Embrace the absurdity, it just makes sense!!!
