The Neo-Nihilism was invented by the Norwegian-British philosopher Peter Sjostedt-H (the o in Sjostedt has two dots above it but my keyboard doesn't have that character). In his book, "Neo-Nihilism: The Philosopher of Power" Peter describes the Neo-Nihilism movement as a continuation of Nietzsche's Nihilism as a Nihilism with a positive outcome. The book is only 30 pages long and reads more like an essay rather a book, which is perfect for me since I hate reading long books.
The two of the biggest tenants of the NN philosophy are:
1. Morality is merely nothing more than relative social constructions have no fundamental or objective basis to them without the society believing in the will of God.
2. The only true virtue is power, within the Nietzschean sense of the word, and therefore concepts such as morality are expressions of power structures. Peter proclaims that the meaning of life is the will to power, that exist to seize power and maintain it and that is all.
Why should you take the NNpill?
I believe that it points to something much greater and that is the trap of ideology that modern world is filled with. Humans are the only creature on the earth that will die for an idea. We live our lives in concepts and ideas more than the real world. Any other animal is too stupid to understand things such as religion, justice, laws, maths, economics, reason and so on yet these concept are "fundamental" to life as a modern man. T
...how do this relate to you?
If all beliefs are false it teaches you to trust your eyes more than your eyes and live your life with a newfound supreme freedom. Look at your problems in the face and see them as they really are and not how they ought to be (ought statements are a huge part of the book) and you decide how you want to handle them.
A lot of users on this forum are considering suicide because they believe that their life only has meaning if they are a chad or are able to reproduce (depending on who you ask the reply may be different but similar). The NNpill invites you to question these at a deeply fundamental basis and in a way that escapes the circular logic ideology.
I like the idea of a universal value underpinning the whole of life, however I disagree that life is merely the will to power. Although the basis set out in the book does make sense it's really up to you what the universal principle of your life should be.
For example:
Life is the "will to truth"
Life is the "will to self expression"
Life is the " will to connection and love"
And so on...
Therefore you could say that life is the amalgamation of unique wills constantly evolving. What is your will? Find it and watch it grow.
....I'm too tired to finish this thread I'll answer questions/ revise the post/ add more point in the replies of this thread. This thread would of been 10x better if I spent the time properly planning this thread out and writing it when I'm not tired but I guess I'm lazy.
