    Yeeeaaahh, we really did turn a tool which was supposedly meant to enhance our performance in the real world into a world of its own, that’s often mentally addictive and exploitative.

    At the same time, the real world is properly fucked right now, where individuals are highly isolated from one another and there are financial barriers at every turn. I don’t blame folks who get stuck in a spot where they only have people they want to interact with online.







  • I believe you used Nihilism wrong in your previous comment based on what you’ve written here. I think more fitting words are hopelessness, pessimism, or defeatism.

    Nihilism is simply refutation of meaning within the world. You can still think kids are great and that life is worth living while believing that there is no meaning to life or any of the other nihilistic assertions. You can even choose to attribute new meaning to your life, as Nietzsche’s Übermensch does. See also Absurdism.
