Nihilism - Page 2

fuck nihilism

Maybe I'm in the minority but I believe that we live and we die. Outside of that, we as humans construct anything we can to forget that fact.

I dunno how u got the idea that Nietzsche is a nihilist, on the contrary I believe that his work is dedicated against it. Just look how hard he stands against his pessimist mentor, Sopenhauer.
Don't make me start quoting phrases etc about this
Nietzsche stands for looking at life with a sharp eye,leaving the bs that humanity has constructed behind,evolving into something greater; in general -despite his severe and relentless critisism on so many levels- he's a philosopher who gives great value to life.

I mean, his most fierce accusation against christianity,priests etc etc is that they are against life,they have the instinct of death in their ways, how could he possibly not be a person who greatly appreciates it.

I even remember him arguing in favor of what asdf2000 wrote here about nihilism/pessimism being an intellectual depression somewhere

I never said Nietzsche is a nihilist. However he does go onto explaining nihilism very well. He does state nihilism is a problem and to be honest it looks like he was at one point in his life very nihilistic. However he overcame it to what he would describe as a "superhuman" if you will.
