Is it philosophically possible NOT to be depressed after accepting these facts?
It's pretty liberating tee bee ache
I've seen these threads numerous times, is this a single gorillaposter who makes the same philosophy threads over and over?
>>1296597
Being wrong all the time must be depressing, yes.
>>1296618
It's actually a single gorilla.
The question is whether or not it's actually asking these questions, or parroting questions it's seen getting response elsewhere.
You made one simple mistake
>facts
>>1296637
>implying the opposite of free will is determinism
>>1296597
A fact on 4chan is an opinion in real life
>>1296637
There is some science to show that the brain makes decisions before it has all the facts or before consciousness puts forth a resolution.
>>1296597
>>romantic love is impossible
how so?
>>1296597
>>1296597
>philosophically possible
What's this even mean lmao
Yes you can be happy while acknowledging all of those things. If you have a good understanding of how your brain works you can just seek pleasurable and sustainable activities that will keep you satisfied.

yeah this
basically dont smoke, exercise, eat as healthy as you can, have sex, read, and whatever else you like, i like playing guitar and singing for example.
You need to have a job tho and thats the biggest problem of life, must of the time job doesnt let you do all of those things No one would be asking stupid ass questions if they didnt hate their jobs, so good luck with that.
You can also take pills.

Are we talking about that Atlantic article?
Nietzche was right.
>>1296597
>Romantic love is impossible
That is demonstrably, and totally untrue.
Romantic love is probably the realest thing in the universe.
>>1298509
It's also a shit ton of hard work.
>>1296597
Yeah its called actually studying philsophy and not the 18th Century wankery
Read Aristotle and you will see that the opposite of every point you make is actually true
>>1296597
>>there is no god
probably not, but how is that depressing?
>>free will doesn't exist
How so? If there's no god, nothing is predetermined is it? The universe is running its course but on your tiny human scale you have free will over your decisions if you're not a cuck
>>objective morality is an illusion
Who ever said it existed, and why would it be necessary?
>>romantic love is impossible
t. virgin sperg
>>life has no meaning
eh, there's no meaning to the fact that you exist, certainly, and if you don't believe in god it's all an absurd accident of chance that life exists, but it's all about giving life a purpose, not trying to find out its "meaning"
>>your consciousness is merely a passively suffering observer of events over which you have no control
speak for yourself faggot
You're clearly an influenceable youth who accepts everything they've been taught despite trying hard to be edgy. You're a neet with the mentality of a wagecuck. Or is it babby's first shroom bad trip comedown? Sure, life is pointless and you can't control everything, but thinking that morality is necessary and that you have to fit the mold to live is absurd
>inb4 "lol the world's your oyster brah"
>>1296597
step 1. Embrace the terror you have realized to be the truth
step 2. Figure out how to go on meaningfully

Get out of my head Ishmael!
