    Wow, i've been struggling with depression. I come from a disfunctional family, i'm very lonely and have never felt part of anything or anywhere, growing up my parents had me going to a different school every single year and we move constantly. Now i'm by myself because they are really toxic, violent, there are drug issues etc, and i figured i don't deserve to be mistreated. But the loneliness really shatter me, this video made me look at my life in a very practical way, you know when you are depressed you don't think straight and everything seems sooo complicated. Man you just lifted my spirit like 60%, thank you so much!

      What is loneliness? You don't need this trash species called human-beings. I don't believe in friends and friendship, it's not exist just like love. Go watch movies, play games, listen to your favorite music and walk in nature. You won't be alone anymore.

      @@krisxu3581 When people wake up and realize that life itself is actually meaningless (it only matters while we are alive and then we all die, never to see the future of what we even put our efforts into), they usually never find meaning because well...people that know that life is meaningless know better than the people who live in a reality that is filled with delusion. Sure, you can brainwash yourself into being happy by distracting yourself and denying the reality of existence. It's definitely physically and mentally healthier but at the end of the day we all still have the same fate.

    life has no meaning. no life pre-exists. selfish people decide they want to create another life and that life is forced to conform with society. would it be so bad if people just stopped with the selfishness? nonexistant life cannot be missed and so eventually humans just cease to be and the world can heal itself

      I feel the same way about everything like, yeah I try to find meaning but it's all still pointless. I'm just going through the motions of life, living it, and ultimately waiting to die like everyone else is doing (despite the fact that most of them are so delusional that they can't accept that there really is no point because we all die anyway and we don't see the future that some of us worked so hard to contribute to.)

  • @carpettwizzler9432
    @carpettwizzler9432 6 років тому +7

    Life is a replicating molecule and an accident of physics and matter, with no purpose except "A survival mission that guarantees no survivors." And this only true purpose comes at the cost of every form of torture on earth. DNA created torture as a function to force life through this doomed survival mission, and DNA created deprivations which life is obligated to either fulfill, or the deprivations will cause life to suffer excruciating pain and death.
    This is not a matter of opinion, where anyone can just invent an imaginary purpose to keep your psyches sheltered from this reality of DNA, and make up disgustingly reckless insane reasons to perpetuate this. There is zero logical reason to keep spawning victims out of this torture-creating DNA life experiment, which you know very well has zero respect or even awareness for the welfare of life - and you know it has zero sane useful purpose whatsoever.

  • @melanitex1089

    Seaphobe quick question. What if a person genuinely enjoys being solitary (or mostly solitary) and has rejected your presented hypothesis of wanting/needing to belong to a tribe what would you describe that as?

    • @Seraphobe
      @Seraphobe  5 років тому +7

      Belonging to a tribe does not mean being surrounded by people. Let's say you're a scientist who has the idea how to create a cure for cancer, but the research might take 10 years. Your government believes in your ideas and provides you with a laboratory, food and other resources you might need. The next ten years of your life you spend alone in a laboratory, but you still work for your tribe, are taken care and appreciated by that tribe.
      People are great at creating stories and making imaginary connections, so we no longer need to literally be surrounded by a literal tribe, but we still need to feel that we belong to one. For some people it is enough to imagine that the whole universe is one big family that takes care of you and appreciates you. For most people that story is not sufficient.
      Many religious statements, for example, are aimed at creating fictional tribe for those, who don't have one. "we all are god's children", "god loves you", "you are doing god's work"...

      Seraphobe Those were the ones that I was thinking of too. It all depends on what each website determines as content that is "dangerous" or "promoting violence". According to their terms of service, it seems to me that LiveLeak would be your best bet.

    the meaning of life in a nutshell enjoyment is one of many existential existence meanings all leading back to life and death spoiler it's the meaning of life So the meaning of life is the infinite cosmic events infinitely perpetuating the creation of planets those planets creating life take earth humans make humans animals make animals and trees make 🌲 .etc and without death there would be an oversaturation of life itself the meaning of existential existence is the same being a doctor or soldier or just a simple editor like me effects myself or someone else by extending or shorting life with every action you or I take all quantum physics really even does is act like the Glu that holds this and every other infinite sub set of reality together think of this one as its own place with infinite sub sets of its own now imagine every single thought you have has its own version of that if broken down proves the existence of god budda Mohammed the power rangers and everything in-between starting from least to greatest in power scale I love knowing this because I not only lean towards life but I also know every show every game everything you see whatch or think about is something that is happening in real time for someone somewhere at this very second it makes tv and videos games so much more fun not to mention everything is about life and death don't believe me well take a human there body is constantly living and dying at the same time blood cells down to the atomic level it all dies and regenerates untill the body is no more and the energy that is in it is displaced into another reality your minds constantly learning new information even just thinking Wich you do all day every day even when asleep pushes out the old info and gives you a new perspective in some way for better or worse the meaning of life in this reality and all realitys have only one constant life and death and a never ending rollercoaster of living and dieing throughout all reality well if you read this far let me say thank for understanding the meaning of life and death and I hope this will bring some if any closer for those that can't see the big picture because life has so many little pieces stay safe and as always.. see you later space cowboys 🤠🐕🚀
