After millions of years of evolution, we finally did it.

The most brilliant cognitive scientists have exited the lab with the ultimate creation- a perfect worldview that will bring world peace and personal happiness.

Many a worldview have been invented by our kind. However, all of them have fallen short for one reason or another. They all have either been debunked or have needed constant updates by progressive awareness and education.

They’ve all failed to guarantee peace and happiness for everyone everywhere time after time.

Until now, that is.

This rapidly trending worldview is the latest development in cognitive evolution, personal freedom, happiness, and the only solution to world peace-

Behold, constructive nihilism.

Wait, nihilism?! Isn’t that an “everything is meaningless” philosophy?

This is true.

In fact, the definition of nihilism is as follows:

Nihilism is a family of views within philosophy that rejects generally accepted or fundamental aspects of human existence, such as knowledge, morality, or meaning.

In the past, nihilists have been likened to anarchists, pessimists, and other negative labels mainly hyped by pop culture.

However, these outdated assumptions and stereotypes are far from what is accurate today.

Modern nihilists, for the majority, are some of the most educated, authentic, empathetic, and altruistic humans on the planet.

But before I promote constructive nihilism specifically, let me first break down the accuracy of the premise of original nihilism.

What nihilism gets right

All words are made-up. This is a foundational absolute truth.

Every single word that is spoken across the world was made up from air exiting an ape-like creature’s lung into an air-manipulated sound.

Every written word is merely an ape-like creature’s hand-scribbled symbols marked (now mostly typed) onto a surface or digital platform of some kind.

There is no intrinsic (natural) meaning to anything that has been lung-puffed or hand-scribbled into existence by ape-like creatures.

It’s all 100% made-up.

All the faiths, all the religions, all the doctrines, all the borders, all the laws, all the anthems, all the names, all the theories and constructs of time, and all of the everything that we live by day after day literally has zero natural meaning or inherent significance.

My words here are 100% made-up as well.

I am simply using our artificial communication symbols to bring awareness to the fact that everything only means as much as we allow it to.

What is intrinsically real and not made-up by ape-like creatures is the greater universe and the nature and other creatures that we can see and touch.

The universe gives zero fucks about our made-up stuff.

Nature gives zero fucks about our existence here on this teeny tiny dot of a planet.

We will die, we will recycle back into the earth, and we will never have been known to the black holes that go about swallowing entire planets.

We don’t matter. We are a blink of organic material.

Therefore life, at it’s intrinsic core, has no meaning or purpose. While this is indeed an uncomfortable reality, it is still, nevertheless, reality.

Those reading this that would disagree and believe that life does have (a) meaning would be drawing their conclusion/belief from past made-up words, or from past made-up concepts/ideologies, or from conjured up emotion or wishful thinking.

Thus, this indisputable absolute truth of nearly everything in our world being made-up from lung puffs and hand scribbles is and will always be the checkmate to any differing opinion.

So, any worldview outside of the nihilistic umbrella is, unfortunately, inaccurate and systematically baseless.

This is the way of the OG (original gangster for my older audience) nihilist, and it is logically infallible.

In fact, nihilism is the only worldview that can truly say, “I am right, and the rest of you are wrong/misguided/misinformed.”

Nihilism’s only worldview flaw…

Original nihilism ends right there- with “nothing truly matters”- and that’s fucking depressing as shit. The road to the perfect worldview for world peace and individual happiness and purpose hits a dead end in the research lab.

This is why nihilism hasn’t received many endorsements on its campaign trail. This is why haters have hated on it.

Not because it’s incorrect philosophy, but rather because it stops abruptly short of anything helpful going forward.

We are alive, and we do feel emotions, and we are curious.

Damnit, we need more than “life is meaningless. Have fun with that! (mic drop)”

Introducing the perfect hybrid – constructive nihilism

Constructive nihilism is a philosophical concept that suggests that, despite the inherent meaninglessness of existence, individuals can still find purpose and fulfillment in life.

It suggests that individuals can create their own meaning and values in a world that is fundamentally meaningless.

With the understanding that everything that dictates our lives is only made-up creature sounds and symbols, we can breathe in the fresh air of being completely released to create our own purpose and to give unique meaning to our existence.

By embracing the reality that everything is arbitrary, we then naturally become less and less affected by the made-up things that humans glorify, quarrel over or obsess over.

Now, by acknowledging the core accuracy of nihilism, the need for any kind of global conflict is fundamentally pointless. All religions/faith-based mindsets are made-up and carry zero authenticity outside of one’s imagination.

All war, political squabbles, ethnic indifference, cultural drama, and any offshoot ways of life stemming from religious ideology or cultural conditioning all become noise.

Pointless, meaningless noise…over made-up shit.

Constructive nihilism recognizes that while life (and all the made-up stuff so far) is inherently meaningless, life is also simultaneously incredible and full of opportunity.

We don’t have a natural purpose, but a constructive nihilist understands that we’ve evolved into possessing legs, feet, hands, and the extraordinary ability to navigate life via our senses.

Evolution clearly had survival in mind with our physical and neurological growth; however, I think it would also be fair to conclude that our evolutionary development also damn near begs us to create a purpose from scratch.

Don’t get me wrong, much of the artificial things that our species has created are fun and exciting and we can enjoy all the dopamine generated through/by/from it.

While the constructive nihilist does take part in human-created ways of life and in artificial things, this particular worldview is able to draw a hard cognitive line that refrains from going too deep, or caring too much about anything human-created.

If an exploding star or tree or dog isn’t giving a serious shit about it, then it’s a good bet that the constructive nihilist isn’t giving a serious shit about it either.

How constructive nihilism can bring world peace and personal happiness

I’ll explain this final section by listing out what a day in the life of a constructive nihilist entails:

• A focus on organic life and a genuine concern for the well-being of anything not created by ape-like creatures. Many, if not most constructive nihilists are humanists
• Continued education on realism and science. Though science is still comprised of made-up words, it does help differentiate what is accurate vs. inaccurate within our artificial bubble created thus far
• Zero adherence to religious ideologies, rituals, or faith-based ways of life. It’s all made-up fantasy from our ignorant predecessors. The human and intellectual capability is always respected, but any outdated faith-based ideology is rightfully not respected
• There is no inherent basis for morals. Acceptable and unacceptable behavior has evolved over the domestication of our species. With the rise of scientific awareness and human empathy, morals will continue evolve and redefine along with societal progression
• There is absolutely no reason for war of any kind. We just are. Life just is. Everything else is made-up. The small stuff can be figured out once we see that the big stuff (like religion, ethnicity, culture, land, name identity, etc) carries no natural meaning or death-worthy significance for that matter
• Childhood conditioning and/or cultural conditioning is deconstructed and reevaluated. You start over as a blank canvas by editing out artificial ideologies and inaccurate worldviews and repaint yourself with realism, logic, and reason
• A constructive nihilist is also a considerate hedonist. This is one who pursues life’s pleasures via all the human senses without being bound by ape-like creature made limitations and superstitions. However, a considerate hedonist also remains in tune with an awareness of how decisions may affect the lives around us

 

The constructive nihilist is maxing out their one existence with adventure, experience, open-mindedness, self-improvement, inclusion, and pleasure.

For everything is truly nothing, and through that awareness, life becomes anything and everything.

The irony is beautifully and perfectly liberating.

There’s no need for any more made-up words and symbols here, for the bottom line speaks for itself-

The world would, without a doubt, be a much happier and peaceful place with 8 billion constructive nihilists roaming around.
