>I think the lights winning.
Just another pessimism bait and switch. The world is infested with evangelical optimists and so few artists have the balls to follow philosophical pessimism to its conclusions. They always pull the rug out at the end with some bullshit toothless appeal to hope.

He says "once it was all dark" which implies some kind of progressive theodicy where the universe sucked at first and is slowly getting better. Pizza probably does not have any actual idea of what he means by this but I guess it was a good line
it isnt getting better, stop being delusional. consciousness is fundamental malignantly useless.
Says who? Some dingus on the internet?
think for yourself idiot, stop waiting for Dad to tell you the answers.
He's quoting Thomas Ligotti, babby incel's first foray into antinatalism. Ligotti is a failed Horror author but wrote a book exploring antinatalism called The Conspiracy Against The Human Race. It's shocking at first and gets you thinking deeply about how consciousness was a mistake but then you realize with time how gay it really is.
Yeah Ligotti, the failed horror author who Pizzolatto blatantly plagiarized for his hit TV series and then pussied out at the finale because he didn't comprehend the philoposhy that made his show interesting in the first place and decided to appeal to optomist pig normies instead
Ligotti is pretty well respected as a horror writer isn't he? I liked the one about the factory in the middle of the field
the anon is obviously a facetious moron whos never had a deep thought
>consciousness is fundamental malignantly useless.
Said conciousness. Delete your own map, homosexual
predictable 'kys' retort to pessimism. Not an argument. Non-being isn't the same thing as dying. yawn.
You claim that non existence is preferable to existence, are you some sort of pessimist who believes in an afterlife or something? You're dying anyways, accelerate the process if you hate being so much
suicide is just another pointless affirmation of the Will. This isn't about me, it's about consciousness being MALIGNANTLY USELSS. Why do you optimists always get so violent when someone tells you the truth and disturbs your delusions?
Suicide is an afirmation of the Will but so is this shitflinging match between us. Come on now, affirm it once and be done with it.
I'm not getting violent but I can't take your gloomy worldview seriously, specially when none of you are consistent, I'd rather you not have a nice day, I'm just trying to make you realise it's nonsense to deny life and keep clinging to it.
>Suicide is an afirmation of the Will
Will is a metaphor. You can commit suicide if you want it
I'm right, I'm only hardwired to keep living. That is part of the horror of consciousness. That the malignant part. You have no argument. Keep rolling in the mud pig. We are both puppets, I just have my eyes open.
But people still kill themselves, so no you're not.
why do you care
>I'm right, I'm only hardwired to keep living. That is part of the horror of consciousness. That the malignant part. You have no argument. Keep rolling in the mud pig. We are both puppets, I just have my eyes open.
I'll keep living as a clear-eyed pessimist while you wallow in the mud of self-deceptive happiness like a human pig.
>clear-eyed
>self-deceptive
>pig
For a materialist you certainly love categoricals
You could argue that life is an improvement over inanimate matter and Sapient/intelligent life is an improvement on dumb life. If we make super AIs or something maybe that could be another step forward idk.
But this is really just a matter of complexity rather than values. I suppose it affords the possibility of good? As I said Pizza does not elaborate at all on what this is supposed to mean
step forward to what?
In this case complexity would be good in itself I guess.
>he got filtered by absurdity
lmao
Based. Anons here are too full of themselves to admit Camus was right about everything
>"once it was all dark"
Yes and eventually it's all gonna be dark again for eternity. Also the light brought mostly suffering with it.
I don't believe in the heat death of the universe tbqh. Just doesn't seem kino
Based denialist. Just believe in whatever makes you feel good anon, nothing matters anyway.
>nothing matters anyway
This is true. Might as well try to have fun before the end. This is why I feel no shame from jerking off to anime porn.
It is what it is. I sometimes really wish Christianity was true though.
He just saw whatever he needed to believe the lie everyone else tells themselves. For better or for worse, True Detective S1 is about the lies people tell themselves.
Pessimism lost once again to the comforting delusion of optimism. Many such cases. Once they have their carrot in sight, there's no turning back.
He's unironically right. Look at human history as a whole and it's a general upward trend.
No, the world history is not progress, but rather a slaughterhouse. Evil and destruction remain permanent possibilities.
It's both. Shit was fricked, still is fricked, but humans as a whole are generally more altruistic and give more of a shit about not being complete maniacs now. Slavery isn't (openly) practiced in most nations on the planet and concepts like "animal rights" and "environmentalism" are a thing.
This is largely just because we have so much more wealth though. It's not like we chose to become nicer, it just became easier to be nice. Also our "nice" societies can't even manage to reproduce themselves anymore
This world is literally nothing but a biological death machine. Humans are entirely driven by subconscious biological mechanisms. Aside from technological advancements we are still essentially hairless apes who want to horde resources and frick.
And yet all surveys of general happiness have been going down over time. We are richer and more miserable than we have ever been.
>craft your whole show around plagiarizing another author
>say his beliefs are all wrong in the final 2 minutes
Is there a bigger hack on the planet than Pizzalatte?
>"I am a true pessimist, nothing matters"
>"then have a nice day"
>"Ha, just what I would expect to hear from a delusional optimist"
You aren't smart or cool or edgy you are just a boring homosexual with nothing interesting to say.
Nihilists still haven’t recovered from smiling friends
where "hope" is used in modern films it's supposed to actually mean "God", but Hollywood israelites would never allow that. these themes are ancient, they are older than history themselves and faith is inexorably linked to god.
>I am upset that "philosophical pessimism" isn't followed to it's logical conclusion
how do you even get to be this mentally ill?
You wouldn't get it
He nearly died give him one outburst of emotion at least, jeez.
no, it's an artistic copout to appease the masses.
pessimism simply dosent sell. pigs prefer the mud.
Russ was pessimistic due to his life up to that point, his near death experience and what he saw in his coma was an epiphany for him and made him believe in a higher power. If you want atheistic misery porn read a McCarthy book
Except it's perfectly valid to note that at some point the universe was entirely dark. So even if matter, light and meaning seem fleeting and helpless against nothingness, that simply isn't the case.
>Just another pessimism bait and switch. The world is infested with evangelical optimists and so few artists have the balls to follow philosophical pessimism to its conclusions.
Because it’s for teenagers and terminally online losers
He wasn't a philosophical pessimist. It was fake and gay. He lost his daughter. He had real problems unlike you homosexuals.
Real problems like mortality that we are all forced to be conscious of? thanks for proving my point that life is malignantly useless.
>This world is literally nothing but a biological death machine.
So?
>Humans are entirely driven by subconscious biological mechanisms.
So?
>Aside from technological advancements we are still essentially hairless apes who want to horde resources and frick.
So?
Any living pessimist is just an edgelord who thinks its a cool persona to have, the true pessimists are dead, they are not spending their time thinking of excuses or trying to win internet debates. Therefore any argument with one is pointless, since you are arguing with a deluded roleplaying pseud or a teenager (not mutually exclusive).
we are programmed to survive and a lot of people still kill themselves
free will doesn't exist
>nothing changed
>children are still being kidnapped, trafficked and raped by rich israeli-related men
