Indifference - How to give a fuck

[Dildo]

Some people seem so passionate; about their god, their political party, their choice of diet, their ethical affiliation. All of these things seem to provide people with meaning and here I am sat on the sidelines wondering why everyone is so mad.

What do you care about anon? Why does it matter to you? I see everyone so enthusiastic about something and I just dont get it. I'm not some incel hikikomori, I have a partner and I recognize and accept my duty to keep them happy. Why do you care so much anon?

Am I a psychopath or are snowflakes just too sensitive?

If all your needs are met then maybe indifference is within normal range of feeling? But most people have a hole in the hearts that can never be filled, or a sense of entitlement, or a sense of justice... Things like that needle them on, provoke them into "caring" even though it might be cringe and their stomachs are full.

 

[Pope Fucker]

So edgy it's almost inspiring.

 

[Pocket Dragoon]

Not giving a fuck gets easier with age, if you just go with it.

It's either that, or alcoholism.

 

[Damn Near]

Get a hobby, homo

 

[Exorbital Columnations]

Naw, everyone else is just pretending to care about things to make you feel inadequate.

 

[Sm0kINHaZefEEliNBlaZEd]

At least you exemplify your name.

 

[The Last Stand]

In other unrelated news, a man that goes by the name of @Fagatron causes a mass shooting at a local Wal-Mart, injuring 5 others. His manifesto from the alt-right, transphobic site, Kiwi Farms, illustrates his lack of empathy towards any particular cause. Or more specific, "not being able to give a f***". Police are investigating this as an act of domestic terrorism.

It's part of having a goal faggot, doesn't matter what your end game is, some things complement your biggest ambition, religion is the most understandable example in the search of leadership and power.

 

[ScamL Likely]

The fact that you made this thread shows that you care about your "inability" to care.

Go be a nihilistic EMT or something, it's not too hard and you will at least be doing something useful while you are indifferent about everything.

Did you quoted the wrong person or just didn't understood what I wrote?

my duty to keep them happy

how big is her penis?

being indifferent to everything is normal for a man with a healthy testosterone level. don't worry about it. as long as there's still something you can mildly enjoy like sex or video games you're fine.

 

[Just a fag]

go on anti-depressants, my dude.

 

[Ivan Shatov]

I care about puzzles.

The culture wars present us with many in the media, politics, education, and other forums. It's hard, I see something that makes me wonder then I have to figure out why.

The people who say they care about social issues are mostly projecting an image of sensitivity and intelligence to gain social advantage.

Just remember, at the end of the day, they are self-interested and their currency is attention. You can play that game, but there are better ones to play.

If we're done with the opening shitposting, would like to add some input from a similar point of view.

True nihilism is impossible, at least until the moment before suicide. Basic human hard wiring prevents you from caring about literally nothing. As much as you try, you will always care about something. This isn't to invalidate nihilism however, as you can still be pretty partially nihilistic, I think it's just important to get the distinction between true nihilism and partial nihilism out of the way first, so from here on I'll refer to partial nihilism as nihilism because you can't ever reach a full uncaring nature.

I would consider myself a nihilist. I find it hard to care about most things in daily life. The world, other people, myself, its just too much of a drag. It's hard to justify getting out of bed, to justify doing many things. And that is true, there is no actual inherent justification. Life is meaningless, there is no god and we were not created with an inherent purpose. Edgy on the surface, but how you use that knowledge is up to interpretation. Some decide, well if there is no purpose, I'll create my own purpose. You can live with nihilism that way. Some decide, well if there is no purpose, then fuck it, might as well live day by day doing whatever entertains you. That's certainly how I deal with it. Finally, some decide, if there is no purpose, then there is no reason to live, and would rather end it. Try and think which category you fall into, because they are very different world views and you don't have to be cynical to be a nihilist, even if I am one I know that from seeing others.

Nihilism is strange because, while I claim to not care about anything or most things, I still find myself laughing at jokes, enjoying vidya from time to time, getting enthralled in consoomerism and media, posting about politics on this website. One thing that keeps me going is enjoying good music actually. If I didn't care, I wouldn't feel the need to be passionate about things. I don't care for relationships, for sex, for other people, for myself, for the world, for the future, but I can take some care in the day. You can enjoy some good food, some laughs, many things and still go on living. You might not like living, but dying sure as hell isn't a good option either. When I was younger, through the goggles of edge I almost thought I was a sociopath with how little I cared, but it turns out that if you look you do care about some things. If you are doing something as your duty, you care about it. If you didn't, why are you doing it? Why not just abandon your partner and kill yourself? Why even post at all? There is a semblance of care within everyone and no amount of disillusionment will change that.

If at the end of the day, you really still can't find an answer, consider why you're on KiwiFarms. I would say you're taking the clown world approach as most people would call it now, you recognize the world and life sucks, and rather than mope about it you laugh at it. Laugh at how shitty everything is, at how we aren't even a speck in the scheme of the universe, not even a second on the calendar. We might amount to nothing, but having the ability to think means you've got the ability to satirize the nature of it. If anything, just take some joy knowing that you know the reality of the situation. As much as I hate myself for it, I find freedom in nihilism and not being chained to dumb beliefs and moral quandaries, I find myself thinking, better to face grim reality than to live in blissful ignorance.

There are things in this world which bring me incredible joy. For one, music. Specifically classical music. Whenever I want to have my mind blown while completely sober, there are multiple recordings of amazing masterpieces. It might seem cliche, but Beethoven's 9th symphony (all four movements), Beethoven's 3rd, 4th, and 5th piano concertos, Chopin's Ballades, etudes, preludes, and his two concertos, J.S.Bach's contrapuntal masterpieces.

Another is quality food. Eat well. Your body and mind will feel better.

 

[Marco Fucko]

I am also indifferent to many things, but throughout my life I've recognized it as a coping/defense mechanism, because I tend to run through likely series of events in my head and understand that a lot of shit just isn't worth getting that worked up about. I basically take the view @kūhaku takes, kind of, in that I just kind of try to live life. Yeah it doesn't matter, ultimately, but if you take that as a final answer without moving forward on it the logical action is suicide. While that isn't specifically bad to me, I also don't particularly care to pull the trigger.

So do what you want because a pirate is free, and you are a pirate.

[He Who Points And Laughs]

As for politics, fundamentally I just want people to decide their own fate without asking me to pay for it. I like roads, so I'm not an anarchocapitalist, and if something works better I'm all for it... which makes me a pragmatist. The thing about pragmatism is that it actually works. Amazing.

But this makes me rather indifferent politically. From my perspective I find the right and left tiresome, but the right slightly less so until they try and justify their positions with religion.

I mentioned music and food being vital, and they are. But also experience. Go out and live your life. Travel, learn new languages, have sex with beautiful women, see amazing things, learn new skills, push yourself to be an even better version of you.
