As Emil Cioran once did not say: "Be careful not to fall out of time" in his book the fall out of time (I forgot what he meant by that, but it is a good book)
Nietzsche is not a Nihilist. He hated Nihilism, you can see this in his ideas of the Hollow Man and the Last Man. His phrase "God is dead and we have killed him" is referring to exactly what you are talking about in this video. People used to have their world view and morality defined and served on a predefined plate by the Church. All he is saying is that we have moved beyond this stage to some extent. Which CAN open the door to Nihilism, but can also leave us free to make up our own mind about right and wrong. In a way this is scary, but part of his philosophy of the Übermensch (or superior/super human), is to look at the world for all it's warts and flaws and still choose to not just see the beauty in it, but strive to make it better for us and those we share it with
Why Absurdism Is not My Favourite Philosophy =) Imo it is actually important to consider that there is an objective reality, with specific things that take place, others don't ect. I think that even if some behaviours are effectively absurd according to certain metrics that seem objective to us, our enviroment in itself is not intrinscly absurd (untill proven otherwise) and should not be considered as such. imo here's the path you're kinda taking rn : absurdism -> sophism -> social natural disaster -> super vilain irl -> mere chaos it is not to be taken too seriously jic xD and most of these steps can be taken in both directions anyway, and also ppl taking this path tend to settle down and not go down the whole thing EDIT : but realizing human behaviour/condition is absurd is freeing for sure
Perhaps it is necessary to clarify which meaning of the word "philosophy" you are using. Philosophy is primarily the rational consideration (within the limits of logic) of aspects of reality that are not completely understood. It involves using critical thinking to construct hypotheses that better explain reality. It is also often used to refer to the personal worldview held by a particular philosopher or group of philosophers. Reality can only be considered absurd when framed within Idealism. However, Idealism is an irrational conception of reality.
One must imagine Sisyphus happy!
