Title: The Meaningful Void Author: Jouissance Date: 1 September 2020 Language: en Topics: anarcho-nihilism, civilization, time
“We may very well all be fucked.
The environment- a charred husk
Capitalism- having commodified life itself
Humanity- fully swallowed by leviathan
The war- lost
And despite all this it is okay.
In this world, so much is ascribed to victory.
Progressivism is the hunt for ever greater victories,
But what is this ultimate pursuit of victory actually worth?
What is progress worth?
We sweat, we fight, and we bleed for progress.
Many, and in fact most of us, die on its sacrificial pyre
In service not of ourselves or the present instant but of the future,
That particularly ephemeral notion that has taunted humanity from the
horizon of the present for time immemorial.
As soon as we draw close to it, the future vanishes and jets back to a
new line of demarcation.
Truly, no individual ever experiences the future.
Because to experience it, the future must necessarily become the
present.
For all intents and purposes, there is
NO FUTURE.
Thus, victory and meaning are not for the sake of the future but are
instead conscious choices we have in every moment of our lives.
Acting with complete freedom and total clarity allows us to step outside
of the timestream of progress and into Messianic time,
A space outside of the collective fiction that constitutes our daily
lives
Where true human salvation lies.
This place is the void,
A space of unlimited freedom and play from whence we can beat back at
the very thing that created us, and the very thing that placed
Us into cages-
CIVILIZATION.
Against all odds, outside time, we can act with unconstrained, joyous
rebellion, to shatter the illusion.
As the tendrils of civilization drift away and we allow the resulting
void to envelope us, we may finally stand face to face with naked
Reality,
Time now finally flowing somewhere meaningful.
As we stare ahead, the void stares back
Like a polished mirror laying bare that which civilization for so long
has obscured,
Things domesticated humanity will never know.
Primary among these revelations is the knowledge that our worlds are in
our brains.
Consciousness is the universe.
It is the only true embodiment of past, present, and future.
When we wield this universe against civilization, each of us move closer
to ultimate and unconstrained self-realization,
Which is after all, the only true source of meaning.
And thus rebellion, constant and unrelenting rebellion, is the meaning
of life.
The future will always remain in the future, it is none of our concern.
Fight for now, because now is all there is.
Enter the meaningful void for
I am certain it will lead you along the right path.”
