Convincing yourself that everything is meaningful is also a self fulfilling prophecy.
I understand what you're saying, and they are certainly valid thoughts. I might even agree, largely. But there's not much objective in what you expressed.
- ricardobeat 10y agoYou mean to say his point is meaningless?
- betenoire 10y agoit's kind of a tautology. Convincing yourself <of anything> is a self-fulfilling prophecy when it determines your next actions.
- hinkley 10y agomaybe 'self-defeating' would have been a better choice of words.
- humanrebar 10y agoWell, not quite. Showing up is half the battle, maybe. But that sentiment assumes the choice of battle is correct. I thought some more factual objections would help clarify whether this is the battle to show up for.
