Recently I heard the term Absurdist Nihilism and I’m kind of confused by it. I get that Absurdism is the belief that just like Nihilism there is no meaning to the universe except one decides to strive to find meaning while Nihilism does not and often leaves one feeling hopeless. From what I’ve seen about this joint term is that one who is an Absurdist Nihilist recognizes the futility of existing and that nothing matters but decides to go on anyways and enjoy the randomness of life. This just sounds like Absurdism to me if anyone has heard this term or even not and has opinions on it I would love to hear what you think. I’m enjoying the concept of Absurdism but I would like to identify myself properly before landing on one.
