>"One must imagine Sisyphus happy."

what did he mean by this

>>7910312

>I think it's necessary to make sense of life, otherwise why bother living?

camus would like to have a word with you.

>I'm a nationalist and communitarian

what led you to choose these in particular? How did you arrive at these from the essence of things? Or did you choose them arbitrarily/randomly?My question is just basically why these in particular.

> I think it's necessary to make sense of life, otherwise why bother living

you put the effect before the cause. in order to justify the effect of living you concoct your own truth? It is similar to saying

>I can only be happy if I have a 15 inch cock therefore I must have a 15 inch cock.

This is deliberate self-delusion.

did anyone else find it difficult to understand myth of sisyphus? and simultaneously have major disagreements with camus on how he deduces consequences to absurdism?

Is there any pre-requisite reading for

The myth of sisyphus?

I'm a noob and haven't read the greeks yet. Can I safely read this book or would it better if i postponed it until I go through some other literature first?

Pls help.

I was reading myth of sisyphus before my class began and a person I'm not too close with also came and waited next to me. He then said "wao edgy" in reference to my book. Im not sure what i should feel now.
