Was Albert Camus the original doomer? Absurdism is pretty doomer and he even has the doomer cigarette and the doomer look in general

He's a bloomer. People who think otherwise are idiots.

The Myth of Sisyphus focuses heavily on happiness.

The original Doomer was Mainlander philosophically, and Cioran in terms of aesthetics, Schopenhauer could've been but he chose the incel path, and Camus's entire philosophy is a giant cope to avert his eyes from reality.

Yeah I get the
>We must imagine Sisyphus happy
part, but why is this bloomer? Can it not be interpreted, that the fact [a man will have to adopt the 'delusion' that eternal, objectively void of meaning, fruitless struggle is what leads to meaning] is a more doomer approach? I feel there are some underlying assumptions that aren't entirely clear are self-evident in what you're saying, but correct me if I'm wrong. Is it a delusion or reality? It's not clear to me that there's a meaningful distinction.
