>tfw no translation for your language
Why won't anyone translate him? I saw some amateur translation on Reddit, but when the fuck are we going to get professional translation?

Pessimism is easy. Facing the truth about the void and darkness of our existence is something one can do with little effort. Like admitting that gravity exists and falling. Optimism is HARD. Optimists have to go through the tricky ordeal of fooling themselves every day with the extensive use of bluepills, delusions, and consumerist distractions. There's reigned in a neverending race to outrun simple facts and obvious conclusions. It is only thanks to these fervent heroes that mankind continues to exist.

No you didn’t. These memes are designed to try to bring people down. Ignore it all. Don’t start believing you are depressed or you will be.

Time to become a Sprachchad and learn German.

I have recently read Mainländer (in German) and I can tell you that he's terrible actually. His thinking is just not good, flawed in too many ways, in the end he's literally wrong about everything. He saw himself as a succesor of Kant and Schopenhauer but did not understand either (it seems to me).
Yes, his idea of God as unity dying and thery creating the universe as multiplicity is kind of cool but it's just a few sentences inbetween the technical stuff where he gets that poetic. So my advise: Don't fall for the meme and forget about Mainländer, there's a reason he's obscure und irrelevant.

And read Ludwig Klages instead, who is like ten times better in any way and not pessimist also but a very good and inventive philosopher
