>>16176784
Are you an idiot?

Why are you talking about this sort of thing? You do realize AI is taking over, right? We won't be talking about Camus' intelligence in a few years but Machine Intelligence surpassing us in virtually every endeavor.

Check out
philosopherai.com

For example. AI can philosophize now, write essays, write poems and fiction better than humans can now. Tesla's stocks are riding and AGI's (Singularity coin) value rose 20% in one day. Get informed

second time I had to post this pic today.

Camus was based period just accept it. The fact that nihilist are still alive while posting about their depression on this board is absurd in itself.

Calling him a philosopher is disagraceful
He is a religious preacher and his "arguements" all rely on faith and his faith was only strengthened because, as you pointed out, he lived a life of pure hedonism, completely contradictory to his religious doctrine

it would make more sense to speak of the relationship between mind and body
mind isn't a subcategory of body and you can't substitute mind with body
