So....

absurdism and nihilsm are the same thing right? They sound like the same thing to me.

>> No.2441980

Absurdism proceeds from nihilism, it builds upon it, so you're pretty much right that it's the same thing, but you're wrong if you think absurdism is only nihilism because it follows from nihilism.

>> No.2441984

Not really...

Absurdism is an attempt to deal with an unanswerable question.

Nihilsm is a petulant and childish denial of the unavoidable.

What does Stirner say?

>> No.2441994

Absurdism is a way of dealing with the nothingness.
Nihilism is just an acknowledgement and acceptance of the nothingness.
