CMV: Purpose and Meaning are not important at all, and a desperate need to find either is generally a sign of low self w
I think human life is inherently "worth it", it needs no greater explanation. Your particular life doesn't need purpose or meaning, neither does humanity as a whole. Some people just need it to feel better about themselves because they don't value themselves just for existing.
My reason for this is mainly anecdotal. The only people I've ever seen who work to find purpose and meaning don't think life is enough as it is and are unhappy about it. There is also a lot of virtue signaling when people say something gives them purpose.
Lastly, I think life is beautiful as it is. It can be hard and crazy and exhilarating and mind numbing dull and horrible. And every single person is living a completely unique experience and story that never existed and never will exist again. I just think life IS the whole point. Everything else feels like a bit of a circle jerk.

Not gonna lie, the direction makes sense but the details are messy Not convinced this is settled yet.
If you zoom out, this depends heavily on what happens next and that’s why opinions are all over the place This could age very differently in a week.
Reaction: Too real..
From a practical angle, this solves one problem while creating another which makes the reaction pretty predictable That part stands out. That’s just my read on it.
On the surface, the wording alone shifts how people read this Feels like an opening move, not an ending. That’s the impression it gives me.

At first glance, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome and that tension shows up immediately That’s what changes the context. Hard to say where this lands long term. That’s the impression it gives me.
Putting bias aside, the way this is presented changes how it lands which explains why reactions are split That part stands out. Time will tell. At least from my perspective.
