They haven't read it. And if they create post hoc justifications for whatever is written to make it match their own beliefs. There's an entire cottage industry of christcuck cope that reinterprets the bible to match modern values of all political orientations. Tbh it is a great grift if you can put up with the damage it would do to your self-esteem.

Have you considered the unpleasant (for you) possibility that some such authors actually mean what they say, believe it, and suffer not the least cognitive dissonance or negative self-image feelings over it?

>> No.17205491

>>17205465

Nihilism is itself another cope. Nihilism as thought by human subjects

Something being "cope" doesn't preclude its truth. Roughly speaking, this is the case for nihilism.

Some areas of my brain want to socialize. Some want to live. The part writing this sees the futility, but cannot control the entire thing. Part of my mind is causing my heart to beat right now. I am only given the illusion of control.

yes you can control the entire thing you coping retard. If you truly wanted it and knew it was the best option you would kill yourself. Suicide isn't a disfunction of brain chemistry, it's a rational conclusion. A lot of people would choose suicide over being tortured or out of categorical convictions (Cato) even though there's a good prospect of survival.
