>Eren Yeager is a slave to freedomWhat the fuck does that even mean?
>>288190019just like you're being obsessed with pusssy, you're a slave to pussy.
>>288190019He's a slave to the idea of it and can never truly reach it.
>>288190019The idea of freedom, he has made himself incapable of letting it rest, made himself incapable of feeling free, because he will never stop, never live the life he wanted that freedom for. It doesn't matter if he ever becomes free, because the things that keep him bound are no longer external, but the very thoughts that demand he keep fighting for freedom
>>288190019There is no real freedom. You're always bound by laws of nature, society or just the state of mind. The chase will consume you if you get obsessed by it, resulting in a slave-like state
>>288190019its just a deepity, it sounds clever but its not really a paradox or anything. it just means he's going against his own principles for the greater good, like a pacifist waging war for the sake of peace.
>>288190019Not as much a slave to the thing itself, but to the idea of it.
>wow he's so obsessed with being free instead of being a slave that he doesn't realize he's a slave to freedom!It's the kind of 2deep4u shit a 14 year old would come up with.
>>288190109>Laws of natureIdk being a skeleton caterpillar is pretty much breaking that>Society Which he destroyed. >State of mind Couldn't he just have destroyed the titans powers like he did with the other shifters had he not been killed?
>>288190019The pursuit of a value being principally antithetical to its fruition.
>>288190019>Dostoevsky once wrote: “If God did not exist, everything would be permitted”; and that, for existentialism, is the starting point... >...we have neither behind us, nor before us in a luminous realm of values, any means of justification or excuse. – We are left alone, without excuse. That is what I mean when I say that man is condemned to be free. Condemned, because he did not create himself, yet is nevertheless at liberty, and from the moment that he is thrown into this world he is responsible for everything he does. The existentialist does not believe in the power of passion. He will never regard a grand passion as a destructive torrent upon which a man is swept into certain actions as by fate, and which, therefore, is an excuse for them. He thinks that man is responsible for his passion. Neither will an existentialist think that a man can find help through some sign being vouchsafed upon earth for his orientation: for he thinks that the man himself interprets the sign as he chooses. He thinks that every man, without any support or help whatever, is condemned at every instant to invent man. As Ponge has written in a very fine article, “Man is the future of man.” That is exactly true. Only, if one took this to mean that the future is laid up in Heaven, that God knows what it is, it would be false, for then it would no longer even be a future. If, however, it means that, whatever man may now appear to be, there is a future to be fashioned, a virgin future that awaits him – then it is a true saying. But in the present one is forsaken.- Jean-Paul Sartre, Existentialism is a Humanism, 1946
