Why didn't he kill himself?
>>24716376suicide affirms the will
>>24716376Bro, get that depressed mentally ill bald faggot with his chopped beard out of my board. How was a 70 y/o this depressed, unaccomplished. Nigga was acting like teenage girl. No wife, no children, no family, nothing of value. Get him outta here, I don't want to see him on /lit/ anymore.
You know you can just read his books right?Also whats with all the schopenhauer posting lately? I see him more than Nietzsche here lately
>>24716376>"It will generally be found that, as soon as the terrors of life reach the point at which they outweigh the terrors of death, a man will put an end to his life."His life didn't reach such a point. Once your life reaches that point, no amount of abstract philosophy or even religion can save you
There´s no point in it once you make it past 27
>>24716376>>24716382>>24716395>>24716421
>>24716394He could, but that would require more effort than you spoon feeding us a response.
>>24716376Because no philosopher in the existence, now or ever, actually lived what they preached. It was all whiners and schizos all along, a bunch of cucks the whole lot of them. Not even Stirner went all the way with his conclusions it seems.
>>24716471Truth exists independent of personality.
>>24716421that's crazy
>>24716394recession indicator or some shit like that
>>24716376As Nietzsche said, he lived off of pure seething hatred for his enemies and enjoyed every bit of it.
>>24717283Schopenhauer enjoyed fame in his old age which he predicted that he will get and never worked a day in his life. While Nietzsche died in misery as a gay retard. So much for these life afoormers.
its the same reason religions deny suicide, it's ineffective. when you understand that there are bigger things going on than your moment-to-moment comfort, you will intuitively understand why putting your momentary comfort over them is retarded and gets you nowhere
>>24716395Von Hartmann contended that collective suicide was quasi-religious if I'm not mistaken
>>24716382The hell it does. It stops the will from doing anything, how does that affirm it?
>>24718184schopenhauer doesn’t talk about ‘the will’ in an everyday sense. it’s an underlying, blind striving force. suicide acts because life’s pains outweigh its pleasures for that being. that calculation is still an expression of will.
>>24716388he had kids but they died in infancy
>>24716388He wrote his magnum opus when he was 25-30 years old you retarded faggot.
>>24718184>he thinks he's just a materialist atheist comforted by the delusion you have a "self" attached to "this body" and "this ego"
>>24717633That was Ulrich Horstmann, not Eduard von Hartmann.
>>24716388He was the most famous philosopher in Germany until World War 1. He was born in wealth and died in wealth and never worked a single day in his life. Studied in top-tier schools and with private tutors, traveled Europe when he a teenager, became a polygot in his early 20s(French, Latin, Greek, Italian, Spanish, and even transliterated Sanskrit), completed his PhD at the age of 26, published his magnum opus at 30, use to hang out with Goethe who predicted his genius, enjoyed fame in his old age with the likes of Wagner sending him fanboy letters etc. Now kill yourself roastie.
>>24718420Honestly youre glazing a bit, but genuinely pretty impressive for Schop
>>24716388when you see tweets that make you physically cringe and wonder who's liking those, this is the person.
>>24716388He was not an incel
>>24718420>born in wealth and died in wealthI will now ignore everything he ever said
>>24716388>>24718614I’m tired of all the people trying to dismiss him by portraying him as some loser incel. He had one of the best life a philosopher (or any other intellectual) could dream of. Not to mention this guy had a literal AFFAIR with a hot popular actress of that time called Caroline Medon
>>24718391Didn't they have similar ideas regardless?
>>24718954Schopenhauer had his share of sufferings too but it's not like you care.
>>24716376I do not know who this is, and I only know good authors, but I'll still comment.Sure, prior to being forced into existence via birth/cloning/whatever you get to enjoy a blessed calm of non-existence, if you're not a reincarnate. But after your first trial period, once you hit that vortex of light, no. :)Non utopiaic beings do not kill themselves because they are barely sentient enough to sense the punishment they will suffer if they do. All your notable ancestors within this purgatory-ish softcore-hell pushed on, why should you get off the hook? Hmm?Keep struggling until heaven is made, pussy
>>24719892>I do not know who this is,what a horrible way to start your postabsolute retard
>>24719892>>I do not know who this isLurk the fuck moar newfaggotAt least lurk 2 years before making a post
>>24719892I'm so tired of zoomers anymore, they're so fucking stupid, even as grown up adults. . .Ever since they became teenagers they have been annoying, and more annoying than ever once they hit their 20's. They have nothing interesting to say about life (nor have any observations about it) and dismiss anything that requires more than a mere surface level view.I mean look at you, posting a Metal Gear Solid reaction pic, while saying brash and obsequious comments probably made by other people, while still retaining a mere childish view, all while not knowing a philosopher like Arthur Schopenhauer.Either actually read up on these people, (and I mean purchase their books and read it alone) maybe ask a few questions on /lit/ to help LEARN or CLARIFY, and understand their philosophy before making your own actual opinion, or just shut the fuck up and leave your obviously unacquainted opinions to yourself.
I don't care
>>24719970You got rage-baited, oldtroon.
