What is the purpose of humanity? What is our sole purpose as an individual?

What is the purpose of a mountain? It doesn't have any, it just exists because natural processes and shit. Same thing for humans and everything else

To practice virtue, that is the good life.
>babby's first existentialism

to seek answers until perfection is reached, and maybe eventual annihilism within humanity itself.

but that's the interesting part, because with humanity, there can never be perfection.

it's an endless need for intelligence at best, still a good predisposition though

>this doesn't sound nice, better make shit up and pretend the universe loves me and wants me to be happy

the universe loves you and wants you to be happy

NO
DELET

Fight marxists.

marx does have a point. if you really understand marx what he wants is the absolute justification of the transactions in society, and by payment according to luxury and not by the prices of the things it was made from, you're promoting money that is inefficient (in the form of gains)

now before you justify that the USSR was marx' it wasn't, it was a bastardization of the means that lead to an authoritarian rule, and consequently the starving Russia of then.

>this doesn't sound nice
Under your worldview you don't have any duty or responsibility and you're perfectly justified in behaving how you feel like, if there's a worldview that's immediately appealing to the broad public, it's yours, faggot.
>better make shit up
Didn't make anything up
>pretend the universe loves me and wants me to be happy
Why are nihilists always this stupid? Who says the universe does anything? The universe is just a set of things.

>marx does have a point
No, he doesn't. In fact, every claim of his that was falsifiable, has been falsified.

What was the purpose of the first self-replicating organism?

Would we necessarily have any more purpose than that?

he works on theory. everything that you were made to believe as marx' in history is not actually his in essence.

but I understrand the point as I believe marx' socialism in itself is utopian

>ideological unity
>efficiency
>equality

basically inhuman in ambition. nevertheless one thing to yearn for, which I believe was the essence of Marxism

that is a dream and not reality

keep believing your delusions kid

*unsheates fedora*
No teleonomy here kiddo
*teleport behind you*
bye...

Humanity has the purpose of all the other species, to survive. As an individual this is also the case, any other purpose is up to you, but be careful what you pick.
What if killing children makes me happy?
What if there is no God?
No, people just want to believe we do because we possess logic and rationale so that must mean we're different, but we're still organisms with flaws.

"duty" and "responsibility" are abstractions of biological drives

>Humanity
>specie

The meaning of life is that you are the temporary custodian of somebody else's genetics. Nothing more, nothing less.

We need some kind of useful paraphrase for "purpose"
I think something in terms of "reasons" or "oughts" works
>What is the purpose of humanity? = What reason does humanity have to exist? / What ought humanity to aim for?
>What is our sole purpose as an individual? = What one reason does an individual have to exist? / What one thing should an individual aim for?
This shows how bad any response like "nothing" or "reproduction" is
If it's "nothing," we have no reason to exist and nothing we should aim for, which means we have no reason not to do nothing or kill ourselves
If it's "reproduction," our reason to exist or proper aim in existing just lies in more existence like ours, which itself can't be justified or purposed with other than merely more existence, ad infinitum; so this is circular and vacuous, and collapses into the "nothing" response

Which came first: genes or their owners?

And?

Teach the AI to shitposting.

>what if killing children makes me happy

It can't

procreate

feel good is second

That's like asking the purpose of an oil slick. It ultimately has no purpose and in fact its the ill which purposes are to act upon.
