this picture will never not be funny

just the absurdity of donald duck putting out that statement (which even makes some sense and fits donald’s overall depressed mood) and mickey mouse being the sly one and contradicting donald, coming out with the upper hand from the argument, is just so amusing.

Nihilism carries plenty of hope; it carries the hope that the values we make for ourselves

Not inherently. What you're describing is nihilistic optimism, that's the thing that I subscribe to, and you're pretending that it's the only kind that exists.

I do not get this "nihilism means you feel everything is hopeless" notion,

There are people who want it to be this way. Grifters and pessimists.

I cannot simply decide that idea is factually wrong simply because I didn't want it to be true,

You can, actually.

There are no facts to speak of here. You're bringing facts over the is-ought gap. If meaning cannot come from the universe itself, then you socially construct the universe you want to live in.

The universe that I choose to live in is a hopeful one. The universe that 4chan nazis choose to live in is a suicidal one.
