What is The Meaning of Life?

After numerous failed attempts to make a coherent video worth uploading I decided to go back to basics and talk about a topic that bothered me for quite some time. So here it is... my opinion about the meaning of life.

Clips are from:

Mandelbrot set zoom by teamfresh

Indian farmer from Madhya Pradesh

Rick and Morty (2013 - ) season 01 episode 08 "Rixty Minutes"

Sesame Street (1969 - )

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005)

Lilo & Stitch (2002)

life has no meaning. no life pre-exists. selfish people decide they want to create another life and that life is forced to conform with society. would it be so bad if people just stopped with the selfishness? nonexistant life cannot be missed and so eventually humans just cease to be and the world can heal itself

Yes! You're back. Thank you, man. I love your videos -- you are of the rare breed of people who actually think for a change.

Wow, i've been struggling with depression. I come from a disfunctional family, i'm very lonely and have never felt part of anything or anywhere, growing up my parents had me going to a different school every single year and we move constantly. Now i'm by myself because they are really toxic, violent, there are drug issues etc, and i figured i don't deserve to be mistreated. But the loneliness really shatter me, this video made me look at my life in a very practical way, you know when you are depressed you don't think straight and everything seems sooo complicated. Man you just lifted my spirit like 60%, thank you so much!

4:04 holy galaxies, that 2nd reason for being depressed hit me really hard.
Thanks for creating this vid! You've helped your tribe in a meaningful way already, now it's my turn :D

finally, my favorite youtube channel is back! been waiting for your excellent, smart, critical, real, cutting through all BS, & thoughtful new video, and here it is now!

[drewmunny]

I miss this channel, man. I've watched each video several times-- hope you're well and I'd love to see you back someday

I truly don't value life or my childhood and wish I was put up for adoption instead. My family is dysfunctional and I wish I was surrounded by normal people who were so kind and nurturing. I know life has no meaning, but a better family would've done for me personally. 💯

I feel shit ... nothing makes me happy in this life ..

[captaincluster]

Good to have you back man, love your stuff 👍

What if I don't like people and I don't want to be part of something will my life be forever meaningless? Also good to have you back :)

Life is a replicating molecule and an accident of physics and matter, with no purpose except "A survival mission that guarantees no survivors." And this only true purpose comes at the cost of every form of torture on earth. DNA created torture as a function to force life through this doomed survival mission, and DNA created deprivations which life is obligated to either fulfill, or the deprivations will cause life to suffer excruciating pain and death.

This is not a matter of opinion, where anyone can just invent an imaginary purpose to keep your psyches sheltered from this reality of DNA, and make up disgustingly reckless insane reasons to perpetuate this. There is zero logical reason to keep spawning victims out of this torture-creating DNA life experiment, which you know very well has zero respect or even awareness for the welfare of life - and you know it has zero sane useful purpose whatsoever.

Well shit I gotta tell you that you're contributing with these types of videos, and now that I think about it, I might contribute the cause by preserving them and making subtitles for them :)

[adrianabraham]

Respect love and admiration for doing a video like this thank you so much for the contribution

[losaha]

you are a genius and deserve 1mil subs

[Akwatypus]

Great video! You do have a point there, as much as anyone else who's trying to answer the question.
I might give this some further thought, regarding my own minor struggles lately. I guess there's no harm in at least trying to see my situation in different perspectives, and scheduling myself some more time to think about things.

[JoJo-rgkt]

very good summation. you put a lot of thought into this and I certainly agree!

[trevagraham]

You should do a video on why should the human race continue to exist.

[Arch_Twisted]

I always said the meaning of life is progress. This is basically saying the same thing. Can you progress? Are you progressing? Are you helping other progress? Is your contribution to progress appreciated? ect ect.

[vumanhtung]

The purpose of life is trying to feel good as much as possible before it ends.

Seaphobe quick question. What if a person genuinely enjoys being solitary (or mostly solitary) and has rejected your presented hypothesis of wanting/needing to belong to a tribe what would you describe that as?
