+                    <p>
+                        Nihilism is a philosophy many know of but few can truly understand. Its the moment you realize
+                        nothing you do will ever matter. When everything everyone knows and holds so close to them is
+                        so clearly a pointless game yet they think your crazy to point it out when they are the ones
+                        devoting so much to a big lie. <b>Until you can bluntly look at your school, work, family, friends,
+                        partner, pets, political party and ask yourself "why do I do any of this?" and realize it really
+                            wouldnt matter much if that all came to an end you still arent a nihilist.</b> As a nihilist you no
+                        longer see happiness and sadness, love and hate, life and death: you know the universe is just
+                        a bunch of atoms and particles and any other concept we have is blunt bullshit in its finest
+                        form.
+                        <br/><br/>
+                        <b>Those who dont understand nihilism may see this as sad when to a nihilism it is a source of
+                            blissfulness and numbness.</b> The real pain is caused by the conflict between the bliss of
+                        nihilism and the painful ways of non-nihilists, people who put importantness in meaningless
+                        things. Those who make it as difficult as possible to make yourself comfortable because they
+                        make up reasons you cant be comfortable and enforce through the force of pure size in numbers.
+                        <b>A true nihilist would never start a war</b> because they see no point in it, non-nihilists would
+                        abosutely start a war even over the most pointless bullshit. The flaw of the nihilist is they
+                        sure arent going to stop the war either. Let the people fucking die we often say. Luck they
+                        are I would say. Finally getting the type of peace and bliss that comes with death that no
+                        non-nihilist would never let happen during life.

+                    <h3>The absurdist cure</h3>
+                    <p>
+                        It is said when faced with nihilism there are three options:
+                    </p>
+                    <ol>
+                        <li>Suicide, life doesnt matter anyways so why not?</li>
+                        <li>Intelligencical suicide: giving yourself up to a religion, cult, or some other philosophy.
+                            Giving into the anti-nihilist lies and living a life of false meaning.</li>
+                        <li>Fully enbracing the absurd. You may not been freed from our shitty society but you been
+                            intelligencically freed. Now that you know no god rules over and nothing is holy your now
+                            only bound to practical limits instead of social ones. No more greater meaning in the position
+                            of rulers and authority, now you just gotta be careful not to get caught lol. No more tabboos to
+                            enforce social standards with no moral grounds.</li>
+                    </ol>
+                    <p>
+                        <b>The third option is the absurdist option. As a absurdist your still a nihilist</b> but now instead of not
+                        trying to stop wars because nothing matters you can fight against wars for that very same reason. Do
+                        everything a nihilist cant but always with the same reasons as a nihilist. As a absurdist you arent finding
+                        meaning or giving things meaning, your in a constant nonstop rebellion against meaning! When people think
+                        your crazy for calling society pointless you still walk away just like a nihilist but only now you also
+                        flip them off as you walk away. Every pointless action you do and the life you live knowing everything is
+                        pointless is a middle finger to the universe, a sign to the world it may fucking suck but your still alive.
+                        Its a insult to someone not there to hear it. <b>The world may have no meaning but reguardless you are going to
+                            kick it in the ass.</b>
+                        <br/><br/>
+                        Society is designed by anti-nihilists to keep people under the control of the rulers. Thats why everywhere
+                        is focused on option two. Thats why when people who see everything as pointless go into therapy they are
+                        always pushed toward option two. The very thing that defines religion and spiritual believes in our
+                        society is so heavily bias towards option two most people cant even begin to image the concept of people
+                        coming together in a type of absurd worship of option three. <b>When meaning is no more worship without meaning
+                            is now possible, religion without god or faith, morals without anything to uphold them.</b> It is in many ways
+                        like RumFoord's Church of God the Utterly Indifferent.
