If you're proclaiming the meaning of life then it needs to apply to everyone. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Simply the fact is that the meaning of life is and forever will be a matter of opinion. No one ever finds the meaning of life. Their definition is going to be vastly different from the next person's.

And here's the cherry on top. Society means nothing. What am I bringing to society? Nothing. Because society doesn't care. Society is simply the product of numbers. Society was Humans banding together to do what they couldn't do alone. Essentially, the weak using their numbers to become strong. And it shows. Scientifically proven that the larger our numbers become in an area, the lower the intelligence of the entire group becomes.

And this is why we have wars, and religion, and a capitalistic society. Because at the top of the board, are people pulling the strings. And they can lead everybody around as they please. They could run everyone to their deaths and the crowd wouldn't even see it.

You know who really got things done? The thinkers. The outcasts. The people alone in their intelligence who were shunned in their age,  scoffed at and mocked. And, years later, long after they were gone, suddenly, they were right. The crowds finally caught up, like that one fat kid in gym class.

Society does not care about what you can bring to the table, and it never did, and it never will. Society, as a whole, will never return what you give. All it ever accomplished was two things.

1. It allowed those who couldn't do things on their own to flourish, contributing to the great effect that we know as mob mentality, dulling and diluting the intelligence of people so much that today, there's almost a line, a barrier, a class. Those at the bottom who turn the gears williingly, and those at the top who give the orders and control everything.

2. Make a bigger target for trouble. The bigger the footprint, the easier you are to spot. Every great empire we've ever made fell for one sole reason. It was too big in someone's eyes. What's the first thing any of our nukes target if they're launched? Population centers.

Society has little to give in return but in favor asks for your life and more. No sir, you've always been worth little to society, because society was founded off the numbers of people who couldn't do anything.

Uh, it's not the meaning of life but it was a good speech on sales.

Don't you mean your personal view of the meaning of life?
We all have our own.
What's true for you, isn't true for some of the others in here.

I'm not God, I'm just logical. There is no such thing as an afterlife.

It's not about love, it's not about happiness. It's about what you bring to the table. People don't care about how pure your heart is, or how much money you give to charity. They care about what you can do for them. Anyone who tries to 'fight the system' is a fool. It's about working in the system. People are selfish, sure. But that's not our fault; it's how we're wired. And nothing can change that. "Nice guy? I don't give a shit. Good father? Fuck you, go home and play with your kids."

Who agrees with this simple idea?

So what you're saying is that I should just forget about everyone else around me and be an egotistical, self-centered and selfish person right? I mean, screw human emotions, values and morals right?

Exactly, everyone else only exists as a tool to obtain your own happiness. Human emotions are definitely important, which is why you have to hide your selfishness to an extent, but values and morality don't exist.
